I love how 95% of the entire anime/manga community came to the realization that this manga is edgy, shallow SHIT and it just slowly faded away.
This is how we should treat all run of the mill/try-hard, garbage manga.

Akame ga Kill is a mockery of asking for edge in a generic light-hearted shonen.
Its bad but I understand why it needed to exist.
>Akame ga Kill is a mockery of asking for edge in a generic light-hearted shonen.
So it's self aware?
God that abortion was an even bigger pile of shit than Freezing.
Don't know how anyone could read more than a volume of that legit utter crap.
>mockery
I'm pretty sure everything was played completely straight including retarded shounen cliches like "Oh man I can only use this special ability once a day"
Of course not, it's just bad through and through.
Nah it's just that the anime spoiled the end.
> This is how we should treat all run of the mill/try-hard, garbage manga.
>we
Mockeries can be played straight. As in Akame ga Kill is what retards asked for in generic shonen because they got assmad x character survived stupid shit.
Like how people ask for strong girls in fighting series because Naruto/DBZ lacks relevant ones and end up with Erza Scarlet.
Its probably monkey's paw shit more than a mockery.
That there's a retarded mecha teigu and the generic MC becomes a Saint Seiya? I'm pretty surprised the hack author didn't at least change it up
Tatsumi will probably become a giant dragon rather than Magnamon for no reason and Honest is using a different Teigu for Leone.
I feel like one of the reasons nobody cares anymore (aside from just bad writing in general) is that the least interesting characters were the ones that lasted the longest. Leone is the only tolerable one left (Esdese was sort of fun, until the author dialed back on her sadism and played up her shitty romance with MC-kun).
This nails it.
I think the mecha teigu showed up in a recent chapter. I don't know I just skimmed a thread.
What does that have to do with a manga being complete horse shit from the beginning? Are you retarded?
It's not a mockery, it's a just a shit manga. Why are you trying to rationalize the god awful writing? Can't believe there are writers THAT bad? It's not considered one of the worst manga written for nothing ya know.
It's a generic shonen battle manga with little to no rememberable characters other than potentially Esdesde.
It's literally THE most generic battle manga off the top of my head that I've read, except for maybe Rave Master
Doubt it, I believe it was because the manga was simply shit and most came to realize that. It's literally one of the worst written series ever.
It's Fairy Tail if you replace friendship with edge.
This why World Trigger, Nanatsu no Taizai and Boku no Hero Academia are the only shonen I read in these days.
Although none of those series are perfect, the authors still do a notably better job than most, like fucking Black Clover for example.
It's spin-off is even worse.
All things have purposes, even shit.
AgK is made for people who wanted a body count in generic shonen. It ended up making people salty as backlash and it went too far.
>it's merely PRETENDING to be bad
This is some avant garde apologism.
There's a spin off? What's it even about?
Honest and Seryu are less boring than Esdeath.
Medaka Box got away with it. So can AgK.
AgK is bad I'm aware but it exists because at some point we wished x character died when they asspulled themselves alive. Extreme edge is never the answer to Bleach/Fairy Tail/One Piece tier spinelessness towards character death
That's not mocking anything, that's just "huh, I wish people could die for no reason like in real life," and then it's shit because that's a bad story.
Also, Medaka was shit.
You didn't understand his post.
>it exists because at some point we wished x character died when they asspulled themselves alive
Sure, but that isn't what a mockery is, nor a parody.
>AgK is made for people who wanted a body count in generic shonen
>generic shonen
That's the problem. Nobody wants to read a generic series with a gimmick. They want to read a creative and interesting series with a gimmick.
Akame ga Kill Zero. It's prequel about when Akame was working for the empire. It's writing is about the same, but the art is messy as shit. One of the few decent things about the main series that the fight can sometimes look cool. In Zero the fights are a clusterfuck and impossible to follow. Admittedly I only read about a volume and a half in.
Zero's writing gets insanely worse after the first volume.
Alright guess I won't waste my time with it.
Go back to your shitty anime forums, the 95% of Sup Forums love this.
Give me some examples. And is Akame still a side character in her own origin story?
Hey anons, where's your long running serialisation with an anime deal?
That's what I thought. Everyone says it's shit because it is yet it's not been cancelled so clearly someones buying it. They must be doing something right.
>can you do better
>it's popular so it's good
It's pretty impressive how you managed to cram so much stupid into so small a space.
>so it's good
I literally said it's shit. Do you have brain problems?
>it's not been cancelled so clearly someones buying it. They must be doing something right.
Same shit, no matter you want to split hairs. You're defending it by saying it's popular, but popularity proves fuck all.
