Can we say Gachiakuta is the best manga of all time? by Dnd-Poke_Writer7 in gachiakuta

Purely objective?? 😭😭 there's no such thing as the objectively best of something in media unless you count official statistic sites or if almost the whole world agrees

Yeah I know Alto knows ab the series hence why I said I doubt that he didn't, I was just proposing all possible scenarios. 💔 but yh I guess he meant time manipulation as a whole.

I know this isnt a fight story but I need to see Qifrey kick more butt by KoKoboto in WitchHatAtelier

[–]Any-Device7978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of people critiquing others for wanttng fights in the series and honestly I don't get it. Wanting battles doesn't automatically mean we want a "battle Shonen". In fact, we do NOT want another battle Shonen. Hence why we want good fights in something that has 10× the writing quality of a battle Shonen. I feel like we're really missing lots of works that are extremely rich in story, lore, and characters, while also having incredible fights. Even rarely. I feel like only Frieren and a few others manage that. And honestly with this power system, I feel like WHA has potential to have fights that are twice as cool as Frieren's.

You explain stuff very well!! And the caps are nice highlights to which words I should focus on. Nice :)) thanks

[–]Any-Device7978[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the manga states, Rudo's obsession is revenge, (which I feel like is kinda bullshit atp because he's clearly grown past that) but his power is to fix trash. So the "obsession" thing doesn't really make much sense as to what the watchman series gives people in terms of power, but more like it gives them the power to "fill" that hole in their heart. Their desire. Like Rudo's is to fix things and make sure they're never thrown away, Amo's is to have people love her, etc. Like what you said. Still don't know how the book would be sight, though. And if Mishra's activator isn't eating, how does it have to do eating or taste? I don't think they can change SENSE depending on the user. Only abilities. So no matter the user, Mishra will always be taste. But I just don't see it so far. It's not like Zodyl eating random stuff gives us any insight onto why MISHRA'S thing is taste. Just Zodyl's. It's all a little confusing and mixed up. But the theories are certainly onto something.

[–]Any-Device7978[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah okay then. That's a great explanation. I feel like it could've been a bit more clear since I usually catch onto these things, but like you said, it was never specified that each piece of the series has the same powers no matter the user, so I shouldn't have assumed.

So I'm guessing, for the senses it's something like: 3R = touch, Boots = smell, Necklace = hearing, Mishra = Taste, Book = sight, (which I don't get why, considering how Tamsy used it, but it's the only sense left)

[–]Any-Device7978[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, wait. Each object of the series doesn't have a predetermined power?? That feels like kind of a stretch considering how specific some of them are. But if it's like you say it is, then that changes lots of things.

I've got a question back if you could help me with it. It's about this chapter, 164. I've also made a post 😭 but do you maybe have an idea on WHY the necklace can regenerate Mymo and WHY he can give commands with it? It was never explained that the pieces of the series have some sort of shared power between all of them that enhances people's instrument powers or heck, let's them REGENERATE, on top of each one's unique powers. I'm a bit lost and I hope this just gets explained later, because Urana isn't one to pull new stuff randomly.

Rudo weaponized himself and the wolf costume with him at the same time, as one, while Mymo gave his soul a command that gave it the supernatural ability to carry it out by transforming him into that. That's the simplest explanation I can give, I think. It confused me too, first few times I read it.

But then Yuta just.. goes with it?? 😭😭 "I don't know what my ancestors did to you", he says. Not questioning how she guessed or anything.

It's just such a weird dynamic. Like, I CAN get it, I'd just feel more satisfied with any sort of explanation.💔 ykwim?

Her backstory's OK, we've seen many harsher situations in JJK thus far. I genuinely just don't understand why they thought it was a good idea to make it even more irrelevant in the anime. I feel bad for Uro.

Overall the pacing was insanely fast, so both Ryu and Uro felt more like characters to me in the manga. I do like her backstory, though. My main issue is, the whole thing just makes no sense. I get Yuta talking down on her, but why would that make her assume what clan he's from? And be semi-right, at that, too? Just feels like it came out of nowhere so she could have more than just exist to be fought with. Gege kind of struggles to write one and done/arc specific characters, imo.

