- Anime War Arcs are trash. So why are War Arcs so popular in Manga? Just some new recommendations for how to write a good manga or anime war arc?
My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Naruto / Boruto and Jujutsu Kaisen have some of the worst anime and manga endings. What makes them terrible? Naruto set the example, so why did everyone start copying it? How will Jujutsu Kaisen save its ending? When will My Hero Academia End? Will Black Clover end on a high note?

waoh . . . epic video . . .
Attack on Titan is literally a military story. They can definitely have a war arc as an ending
Not only that, but war is used as a tool to showcase the theme of cycle of violence in the story.
The problem with many war arcs is that they're either put there just for the sake of putting it there because big war is common way to demonstrate that the story is reaching it's conclusion or that they're too long.
AoT doesn't have that problem because the final arc is 49 chapters long whereas in Naruto the final war arc is 186 chapters.
Other than the arc at the end of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, I don’t think I enjoy any other war arcs
Read kingdom. Also I think return to sheganshina is a considered a war arc. It's pretty peak
Also Marine ford (manga)
@@xandex69 Return to Shiganshina was good, but I thought Bertholdt and Reiner side of the fight wasn't the best. The tactics/decisions made on both sides were kinda forced to me; like Reiner trying to solo the Scout Regiment, the Colossal suddenly being a nuke, Armin's plan succeeding because Bertholdt decided "making it quick" was burning him to a crisp instead of just stopping the steam to splat him.
I'm not saying it wouldn't been better if it addressed these things, my issue is how staged and dramatized and forced half the battle felt. Even the way Hange came at the precise moment she needed to - that kinda stuff happening all at once at such a pivotal battle is fine by me, but not peak.
@@xandex69 The issue with the Marineford is that it got a lot of plotholes, since that stuff makes zero sense given modern context of the manga. The fact that no one used armament haki in that war is very telling how "planned" out the story of One piece is. Also Ace's death is very overrated considering that character was a mere cameo character we barely knew at the time before it spammed flashbacks in the post-war arc which is cheap, if it actually was a crew member that died then it would have been more impactful.
@@WieldMyWord I think you’re heavily underestimating the importance of Marineford.
If Ace was a nobody who had no bonds or relationships to any other characters outside of Luffy and Garp, what unfolded at Marineford wouldn’t have ever happened.
Even if a crewmate were captured and to be executed, what unfolded at Marineford still wouldn’t have even happened and its significance wouldn’t even mean remotely as much. There’s no guarantee that they’d even bother executing any of the Strawhats at Marineford except for Robin, which would’ve been redundant. Ace was set to be publicly executed for a different reason entirely.
Ace’s death was a tragedy to not only Luffy but many others. It was also a great display the series’s world building between the Pirates, Marines, Warlords, Admirals, and Emperors. Not everyone who was a warlord or marine wanted Ace dead (Garp, Koby, Helmeppo, Jimbe, Hancock, etc) and not everyone who was a pirate came with the intention to save him (Crocodile, Mr.1, Buggy & Mr.3 initially, etc) but it all worked together really well regardless because they had their own reasons for being there because of all of the other big names that were there to actually save Ace.
Luffy wouldn’t have been able to rally that many people together to save one of his crew outside of those on Impel down, but even that’s a stretch because if Ace wasn’t captured and sentenced to public execution, Jimbe wouldn’t have resigned his title as warlord and end up imprisoned in retaliation, Whitebeard wouldn’t have shown up to save Ace and therefore Crocodile would have little reason to even assist Luffy in the first place because he wouldn’t get the opportunity to kill Whitebeard. Even with Ace as his brother what guarantee would there have been that the entire Whitebeard pirate’s fleet would have cared to that extent? On top of that, none of the commanders except for Ace have any connection to ANY of the Strawhats so whatever sense of sentiment that was present would’ve been completely void.
Haki is a plot hole in itself but it doesn’t deter from the themes, drama and symbolism that was portrayed during Impel down and Marineford.
Honestly, they just need to be organized, they can be messy like in battle like shit being pulled out every now and then.
Although they shouldn’t be long as hell, they shouldn’t take like 10 years, in JJK they handle the Shibuya incident pretty well which is the beginning of a war arc
And if it’s gonna be a war arc, KILL OF SOME OF THE CAST, ITS WAR. ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE GONNA DIE.
Some characters get ass pulls and just live with little context even with context it’s a asspull
MHA and JJK having generational asspulls every chapter lol
@@SpareMango As a JJK fan I agree, Sukuna has too many asspulls, Gege is glazing him too wildly.
