Why does Japan do capeshit so much better than the west?
Because they are free from the capeshit subculture.
>>121010029
In a nutshell.
>>121010029
To expand on this, the mangaka designs and owns the superheroes, villains and universe.
The capeshit comic writer borrows them.
Pretty much this >>121010029
Also less political correctness.
>>121009979
Many things, cape comics now a days are pretty much fan fiction and the writers are always trying "push new boundaries". Too bad, they aren't very good at execution.
So now we have comics were people running around in spandex is serious business with Rape, abortions, murder and ridiculously depressing shit
Post more best girl
because capeshit writers and artists are hostages of the dreadful capeshit fanbase.
they won't tolerate variety or change to their decades old, never-ending, soap opera
>>121010242
I don't get this, has there ever been a case where political correctness has hampered a Marvel/DC comic?
Is this about fanservice? Is this about black Captain America/Spider-man?
I'm just so confused.
>>121009979
Because you don't like capeshit, but you like japanese manga. So it is not the capeshit you like in this, it's the manga.
>>121010403
I'm not talking about the strict north american use of the term "political correctness". It's more about the boundaries when it comes to certain topics like incest and lolis.
>>121010361
But I wouldn't blame everything on the fanbase: the publishers own pretty much everything and are certainly able to veto things they don't want, and push things they want.
I'm not saying a shounen magazine is devoid of powerless or influence, but you can certainly feel the greater creative freedom for yourself.
>>121010360
See what I mean? The chick with frog-related abilities is drawn to resemble a frog.
In a Western capeshit she'll just be yet another supermodel wearing green.
>>121010524
*devoid of power
the comic book code kind screwed over American comics.
OP, you should read "empowered".
That's the real (cape)shit.
>this slightly homo figure alone manages to make superpowers better than any of the hundreds of capeshit authors that did and do write for mainstream capeshit comics in the west
Because you don't read actual capeshit.
>>121009979
Hero Academia isn't even "capeshit", it's just a shonen with general powers. Thr only character that even gets close to "capeshit" is All Might.
>>121010640
Hi /co/
>>121010639
>He's also a vampire
>>121010524
and she'd certainly only have the flashy and cool abilities
>>121010524
>In a Western capeshit she'll just be yet another supermodel wearing green.
I don't want to come to capeshit defense, but there is a bucktooth girl with squirrel powers.
>>121010642
I think the only defining thing about capeshit from other wise super power works is costume. so it counts.
RisingXRydeen is basically X-men the way it should be. Prove me wrong.
>>121010360
Do not fucking start this shit, I'd like to see a Hero Academia thread without waifufagging.
>>121010361
You do realize otaku are basically the same, right?
>>121009979
Because the original creator/creators have more control over their creations even with Shounen Jump editors and execs they have more freedom.
>>121010524
>the publishers own pretty much everything and are certainly able to veto things they don't want, and push things they want.
they want one thing only, money.
>>121010680
>and Mona Lisa's model
>>121010680
>A fairy too.
>>121010724
Squirrel girl doesn't even have squirrel based powers. She just off screens her enemies.
>>121009979
Best of both worlds, simple as that.
>>121010837
Could she offscreen Demonbane?
>>121010403
>I don't get this, has there ever been a case where political correctness has hampered a Marvel/DC comic?
Yes, in the 50s and again nowadays. Comics are by far the western media who suffers the most from modern social inforcement, since they are too niche to escape from it
>>121010744
>You do realize otaku are basically the same, right?
no doubt. but marvel and DC can't afford to try new things as much as a mangaka with a 10 people crew. the "need" to make money is not the same
>>121010855
yes
>>121010595
I have those books.
Adam Warren is a total weeb but his series was fun.

>I don't want to come to capeshit defense, but there is a bucktooth girl with squirrel powers
Now.
>>121010837
pretty sure she has enhanced strength, agility, and super strong jaws. + prehensile tail. Squirrels just happen to suck.

