It had both the meme or popularity factor and the quality but the first few chapters ykno harsh for a starting mangaka finding his feet but he did excell at what shonen does best, fights.
Having actually read the manga, it got big because it's good. The shit on twitter was people basically begging for it not to be cancelled early because it needed time to get the ball rolling. Giving JJK fans credit for Kagurabachi is probably the most retarded thing I'll read all week and it's only Monday.
Nah nigga, that art is ugly as hell, and the focus on katana wank is absurd. I can enjoy it from a perspective of someone who can see shit.
A Japanese author going fully autistic about the Japanese sword? I'm utterly shocked, that's so out of character for the Japanese.
I dunno man, my avatar is literally Samurai Jack, and his sword is much cooler than the "do broken shit nigga!" of Kagurabachi.
No, both series are great fanservice machines.
I wonder if it will eventually come to bite them. You need to let good content develop, otherwise you are only left with slop. It's like the 2000's television shows where you either got a good first season or it was pushed off the air.
Wow that's early you didn't even get to the fact it REALLY slows to a crawl.
Hell yeah love do broken shit
Shonen Jump is like a tiktok ruined zoomer they need an AUDIENCE ASAP not letting the plants grow and bloom. Theres a reason why people like to say it gets good at X part since they find the writing style but shonen jump plucks it out of the magazine before it blooms
It's also a weirdly sadistic show, and the show can't make up tis mind whether Subaru is a penta loser incapable of tying his own shoes, or the literal lynchpin or reality where somehow if he chooses chicken instead of fish for dinner, cute anime girl #3 gets eaten alive by parekeets. Subaru also has an incredibally bad habit of never shutting the fuck up, and just babbles about everything in a way that reminds me of Asta Earcancer from Black Clover.
You want to know the funniest part? Season 1 is the best season. It goes downhill from there.
The show never commits to whether he is a subversion of the isekai hero or plays it straight. The most it can agree about is him being weak, and even then doesn't matter when rides a giant magic icicle to kill a space whale.
You'd think that he'd develop a speed runner's mindset where "Ope, this run is boned time to kill myself and reset" as well.
The show is bizarrely cruel in a really weird way. Like, Subaru is an incompetent dingus, and the story insists on making him the main character and punishing him with tortuous death or having to watch members of the female cast be brutally killed/in distress/maimed. It's just really unpleasant to watch.
Anime has fallen
oh god what the fuck
Ain't denying that mate, but at least for those, the origins of both are from a long time ago.
I don't see how Samurai Jack is THAT similar to Kagurabachi. Jack does all sorts of crazy things without the Katana.
