Really corny shit for chuuni middle schoolers. Elfen Lied of the new generation.

had a good start but after jason is dealt with it goes down hill real fast. dropped.

No idea, haven't watched it.
But it does have a whole lot of tumblrite followers.

OG: Good manga
RE: I have tried reading the opening chapters and haven't gone very far.

First series was good and sorta fizzled out by the end, second series was good until Kaneki gets his memories back

OG: Peak Hype
But as always the sequel was not so strong and the last arc was like many manga stretched.
I liked the Quinx Squad very much though.

Consistently good for 200 chapters with improving art which is already a rarity among weekly series, but then things got bad after Cochlea and it already showed signs of crumbling pieces in the arc itself. Still a decent read imo. I am hyped for Ishida's new manga

Wut? It became great when MC had his own group and went on exploring the mysteries surrounding his incident. I liked how proactive he became which sadly went missing in the second half of :Re.

>be the become
It was great

Really corny and original post

weirdly enough it reminds me a lot of fullmetal alchemist, re specifically. It has these little spots where it hits super high heights and looks like it's going to become something really special but the final arc is pretty standard shonen fair where the scope is drastically increased but it now feels completely different than the preceding conflict. It also feels really meandering once Goat is formed because Ishida didn't really know where to go with the character of kaneki and just shit on him every 3 or 4 chapters. It feels like he wanted to make a story about understanding those who are persecuted but made an even worse metaphor than mutants since the ghouls have to eat people to survive. There's a lot of parts to the story I really love but I think it flounders super hard.

Why are they so similar? Was Eto put in another re cabin?

It would've been better without the edge

He just stopped caring at some point and wanted to end it as soon as possible. Just compare the tonal shift and the way he builds the narrative during Rose Arc or even Cochlea to the later parts of the manga

Weird, I thought precisely the edge was too toned down at some point. My favorite moments in the series are almost all very edgy scenes because I thought the author did it a good job at writing those scenes without it destroying the atmosphere

I miss it, shitposting in the thread was fun

I still don't understand what was the end goal of the clown, did he just wanted to fuck Rize ?

Not him but I didn't think the edge atmosphere was handled that well. It just came on way too heavy a lot of the time with the slasher smiles and crazy poses and black backgrounds and black speechbubbles and black eyes and veins popping and shit and "I JUST LOVE THE LOOK ON PEOPLE'S FACES AS I KILL THEM" tier dialogue, I mean come on.

It felt like they were trying to make memorable characters but refused to let any of them have memorable moments.

You are probably talking about scenes that featured characters like Suzuya which I can agree with you, that those were unnecessary. But I was more thinking about scenes like the torture, Arima vs Kaneki, the entire Rose arc or even Dragon chapters and especially the build up to it. All of those had edgy scenes but they contributed heavily to the setting and atmosphere

Good Kafka shit, I got my hopes up for the author's next work "Super human x".

the best battle seinen ever made

Manga is a visual medium so I came to appreciate the author's use of different stylistic approaches and him experimenting with different methods to switch up the mood in his drawigns, especially in color illustrations.

First manga was a legit 10/10 read for me. Especially the last arc.

Sequel manga started off slow and underwhelming but slowly got better and reached its peak at the halfway point. Then it kinda went downhill again and everything after the prison break arc just felt kinda rushed and forced as if the author just lost interest in his own series. Art also took a nosedive in the last third of the manga with a few exceptions.

Final arc was a mess and you could clearly tell the author just wanted to end it.
A shame really but overall it's a good series.

/thread

enjoyed it overall and love ishida's art

>Ishida's new manga
I've been out of the loop, is this real?

yes

user you don't need to say "manga is a visual medium" to preface you mentioning on opinion on the art.