I don't think it's fair to say Japan outright does capeshit better. One decent manga against a plethora of good storylines. The thing with the west is that for every capeshit jewel there's 100 shit ones.
>>121010361
>hostages of the dreadful capeshit fanbase
I fucking wish that they would make things for their fans.
They haven't made comic books for the fans for a long time now. Now they are made for and by tumblr who don't buy comics.
>>121010524
>supermodel
No. Post-2012, she'd be another teenage girl with no curves or breast, wearing a mix of super-spy clothing with a very masculine shirt and jeans, so they can avoid hurting the feelings of hambeasts
>>121010744
>Do not fucking start this shit, I'd like to see a Hero Academia thread without waifufagging.
why?

>>121009979
Because western capeshit is still stuck in the 40's.
>>121010976
>capeshit jewel
>literally muh hidden gem excuse
yeah, no.
>>121010855
If America is willing to nuke Japan just to win the power levels argument, yes. So most likely.
>>121010742
Why that boku fairy tail hero became so famous and nobody ever talk about this one?
>>121010361
I dunno. Stuff like Superior Spider-Man somewhat proves that they're willing to take some risks.
>>121009979
Does she get her powers from not wearing underwear?
Because it's not tied down by the new SJW overlords that run Marvel, DC, Image and Dark Horse, they are the type of people that want to make Link into a girl and Zelda into a fat black woman who don't need no man.
>>121010976
>The thing with the west is that for every capeshit jewel there's 100 shit ones.
Just like manga then.
>>121010890
>later explained away as a clone
That's not what the Watcher said. Man, people get so butthurt when the wrong cape beats the wrong villain.
>>121010890
Didn't she fight Galactus off screen? I mean she hasn't lost yet right? So she had to have won.
>>121011075
>make Link into a girl
I have no problem with that
>>121011075
Do SJW's even read comics?
>>121011099

>>121010897
She doesn't even throw acorns. What bullshit is that?
Capeshit can be fun sometimes. Sometimes.
Pic related, the ending to the Avengers trilogy.
>>121011105
You would if you saw how the tumblrinas draw Female Link.
>>121011085
Exactly. So it's unfair to say that Western Capeshit is worse than Japanese Capeshit.
>>121009979
I don't think much capeshit came out of other places of the west than the USA.
And the USA had a lot of almost entirely retarded comic artists work in the most popular publications, with little options or room on the market for smaller publications.
No diversity and always the same actual retards publishing sums up western capeshit.
Never mind that the USA has some serious cultural issues around sexuality and the like that are way more severe than in most of the west... that is also an obstacle.
>>121010986
I didn't think this was real.
Thats disgusting.
>>121011058
Yes, and then "fanbases" who don't really read it will bitch online so hard it will be impossible to talk about it in an english-speaking place. Those are people who treat characters not as part of the stories, but as "toys" who must always be there and be the same. If a character dies, they don't treat it as part of the plot, but as a toy who "broke", and so they rage hard about that.
>>121011144

Link was already turned into a girl by Shindol.
>>121010976
>capeshit jewel
there's no such thing.
i'm not even a weeb, i read comics as much as i read manga, but the capeshit genre is the least imaginative and most generic type of comics books there is.
the jewel you refer to is a jewel among capeshit, not graphic literature

No, not really. They just critique what they assume is a boys club based on the wikipedia article they read and what their SJW friends say about.
But then again SJW's rarely actually look into the source material of what they bitch about (but if they were informed then they would likely not exist).

>>121011129
No, they just look at random pages and if a girl is doing a sexy pose or has a nice slim sexy body they shower the artists twitter with you are sexist messages, that's why Captain Marvel was made, and why Squirrel Girl looks like an actual Tumblr use and why Young Avengers actually had an issue dedicated to tumblr.