@@mumenrider1908 My anti soul damage technique I haven’t used since the Heian era is essentially most of chapter 252 (edit: it autocorrected to Harrison era)
@@SpareMango when the cast is about to kill Sukuna, he just goes "ah yes the [ASSPULL] i haven't used since the Heian era", just let Kenjaku's nuke fire off already so we can move on to the next plot point
@@The_Emperor823 OMG a character who's been around for 1000 years and has been shown to have more then one technique has a answer for a lot of the characters powers. This is bad criticism, this is the guy who has been hyped up as the main villian, if he didn't have the level of performance then it wouldn't feel earned to beat gojo or when they finally beat sukuna
the worst part of war arcs is introducing new characters that we don't care about and force us to watch them do stuff
I'll just assume that the complete lack of Bleach means it's considered a perfect war arc, and nothing more needs be said
I still prefer the lost agent arc but I still think it's good
Imagine being a jojo fan, happy this kinda shit doesn’t happen in the manga because the story resets every 100-150 chapters, with the final battle maybe taking up less than 10-20% of the story, and then jojolion happened.
While we may never know shonen pain, Jojolion’s final fight takes 2 years approximately between chapter 80 and 109 of the 110 chapter long manga. A mystery story. That releases chapters in months. Fuck.
Jojolion is trash lmaooo
Can't wait for part 10 to be a massive war arc with all villains and characters from all 9 parts
@@SpareMango what do you mean?
Please dear god no@@SpareMango
wdym what do I mean?
@@SpareMango why do you think its trash?
Attack on Titan was War Arc after War Arc though. War Within the Walls to get Historia on the throne, War to Reclaim Shiganshina, War against Marley, Then the Rumbling. By that logic you may as well blame Endless Gundam Wars of being guilty of this trope. Bleach's Arrancar Arc was supposed to be a war as well although it ended up being a 1-sided slaughter until Aizen actually fought.
I'm thinking of having a War Arc in my Shojo Series as the villains start a World War to feed the Big Bad with sweet suffering.The War Arc isn't supposed to be an epic struggle to eliminate the other side in this case it's merely something to be stopped & the villains are just in the way. End Game Saga in the series I'm making is probably closer to the traditional end of series war arc, although even then you aren't exactly my intended audience.
Gonna go ahead and comment about One Piece. To be fair, you did say "War Arcs" not "Final Wars". So it's free game. Marineford was great even though it was only a prelude to the real War. I think it's worth talking about just because it's a great example on how Wars can be properly executed in battle manga. It was well built up to from early on and Oda took his time setting up every character involved and managed to concluded all of the plot threads, themes, and character arcs in a satisfying way. The Final War in One Piece is also just getting started and so far it's off to an incredible start. Things are shaping up to be even better than Marineford. Oda said he wants to draw the best War Arc in manga so it may change the conversation on this topic somewhat.
wano act 3 meanwhile, is a very mixed bag
Marineford did get some flack back it the day, especially for the Infamous Luffy running up the stairs. Whoever you can't really call it a war to be honest but more like a skirmish and the get out of there. Whoever One piece do have many wannabe "war" arcs which drags the show down because of the length and tedious stuff.
The Final War arc for One Piece hasn't started in the least but Oda is building up and dare I say he has been building it up since Marineford.
@@pieperson444 Wano Act 3 I don't count as a war arc in the least. It's more of a raid. Hence "The raid of Onigashima" not "the war of/on Onigashima." but it really is quite cluttered but it does do better than say MHA.
@@WieldMyWord What stairs, lol. And the only problem really would be the anime for pacing and dragging. The manga was pretty straight forward and Marineford *IS* a war arc. Characters have literally called it that. Skirmishes *can be* wars.
Saying that there is no set up is extremely disingenuous, like todofam plotline has been built since the sports festival, shigaraki and deku since the 20th chapter, toga and ochako since the camp arc etc etc
y'all are just making up stuff I never said now lmfao. Toga ochako, shigaraki deku, todoroki family is a very very VERY tiny part of all of the things that have happened in the war arc
Bruh, this video is a prime example media illiteracy. I'm usually pretty tame in youtube comment sections but this dude's ability to understand what is happening in MHA is nonexistent.
