Manga comparison thread

Naruto couldn't love any of us back though. His heart belongs to another.

... I am talking about Sasuke, if that was unclear. 😐

Yeah but didn't you pick Hinata, whose heart belongs to Nartuo? awesome

Hmmm....this week was hard to decide...I think I'll go with...

1. Bleach.
2. Naruto.
3. One Piece.

If only because Yamamoto had one hell of a line. And these new guys seem genuinly threatening. Please God Kubo, don't mess up this build up like last time.

1. Naruto
2. One Piece
3. Bleach

Nothing wrong with OP, just early-arc buildup and one cool fact drop.

Bleach had confusing and overly-busy art. Enemies aren't bad.

Meh. The One Piece chapter gave me mood whip lash. At first, I was pissed at Nami for slapping the Head guy. He's just concerned about his son for goodness' sake. And now she's suddenly going to save the kids. And then the Centaurs, which came outta nowhere. And the cool fact drop was...well I already figured that out. 😛

Bleach has shit going down. No name looks pretty friggin injured and declarations like "Soul Society will fall in 5 Days" gives us a ton of buildup. And the new guy is a mystery at least, apparently believing he can seal Bankai. I wanna know more about these guys.

Yea, that was pretty cool. I'd rate it above OP if I could figure out just what was supposed to be happening when the guy tried to do something to Ichigo's Bankai.

Well for this week I'd rate it as the following

1.Naruto
2.Bleach
3.One Piece

Bleach showed up a pretty intimidating force even though there are still some things that need to be explained. For example, how did these robed dudes get into SS w/o anyone noticing.

One Piece didn't really do anything other than make me mad at Nami and Sanji. The reason for Punk Hazard's climate change was predictable though credit goes to Aura for figuring it out first.

Decent Naruto chapter for a change, rather average OP chapter.

Man, what was it about the Naruto chapter that people liked so much? Itachi's back? awesome

Madara explaining all the reasons why I don't like Tsunade. Oh and Itachi actualy having an excuse to ignore Sasuke this time.

I might actually switch Bleach with One Piece in my ranking.

Question time!

Most hated HST character?

Characters from Fishman Island arc of OP are banned. Choose someone else besides Hodi dammit.

Hard to pick. Surprisingly Sasuke doesn't really cause hatred in me, just intense irritation.

Anyway, its between Akainu, Spandam and the World Noble Luffy punched. Akianu because he killed Ace and is a general cockbag, Spandam because he's just a complete toad and the World Noble because seriously, wtf?

Akainu is ****ing amazing you're a bastard.

Anyway, my answer is probably... Aizen. Completely underwhelming after his first appearance as a villain, boring, and ultimately, when it came right down to it, his supposed intelligence verges on informed attribute, with him just opting for overpowering people during his fights, rather than any applications of intellect.

**** you, Akainu is a complete thug and I hate him.

I have to agree that Aizen is just a boring character. He only has one mode, which is complete smugness and he's completely one-dimensional in that. And considering how broken and potentially interesting to fight his zanpakuto is, that he just powered through everyone and 'cheated' to win against Yama was annoying. But he's just boring imo. He has flashes of being interesting like his reveal, when he tricked Captain Shotocon into stabbing Momo and when he was gay for Ichigo but other than that, meh.

Wapol was a bastard with not a single redeeming character trait. He even sucked at fighting.

The art was crap, but art often is in Naruto 131

Eh, Hodi isn't worthy of hate.

Now, the World Nobles really make you hate them 🙂 And it's proper, "the author wants us to hate them and we really, really do," hate, not "Why must you be so lame??" Aizen hate.

And after getting beaten up by Luffy he became the head of an extremely successful toy company, became filthy rich and married Ms. Universe.

What a ****ing Karma Houdini.

To be fair to Wapol, he had fallen on hard times before then. The minute he tried to make an honest living things started working out.

The World Nobles are indeed pretty damn unlikeable.

Even beyond them though, IMO, are the douchebag nobles of Luffy and Ace's home island.

I have never been so repulsed by anyone in the HST.
