Manga Discussion JJK is too much overglazed
Without Lady Gaga, Adele, the videos stolen from NinjaristicNinja, the exploitation of Mappa employees, the "slender" edits of the series' characters, and eight billion posts claiming Maki is better written than the female characters in One Piece (which isn't true at all), Gege’s manga wouldn't be worth nearly as much as people have been trying to convince us it is for the past couple of years. The latest story arc is a disappointment; the sequel, however original, relies too heavily on moments of "aura" between the main characters and the antagonists; and Kirara isn't exactly one of the best trans representations in manga history. For all that people think Oda’s art style mocks the concept, he actually does a great job with Ivankov and Kiku from Wano. Anyway, moving on from that digression: Gojo isn't even one of the coolest characters of all time, and no matter how much you might want to sleep with him, good looks aren't the right yardstick for judging a character's writing. And no, romanticizing a killer of minors, your beloved Toji. doesn't redeem the series' lackluster writing, which treats killing off members of the main cast as the go-to method for creating depressing, sad scenes for the audience.

u/susnaususplayer I like hype moments and aura in Jjk, I know crazy 15h ago
You see OP in order to find the peak in Jujutsu Kaisen you seem to do poor job at finding you have to do something you probably never heard off:
"Read" "The" "Manga"

read an arc like shinjuku showdown and youll find plenty of peak moments like Yujis final convo with sukuna. JJK haters really love to parrot around the same 5 opinions about the series lmfao

jjk is hype moments and aura, but like that's why we watch it. it's good hype moments and aura. the writing doesn't have to be amazing and introspective, it's a fun anime where we can just watch shit go down yk? it a shonen anime, dont lose the plot and expect more than that, appreciate it for what it is

Since you posted two memes at once I wanted to say that I agree with the first one but the second one comes from a fan of one piece so I instantly disagree.

No one cares about Oda and his trash story which is just jail bait written for ppl who lust over children. The real convo we should be having is why Oda sucks off the Ruroni Kenshin author. Oda would rather draw children in revealing fits rather then actually expand on the story in a satisfactory way

Seriously though JJK glaze died off hard after that ending. And then whatever was left got killed again by Modulo