I can see what he means but me personally i don't mind war arcs that are consistent with it's series or add more history and lore to an established world like bleach maybe one piece as well idk
That's basically what I said brother
@@SpareMango I appreciate that
belach war arc is even more trash bruh ichigo and his friends are inmortal they cant die
@@blacky8987 they aren't immortal but ok
I couldn't really put it into words, but this might explain why I often feel like recent shounen shit the bed in the end.
devilman crybaby 100% had the best "war arc ending", aint no way somebody is going to tell me otherwise
not a shounen
@@cheralukiran kid devilman is the father of the shounen XD
I'm really enjoying MHA's final arc. It might be one of few Shonen war arcs that I legitimately enjoy.
You enjoy main characters not dying in a war? 💀
@@DoctorRainer that's the only thing I dislike about the arc. Other than that, i enjoy it.
To each their own. I'm glad you enjoy it.
@@DoctorRainer final arc isnt the war arc
so you must be a 14 years old boy because you cant see it why that arc para super trash for real
im convinced he didnt watch attack on titan, there was a lot building up to the final arc and most of what he said is just nonsense 🤷
4:55 Literally JJK. "Ah my (blank) technique I havents used this since the heian era"
bro tried to sneak in rigby and mordicai fanfict and thought we wouldnt notice
I wanted y'all to notice
I’m an aspiring author this video was not only helpful but a little educational and gave me a lot of tips, guidance and good ideas to add to my books and their chapters/volumes. Thanks again and please do make more in the future !
So happy to hear this, I'm really glad I could help others out. Thank you!
i hope rent a girlfriend ends on a war arc
Nvm, another mofo thinking erens dogshi breakdown made him more "human"
LMAOOOOOOOO
what is it supposed to make him...?
Facts bro.
facts that was lame asf why crying for mikasa and his future man is just fking bulshit eren never saw mikasa like that and even if he really love her why da fucc you would think in love when you are bou to kill the world?
Actually One piece started the war arc and became massively popular because of it and then naruto tired to end the series with war arc and then that lead to other following it but i cant say they follow it because battle shounen where fate of the nations are on line war arc is eminent.
Its all about execution.
its also very common for battle shonen to have big scaling fights towards the end.
I feel the Mha part of this video was really disingenuous; regardless of how well it was executed, saying there was no build-up for the stuff prior is just flat out wrong. As early as the sports festival, it was already established that Ofa had vestiges of power by helping save Midoyria from Shinzou's mind washing; and when Ofa is supposed to be a power passed down by so many quirk users, it's unrealistic to expect Deku to only have super strength. Deku not utilizing his legs for combat also makes perfect sense, considering his idol mainly fought by punching, and he was under the impression he could keep spamming 100 percent smashes if he was in a pinch (while still being able to move with his legs).
I will admit, maybe the wars' been dragging on for a bit long as you said, but I'd rather have Horikoshi make the story he wants than be forced to rush due to deadlines. Yes, the cast is big, but I think to fully explore something so broad as herosim, you need a larger cast. I'm not saying you have to like it because I can definitely understand why you wouldn't; but that doesn't mean it's bad, and not nearly the worst war arc in shonen.
The thing is, Horikoshi hasn't been making the story he wants for a while; criticisms as early as the Overhaul arc seems to have led to this state we're in now, where he just wants the story over with instead of maintaining focus on, say, the female heroes like he did at the start.
@jackreacher7495 I'd argue the female characters have still gotten a good amount of love to them, even if they're a bit overshadowed by the male cast. Ochako vs. Toga is regarded as one of the best battle this arc, if not the series, and Ochako contributions to that fight definitely saved the Heros from being overwhelmed by the army of Twices. Nagant is very well written, Mt Lady's development is one of the best in the series, and Momo, Mirko, and Jirou have consistently put in work in both wars (Jirou was pivotal during the music festival, too)
Yea, I do think some things have been rushed like Spinner vs Shoji, but the pay off for Shouto and his family, Bakugo, Toga Ochako, etc. have all been fantastic.
@@slush7113 It's less about contributions for me, and moreso about the emotional investment the narrative has in them NOW versus at the start. Remember when we actually got inside Momo's head? Or Ochako had a fight that had next to nothing to do with Deku and their relationship? That's what pains me - clearly, Horikoshi wanted to make these girls characters as relevant and fleshed-out as the main boys, but - of course, Japan being Japan - that was as unpopular as it always is; young male demographics don't like seeing complex women, or women being more competent/stronger in a fight than a men. At least, that's the impression I get from battle shounen
@@jackreacher7495Dude, female characters were more important in this arc than in almost any war arc, why are you lying? mirko, nagant, ochako, jiro, camie, mt. lady etc etc
@@matsalleh1340 You're too stupid to understand my criticism.
