one piece.

I tried picking up the manga where I dropped the anime since the pacing wouldn't be as bad as the anime. It's slightly better than the anime but that doesn't say much, it's still shit, I made it through 10-12 chapters then I gave up.

You shouldn't even try. I remember you saying that you gave One Piece a 5 if I am right, but gave it a 1 because you felt like you wasted all the time watching that.

Hmm I made it through Golden Age, but it was because I really forced myself too and not interested at all to continue. Almost gave up at first few chapters, almost stopped every time I found women were portrayed in such disgraceful way.

Does that count?

Actually, I don't really like the new arc (about the 'good' demons and the whole 'movement' around Griffith). It seems to me, the story gets a little bit out of hand with no real direction. Considering the fact, that the serie is fairly old (it was started a bit more than one and a half month after my birthday, which makes it 24 years old), I would say it's time to come to an end - at least in my opinion.

Ah and basically every 'popular' manga has to be 'observed' with a good dose of skeptizism - I mean, if something appeals very well to the masses, it's likely that its contentn isn't that... ambitious.

Oh right I forgot Berserk. I lost all interest in it during the meh arcs after the golden age, it has no direction..

I don't think I particularly care if it ends or not. The Berserk fans will keep on suffering.

i dont think thats true at all, i think its more alonng the lines that when something is popular we set up expectations in our heads even unintentionally that can damage our viewing pleasure

BLAME!, after checking out the reviews for it and it being rated 10 by every person i decided to check it out. I lost interest after the first 15 chapters but forced myself to read it till the end to see if anything happens that would change my mind, nothing did. something about the little to no dialogue forcing the reader to infer whats happening just on the art, which looked pretty bad to me; the art had a lot of detail but the detail just makes it bad art with a lot of detail and not much else. I was completely lost with the story since most of the chapters were one or two pages of dialouge then MC gets in to a huge fight and kills a shit-ton of robots that crawl out every hole in the wall, which leaves the reader having absolutely no clue what just happened. can some one who hass read this manga tell me I'm wrong since I'm still confused how everyone is rating this a 10/10 and calling it a masterpiece, did i miss something?

Yes, you missed the part where you're supposed to try understanding what happened instead of just skimming through.

'Attack on Titan'
-The storyline is poor
-The characters arent unique... all copied from various popular manga/VN/anime

Are you at the latest chapters? I completely disagree. because we are getting a lot of character development now. Even eren is not the one dimentional fool as everyone was speaking. Well it's your opinion. The story line is poor? Yet a lot of people are reading this manga that has awful art style? You couldn't be more wrong about the story. Just look at the art style u think people are reading this manga for the artsyle then? lol also seeing your top 5 favorite manga, I can see why u don't fancy attack on titan. Your prefense is really different from what attack on titan is. I find it that people who llike manga like, berserk, claymore, evangellion and other manga/anime in these category will like attack on titan.

^Yes. But only because of the fans. It's not like I 'can't stand' it, it's more like the flaws are too apparent for me to ignore them.

Well, I don't necessarily dislike it for being popular but I don't think it deserves the praise: Black Jack. Don't get me wrong, I like Black Jack, but I think calling it a masterpiece especially compared to Tezuka's other works like Hi no Tori is a bit much. Especially since Black Jack was directly influenced by the episodic style of Hi no Tori.

This. It's an enjoyable lil' read but I see more and more people claiming it to be "masterpiece" with "deep storytelling that only some can appreciate"

The art style looks bad at first but after a few chapters, people get used to it. But I see why people get turned off by the art. And the MC is very likable, even in this site he's the third most favorite characters.

Sorry about that. I think I had added that when I was on older chapters. The new ones... are well, just overrated crap.

I think you do, though. Your IQ is so high you've evolved beyond the transcendental subject to perceive reality above human reason. Common plebeians will always say you are insane for your ideas not making sense, but it's merely because they can't comprehend you, which is why I think we should create the Tsudecimo Award and give it to you every year so that people will acknowledge you as the genius you are rather than a crazy man. Soon people start raising statues for you across the globe and start a new religion, with you and Tite Kubo as their gods. When the whole world is finally under your enlightened guidance, you'll lead humanity to the glory of conquering the stars.

You are not alone my friend. I really don't like Attack On Titans, and One Piece, I think it is overrated, maybe. For Nisekoi, it like a Line Chart, its goes up and down, there is good chapter, then next week it a bad chapter with a bad character I hate with a passion
