I always thought Earth X's big final battle between Galactus and The Celestials had some cool scenes.

It's a damn shame too.
This could be a possibility, but not enough people give a shit.
>>152680920
There are a few cool fights here and there, but not nearly enough considering overwhelming saturation of the genre.
>>152680955
There are many manga, not all of them super well known, with similar creative and cool fights.

Is there a name for this demographic that only "consumes" shonenshit and capeshit, but in this very secondary way where they don't really engage with the actual source material(s) at all?

>It's sort of ridiculous to not be able to artistically flex from time to time for a visual medium largely revolving around action
i think what happens is that the west, people get too caught up on the logic/realism or intent behind something which causes them to refrain from doing any ambitious looking artwork
I remember a thread a while that was talking about how western shows refuse to use any perspective shots or use different camera techniques
And some anons responses were because the scene didn't call for it

>LOL LE EPIC EAST VS WEST THREAD
Scientific studies have provided irrefutable evidence that trolls are extremely severely mentally ill, dopamine addicted sociopaths.
https://www.theconversation.com/amp/new-research-shows-trolls-dont-jus t-enjoy-hurting-others-they-also-fe el-good-about-themselves-145931
Therefore, each and every single troll both needs, and deserves to be subjected to immediate, involuntary and indefinite institutinalization not only for their own good, but for the greater good of human civilization.
Also, trolling is against Global Rule 3, raiding is against Global Rule 4, and spamming is against Global Rule 10.

It’s about on par with most lower range manga action.
Naruto is, despite criticisms, popular for a reason. It’s a better example of action manga and this recognized as such. Most manga wouldn’t achieve its level of popularity or have the skill behind it.

>>152680830
Naruto wasn't all that great. Compared to its contemporaries it played things too safe and didn't bother to challenge or redefine what manga could be. And someone really should have told Kishimoto to stop using those god awful markers to color his manga. They're fucking trash that makes his art look even worse.

Not with the hype, aura, and iconic clear choreography that Naruto does. Otherwise, they'd be as popular as Naruto.

Kishimoto is one of the cleanest and most technical artists who ever worked in shonen manga. I know you're trying to be a cool guy hipster bro, but let's all just be real with ourselves- Naruto is a massive IP years after it ended mainly due to the art of Kishimoto.

Comparing Bleach and Naruto is low hanging fruit. Compare it to other Shonen manga that actually gave a shit about trying to do something different like Ashita no Joe, Jojo, or Dragon Ball.

Anon this will shock you but Radiant is translated internationally too, I don't just mean Viz or europoor editions, Murata demanded a published Japanese edition.

People are able to recognize the greatness of Naruto now that it stopped being cool and trendy to hate on it. Bleach is the opposite- it was cool to like bleach at the time, and the internet used to say dumb shit like Kubo is a better artist and writer than Kishimoto. Now, Naruto is still extremely popular and beloved, while bleach is basically forgotten.

>Why was it in WSJ?
Because Shueisha wanted to publish it.

Shonen's target demographic liked the pilot chapter and wanted more

Because it was popular.

I haven't read it but if I had to guess it probably doesn't have an easily scalable way to resonate with people. Naruto is child soldiers with memorable designs, a bunch of unique skills and characteristics to go along with solid action. It's an interesting setup and it hooks people even though it arguably devolves as it goes on. Hero Academy got popular for similar reasons
>>

For anyone here that hasn't read Naruto (or that much manga to begin with) and is being lead to believe it's good or its art is the best art manga can offer. It's fucking not. Literally just google Vagabond or Akira.

This. You know the Chunin exam arc that every still glazes to this day? It wasn't Kishimoto's choice. His editors told him to fill the status quo and do a tournament arc like the rest and he bowed to their demands.

You haven't seen much then. Though to be fair, a lot of the long-running battle shounen can have really shitty pacing in their anime adaptation because they're really stretching for time or the peanut gallery won't shut the fuck up. You just gotta look for the episode where they bring in the real good director and let him go wild with the budget.