Gintama's silver soul arc is my personal favourite war arc because it does so many great things that other ones don't
This ninja just claimed that Naruto invented War Arcs and everybody afterwards was copying. You cannot be THAT much of a narutard dude. lmao.
The trope of "everybody we met along the way coming together for the final battle" is one of the oldest tropes in storytelling period. Thats not even a shounen specific thing and even if it was One Piece did a War Arc first before Naruto did. Didn't Bleach's War Arc end before Naruto's as well? lol.
You are illiterate lol
@@SpareMangoYou're the one calling it the "Naruto effect" fam not me. lol.
Never said naruto invented war arcs lmfao you are illiterate and I criticized Naruto's ending multiple times
@@SpareMango@0:53 You straight up said that Naruto was the one that started the trend and everyone started copying it.
Invented is not remotely the same thing as popularizing a trend in the modern era
You are illiterate lol
True, I agree overall. I think one of the issues plaguing a lot of these mangas is the fact that it's on a deadline. We can criticize it and say how it should have been a lot easier because it's from an outside perspective, but it's probably hell having to write, storyboard and draw all of it in one week for years. Compare that to novels which usually don't have a deadline in comparison and they're a lot more tightknit I'd say.
this was the video that got me to sub, glad to see it reuploaded and back
Thank you for the support🤝🤝I fixed some stuff to make it better bc I know it's a good video
I've grown exhausted by tournament and war arcs. When an it's an action show with fighting and a subplot, I'm set. When it's every character fighting, watching fighting, or waiting to fight, I get so bored!
JJK fell off. Now its just Sukuna fighting background characters every week. At this point im waiting for Itachi or All Might to show up and fight him tbh
5 years? It's just been 2 years
It's comment bait
5 years 50 chapters year with breaks = 225ish max chapters
MHA is at 198 and going strong
@@SpareMango bro skipped dark hero and ua traitor arc
@@matsalleh1340that wasn’t a war arc, nor a vigilante arc, nor a traitor arc. Felt wanted to protect those he cared about because he found out he was being hunted, so he decided to fly solo with only the help of his closest mentors. That’s not being traitorous, not vigilantism, nor a war.
That is just a prelude to war. Nothing more. Nothing less
Why wanting to have a chatarsis battle in the war arc ? War is supposed to be gigantic, chaotic,life threatening.
Nah fire forces ending was pretty bad and some of the fights were worse like the fire fox girls.
Fire force wasn’t really an “ending”. Kind of was in a way but it IS a prequel to another story.
I cannot comprehend how he can pride fire force, lol
It's not that bad and has a lot of cool moments. Arthur v dragon is one of the greatest fights in manga.
It's definitely rough (I think I mentioned that in the video) but the overall structure pacing and plot was good, mainly that it was very strongly built up to and earned yet also brief, which were the main points.
7 godly superpowers? None of the OFA users quirks are even that great on their own. I agree the pacing is bad, and the characters randomly coming in ruins the moments a bit, but it seems like you already don't like My Hero Academia as is. So I'm not really gonna treat this as seriously.
Nice video, and I could speak about the AOT and Naruto sections, but that'd be too much to type.
If they set up that there were other quirks that transfer early on it would be fine. In fact it would make the show 1,000x better if the entire time he had to learn to control new quirks and use them in new ways instead of just figuring out a slightly different way to punch or kick.
It was clearly a retcon. I don't like MHA but I've been reading it since the start nearly 10 years ago and I used to a long time ago. I really liked the villains getting their own arcs but it quickly went downhill when the heroes came back.
Thank you for the support! I appreciate how calm and fair the feedback was too.
I really hope this improves
war arcs exist as the end of a build up that lasted the entire anime. I can make a pass for Demon slayer as they had 3 of the upper moons being killed, an entire training arc, and then the war arc, which lasts 70 chapters. The reason it is so long is because they have to allow all the fightscenes, as well as the flashbacks because ds sure loves doing those
The video was great, I really would like to see more. Editing and stuff is dope
Thank you king it means a lot
Ignore the mha fans everywhere. We are still parasocially connected to the series.
