It is similar, but a not as neat. Toriyama's artstyle and execution allow him to draw fights that feel really dynamic, yet not blurry or sloppy at all. Also Toriyama's blows feel heavier and with more impact. I like Nakaba's style though.

Fuck off; don't lie. The only part of Baki that isn't translated is the last arc of the first series, and we're actively working on it. In the meantime, there's the second season of the anime which covers that missing arc (and the first season, which covered bits that weren't covered before).

Really?
I admit I only watched the anime, so if it doesn't apply to the manga I won't complain, but I thought NnT has a better range and more subtle damage way of showing damage.
In DBZs case and especially when it was a no sell punch or just laser spam it rarely shows how much an attack has effect.
In NnT case for example when Galan attacked Escannor and the later didn't even flinch you still could see a cut of a few centimeter or when Ban used his fox hunt to try to steal Estarossas heart which didn't work you could see how it brused the surface of Estarossas skin and even damaged Bans hand.
I miss that in DBZ fights.

There are good scenes with fights IN them, the problem typically is that everything's so loose that weight feels like an issue in fast combat.

One Piece is actually really good at one type of fight though, fucking one hit punches. You can feel the weight really well.

You lose a lot of the earlier weight the blows carried in his art in this saga. I think the biggest problem is it's just rushed (he probably really just wanted to let DB die) and so the fight scenes don't have the space to breathe that a, say, 100-chapter long fight with Frieza enjoyed

All of Naruto, in the end, proved to be the best out of the Big Three.
Early phase was miles ahead the power creep and shitty convoluted mess that happened later, but still, it managed to be self-contained, had a start, a middle and a fucking end.
Bleach was never really relevant, One Piece was astounding at first but the lack of real progression and feeling of not really being planned forward are making it worse every week.

what are you talking about, OP always felt like it had a plan, what with the world building and things being brought up again 300 chapters later. I'll definitely grant you that it's been on the decline since after Sabaody, but it's still not godawful like Naruto nose-dived into and never pulled out of.

It's also kinda unfair to just give Naruto points for stumbling to the finish line, as if that's the hard part. It was a terrible ending.

C'mon dude, One Piece has legitimate issues, and I say that with it being my favorite shonen, but those two things are proof that you don't know shit about it.

One Piece is a colossal series, but that doesn't mean there's no progression. When they were fighting Kuro; Zoro was noticeably terrified that they cut off a bit of a cliff with their claws. Skip to him cutting steel with Daz Bones, skip to Zoro cutting through cutting entire buildings in Enies Lobby and Dragons and giant stone men since the timeskip. That's not even mentioning the actual plot, Luffy cleaned up the shitty east blue, helped a few kingdoms along the way which will become important in the Reverie arc I garuntee you, not to mention him declaring war on the government, punching the highest powers in the world, and breaking out of an iron clad prison for his brother, by which case the Marines managed to effectively neuter what was believed to be the strongest pirate crew in the world. Getting rid of Whitebeard and Roger's son, which would end up causing chaos since he owned a lot of turf. Not to mention that it brought about the climb of Blackbeard, who's strange ability of having two devil fruits has made him a scary and mysterious super power in the New World, potentially the strongest yonkou.

I talked a lot about that so I'll sum up the next point briefly. Oda introduced a seemingly meaningless whale for a character's backstory that didn't come up till 9 years later. Not to mention how well planned out and hinted at the void century and the ancient weapons.

One Piece as a long running shonen has a lot of little issues due to the monotony of going as long as it does and being familiar with how it tells its story. But a lack of progression or planning it is not.

Hunter x Hunter, Jojo, and Hajime no Ippo are the only shonen with consistently enjoyable fight scenes. Disregarding any pacing issues in "Drag-In-Ball Z," almost all of Toriyama's Z-Era fights just came down to which saiyan had the biggest power level along with which character could scream the loudest/disengage the largest energy beam, with all of the really unique attacks, such as Yamcha's Spirit Ball, Tien's Multi-Form, and the Evil Containment Wave becoming invalid before Raditz appears. No one in the manga fights like they have a brain or even applies a basic level of teamwork. So much pain could have been saved through a Solar Flare, Destructo Disk combination from Krillin, but the heroes will actually stand around and wait for the arc villains to finish their transformations.

As for the HST, I'm generally tempted to outright skip through the longwinded, repetitive fights from One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach.

