HxH is for ADULTS and is better than One Piece.

Reminder to report cancerous threads.
So what's better 99 or 2001?
Hxh - Shounen
Shounen - Boys
don't be dumb op
What does it's target demographic have to do with quality?
>>141955209
Nothing to discuss
>>141955209

What did he mean by this?
>he fell for HxH better than OP meme
>>141955209
>for adults
Kinda true. Shit gets dark during the ant arc
>better than One Piece
Could have been if Togashi wasn't so WEAK. If you can't commit to the craft every day without crumpling like a bitch you don't belong on Goda's level.
HxH is indeed for adults
>>141955481
What does this line represent?

>>141957289
By that logic Oda is better than Miura, which of course he isn't. He's not better than Togashi either, the time it takes to release work has fucking nothing to do with the quality. The guy is seriously sick, christ.

But muh dedication.
>>141955209
Brah
hunterxhunter is a generic shounen
let me break that down for you
shounen - 少年 - boy; juvenile; young boy; youth; lad
your shitty series is aimed primarily at teenage men
>>141957720
>The guy is seriously sick, christ.
He's a lazy cunt who plays Dragon Quest all the fucking day instead of working on his shitty manga.
Even in the author notes he sounds likes a bitch.
Reminder that Gon's double standards about killing people is not deep, it's just Togashi being the horrible writer he is.

>hating on yusake and based chu
>>141958651
They were cowards and chu really is a cool guy not to mention voiced by wakamoto. No real human operates on perfect logic anyway.
>>141956139
In this particular moment, he is faced with his greatest adversary who just recently killed one of his friends. Gon, in the actual show, is more terrifying than the actual antagonists.

fucking why
Go back to /v/. Video games are TOYS for KIDS. Chinese cartoons are SHOWS for KIDS. Just because one cartoon has nudity or shows people dying doesn't make it any less true.
>>141958604
Togashi's "injury" is really sparking a lot of controversy...
Have we had any actual medical confirmation yet or can it still be said that he's lying?
>>141958951
Why would he have to justify himself ?
>>141957325
>MC will make a girl orgams with an anal plug but won't fuck anybody
Is it to much to ask for a shitty harem MC that isn't a rampant virgin?
>>141958979
because everyone is saying that he's just playing some shitty game instead of working on his manga.
>>141958951
he's been sick since yuyu hakusho volume 6
you would know if you weren't such a POSER.
Togashi's injury is real.
Point is, he is a lazy fuck that ended his own series in the middle of an arc just because he didn't feel like drawing it anymore, even before having back problems.
>>141959024
So he has to justify himself because a bunch of faggot he doesn't owe anything says he's lying ?
>>141959122
Because he has actual standards instead of just sheepishly going along what his editors say.
>>141955209
At least One Piece gets constantly new content
>>141959122
He's had back problems for over 20 years.
what does yuyu hakusho even means
>>141959122
>because he didn't feel like drawing it anymore
He gave a lengthy explanation about why he ended YYH the way he did and it has nothing to do with laziness.
>even before having back problems

Worker's insurance and government insurance for claimed injury is serious business.
New York hired investigators who tailed retired 9/11 Firefighters for years and found out that some of them were lying that they suffered physical injuries from 9/11 like for example, one opened up a Karate Dojo despite claiming arm, shoulder, and back injuries and another was partying crazy in Europe when dancing much less clubbing should have been an impossible task.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2535352/NYPD-officers-firefighters-arrested-9-11-disability-fraud-crackdown.html
So lying about injuries is a pretty serious crime.
>>141959379
They mean a public justification, you doofus.