I don’t really get the criticism for the MHA Final War Arc having so many characters participating. Not everyone’s favorite characters are Midoriya and Bakugou, and since the series is wrapping up it’ll probably be the last time most of these other characters show up, and I think giving them a little sendoff is nice. Although it would definitely have been better to establish them earlier. To me it felt like Horikoshi was slowly going through Class 1-A and giving them small character arcs (Kirishima, Iida, Jiro) before just tossing it and moving straight to the end.
The AOT ending was perfect and just added to eren's character, just because eren doesn't speak throughout the last arc doesn't mean it is bad, him choosing his own people over the entire world and him suffering alone was something that is a masterful storytelling and should be appreciated more,otherwise I do agree on most series have war arcs that are absolute shit.
I need more war arc like Code Geass.
the payoff was just french kiss

I love how I know the situation with Lia from Itzy and you just randomly bring that up, that caught me way off guard 😂
Honestly it makes sense for MHA ever since the Paramount liberation were introduced and Shigaraki swooped in to become their leader which gave him a lot of resources and makes sense for the plot and scale
Also the training Arcs make Deku powers set a lot more interesting and diverse in my opinion
All this shit and you didn't flame the culling games arc of jujutsu for 30min? I know it's not exactly a "war arc" but for all intentions it really is.

Suprsied to see tybw not being mentioned here. Its a peak arc just the ending needs to be fixed in anime , its expanding a lot on the world and lore , karakura is a another good war arc but also has too many fights witg the highest highs

1:51
bro had to hit him with "i read the manga"
A big war/battle to end an epic action/fantasy work is common. Shonen isn't the only one to do that. Look at Marvel with the avengers, the lord of the rings, game of thrones, the wheel of time, Harry Potter,...
So the idea of the war arc isn't bad it's the execution that matters.
Of course, for mha so far, with the weekly perspective it's a disaster, so maybe when it will be finished, with a few step back it will be more digest.
Naruto war arc wasn't bad at all. Only the Kaguya part sucks. I mean thematically it was well written. Naruto Theme was the cycle of hatred. And we saw how the multiples war in Naruto fueled this cycle. So having all the ninja nation coming together as one in order to face a common threat in a big epic war so that at the end of the day , the cycle of hatred will be broken, it's a good idea.
For jjk, I don't even know why you talked about it. The culling game wasn't the final arc of the manga and it wasn't a war. It was a big royal rumble free for all. So of course fights can be interrupted at any time by the arrival of a New characters. That's the whole concept of the culling game.
As for characters development in jjk, I think it handled pretty well. Not all characters get treated well but most of them got it right.
I hated the final arc of attack on titan not because of the war but because of the treatment of some characters that made no sense according to me.
@@shimaphys No it wasn't
To me it's very much like the structure of Lord of the Rings. Group of misfits, power of friendship, magical stuff and getting stronger and then war arc to defeat evil and bring back the peace
Black clover is far superior in writing to me, if it had the animation and music that mha got, it would be no question which is objectively better.
No hate to mha though.
I think Naruto's war arc was quite decent, and taking separate sections as separate arcs, some of them can be in the higher rankings of the Naruto arcs.
Kishimoto had already built up to a lot of what was to come in the arc and Naruto & Madara's entry made the arc quite engaging, the anime obviously did butcher a lot with the pacing and fillers, I'm pretty sure they made up a portion of Gai's backstory, which was less than 10 pages with a beautiful transition of his POV seeing his father and the next page him unlocking it.
It, like anything had it's flaws. The initial war was probably forgetable for people, especially watching the anime and the Kaguya retcon which was so blatantly a way to create a sequel, though I think Kishimoto was able to execute it in an okay manner with what all he had, considering this was a terrible idea.
And in the end, the valley of the end, which was a great ending to the story and the franchise.
Until obviously they made a sequel.
It was rushed shonan wanted kishimoto to end at chapter 700 and kishimoto was burn out as well because working in the weekly manga for 15 years and he said he had to cut a lot of things to meet the deadline
@@ayhamahmad2277 it's funny how they want kishimoto to make a sequel but also have him end on a certain limited number
Shibuya arc war is awesome too,my bro. Nice channel❤
Thanks g I appreciate it
1:43 i bet he felt really smart after saying it.
Benimaru was so goated, "You guys really thought i was that weak"
Fire force is in the same universe as my all time fav. I should watch it. (Also I did guess it)
FINALLY, FIRE FORCE GETS RECOGNIZED FOR SOMETHING
THAT SHIT WAS PEAK
I think 86 was one of the only shows I've seen pull it off well, and only because the main characters weren't overly pivotal in the war, and the war didn't begin during the show and didn't end either. They portrayed war from the perspective of the soldiers really well imo
Interesting that Fire Force is used as an example of a good shounen here. While here i am dropping the anime because i realized it had a sht ton of issues
Yeah season 3 is mid while the ending is a lot better
Did he say jjk and 1v1 in the same sentence?