Yu Yu Hakusho fights were weighed down by the fact that many of them, particularly throughout the Dark Tournament, involved random jobbers with no emotional connection to their opponents, but it was step up from how Toriyama began to do things, in that Kurama, and even Yusuke, regularly won their fights through the use of strategy. With Hunter x Hunter this became the general rule, and I can count the number of fights that seem pointless, such as Gon vs the Owl and Bat Chimera Ants, on one hand. Very good pacing, as well, and each of the characters possess very unique fighting styles, though this is something Togashi had managed by Yu Yu Hakusho, as well.

Come on, all it comes down to is Araki drawing some incomprehensible mess and then explaining to us what the fuck all of that meant with a shitton of exposition.

"Fight" against a henchman overshadowed by the one again Genthru. Hisoka vs the two spiders wasn't really a fight either, and we have no idea how he even dispatched either of them.

>Uvogin vs the Shadow Beasts
A stomp, but an entertaining stomp. Togashi just decided to go all out by coming up with the weirdest and most disgusting abilities. Toriyama, Kubo, or Kishimoto would have just used a bunch of generically powerful mid-bosses.

>Kurapika vs Uvogin
Big thing in this fight was Kurapika's use of a real chain to hide the actual nature of his nen. This was clever.

>Top kek you wish.
That Toriyama actually utilized more than a handful of characters and diversified the manner in which they attacked? I certainly do. What's weird is that he was actually going in the right direction with Future Trunks, an efficient, pragmatic fighter, only to take away his most notable weapon after a single fight, to make him just like every other jobber. He could have at least kept the Dodon Ray around; it's another beam, but its visually distinctive and given its status as more powerful than the Kamehameha, the lack of its appearance, much as with most actions performed by the fighters, made no sense.

There was no single explicit shark jumping moment, but many of the problems with Dragon Ball became more and more prominent as early as the Frieza Saga.

My Tsugumomo niggas. Never have I found such a well blended manga with divine lewdness, substantial plot, and just top tier art.

> it ended during the saiyan arc

Wtf why? I can understand wanting to end it after the Freeza or Cell arcs but not the Saiyan arc. So much is left unresolved.

Yes.

Big thing in this fight was Kurapika's OP ability Emperor Time which pretty much gave Uvogin no chance of winning with "strategy"
ftfy

>"Fight" against a henchman overshadowed by the one again Genthru.
Still a fight.

More fights that didn't have strategy.
Gon vs Hanzo, Killua vs Zushi, Kite vs Yunju, Phantom Troupe vs Chimera Ants(except for Shizuku fight), Chrollo vs Silva and Zeno etc

>That Toriyama actually utilized more than a handful of characters
This coming from someone defending HxH? When was the last time Kurapika and Leorio had a fight? Wait has Leorio even had a single fight in this series yet?

>diversified the manner in which they attacked?
Except Toriyama does exactly this, there are even examples in this thread it just not as prominent as series such as JoJo because Dragon Ball focuses is on martial arts not abstract abilities.

All in all your posts just reek of someone who doesn't remember much about the series.

>They aren't drawn or choreographed badly at all though
Yeah, yeah there are with few exceptions here and there.

Make more sense now?

You can take it completely seriously after a chapter or two if you're not consciously choosing to ridicule it. That being said, the specific page that the person you're replying to posted is abnormally bizarre even for the series.

>Simply "strategy" does not make it entertaining
This, lots of people act like a fight is only good if it's strategic which is stupid and narrow minded as hell. There are many ways to skin a cat.

I love Vegeta. He does straight away what everyone else is internally screaming at main characters.

Since every other series in here has gotten to do it, I might as well post a small part of one Baki fight sequence.

Don't you know? Complexity is quality, and things can only be good by being intellectual.

>>143001889
It's pretty good. Scanlations for the original are still ongoing (and are only 17 volumes into ~50), so you don't really need to worry about the sequel for a long time yet.

This thread still up, good

Not the best page you could have picked.

>>142959828
Nakaba doesn't produce the same amount of 3D depth to his scenes.
Toriyama has his stronger characters actually physically moving trough large landscapes, and he always shows how they moved.
Most mangakas has this problem where they are essentially using characters who don't move during combat, except for attacks that sends anything flying.

It gets repetetive since he has only a limited number of moves and perspectives with those scenes.
