[Blankshot]

if u like to watch bleach u have to skip all the fillers coz all of them are just annoying(especially the lastest katana thingy).

[Sertth]

I honestly believe zanpaktou rebellion arc was the best summer filler ever... what was annoying about the arc? I mean thats a simple single-minded shounen if that arc is annoying the whole series should be annoying also.



SPOILER



It is also noteworthy that we have seen another dimension of Ichigo's hollowification at this arc.

Bleach is a very good shounen.

NO IT FUCKING ISN'T STOP SPEWING SHIT

[Kilizion]

All I can recommend so far is (Mostly shit Sint, Kawe and Grish recommended) I asked around and heard nothing bad about these tbh:

- Samurai Champloo
- Cowboy Bebop
- Afro Samurai
- Black Lagoon
- Black Lagoon: Second Barrage

These are the only animes I've ever watched unless you count Pokemon and early Dragon Ball Z? Not everyone starts of with shit animes Nach! Just do your research Rucious.

[Sertth]

Cowboy bebop and samurai champloo are cults really. A future projection blended with american counterculture and jazz... both series created their own kind of genre.

Bleach is a very good shounen.

NO IT FUCKING ISN'T STOP SPEWING SHIT

Tell me a good shounen nach?

ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH

Also - for anyone reading Mango, read Berserk already. It could easily come off as a literary classic (assuming it'll stay the same quality when it's finished) if it wasn't a comic book (OMG 4 CHILDRENZ).

Berserk , probably one of the best darkest storys ever. And it doesnt trail off either ,it
is all relevant to the story , Fucking love it. i like the fact that as the story begins to
start picking up you can see just why he is so fucked up.

[Nachmanun]

Yeah I could write essay on essay why I consider Berserk the fucking greatest this in the whole damn world, but it can also be concluded in 1 sentence.


SPOILER BENEATH
His girlfriend is raped retarded (literally, she has a mental breakdown and goes retardomodo) by the protagonist's former best friend and homobro who at the same time also infects protagonists child who's in the stomach of his waifu only to later use the same child to build himself a new physical body.

Guts for fucking president.

is the original bleach thread did you honestly think there wouldnt be one rucious
bleach got me back in to anime after not watching it for a long time... first 15 episodes or so were actualy good then it got worse... and then it was nothing but THE HEART

also i never read berserk so i cant and wont comment on how great it is (allthough from what i hear there not a single bad thing anyone says other then it might never finish) but claymore is a good shounen to pretty much the lighter version of berserk (allthough still pretty grimdark) with woman in skintight white suits oh and it has helen


oh uhm nach TTGL is not shounen its a super robot show still fucking awesome though

[Nachmanun]

Pretty sure Claymore goes under Seinen.

[Grishnag]

realy? its a monthly thing in shounen jump so figured it would be shounen

[Nachmanun]

Yeah but it's pretty dark and gorey, fuck, more people die in claymore than in Gantz

[Sertth]

yeah mildly violent but still a shounen.

[Nachmanun]

Still pretty sure it's a seinen.
Shounen targets ages between 10-18, seinen (which means young man) targets 18-30~ or so.

Claymore definately fits the latter one far better than the first one. It's all about definition though, which is just a circlejerk discussion without a proper conclusion.
