YYH is a truly shonen, the king of shonen. HxH is another thing, a shonen trying to break the structure

Because This one has exiting figths, supernatural powers, suspense between the figths, comedy, and spiritual powers, and not much romance. The story is excelent, it's not cliche, and we alredy love the reigan, and the kokuriuja. Even my imotou watched this anime with me, and she loved it (she is not so fan of seeing animes all the time).

Greed Island is the base of why Gon and Killua goes overpower in anime... Biske nen training. If you dont understand this and the effort that Togashi put on creation of RPG card game, go watch OP and be happy
>>
>>141963888
>that word is used a lot
By other retards who have just discovered this site, yes.

It's generic as all fuck. Even the main villain was just a rip-off of Frieza with his 1% power bullshit. Only difference is he was a roid monkey.
>>
>>141963957
>frieza rip off
so you didn't pay attention at all?
>>
>>141963828
huh, are you implying I think shounen is inherently of a lesser quality than seinen or whatever? I have respect for all those series I listed, I just don't think YYH is as good as them. I only responded to the same tone as the OP (hope you're not him) who said this is the best anime, which would of course be a taller order than being better than the best shounen, since it's an entire medium. YYH is alright, sorta decent, HXH is great though.
>>
>>141963888
He cant say anything, Togashi again teaches how a tournament arc should be.
>>
>>141963996
Tell me how his power structure (i,e. going up in percentages and still being overwhelmingly powerful in the small percentages) isn't directly taken from Freeza.
>>
>>141963735

thats why is so good anon, because the MC isnt full of asspulls and other stupid shonen shit

Because he is a demon based solely on strength. He has nothing else but raw phsical power and that is it. That is how he learned how to control his massive amount of strength so he didn't go around breaking every fucking city he was in. It's called a limit frieza wasn't the first to do it and he won't be the last. Besides that his reasons for being a Villian and reasons behind everything he does has more depth then all of DBZ(not db) villains combined.
>>
>>141963575
This is true, but people who prefer YYH are nostalgiafags and shounenbabbies who think the more 'bro' a character is, the better. Never mind character development, depth or nuance, if he's a cool, likable guy then he's better written apparently.

I'm actually watching this now and the show annoys me a little, I like the characters and the fights but the convenience bullshit is turned up to 11. I know a lot of shows do it, but it feels a little lame when the only thing that allowed Yuusuke to win against Rando was pond scum that he got in his ears. Or the fact that Kuwabara wasn't actually killed and the whole tournament was basically an elaborate suicide for Toguro.
>>
>>141964096
Strength being the basis for his power doesn't differentiate him enough from Freeza in regards to the MC's struggle against him. Freeza's power came from Ki, but the concept is the same on a fundamental level. It's like giving a BMW a different coat of paint and then parading it around as a Ferrari.

A single character trait doesn't make him a complete ripoff especially since he has a backstory unlike Frieza and his actual personality is completely different than Frieza. How can you not see that?
>>
>>141964549
>getting upset based kuwabara gets to live
get the fuck out of here a lot better then gon and kito surviving
>>
>>141964607

I like Kuwabara but still doesn't change the fact that the writing was oddly convenient.
>>
>>141964549
It annoyed me with Toguro, but then when Sensui finally died and it was revealed he secretly had cancer and he also just wanted to get killed by someone strong. It's like an anime written by Justin Trudeau.
>>
>>141964749
Toguro wasn't portrayed as a bad guy. He even felt sorry in the previous arc when he was torturering hei's sister he even said this. He just think strength is all that matter so he would do whatever it took to bring out yusakes full power. There was no reason to kill kuwabara Toguro had nothing to gain from it as long as yusake belived it. It probably helped Kuwbara ran head first like a man.

As far as Battle Shonen goes
Dragon Ball
Shaman King(manga not the shitty anime)
>>
>>141965006
Dragon ball, please... YYH did everything better than DB
>>
>>141965006
>Shaman king
Oh you mean the one were they couldn't even fucking win? I don't read shounen to see the assholes win. I read it for T&A hype and beat downs
>>
>>141962445
Lel, it's not even its author's best work.
>>
>>141964845

I can kind of buy that but it still seems kind of weak. Even with Toguros little moments he was built up to be this monster that wanted to be the strongest he could be, and the second kuwabara gets up from his "death" they explain away everything by saying he really just wanted a fitting death. At the very least they should have sprinkled in some more characterization to sell that
>>
>>141965072
If it wasn't for DB YYH would not even exist
Checkmate atheist

And YYH definitely didn't do comedy and adventure as well as DB anyways
>>141965127
But they did win
If they killed Hao(which Yoh stated he could train in hell to become stronger than him) he would just come back 500 years later anyways
>>
>>141965246
They didn't win though hao just put it on pause for a little while. The last chapter even states when they are adults they still have to keep hao pleased.
>>
>>141965284
They did win but it came at a price
After 500 years Hao will probably no longer wanna be a Shaman King anyways and will just pass on so the world is spared

Killing Hao would have been an underwhelming way to end the series considering he's spent like a 1000 years trying to become Shaman King anyways and got killed twice before achieving it(both times being betrayed by his own family)

It would also go against the message of the series and against Yoh's character

Sure it's a sort of sad/bittersweet ending but it's kind of refreshing to see an ending like this on a Battle Shonen

Flowers never ever happened btw

>>141965072
The only thing YYH did better than Dragon Ball was the anime adaptation

He's exactly how I imagined Yusuke would be as a parent if Keiko died in childbirth or something.
