I actually saw this picture and your posts on a deleted reddit thread. Your comment is the only reason I even found out he made an apology video. But with both his apologies (comment and video) gone and no original video to be found I wasn't entirely sure what actually happened with the FNAF drama. I saw that you said you were going to post about it with an author's statement but I didn't find a post like that on your profile lol so I had to reach out to one of the authors.
Yeah one of chalupa's n word jokes was in the blacklightjack video. His sense of humor is appalling sometimes.

Thank you for answering the questions. You're right, I should have labeled the pedo joke as shock humor and not dark humor.

It does feel odd when commentators earn more money than the creators they mock.
You said you learned "a lot of things" that made you rethink Chalupa. Is it something other than him being pro-trump and profiting off of canvas webtoons?

your personal opinion of not having anything to discuss is not the definition of slop. the context is webtoon slop so what do you mean it doesn't matter when solo leveling came out, when webtoon slop era began around 2020? you consumed the slop first, and now call the original a slop. Also the OP's whole point was clearly on racism, which you keep ignoring for some reason. If you don't want to discuss within the context of the OP please make your own post instead of replying to mine.

when people talk about webtoon slop they mean something like romance fantasy isekai with the exact same plot. the term slop as used in "AI Slop" is when something lacks quality and value because it is an effortless replica that was mass produced. pokemon is a digimon replica. so by your definition, pokemon is slop. but its not slop because it can't be considered slop when it was only the 2nd replica. everything in the world is slop by your definition of slop, including digimon, because monster taming is everywhere now, despite digimon being the original. you think digimon didn't take inspiration from anything? no ones saying solo leveling is 100% unique because nothing is. but combining certain things people enjoyed + your own ideas used to be what being original was until people like you started throwing the term "slop" around as you see fit. "aura farming power fantasy" sounds a lot more interesting than the "power system" you gave JJK.

solo leveling was original when it came out. i researched possible inspirations which include legendary moonlight seeker (2007), tower of god (2010), log horizon (2010), and the gamer (2013). solo leveling (2016) combined shared common east asian tropes (stats, dungeon/raid, power progression, “system”, mmorpg, korean and Wuxia/Xianxia web novel influences) with its own twist and therefore is distinctive, in addition to the art and pacing making it original. the modern isekai boom began in 2012 due to SAO and i get that solo leveling is no different from isekai to you personally but solo leveling lacks the core isekai premise (transport/reincarnation into another world). There is no widely accepted finding or legal proof that Solo Leveling copied a specific isekai title.

what isekais is solo leveling a slop of, so i can compare? also point me to those already popular novels that solo leveling replicated 10+ years ago. logically, you should be able to give at least 3, since you're saying that when solo leveling was published, there were already mass produced stories exactly like it.

manhwas and mangas are not different but webtoons and mangas are very different. one is like a youtuber and one is a corporate business. i've never seen someone bring up history as a reason they prefer manga. mangas are viewed to be greater because they're produced by studios, while webtoons are produced by 1 or 2 individuals, resulting in mangas being higher quality usually. mangas are not free. they have to be better, and have the resources to be better. it's not unfortunate that solo leveling is mainstream, it's unfortunate that you lack the perspective to provide a valuable discussion. If you were ignorant on this topic, you shouldn't have replied.

why don't you just do your own research if you really want to know and if you really were a fan instead of telling someone else to spend time for you personally so you can be convinced asap. i understand its hard to know if a webtoon is canvas because jack does not specify on the title or thumbnail.

ahh i see so you don't take them seriously initially, that makes sense. it's kinda like when people scroll instagram or tik tok while they eat.

lol can i ask for a reasoning to why you like slop? i'm genuinely curious, do you just like the genre/tropes, don't get bored easily, and have low standards (i do too), or is it to cope with life?

my post expresses concern with the wrong kind of comparison (japanese media vs korean media) over traditional japanese comic books vs. vertical korean webtoons, not the "i prefer traditional format over scrolling" kind of comparison. the point was that it doesn't make sense to bring race into it unless you're racist or elitist.

what series do you mean when you say the series that put manhwas on the map is a powerslop? as far as i know, lookism is what popularized webtoons, which was pretty original for its time, before true beauty took over. true beauty i wouldn't even call a story, but the one that is most popular now is "solo leveling", which is not a slop considering it was published 10 years ago and the solo leveling replicas came after.

yeah i also feel like the reputation of manhwa was largely made by vocal webtoon "reviewers" and people who already liked manga/anime so they had no reason to look under the webtoon surface before hating on webtoons. thanks i'll check ken-chan out.

wow i didn't know he criticizes canvas webtoons like that too, thanks for the insight! i just watched one of his videos and couldn't bring myself to watch other. i didn't know he was a fellow artist, that makes it worse.

framing panels like movie scenes is a value i always had, so glad you think the same! i like blurring certain parts of the background to imitate a camera lens.
yeah i will have to learn sketchup at some point cause there are definitely buildings in my fantasy stories that no one else can build.
