fuck you, Gamma was awesome
Big on the other hand

so you want edgy then?

>>137524674
Bleach? He got the power back after the fullbring arc which was stupid as fuck. I don't even get how he had fullbring powers to begin with. And now he's also a quincy. This series needs to fuck off already.
>MC defeated the big bad in his land
>has to go to a different land that is more hardcore and perilous where only the strong survive
>goes to that land
>most of the arc has the MC suffering due to many events that happen in the land
>MC goes back home a lesser man than he came in due to that land
>>137524954
What is this, like a reverse shonen where the mc slowly loses faith in himself?
>MC goes through a dangerous forbidden training bullshit that only one in thousands survives
>dies
>>137525647
That never happens. Unless he's revived after
>first villain encounter: the enemy has superhuman speed and reaction
>after hero training: the villain basicly just became slower and patiently waits to take a strike from the hero
>>137524436
>>137524525

I hate this meme.

Oh no it's

Well it would have happened in JoJo.

So you enjoy asspulls in anime? Good to know.

The first episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho were fun.

Why the fuck do you have an Avenger Penguins reaction image?

Apparently you can get girls in japan to fall for you just by breathing on them.

Working hard is a talent.
If you're born without the ability to work hard how do you ever gain it?

>guy goes rapey
Not always man.
>>137537587
No but that's because there was already a guy she liked. It's when the girl doesn't already have a crush that it happens.
>MC can still stand and fight despite having broken ribs

Does any series actually makes the mc and the enemy fight at full power right away instead of scaling progressively during the fight?
>>137524704
fuck you, Big was awesome
Amy on the other hand
>>137542354Undertale.
>>137542354
In FMA, Ed's just about as powerful in the first issue/episode as he is in the end. The villain powers up, but really they just go from from ridiculously more powerful than Ed to even more ridiculously more powerful than Ed, and Ed never really fights them until the end.
>>137542354
still love the villains of Digimon Adventures and Frontier
>Villain attacks doesn't send minions but rather attacks heroes at the start
>heroes has to find a way to not gets killed long enough to be powerful enough
was the case of Etamon/Miyotismon/Dark Masters/Dark Warriors
>>137542354
In most shows where fighting isn't the focus, the fight lasts for like 10 seconds and the winner is clear.
>enemy unleashes his most powerful attack

fuck you, Amy was awesome
Sonic on the other hand

>>137524779
>I don't even get how he had fullbring powers to begin with
Anybody who is attacked by a Hollow while on the womb gets the fullbring power. That, or everybody that gets attacked as child. Not sure.
In any case her mother died of that, attacked by a hollow, it was said early on the manga.
I stopped around that point, after the fullbring arc, but I still remember that much.
good guys beat up bad guy
they decide to to blast a hole in his head to make sure he doesn't revive
turns outhis ability was to revive and get bigger and stronger according to how ravaged he was

Holy shit, is there anything like this deconstruction thingy? I know Evangelion kinda had something going with it with Shinji, but he didn't really believe in himself in the first place

That logic is so stupid.
