Why is it okay when Villains asspull? They can one shot everyone, get random powerups in the middle of battle and some of them like Dio can just make up new rules on the spot. (My timefreeze now lasts a second longer! NOW IT LASTS EVEN LONGER) Heck, if MC tries to do the same kind of asspull people give them shit.

It's not.

Wasn't cause he drink Joseph's blood that it started lasting longer.

Being pushed beyond your limits in a fight is fine. Certain things like Kakashi having a limited number of Chidori getting eliminated is dumb, Dio getting more adept at using his power during his fight is fine, within reason. Villains with multiple forms like Freiza and Aizen that just get stronger has to be done well. Unless we've been following the villain for a while, we don't know what he has access to so whenever he pulls out more stuff it's fine, he wouldn't be starting shit if he didn't think he could take it. With heroes we follow their journey and see what they are capable of, so when they pull something new it doesn't work.

It's not. Only Jojofags slurp up shit like Kira pulling new abilities out of his ass.

How is this an asspull? He was revealed to be at least on this level in Soul Society when he was revealed as the villain. He literally oneshotted bankai Ichigo, who was at his peak base Bankai power pre-fullbringer arc, and not even captains knew what the fuck was going on. Aizen was always head over heels stronger than nearly everyone.

There is no asspull anywhere on that pic

Because they are villains.

could aizen defeat ywatch?

No

Even if a villain has an asspull, they still end up losing in the end because they're the bad guy, if the protagonist has an asspull, it makes his inevitable victory less satisfying and believable. Neither are good, buts it's not quite as annoying when a villain does it

the captains also all just fought the espada while aizen rested and observed
aizen used a kyouka suigetsu gambit + trolled hitsu so he'd break formation on an already exhausted unit
considering that ichigo's dad is enough to push him to his first limit right after, it's an extremely realistic, even modest development.

>diavolo and muh iron blood asspull
>shigaraki and muh full powered quirk asspull

Aizen's biggest asspull was his big "It was all me, Ichigo" reveal.

>"It was all me, Ichigo" reveal.
It was actually Aizen, it was Urahara. Aizen took his credit

Yeah, I always like how the flashback basically implied Aizen was full of shit the whole time. Even Ichigo called him out on how absurd that is and Aizen's response boiled down to 'no u'

They're heels, they can do that.

Because you always kinda know that the villain is going to get beaten eventually, so him getting an asspull usually causes more of a "oh god, how will the protags get out of this one?" kind of rise in tension. Meanwhile a protag getting asspulls usually causes more of a "geez, the writer will just give this guy any convenient ability to get out of problem? Why should I worry about him?" kind of reaction.

This is why villains getting asspulls is only 100% bad if it is a Devil Ex Machina, where it seemed like the protag had won, and the villain just asspulls something and wins

Not that asspulls aren't bad, but protags getting them usually feels worse.

Have you missed the shitstorm that is Muzan's final fight? Lurk more

Asspulls are bad, villains are bad.

It's not.

The reason protagonist asspulls are bad are because they allow conflict to be resolved in a way that skips foreshadowing, so they feel cheap and undeserved. Villain asspulls just create new conflict, so even if they come out of literal nowhere and catch the hero off guard, as long as they're overcome in a logical manner, what's the problem?

You're kind of right, villains are given a way longer leash when it comes to those things, as if people want to see the villain succeed.

Villain asspulls can make it seem like the author is just dragging out the story, if nothing actually changes in the overall situatin.

It still sucks.

This is the exact same thing I came here to post, thanks for stealing my thoughts. The villain can put up all resistance he wants as long as the author has good writing up his sleeve or a fun spectacle, it's good. Spectacle, yeah. We can't have fun without a villain doing his thing so it's OK if he does it and we get more characters pushing him to his limits or whatever entertaining us.

The protagonist getting asspulls however means that said entertainment is getting a bad ending

>Aizen
>villain

God I fucking hate Kubo's splotchy noodle people art.

You example of asspulls being 'okay' is in Bleach?

You can't possibly think Bleach is well-written.

There are a few adamant defenders of bleach on Zig Forums that refuse to listen to reason.

Lose weight fatso

>t. adamant haters of bleach on Zig Forums that refuse to listen to reason
OP didn't post any asspull

Adds to the tension. People only hate asspulls when they benefit the protagonists.