Even in cartoons this a trend since Gravity Falls Weirdmaggedon
i believe the mangakas and editors prioritize weekly ratings over character developement, hence war arcs are so appealing since any and all characters can be brought back and people eat it up.
And how much the character is popular if the character is too popular they won't allow you to kill did you know that kishimoto actually wanted to kill neji and they others in the sasuke rescue arc but they forced him to keep them alive
@@ayhamahmad2277 okay that is new info for me, but i did know that kishimoto wanted to kill either neji or kiba for the war arc, if kiba died, naruto wouldve married sakura instead, but kishimoto decided to kill off neji so naruto married hinata.
@@solidsnake8480 Naruto was supposed to end with sakura they have more screen time and moments than hinata hinata barely exists in the manga the only reason she ended with Naruto because she was popular character because of fillers the studio love her so much that they give her more moments in fillers and they hate sakura so much that they cut her dielog and moments in the manga they probably forced kishimoto to change
@@ayhamahmad2277 a few weeks ago i left a comment on the naruto subreddit saying something along the lines of "Maturity is realising that Naruhina had zero chemistry" lmao, but yea sakura was shelved mostly due to fans hating on her, studio pierrot only responded to the fans since their view of sakura was marred by what a piece of shit she was back in the early days, something kishimoto tried to rectify. atleast Naruto the Last tried to make Naruhina work so i can respect that.
@@solidsnake8480 kishimoto wasn't involved with the movie just read the manga and you well see the difference in the anime they cut a lot of her dielog and moments in the manga
Wait, is the thumbnail true? Naruto's war arc lasted for 300 chapters? It felt so much shorter *quick googling* okay, all that I can find is in the anime it lasted for over 200 episodes, including the filler episodes, but the most I see from the manga is it lasted 80 chapters (which, if it's true, it's an alarming difference between chapters and episode & certainly didn't help much in their defense about milking Naruto too much)
exaggeration for dramatic effect but naruto's final arc is about 184 chapters and MHA's is 198 (and going)
Exaggeration, but the war arc is from chapter 516 to 700. Mha's is just about 200 now, thumbnail is mostly for dramatic effect to get the point across that they go on way too long.
@@SpareMango how is it 198 chapters are what arcs are you inclusing in this
I agree with the title but the content of the video........ fire force is worse than even one piece, what are you talking about...
I don't think you listened very closely
@@SpareMango I did and fire force is literally unbearable, I fail to find it as a sign of good writing, more like a sign of... ugh... a unique sense of taste?
I also said fire force is kinda mid, I think I even said the ending was rough and had unresolved threads, I mainly was referencing how the entire manga built up to it and it was over fast in 50-60 chapters (MHA is at 198 and naruto was like 184)
Mid piece is funny though LMFAOOOO
as a massive my hero academia fan (its my favorite anime ) i just want to say you are bias and nitpicking i win bye bye
Show peaked at overhaul arc
@@jibes2239 no it did not bruh ill be respectful but in my opinion this show had each arc be better than the last and its peak is in the current arc rn in the manga
jujutsu kaisen falls in this trap too in this last arc the fight against sukuna
I sorta enjoyed Fire Force because I honestly didn't give a damn about the fanservice character, didn't know other people see it as 7/10, id probably give it an 8 for likeable characters, story, power system and the like, maybe an 8.5 from the brownie points of making a real War Arc, but everyone is entitled to have their own opinion 👍
Other people act like it's 3/10 lol
@@SpareMango damn below mid is crazy for a manga with an actually pretty good ending 💀
Why stick the moedecai x rigby in??? Sjajajsjs (i realise wAs a random gag to draw attention for people to comment on it, drawing interactions from comments. I have fallen for your tricks)
lollll
I hate war arcs even more because shit like Third shinobi world war from Naruto and Fake karakura town arc from Bleach gave me a fatigue that I can't get rid of for years. I've end up dropping Mob Psycho 100 on World domination arc just because of this fatigue that I've get every time I see some of this shit in anime.