>one shitty battleshounen is better than another shitty battleshounen
There's nothing to discuss, both are naruto-tier garbage.
>>141959986
Hey hey, slow boi.
Naruto is on whole different level of garbage. To be a bit more specific on the same level as Fairy Tail., which is far worse
>>141959156
>new
>>141958651
Sieryuu is an asshole.
Chu is a cool guy.
Both are "evil" according to their deeds, which by the way applies to Hiei too while we're at it.
Togashi is well aware of this dissonance.
He even comments on it in greed island when Killua convinces Gorainu to use archangel's breath to heal the bombers.
This topic is shit. Neither series is better than the other as they're both good and appealing to viewers in their own ways, what's hard to accept about that? It also attracted shonen-shitters who act like whatever LN adaptation they're watching this season is a breath of fresh air in originality, so it's double shitty.
>>141957349
The story line
>>141959122
Togashi ended YYH because he wasn't allowed to write what he wanted and so couldn't find it in him to become Shuiesha's bitch.
>>141955209
Both are trash
>>141955209
>HxH is for ADULTS
“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
>>141960735
tl;dr
>>141955209
Reminder that togashi will always come in second place and it's his destiny to always be second fiddle to the king.
>DBZ beat YYH
>OP beat HxH
>>141959024
And everyone buys his shit regardless. He's obviously genuinely not well, it's true he likes free time for his family and hobbies but that isn't enough to cause such an erratic release schedule. The only logical explanation is sporadic illness.
Man, people are so comfortable with bullying a sick old guy just because he mildly inconveniences their enjoyment of chinese comics. I feel bad for him.
>>141955209
one piece is complete garbage. hxh is alri but i didnt like it after your doctor man with the suitcase left. he was my fave after all

You are though.
>>141955209
Why the fuck do you shounenshitters keep arguing amongst yourselves as though one WSJ battle shounen being better than another matters?
>>141955209
No and yes.
Because that's it.
>>141957720
Oda got sick so they just make him take breaks every other week now. I don't see why Togashi can't do the same.
>>141958847
thought seal team six shot you already al bin-kenobi
>>141961813
He's lazy. Even if he really is sick he's using it as an excuse to not draw. If he really wanted to keep drawing he would do so and not take an entire year off.
>>141961526
but that cat thing was a dude
>>141961813
It's beyond me how you can just assume they have the exact same health issues that affect them in the exact same way, and the only difference between them is determination.
Life is not actually like a battle shounen, people can't function on pure willpower.
>>141962231
It's beyond me how you can just assume his illness is serious enough to prevent him from sitting down in a chair and holding a pen when he's notorious for being lazy as fuck.
>>141960370
What the fuck did you expect with such a shitty OP.
>>141955481
But the island is new and Nami's tits are bigger
>>141962289
I'm basing my assumptions on what he says, what Jump says, and what his mother said. I'm also basing it on the logic that if he was just lazy, it would make more sense to just release a chapter every month or two instead of going on random, lengthy hiatuses before returning to a weekly schedule.
You are basing your assumptions on literal memes and your desire to have someone to blame. It can't technically be proven either way unless we see his fucking medical records but it makes complete sense that he's just been sick, there's far more reason to believe it than deny it just because the internet told you he's playing Dragonquest.
>>141957720
Oda isn't that bad
Thing is he's stretching shit and now he's running out of ideas
The payload arc usually comes after a long period of boring shit
He can clearly cut down on some of that fluff but the manga will end earlier
I enjoy HxH more but there were some periods of OP that had me wanting the next chapter and when it was over I eventually out of boredom dropped it until I saw threads that looked exciting. The gags aren't funny the 10th time like luffy being retarded it delays the action. Was disappointed with doffy's fight too. Since the time skip, I haven't enjoyed one arc since ace died. Well other than a few moments with law.
>>141962535
>I'm also basing it on the logic that if he was just lazy, it would make more sense to just release a chapter every month or two instead of going on random, lengthy hiatuses before returning to a weekly schedule.
That would make more sense if he was lazy. Doing a chapter a month means actually keeping up with a schedule. If you're lazy, you're going do draw whenever you want and not be consistent.
>You are basing your assumptions on literal memes
Even one of his own editors calls him lazy.
>but it makes complete sense that he's just been sick
I don't know what you think people do when they're sick, but no one stays in bed 24/7 doing nothing.
>>141955209
I really dont know why /a/ compares hxh and op, both anime are really different. Everybody knows OP, HxH doesnt have the same popularity...
>>141962684
>Thing is he's stretching shit and now he's running out of ideas
Never understood this. Do people who complain about this actually read the manga?
The only complaints about pacing I can understand is dressrosa since that took over 2 years in real time. Reading it weekly was a drag but reading it in one go isn't so bad. Putting that aside the actual story has been moving at a really fast pace. Oda has even been skipping most fights or making them small clashes to save on time. He's also juggling several plots at the same time in any given chapter to move the story going at an even faster pace. We have so much content that I don't think we can even finish any time soon even at this current pace.
There is still the whole thing with Big Mom, Germa 66, and Sanji to go through and it seems we're going to be getting Reverie at the same time somehow. Wano Kingdom and Kaido afterwards with Marco and Weevil stuff somewhere in between. We still need to find the last road poneglyph and then travel there along with possibly the four locations the glyphs point to. We definitely need to go to Elbaf at some point. Then we're going to have to reach the end of the grandline most likely before actually heading on to Raftel. We'll most likely find out about the void century and will of D around this time. Enel needs to return at some point with his moon shenanigans possible being connected to the will of D. After finding the One Piece there is the big war that is going to happen. We have to go back to meet up with Laboon and start the journey through the Grand line again for whatever reason since we're going to have to go back to fishman island to destroy it possibly creating the all blue. And a whole bunch of other things I know I'm forgetting. I honestly think there is TOO much content and not enough time to cram it all in since it already been said the manga is already 70% done.
>>141962109
No, Pitou was probably female.
>>141963236
This, there's just too many plotpoints and I seriously want Oda to work them properly.
Adults - yes. Males - not so much.
If I recall correctly One Piece's readership skews much older than you'd expect, 15 year run time will do that though.
>>141964573
Probably 2011
>>141964573
wasn't that for some kind of merchandise sales?
>>141964671
Not sure, but if so, that should reflect relatively accurately on what the demographics of the readership is.
>>141964691
not really.
>>141964735
What's your logic for that? I would say not necessarily, but most likely. At any rate, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if the readership/viewership of HxH skews female. Most of WSJ's big titles' readerships seem to (Haikyuu was 60% female readers last time I checked).
>marathon 80 episodes
>can't bring myself to continue because last episodes were so bad
Those bugs are stupid and they killed off Panzu. Yorknew city was fantastic, Greed island was ok for a filler arc but the bug arc has been retarded so far. And it will last the rest of the show.
Does it get better again? Does the anime at least have the conclusion to the arc or will it leave me hanging? Because then I might as well just quit now.
>>141965120
75-85 are really dark and depressing and hard to get through. It gets better and easier to watch for a while after that.
>>141965120
Ant arc is incredibly good with some of the best moments of the series, but it's long and there's still a good chance you won't like it because it's such a departure from the rest of the series. Read the manga instead if you don't want to invest too much time in it, it's the better version anyway.
It's shonen and thus aimed at 12-17 year olds. It's still okay to like it, I do. Just don't be a sperg about it and don't give a shit about what people think of your taste.
>>141957879
yeah...that is way they air the anime late in the night
>>141965120

