What is the best shounen battle manga in your opinion?
The one you posted or maybe One Piece or FMA.
Everyone else get the fuck out of here before I beat you senseless for posting something else.

why...why you had to use that image?
>>121511235
Not him, but it's probably a jab at the shit anatomy.
JJBA, HxH and Baki the Grappler
Best written: HxH and FMA
Personal favorites: Jojo and One Piece
Baki, HXH, one piece, JoJo
>>121511159
One Piece, FMA, or Jojo. HxH is pretty shit manga-wise, but the anime's alright.
>>121511269
Nah I used it because I fucking love HxH
Are there any interesting but lesser known battle manga besides the ones posted ITT that every one knows about already?
>>121511847
Naruto
>>121511847
Kurogane no Linebarrel is a mecha battle manga.
Ashita no Joe is the classic
>>121511159
I loved The Law of Ueki, Ushio & Tora, and Dragon Quest: Emblem of Roto
Does Murata's One Punch Man count? It's 10/10 but it's supposed to be a satire of battle Shonen iirc.
I wouldn't call it the best but I started reading Dragonball/Dragonball Z and it's pretty tight
>>121511807
Yes... but Pitou ;_;
>>121511969
Or maybe parody. What's the difference?
>>121511893
Ashita no Joe is literally 10/10 GOAT
Fucking masterpiece
>>121511997
Toriyama was always better at adventure than battle tbh. Too bad that went out the window fairly quickly.
>>121512062
Different poster here. I'm actually really enjoying Toriyama's action so far (just finished the saiyan arc). Just in terms of pure fight scenes it's already one of my favorites.

Never said he was bad; the man knows how to choreograph an action sequence rather well. I just always liked his take on the adventure aspect more.
>>121512202
Who's this interesting-looking character and why is he dressed like Gon?
>>121512179
Original poster here. They fights aren't the greatest but I like the whole style/aesthetic the manga has so it keeps me reading. It looks infinitely better than the anime.
I'm only up to the part were Gohan starts wrecking shit on Namek
HxH even though the action isn't that well done IMO. It's special ability/power lore/explanations are the best of any shounen manga (the nen system). The main reason I like it is the characters and sense of adventure pre-chimera arc (but it was still good in the chimera arc too).
The story in the dark continent arc so far seems more world/lore-driven than character driven than usual for HxH but that's fine too.
In terms of just pure fighting art, I really like dragon ball. That panel where goku kicks drum's eyes out is one of my favorites ever
>>121513015
I am hella excited to see what kind of adventure awaits on the Dark Continent.
If we ever get to see it....
But yeah Nen is the GOAT
>>121513015
The actual fight choreography and the way it's drawn may not be the best, but I personally really like how HxH will generally focus more on the tactics used in battle rather than just one super ultra ability trumping the other one at the last minute.
>>121513234
Exactly how I feel. Stuff like bungee gum and the conjurer's rule/restraint system more than make up for it.

rurouni kenshin
YuYu Hakusho

Eyeshield 21.
>>121511969
No, OPM is seinen.
>>121511997
>reading Dragonball Z
That's not possible you fucking liar.
Top 5 battle shounen in no particular order:
-One Piece
-HxH
-Toriko
-Medaka Box
-Jojo
>>121511159
FoTNS, DB, OP, YYH, or FMA. It's a shame Kingdom and OPM aren't shounen.
JoJo, even though it's not shounen anymore.
Gash Bell.
Claymore or FMAB
JJBA, Dragonball, One Piece, Pokemon Special,ZatchBell, Shin Mazinger, Getter Robo, Fist of the North Star,Naruto, Cyborg 009
>>121518211
>Toriko
>>121511159
Eyeshield 21
Toriko is really fun.
>>121512009
You know what, anon. I love Pitou too. I love fapping to lewd art of female Pitou, and even trap Pitou. But that arc. That fucking arc. It gave me so much fucking rage, that I wanted to see a fucking high tier villain die, and I didn't care if it was Pitou. And Gon did it with epic gusto.
