#918778 Boruto The Next Generation: Chapter 3

Posted by Frankie on 22 August 2016 - 07:33 PM

 
Well the kids are a lot better not far better than the ones that we got from Naruto, I mean I have never read Bleach but even I can tell the kids look better than the ones from Naruto.


I've deadass only saw 1 episode of Bleach (the first episode) and it just didn't interest me. That being said, I like Ichigo's kid more than Naruto's despite me having actually read Naruto beginning to end. That's bad from an objective standpoint if someone who's never read a manga likes the end result more than a series he's read for 9 years.

Oda won't mess his ending up. He has stated he already has it planned out and he's come out and said he doesn't let fans influence his work. Kishi and Kubo never gave that kind of assurance.

I actually hate the overprotective dad trope. Because, in most cases it's just sexist kitten. If it's played in a comedic way I can tolerate it more, but that doesn't mean the reason people find it funny is because, sexism and pressed gender roles.
 
Personally, I think he'd be embarrassing her a bit, trying to make her happy, maybe a bit jealous but not anything overly dramatic. Like I don't think his reaction would need a whole episode or anything.


I can tolerate the overprotective dad trope if it's in specific circumstances. An example I am fine with is one of my MANY, keyword there, stories, one of the characters lost every member of his family aside his eight year old daughter and baby brother so, naturally, he's very protective over her. That's fine to me because it's understandable why he's like that to her, but it isn't used for the sake of the cliche reasons it normally endures.

They also worked together to destroy this manga, making them all the better suited for one another.

You know the best part about being behind on One Piece? I don't have to wait a week after a slow chapter and the flow is a lot better 😁

its also funny because they planned on sealing him anyway didn't they XD


I've been saying for two years now that they should've just had Madara sealed in Chapter 680 or something - which would be an Ironic End for him considering his World Ending plan - and had Naruto vs. Sasuke go for 13-15 chapters and have 5 to wrap up all loose ends.


#912099 New Boruto Manga?

Posted by Frankie on 29 May 2016 - 11:50 PM

I actually read that NaruSaku WAS supposed to happen. A guy I've been talking with on Fanfiction said he found some of the original artwork or something along those lines. He's looking for the source again, so I'll try and get it linked soon. 
 
If Kishi were to come out and say "Yes, NaruSaku was supposed to happen" then it would be NH/SS worst nightmare come true. Part of me has to believe that he was just put under pressure. He was surrounded by NH fans, and it wouldn't have been a fun time for him if he'd made NS the final pairing. Heck, maybe they wouldn't have even let him publish the final chapter if he didn't make it NH and SS


The thing with people like Kishimoto is that they don't recognize the position they're in. His manga was one of the main money makers for Shonen Jump, so he pretty much had leeway to do whatever the kitten he wanted with his story. Doesn't Oda have that privilege?

Back on topic, saying that he wouldn't have had his final chapter published unless it was done a certain way is simply not true. He pussied out and tried to appease the vocal fans, when he should've just done what the kitten he wanted and ignored their demands.

Just started One Piece. Read Volume 1 in Barnes and Noble and immediately bought up to Volume 50 and I'm glad I did! This series hasn't disappointed me yet! Up to Volume 25 right now. Gotta say that Sanji is my boy right behind Luffy, though I fluctuate between the two on who's my favorite.


#905703 One Piece: Burning Blood (PS4, PS Vita, Xbox One, & PC)

End my life...
 
Skip to 1:22 to see all the support only characters:

 
Most of the supernovas, Straw Hat alliance members, and.... Tashigi... are on there. There is like 60 people on there, and half of them should of just been made playable characters. Pure laziness is what this is. You make a game with like 30 playable characters and 60 support... you're making a mistake... :cry:
 
On a good note, the "Wanted Versus" mode looks like it'll be pretty fun and challenging. Looks a lot like the "Tower battles" or whatever those things were called in J-Star Victory Vs. That thing where you got badges the further in difficulty/levels you got.


Don't worry. Watch them announce DLC where you can play as those characters.


#903585 Boruto - the movie

Posted by Frankie on 27 February 2016 - 02:13 AM

Decided to watch this movie while waiting for Episode 32 of Dragonball Super to be dubbed. I'm gonna have a rare opinion here...

It's not a bad Naruto movie.

Listen before you attack me, keep this fact in mind: none of the Naruto movies are really good. They're all mediocre at best and piss poor at worst. I even go as far as to put this one in the Top 5, but that's not really saying much.

I found Boruto to be sympathetic in this film. He just wants to be acknowledged by his father and to have him around more. It's hard to not at least understand where this kid is coming from.

I'll acknowledge the collosal damage this film does to Naruto as a character. He's not a hero or protagonist anymore. I'd even argue that he's the real antagonist/Big Bad of the movie. You just can't get behind him anymore.

However, all that aside, it's a relatively decent movie with good action scenes, some genuinely awe moments, and a nice message that you shouldn't cheat to get ahead and to not let work overtake your family.

Overall: 7/10.

Can't really say anything if she wasn't shown fighting in the series(beside rtn maybe) what could they give her


They gave Shisui kitten and now gave Rin kitten. Both were never seen fighting. Where's the excuse - because I can't find it.


#885432 Boku No Hero Academia

Posted by Frankie on 04 November 2015 - 02:38 AM

Caught up with Volume 1 and just finished Volume 2. Interesting series that has me hooked and I'm not one to venture off into new series unless they're really good.

Gotta say my favorite character is probably Tenya Ida. That dude is just hilarious. Reminds me of Shino a little bit. Shoto Todoroki is a close second. Dude is OP as kitten and is so fun to watch wreck kitten. Eraser-Head is like Kakashi only more entertaining.

Izuku is just loads of awesome. I like how he's still struggling to learn to use his power and learning more and more about what it means to be a hero.

Katsuki is also interesting. Confident and cocky, yet can see when he has to improve - like at the end of the Hero/Villain training simulation.

Ochako is just loads of entertaining. Definitely has one of the most unique Quirks in the story so far as gravity is hardly touched upon in superhero tales. Can't wait to read more about her.

All-Might reminds me of Pervy Sage. I'm pleasantly surprised at the weaknesses displayed in his character and like how he still goes about maintaining the symbol of peace despite his large handicap.

Considering just reading the rest of the chapters online. Will still definitely buy the manga volumes though.


#885218 Your most satsifying moment of beating a game.

Posted by Frankie on 02 November 2015 - 08:46 PM

Beating any of the Uncharted games on Crushing was really satisfying. GTA Vice City was a close second. Actually, forget those - Resident Evil 3 was my most satisfying moment. Why? Finishing that damn water puzzle and fighting Nemesis while on VERY low health and getting away clean.
