Ironic shitposting is still shitposting.

Not really. He takes forever to level up and the big fights are fought by other people. Plus there are other protags the story focuses on just as much if not more.
>>
I found his reaction to Kite's death too melodramatic in the anime but it made sense in the manga.
>>
he doesn't eat a lot
he rarely wins
he has no super power or royalty
he is not a prodigy
he will not forgive evildoers or let them live
his revenge is brutal and merciless

he's more like a secondary protag like vegeta put in the protag spot
>>
>tfw nearly finished the series
I started with the anime and read the manga from the beginning and only have about 20 or so left. All I can say is that it's sad to know I'll soon finish with such an amazing series. It was such a wild ride and I might reread it again once I reach the finish.
>>
>>138249186
God yes, he's the plainest fucker in existence
What is it with shonen and boring, and borderline retard protags? (Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, HxH)

That's escapism, anon. Can't you see? It's not healthy!
>>
>>138249307
>he has no super power or royalty
He's the son of a top class hunter, and related to http://hunterxhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Don_Freecss
>he is not a prodigy
Yes he is.
>he will not forgive evildoers or let them live
He let that serial killer go.

You guys don't even try anymore.
>>
>>138249498
You're right, I'm not trying at all. What are you talking about?
>>
>>138249524
You just wanted to make a Gon/HxH thread.

Nothing is wrong with that.
>>
>>138249320
>retard protags
so the audience can relate to the mc

>>138249548

Kinda sad you have to spell it out for him and his shameless self bumping of his crappy thread.
>>
>>138249224
Literally this.
Fairy Tail is like the distilled essence of shonen anime with none of the flavor.
The only thing it has going for it is tits and ass.
>>
>>138249607
I didn't reply to him again, that was a different anon. I'm sick of seeing these shitty falseflagging bait threads though.
>>
>>138249737
There's nothing else to talk about so people have been making falseflagging bait threads for what, over a year now?
>>
>>138249624
>The only thing it has going for it is tits and ass.
Only One Piece kids find the art in FT appealing.
Bleach has better A&T
>>
>>138249186
don't know, he seems like a pretty generic shonen protag, but I like how togashi make his good nature and innocence seems like a menace from time to time
>>
Natsu or Asta

Fuck off Marche

Well, not baiting.

I'm 11 episodes in and the only compelling character so far is Leoni. I really don't see what os the big deal that people make with this show.
>>
>>138250498
Fairy Tail has more anatomically correct idealized bodies. FT fanservice is better than Bleach man.

Don't continue to make threads like this OP, it only attracts retards.
>>
>>138251169
I'm not OP.

To be honest I don't like Naruto, and I have a lack of reaction pics at the moment.

But really, so far there is nothing that impressive. I will keep whatching, people said that it start to get good at the episode 20.
>>
>>138251030
Read the manga.

>>138249186
Pretty much. The whole show is as generic as they get.
>>
>>138249186

Yes and no. His design is very basic, but he has an underlying personality which is remarkably deep based on pride and arrogance.
>>
>>138251094
>Fairy Tail has more anatomically correct idealized bodies
That's an oxymoron
>>
>>138249186
Not really, you'll find out that he's pretty twisted and not much of a hero
>>
>>138251322

Hunter arc is good enough to keep you going, but spiders arc is truly amazing.

After that its a wild ride
>>
>>138249307
>he will not forgive evildoers or let them live
>his revenge is brutal and merciless

Why do CA fags always forget about the rest of the series and just endlessly focus on that one god awful episode.
>>
>>138252330
Ant arc draws on to long.
Though I admit it did a pretty good job of shifting how I was rooting for back and forth.
>>
>>138251690
Nope. The bodies are anatomically correct, and look like the bodies of super models.
>>
I think he could have been but natsu or even ichigo fit the bill more.