Gangan Joker is an unpopular magazine that mostly publishes manga adaptations of LNs and VNs. I don't think it has much competition for manga original series. I think the only other semi-popular manga original series to come out of it were Inu x Boku SS and Tasogare Otome x Amnesia.
All I'm saying is, given the choice I'd make something shit if it made me money too. You can't rag on a mangaka of all people for making something shit if it's selling.
>Zero
You wanna explain to me why at a certain part of the manga where they're fighting an old woman or some shit the art suddenly looks like a storyboard?
>You can't rag on a mangaka of all people for making something shit if it's selling.
Actually, we can.
Don't be mad user-kun
...
I don't mind gimmicks carrying a series.
You people just get assmad about something sticking to its guns regardless of being bad or not.
Not all things need to be creative.
And the author will keep counting his money.
Not him, but what the fuck is your point? People called it shit, and your response was "yeah, but it's popular." No one's saying it isn't moderately successful, they're saying it's shit. You're just throwing around an unrelated point as though it matters.
Plot twiste: this all one person samefagging
Thats to prevent Esdeath from being broken.
Oh please if she were stabbed in the heart the author would pull something out of his ass like "Impressive but if my heart were to take fatal damage. Once a month my heart would automatically encase itself in ice to block the damage"
But is your post that same person or not?
Is this one?
I still can't get over that the manga is called Akame ga kill and Akame isn't the MC
Instead we get generic MMO anime dude
Not that Akame being MC would make it better but still.
The only good think about this was the asspull happening with the thread that got over 1700 replies
It was originally going to be called Night Raid but the publisher said it was too boring, so we got this instead.
And you will keep counting the ways your brain isn't working right.
So the author decided to change it to the name of a side character?
That's fucking stupid
It was probably the best he could come up with. Didn't some anons say AgK was originally meant to be a story designed for a VN? I mean fuck if that's true the guy better draw the 'what if' routes like Fate does just so every waifu could get their own happy ending. Yeah even pompadour for the fags.
It definitely would have worked better as a VN, branching routes for Night Ride and Jaegers sides, some light combat as well. I wish it had been that instead.
Yeah but usually, keyword usually, manga makes more money no? So he probably took that offer when it came up cause why not?
Honestly for all I care, they could do some time hax shenanigans like Re:Zero or more accurately like Tsuyokute New Saga and basically NG+ that shit, but of course shit hits the fan near the end cause he reset before reaching that point and had no idea how to deal with it.
Personally as someone who isn't remotely invested in the series, I don't mind the ensemble cast or how it affects the story. It's always been too much of a guilty pleasure thing to ever expect anything more, kinda like Fairy Tail.
Fucking this
OP is fucking right and fuck you if you think otherwise
4 real
It just can't compare in story quality to superior anime like Sword Art Online and Attack on Titan.
Written by the same guy as Yuki Ripoff. This says all you need to know.
But YuYuYu was good, though that's more thanks to the brilliance of the Kishi+Uezu dream team than Hackahiro.
>OP keep samefagging and bumping his thread despite nobody giving a shit about his opinion
I still follow it just to see the end of this trainwreck.
If AGK is the worst manga or even top 5 worst manga you've read then you ain't read shit.
++++
Nice upvote friend, what other subreddits do you subscribe to?
I do.
Is it hard to believe that multiple think this series is just shit? I mean, is it really?
There's no samefagging going on. We're just sharing thoughts on this trainwreck of a series.
I don't care how shit this show/manga is (and it is shit), waiting around for spoilers and the reactions when we got them were good times on Sup Forums. A few of those threads got near a thousand posts and I think if i remember correctly one or two did like when it saved Christmas.
>Akame ga Kill, Freezing, Medaka Box are SHIT
THANK GOD someone has non-SHIT tastes. I seriously can't believe anyone would like reading those excrements. It's so nice to see someone that actually has standards.
The winners of the world are those who profit.
The losers are forgotten.
Akame ga Kill, Freezing, and Medaka Box function for what they are. They could be worse, but not the bottom feeders of the universe
I just hate it for the story elements. When people say:
> Oh, it is self aware! So it is actually good!
> It sticks to being bad, so technically, it delivers shit that no one should be eating! That means it is good! Mayoiga
I like to decide things within the medium. I won't consider generic series to be bad unless it manages to be good within an objective view of quality. The script has to be within reasonable bounds of having depth and/or a hero's journey. Most parody series are actually ineffective since it is something that maybe unrelatable to people who may not get it (Gintama) , that is why the parody should be something within bounds of relatable to everyday life. Otherwise, there is the case of not being able to understand it. Also, if you have a shit series that continues to be shit, that is not something to be excused. If the story quality is down the toilet and plunges further, that is not good since you keep piling the amount of bullshit. Having more and more bullshit is not excusable regardless of sticking to one thing no matter what. It only makes it worse if you pile it. Sticking to its premise has nothing to do with it since the overall quality continues to be terrible. You basically saying, "It stays bad throughout the entire story by continuing to deliver bull crap! That means this is good!"
