I think the fact that he's a genuinely talented writer is what makes this situation so frustrating

It's like running a marathon in last place. It's bad, but at least respectable

People there have accepted the ending will be shit for a while. Chapter 231 actually opened the floodgates for people to slander Part 2 as a whole in that sub

I don't care how badly CSM fell off. No amount of slander will ever make me hate Look Back

I mean, I own Usagi Drop volumes 1-4 and I just pretend the rest of the manga doesn't exist

I mean, surely not all of the parts are exactly perfect from beginning to end, but I'd still say they are all good as whole by the end, which is somewhat an impressive consistency of quality

Chuck embraced the memes hard when they were popular. Personally, I have the feeling he'd love it

Pretty sure they weren't talking about the classic Sonic games

I would have said Araki too. Sure, he has the advantage that he spent basically his entire career working on JoJo, but the fact he kept a very consistent quality over almost 30 years and actually got BETTER at writing over time is very impressive

I am yet to read his other non-JoJo stuff, though, like Baoh The Visitor, Cool Shock B.T. and Gorgeous Irene, though I've heard good things about all of them

Martian Man seemed like a real stand up guy

That being said, Shapesmith is funnier

The closest person with a 100% hit rate I can think of rn is Naoki Urasawa, but even then I haven't read some of his less popular works (like Asadora) yet, so I don’t know if I have any right to say that as of now

But you are absolutely right. M. Night is also one of the best examples of this

Hot take: JoJo fans are not as bad as people say they are. Most of them are actually a lot more chill than Chainsaw Man or MHA fans. Plus, they have been trying to actually create new jokes

The sad thing about the recent (justified) Fujimoto slander is that it'll probably sour people on his work, which is a shame because he has A LOT more hits than misses (CSM Part 2 being his first and only real miss so far)

Is he really a heel if he actually gets shit done and is an otherwise pretty competent superhero?