Honestly this is all battle Shounen due to the scale and escalation of conflict
13:34 1v1 brawls? In JUMP-Kaisen?💀😂
This was made before Gojo came back lol
Never disagreed more with a video😂 I think u personally just don’t like war arcs. I love them . It’s like saying tournament arcs are bad. Its war arcs are a stable of the genre at this point.what u complain about is not a bad trope it’s just cherries picked poor writing . A lot of shonen suffer more poorly writing because of deadlines and how long running they are. That’s the real problem . And stop being an npc and hating on MHA it fell off but the first seasons were gas everyone forgets that
I agree that War arcs aren't necessarily bad of course since it's a writing device
Marineford best war arc in manga. Its not overly drawn out and is hype all the way throufh😊
5:41 h-HUH?!
LMAOOOO you're the first to ever notice that
@@SpareMango Though I was hallucinating because no one was talking about it 😭😭
Marineford. The War at Central (FMAB), and The War against the Fire Nation. The only three war arcs ive truly liked
Nahhh jjk war arc pretty cool. AoT too. Naruto bored me to death tho. Never finished it.
Kingdom enters the chat...
In all seriousness tho it may just be the underatted war mangas out there. True peak
Instead of war, why not a 1v1 beating sessions as we watch the main antagonist beat every character and rule established in the series.
Thanks, Cell saga- i mean gege
FIRE FORCE MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think it depends on the writer and how it's used
MHA final arc is going for long for sure
I do wonder why there’s alot of war arks
Solution,
war is not a arc
Its a setting
More manga/anime need to be willing to kill off important characters for plot progression
If the editor allow them to do that the mangaga doesn't have freedom to control the story if the character is too popular they won't allow it to die did you know that kishimoto wanted to Neij and the others in the sasuke rescue arc but they forced him to keep them alive
13:37 so few💀? I can list multiple fights in the show that were interrupted or cut short.
Mahito fled from nanami and yuji
Gojo blicked Hanami I mean dude like u even show that there when u make this point.
And dint get me started on shibuya
Toji fushigoro of all people came back while the beast dude was fighting the two boys and the old lady
Toji 3rd partied in megumi, old dudes, maki, and nanami’s fight with dagon
Toji somehow just realizes megumi is is son and commits senpoku
Jogo comes out of no where and murks old dude, and badly injures maki and nanami out of no where and iirc they were also finna deal with toji.
Sukuna and jogo interrupt the fight that would’ve happened proper with panda and higuruma with the two geto glazers
Sukuna popped in during the fucking blood bath that r been mahoraga vs haruta
Nanami treats haruta like the bitch he is after he was finna pack nobara and before that he wasnt involved in their fight iirc
And don’t get me started on fuckin yuji and todo vs mahito.
While some of these interruptions were good for the plot they still happen nonetheless which contradicts with ur point here. I mean my god if u r going to make this point at least put more care into the clips u use i mean my god, the clip wasn’t even in the middle of the fight. Gojo just violated Hanami.
Also u mention here people running ones. Have u not even seen the show. Did u just see one clip of the show and then call it day and then just het another clip for the video. Like jjk is filled with jumpings while there are fades that are ran one on one. A good portion of the fights are jumpings. Thats why the fanbase even call it jumpjutsu kaisen.
Never said every single fight is a long one on one brawl lol tf
I said it has a lot of those fights and they're good examples for how other series should format fights
Never once mentioned anything about cutting fights short, 1/2 of your comment is unrelated to anything I said in the video lol. In 1/2 of the interrupted fights the fights were basically over.
@@SpareMangoyo btw a response video came out calling you out about your opinions on the war arcs
lol
@@SpareMango video is called I love war arcs sparemango response
I'm aware
i barely comprehended half of that.
also, i watched Naruto and Soul Eater. and as a fan of both i ask you this with sincerity: what the FUCK is going on with Fire Force? just spoil me with all the details so i don't need to read weird cringey fan service crap. 'cause like, i'm very confused as to why it appears to just be "hey! what if Naruto War Arc storytelling, plus Soul Eater visuals, but everyone and everything is on fucking fire?!"