But, we can still spank it to Akame, right?
I'm still fucking mad about Rabac. His death killed any investment I had left in the story.
He was the only character that brought back a sense of life into the series. Even if the tonal shifts in AKG were terrible since there was no silver lining.
He was easily the best boy and didn't need to die. Fuck the author. I thought he was safe after he killed those two in that ambush in the cathedral arc. I'm pissed I got played with here.
>Medaka Box
It was interesting at the start, but quickly went to shit.
OP once again confirmed for shit taste.
You mean Mine, everybody dropped it when she left.
I'm more surprised that people in murrica still buy tanks of it
AgK isn't terrible but it isn't all that great either. It's okay, and has its ups and downs. I still see threads about it (such as this one), so it definitely hasn't faded away yet. OP is just a faggot.
How is it edgy? Having gore isn't edgy.
I bet you're downloading some shit moe cartoon as we speak.
What did expect from weaboos who like Game of Thrones and Walking Dead? Even I know that people don't understand the bull crap that it pulls from the stories.
> Edgy
Is there even a meaning behind this? All I know is that Akame ga kill is a cheap attempt to be mature by pulling one-dimensional evil villains that are evil just for the sake of it.
I love how the 95% of our community have come to the realization that this threads are made by the same redditor that been watching anime for less than a year.
>superior anime
>sword meme online
Both are shit, one is just edgy shit.
Smaller manga magazines usually don't go on cancelling sprees like the Jump does.
This was much worse than Elfen Lied in both formats. Why are EL threads so booed and hissed at yet AgK threads get a pass without a problem?
That one was boring but not terrible. Akame ga Kill is cringeworthy tripe.
Hate everything about this series but I want to Fuck the shit out of Akame
Her body is so delicious.
>having gore isn'tedgy
The gore isn't why its called edgy.The most overused example of why it is called "edgy"is what happened to bols family gangraped on his grave by sadists and a pedo clown
Edgy is just another overused buzzword user.
The author is a complete hack.
I'm glad people finally see how SHIT of a writer he actually is.
I really enjoyed this. The character were really well done and the series was not afraid to kill them.
The romance was cute too.
>asspull
Which one?
Akame ga Kill in its prime was so much hype, I still miss the threads.
Edgy is overused in a lot of situations, but for Akame ga Kill, it is actually appropriate.
We have villains raping just for the sake of it and deaths for no reason.
It is the very definition of edgy.
I was at a comic book store that happened to sell manga too. Saw some emo kids buying Akame ga Kill, Naruto, and Fairy Tail.
Maybe that's the fanbase it has, a bunch of emos with shit taste in manga.
>I was at a comic book store that happened to sell manga too.
You are so cool, mind to share your blog?
>We have villains raping just for the sake of it
Well yeah that's usually how rape goes. Do you think 99% of rape cases occur because the offender is thinking "I'm gonna emotionally scar this bitch and get her to commit sudoku because I actually had bought tons of life insurance for her and will be set for life after" ???
Like, the fuck? You people are bending reality backwards just so you could make a case. AgK is edgy without a shadow of a doubt, but your example is shit with the way you portray it.
Why the fuck does a story always have to have every single action and event take place further the plot or character? Does the idea that doing so can look forced, unnatural, cliche, or generic ever occur to you? What if the author just wanted to create a story using a method that goes "Well this is what would probably happen" instead of "This would make my story look cool" yeah?
And don't tell me it has never happened. Sup Forums loves Record of Lodoss Wars, and that is literally a story based on a pen and paper D&D sessions where faggots decided everything with dice rolls, and more than 9/10 people on Sup Forums defend that series nearly as hard as they do LOGH. Not a single story today would ever allow an MC like Parn, hell I don't think a single anime ever has allowed a main character to REMAIN the main character yet lose every single boss fight in the series besides a random beast that has to be slain by someone else anyways and all he did was roll a 20 luck out and hit the dragon in the eye.
It just got too popular and people started hating it. Meanwhile the next edgy shit like this
is becoming the new flavor of the month.
Then eventually it will get too popular and people will move into the next edgy drivel and applaud their "good taste".
Most people are shitting on Goblin Slayer for being a bait and switch unlike AgK. The reasons are a tad different.
yep. Killing Rabac off was simply retarded. it accomplished nothing but kill the series itself.
Who else /WavexKuromehappyending/ here?