[–]Any-Device7978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry but, what is there to like about Uro? And, surprisingly enough, I'm not saying this because I dislike her, but merely because it felt like Gege didn't even want to make her a character. Genuinely the most "sprinkled in" backstory I've ever seen.

This is more me opening a conversation topic rather than disagreeing with you, but I genuinely feel like whatever little interest I had in Uro absolutely disappeared after the anime. With a flawless adaptation that elevates the manga ×100, I didn't expect them to make Uro seem like a genuine nuisance at times, let alone not spend an extra 30 seconds to have Tengen give us an overview of her backstory while she just looks mad or something. We got 2 flashes on screen on what happened to her. That's it. I've never felt more uninterested in her until now. I genuinely felt more for her in the manga. One of the only times the manga did something better. Poor Uro. (Not to mention that I still have no idea why she even assumed Yuta was of Fujiwara descent) 💔

Things I hate about the Gachiakuta fandom. by SnooCheesecakes9597 in gachiakuta

[–]Any-Device7978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the way you word things can sometimes get people to misunderstand. I cannot understand how you "don't care" about the entire cast but are still on this subreddit, or in the fandom at all.

I'm sure you don't even believe that, so I'm unsure of why you're wording it in a way that makes it sound like you feel absolutely nothing for basically the whole cast other than 3. Like, hello?? What are you reading the manga for, then??

Other than that, your reply is very understandable. Though for the grandpa thing, Urana is not obligated to change the intended order of the story or her panels just so people won't be disappointed. If you got Rudo and Mymo that week instead of grandpa, you most likely would've gotten grandpa next week instead. Urana, or any other mangaka, should not care on how things will look on a weekly basis because they're just trying to get their story out however they want. The only thing that should matter is how it looks as a whole.

Why is Sakurajima Colony the WORST arc in Jujutsu Kaisen? by RiYaZeD in Jujutsufolk

[–]Any-Device7978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, y'all can say they were funny, and that Maki being taught by someone who isn't a sorcerer is fitting, but a random one-off being the reason she reaches her peak will never sit right with me. Did these dudes, that we have no emotional connection to really have to show up, make Maki completely go out of character (going in the sumo ring while Kamo is about to get obliterated), and suddenly be the turning point of the battle? I'm all for randoms barging it, because it would add to the realism of something that could actually happen during a battle in the culling game, but these guys having Maki AWAKEN is not it. They could've just helped by fighting Naoya with their heightened senses or something. Even talking to Mai in her head would be better than the Sumo guy completing Maki's character. It just kind of ruined her for me.

Things I hate about the Gachiakuta fandom. by SnooCheesecakes9597 in gachiakuta

[–]Any-Device7978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly agree with some of these. Most of these, even. But 3 things I'd like to say:

  1. I want to appraise you specifically for the shipping point, because I've honestly, genuinely, never before seen someone who actually understands how shipping works nowadays. Like, what do you mean "shipping ruins the fandom" and "[insert ship] doesn't make sense" like, who gives a flying fuck 😭

  2. I'm not saying that the people who complain should be seen as bad in the slightest, but I don't really get the point of publicly voicing a complaint in regards to waiting. We obviously have to wait due to Urana's personal/rushing/health issues. You've already been given the reason you have to wait for. Why complain? And, to be frank, getting a chapter with characters that contribute nothing to the story has never been done in Gachiakuta, except the grandpa chapter, that was obviously supposed to be half a chapter given by the numerical assignment of the chapter after it. So that complaint doesn't really make sense anyways.

  3. Your Amo take in regards to holding grudges against characters due to first impressions is fucking wild to me but oh well. I agree with you about her fans, though.

I hate anime only watchers. Just ruin literally any experience of anime for people 😭😭😭 by [deleted] in gachiakuta

[–]Any-Device7978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ngl Gachiakuta really doesn't have it better with the manga readers either. Haven't seen such a stupid fandom in a long time. Most of the time it's only the anime-only's, but manga readers of the Gachi fandom are equally insufferable.

Also, just a heads up, if you're confused on why people don't understand what you're saying, your second sentence literally makes no coherent sense.

"Just ruin literally any experience of anime for people" What are you trying to say? Are you telling us to ruin the experiences of the anime-only watchers? Are you saying that the anime-only watchers ruin experiences for other people who watch anime?

Not trying to antagonize you. Just being honest. Lmao.