(also you forgot to mention Hellsing. it also ends with a war arc. literally WWIII, kinda. (actually it's really just, WWII, again. but this time there's vampires))
5:42 what the fuck am i looking at
Bro finally made a decent vid
even twilight had a war arc lmao
For the aot part, eren crying is a huge tonal shift since we had him crying for the kid 131 for the massacre he was going to do. This is not how you write stakes or the levels to make someone breakdown. Eren never cried for mikasa in the ice place nor when he almost died the first time. The author said he saw her as a mother figure. He never showed this being a thing. Also him sending the titan to kill his mom creates a paradox because how can he be there in the beginning and how was this the best option where if Bert got eaten then paradise would have 3 titans to use to create a peace for his friends
Anyway just wanted to say I enjoyed your video and i subscribed, can’t wait to see your channel grow
The My Hero Academia takes are the only thing I incredibly disagree with, hating on the author bring back characters makes complete sense 😭 if he didn't there'd be so many questions as to where they are, and the characters themselves aren't bad or unnecessary in 99% of cases. Also the general hate on MHA in this video is kinda getting old im still waiting for someone to bring up something actually applicable to the series, other than the lack of character deaths. And saying the side characters are underdeveloped? Bakugo, Shoto, Hawks, All Might, Eraserhead, Uraraka, literally all of the villains, even fucking Gentle Criminal, and ESPECIALLY Endeavour and Deku are all incredibly well developed. It's impossible to ask the author to FULLY flesh out every single character in the show since the world he's created is so big. I don't mind the hate but not when it's just unnecessary wave riding 😭
Other than that great video essay, enjoyed the editing
not gonna lie the narrator is making sukuna's sudden abilities sound like ass pulls when in reality he has been hyped up to be this overwhelmingly powerful curse so it's really just the fanbase freaking out because he has more than one technique eve n though the show case isn't the best
Fire Force ending chaps felt so Underwhelming to me
THE ONNE PIECE!!!! THE ONE PIECE IS REEEEAAAALLLLL!!!!! [mute me no balls]
I really like the later parts of fire force
Marineford and Fake Karakura Town are both really strong war arcs imo
One piece literally had a war it's called marineford war or summit war cmon now wano it's disputed more of a raid then a war.
I never mentioned one piece brother
@@SpareMango one piece marineford did end the pretimeskip to begin the postimeskip. Radical shift with luffy makes it a greay war arc.
I never mentioned one piece brother
@@SpareMango but you could have tho
Chimera Ant arc: BASED
I disagree with all of the Mha hate. I agree that the final war arc definitely fell off but saying that the stain arc and the tournament arc are bad is just hating. Not to mention that you completely missed over 2 of MHA's best arcs the overhaul arc and dark hero arc.
You didn't pay attention to the video lol
@@SpareMango I did. If i said something wrong im sorry but i dont think i messed up anywhere.
Never mentioned stain or tournament and I said that MHA actually has a few very good moments/arcs like MVA
a character being rectoned is not "showing real human emotion" we have seen eren show real emotion, we have seen eren show real human emotion, when he was willing to give up his life to find a solution to the conflict he was showing his real human emotions, when he cried in fron of ramzi he was showing human emotion, when he refused to lay down his life and that of all subjects of ymir like zeke wanted he showed real human emotion, the trashy ending was due to eren as a character not going all in nor all out, what isayama did was get cold feet midway, what eren acomplished by killing 80% of the world would have been achieved by not killing 80% of the world and thats the problem, the story creates an imaginary enemy in mindless eren for no reason at all cuz just for the sake of giving the alliance or more meta, the conflict resolution squad the good guys side of the narrative which wouldnt be bad if isayama didnt block that path in the story and made eren as the de facto leader of paradis have to take a extreme stance, so the supposed good guys are given time to shine after the the story passes the point of no return menaing the beginning of genocide so what is shoved down the readers throat is a solution to a problem that already happened, the worst part is that eren wouldnt need to kill any civilians for to achieve the same result as in the ending of the manga, he could have lifted the curse of becoming titan for all subjects of ymir and have lived the rest of his normal human life span with mikasa whi he supposedly loved to no end, you cant chalk it up to "oh but he gained godly powers and suffered a mental breakdown" you dont conduct a genocidal rampage for days on end and excuse yoursef with that argument, eren as a character is killed after his last message to the subjects of ymir because after that he puts in danger the friends that he supposedly would do anything for and also was trying to frame as heroes to the outside world, like wtf is that logic and lore wise path time is irrelevant to real time so eren could have simply passed his supposed mental breakdown in paths and just dedicated 10 iq point to think what would be the best course of action to give his friends long happy lives, zeke didnt went crazy in path like eren and there is no other difference to eren than the founding titan power which lets be real aint that mentally challenging as the only power that could drive him crazy was the attack on titan which he already had and it didnt get amped or anythng the whole argument of breaking down byt having godly powers is bullshit