Do you have autism? That's like the 5th or 6th thread you've made in 2 days.
>>141965567
You know they air plenty of shounen/shoujo at night, right? Some of them are only in afternoon/evening slots, but a lot are broadcast first at normal late-night anime slots and then just have different reruns later in the week at normal times.
>>141965670
I don't know why people keep thinking it's an OPfag, it's pretty clearly an uninvested shitposter who wants to see the two fanbases fight each other.
>>141964849
Not him, but obsessive adults are probably more likely to spend additional money on merch than kids, so I could see it skewing the age upwards if you measured by that.
>>141955209
A Shounen manga, a genres that is designed and marketed toward teen age at the max, considered adult?
>>141955209
Both are shit now fuck off.

>>141965120
>Greed island was ok for a filler arc
It doesn't take much to be better than one piece.
>>141963236
Oda can always retract that statement about 70% of the manga being done. It's not like he doesn't enjoy making one piece, the only problem i can see is whether or not his health will deteriorate before he can finish the series

N-No, not like this.
The "togashi is so lazy" complaint is so fucking stupid. Do you think anyone in 20 years will care about how long he took to write his story? Do you care about how long Tolkien took to write LotR?
Quality is all that matters in the long run and the fact that everyone bitches about no new chapters shows that people DO like it.
I'd rather have him take ages for every chapter as long as it's good. Better than writing garbage on a weekly basis.
Even if he isn't suffering from illness but is just a lazy faggot doesn't mean shit as he isn't profiting by being slow. He isn't in a service job, he could stop working today if he wanted. He doesn't need the money, not like he's getting anything from people here anyways