American Comic Industry got neutered.
Manga Industry is in the Process of getting neutered.
>>121011153
Not really. There's a lot less Japanese capeshit to begin with, so the average isn't anywhere near as low.
Even if you compared manga to comics, manga makes incomparable amounts of cash to comics in the first place. One Piece alone on a good year makes like a third of the profits the capeshit industry makes so there's nothing to dispute.
>>121011259
I do, just not when Tumblr draws it.
Superior Japanese Magneto and Brotherhood of Evil Mutants
>>121011254
I don't neccessarily think that's the case, I think there's a serious problem with oversaturation in the Capeshit universes but stories like Coming Home, No man's land and Watchmen prove that there is hope for capeshit (even if all of those were written a while ago now)

they still have all the mainstream stuff to back up any potential failure
>>121011254
Nips have a little more respect from themeselves in the matther of writting stories, in the west writters and artist are just there for the money, if you wanna read good west comic stuff jump for graphic novels, short series or things that isn't about super heroes
>>121010855
Well it's tough to say since she's a joke character. Like Saitama, the whole reason she exists is to be unbeatable and presenting her with a threat she couldn't handle would ruin the joke. Though a logical argument could be made that Squirrel Girl beating Demonbane wouldn't even be funny in the first place, so her joke-based powers have no effect.
I'm surprised the SJWs haven't latched on to BnHA yet.
>>121011412
I sometimes fantasize about being a rich southern plantation owner taking sexual liberties on one of his slaves, its the kind of fantasy that offends both sides of fence.

Capeshit in the west died when Superman died for the first time and returned two issues later. It set a standard that it's okay to keep the status quo even if it makes for a stagnant story as long as there is a profit to be made even if it means making death itself obsolete.
Also what can the west do better than Japan? Not trying to be a weeb but nothing comes to mind
>>121011495
Well yeah, but only if they're basically white women with black skin and dark hair. Otherwise you're just raping a gorilla.
>>121011485
SSHHHHH!!!
>capeshit writer/artist does a run on comic
>everyone likes this
>for no reason, writer/artist moves on and is replaced by by a writer who reboots the storyline/forgets certain plots and/or the artist is replaced by some clearly inferior artist.
While I have seen some of this happening in manga, it's just really rare in comparison.
>>121011454
Maybe not a risk economically but then you slap the Marvel logo on anything and it will sell. The point I was trying to make is that the writers of some capeshit aren't afraid to alienate fans to write a good story.
I'll dig any other type of western comic any day of the week. Fucking Donald Duck comics? Hell yeah. But I tried multiple times to get into capes and it's just fucking impossible for me.
They just aren't interesting at all. I'm not sure what it is about them.
>>121010403
Black Cap is the Falcon who's taken up the mantle like Bucky did, Funny enough this is not even the first black Captain America
Black Spider-man is the current Spider-man of the essentially obsolete Ultimates universe.
>>121011583
some definitely are, it's easy to spot crossboarders
>>121011485
What difference would it make? Japan is blissfully untethered from that stupid culture.
To put things into perspective, Marvel anime simply suck.
Not even anime studios given unusual (for capeshit writers) liberties with the characters can make something good come out of them.
>>121011611
I feel like it's inevitable anon. We just have to prepare.

Yes because incest and lolis dramatically improves the quality of any particular thing.
That's full retard.
>>121011577
Hellboy is pretty much like the eastern tradition, it's been written and draw almost all the time by the same guy and team since it was created, holds a linear timeline and there is no multiverse crap

Just look at "recommendations list".
Comic books have more free even now. Who draws manga without school setting now except Urasawa?
>>121011792
And that's how it should always be. Nothing good comes from changing artists/writers all the time.
Also, multiverse my ass.

>>121011604
>Also what can the west do better than Japan?
I've actually thought about this a lot.
There are certain genres that are common in Manga and Anime that just can't be pulled off with most western comic industries.
It's not like books where people expect to see varying kinds of stories, people are generally tailored to believe the only type of comics out there are cape comics, and if you want anything else you should go foreign.
As far as I know there's no western moe, no western SoL that actually fits the definition of "SoL", no school life or anything, though that only extends to America, I'm sure Europe has better luck with that.
Inversely, there aren't really any genre done in the west that can't be done just as good or better in Japan. I mean, most west things get a Japanese adaption anyway, so they're pretty much on-par and above.
>>121011841
What's point of this picture?
>>121010840
this is the best fucking manga, but it gets scanlated so slowly
>>121011679
