Zig Forums, can we finally admit that the shonen genre has finally evolved? no longer considered manga for meatheads that are too dumb to understand a complex story, but a genre capable of combining the ferocity of combat with the gentle, intellectual storytelling only found in such novels at Finnegans Wake and To The Lighthouse.

It's a blessing knowing that shonen is no longer just generic tales that we've read a thousand times already.

Kino Punch is not shonen, should be replaced with HxH

Imagine having such shit taste that you try to shill Akutami's garbage on this board all day everyday like it's a job.

Said by a Hunter x Hunter fan, ironic

Pretentious hipsters like OP liking shounen and thinking it's deep are a demerit to the entire genre.

Is this all you can manage? I know you Fujimoto/Akutami are underage but I wasn't expecting this level of patheticness. Stop shilling your favorite shonen garbage and killing threads with these low effort shit threads, no one cares about bottom-of-the-barrel filth like Chainsaw Man or Jujutsu Kaisen, it's literally just FOTM garbage with zero redeeming qualities AT ALL. You're in no position to make fun of anyone when you like such shit, please reconsider your taste or stop embarrassing yourself like this just because you're anonymous

Calm down leo

Man, shut the fuck up.

Making fun of HxH is something everyone should do. Togashi would agree with me since he does it every single day

O MY RUBBER NEN

HxH could never return and still be better than everything Fujimoto or Akutami could put out in their entire lifespan. You guys have such shit taste it's ridiculous, I have no idea how you can hype up garbage like Chainsaw Man and company so much and so hard. I hope you're being paid.

Fire Punch is shounen, VIZ just likes to pretend otherwise.

You could think this only if you are brainlet who thinks walls of text are signs of quality

The stuff you put in your pic would suggest that it just went from high effort to low effort with a tinge of pseudo-intellectual pretentiousness to make people who were too dumb or lazy to even understand something like One Piece in the first place, feel like they're reading something more complex or intellectual when it's quite the opposite. I guess shounen just went from being appreciated by low and high IQ to now appealing to the same midwits that it used to filter out.

Excluding maybe Naruto, the top row has much higher quality than the bottom row.

I think so but I think it's stupid to go all the way back to OP, DBZ, and Naruto. Obviously shonen has evolved since then it's been literal decades. Instead compare the early 2010 era to now. BnHA, BC, Boruto, Sam 8 lol, all these shitty series trying to copy the big three. Dragging out the story, terrible MC, etc.

But now it's Kimetsu, JJK, CSM, and sure go ahead and lump firebunch in there. It's not as bad as everyone says it's just stumbling a bit. Kimetsu's movie is doing great and it's season season will be crazy, JJK got a great adaptation and hopefully CSM follows. New alliance looks great

>people who were too dumb or lazy to even understand something like One Piece in the first place,
All the nips understand One Piece and they are dropping it in mass because of Wano. The real filter is good writing and OP hasn't seen that one in a long time

>too dumb or lazy to understand one piece
>one piece
is this bait?

>BnHA, BC, Boruto
>Bad
>KnY, JJK, CSM
>Good
Do you realize that all of this is just your opinion?

>"Did you know comparing what's good and bad comes down to opinion?"
yes user, very fucking obviously

Do you realize that anything anyone writes is just an opinion? No series is "objectively" better and if someone thinks so, they're a retard.

>All the nips understand One Piece
No, they don't.
>and they are dropping it in mass because of Wano
No indication of that unless you view it from a narrow perspective. Wano itself certainly has had no significant effect trends. Not that it means anything even if there was.
>The real filter is good writing
No it isn't. Only midwits think good writing is a filter.
>and OP hasn't seen that one in a long time
You wouldn't know that and in any case still above anything in the bottom row objectively. Sales are now the same as they were pre timeskip, it has nothing to do with writing. You're being contradictory, in the first place associating higher sales with better writing and then calling it a filter. In any case, what does any of your post timeskip autism have to do with OP being a midwit? That's still 500 chapters he's too dumb to understand even if we take your statement seriously. Stop taking every little opportunity to voice your petty complaints against Wano, it's unseemly.

>t. midwit

>and OP hasn't seen that one in a long time
Nothing on the bottom row has ever seen it.

I think he's trying to bait someone into posting objective metrics like sales so he can go off on salesfags

I'm not. Look at this post

>dragon ball Z manga
way to out yourself as a retard

user those are both me what is your point?

>Creators of KnY and JJK
>Both literally cite Naruto and Bleach as major influences
>Yet somehow they're different from shounen of yesteryear

That you are comparing what Zig Forums currently likes with what Zig Forums currently hates and you are using success and sales as an "objective" comparison.
To sum up: you want (You)s

fuck off decuck

Unfortunately, it isn't bait, There legitimately are people too dumb for it if you can even believe it. The same people who hold Finnegans wake in high regard and are pretentious about their taste in shounen. I can hardly believe they exist myself.
