The moment Denji tries to fuck Yoru, it's over. The shitstorm we're gonna witness, especially on Twitter, will be HISTORIC. Now add the ending to the mix, and Denji's and Chainsaw Man's reputations are going straight down the fucking drain. I have absolutely no doubt about it. You can screenshot this post and come back in 2040 to see how well it aged, just don't say you weren't warned...

Manga Discussion I really loved Aizen's Breakdown

Thumbnail

34 Upvotes

After Ichigo Kurosaki uses the Final Getsuga Tenshō (Mugetsu), Aizen is overwhelmingly beaten in sheer physical and spiritual power. However, because Aizen had fused with the Hogyoku, he remains immortal. His body regenerates, and he fully expects to evolve further and finally destroy Ichigo.

Instead, a strange spell suddenly activates inside his body:- (99th Style Seal), placed by Urahara. Urahara reveals that he planted this seal inside another Kido spell earlier in the fight. It only activated because the Hōgyoku began rejecting Aizen as its master, weakened by Ichigo's strength and Aizen's own subconscious doubts.

As the seal begins consuming and binding him, Aizen completely loses his cool

After this,Urahara confronts Aizen's and says this

"I despise you, Urahara Kisuke! With your intellect, why don't you take action?! Why do you submit yourself to THAT THING?!"

To add on to add I'll explain why he says this

Aizen spent his entire life in absolute isolation because no one possessed his level of strength or intellect—except Kisuke Urahara. Aizen respected Urahara's genius above all others.

However, Aizen's life goal was to overthrow the Soul King (the "thing" he refers to), whom he viewed as a mindless, hollow lynchpin maintaining a stagnant, broken world. To Aizen, anyone with supreme intelligence should naturally want to rewrite the universe and take control.

When Aizen realized Urahara—the only person who matched his intellect—knew the truth about the Soul King but chose to preserve the status quo, Aizen saw it as unforgivable cowardice and betrayal of intellect

The conversation continues on and Aizen's says this

"Without the Soul King, Soul Society would split apart. That's just how the world is."

"A victor must not talk about how the world IS, but how the world SHOULD BE!!"

THis interpets that

1)Aizen’s Mindset (The Ruler): True intellect means imposing your vision on the world to correct its flaws, no matter the cost.

2)Urahara’s Mindset (The Guardian): True intellect means understanding the boundaries of existence and protecting stability, even if the system is imperfect.

Both know the truth both The Soul King yet their paths varied differently,One choose to oppose Soul Society and the world,And the Other one Choose to side/ally with it and confront the other

FURTHER MORE TO ADD,WE'LL AIZEN REASON FOR WHAT HE IS

A. Loneliness at the Peak

Ichigo reveals that when their swords crossed, he felt nothing but loneliness from Aizen's Soul. From the day he was born, Aizen was vastly stronger and smarter than everyone around him. Because of this gap, he could never relate to anyone as a peer.

B. The Desire to Be Normal

The Hogyoku does not just grant power; it manifests the deepest desires of the user’s heart.

Deep down, behind all his god-complex rhetoric, Aizen wished to simply be a normal Soul Reaper—or at least find an equal who could stand beside him. When Ichigo surpassed him, Aizen’s subconscious desire was finally fulfilled: he was no longer uniquely isolated at the top. The Hogyoku recognized this suppressed desire and stripped away his god-like powers, allowing Urahara's seal to take hold

So yea,I REALLY REALLY LOVED THIS SCENE,I just wanted to make a post about it,i know this sub majorly calls Aizen an"Hype and Aura" villain but I genuinely think he's much much more than that

unjerk (serious discussion) Naruto was cursed with the absolute worst fandom out of the big 3

24 Upvotes

The past few days has shown full force the complete stupidity of naruto fans, but I'd be lying if I said this wasnt common.

Within the bleach fandom the community is probably the least annoying out of the big 3. Anime discussion is enjoyable, the people actually understand their manga, and you can find really good analysis content for the series, especially with its villains. The one piece fandom revolutionized modern slander and some of the most memorable formats used today were popularized by that community, and even though some of them are in an author hate echo chamber theres still gems and very good theories that you can find on pmuch any platform.

You don't get any of that with naruto, this god awful fandom is permanently stuck in 2016 and its the worst shit ever. On twitter you have blue check accounts recycling the same exact tweets for years and most of the "discussion" on that platform is usually naruto and boruto fans going for round 400 of arguments. On reddit you have subreddits like dankruto that have been frozen in time and are painfully unfunny, the main naruto subreddit is pretty much 1:1 of twitter with recycled posts and boruto arguments, and the subreddit dedicated to boruto for whatever reason is just naruto fans there to hate on the series. The youtube scene might actually be the worst out of them all, the most notable naruto related video is made by a guy who says that he doesnt know much about naruto in the first 5 seconds, and they flock to the channels of idiots like dygoknight who for some reason think they can write the manga better than the creator. And have you noticed the common denominator yet? Its almost always about fucking boruto these people turn into literal cavemen anytime this series is brought up fans and haters alike

tldr: No good jokes because the fandom is stuck in the last decade, no good theorizing because half the fandom hates the sequel and are now deluding themselves into thinking its non canon, and a severe lack of in depth content about the series because everyone and their fucking mom thinks they know better than the author of the series

If you're a bleach or one piece fan, hell if you're a fan of any shonen cherish your community it can always be worse

Anime Discussion Watching the Minato vs Obito fight in slow motion is such an experience. It makes Minato look deadly, given how he went for the kill so many times. He earned the "Flee on Sight" order.

Anime Discussion 4 episodes in, i am wondering what is your thoughts on the Steel Ball run adaptation?

15 Upvotes

I have some thoughts about it :

-The opening grew up on me and now i really like it, we don't talk about that ED tho

-The animation is a major step up from Stone Ocean but feels less fluid than Part 5, i understand that it is the style of the anime to be basically an animated manga, and the money shots are really well done

-The Steel Balls are amazing, from reusing the same sound effects as Hamon, to having that ripple effect, and forming a golden number every time they're thrown, the way the anime puts the steel ball in it is really good (it's definitely 3D animated cause it's a bit too smooth for 2D animation)

-The Horses are well animated, that part of the show they did a good job

-The character details seems to be a bit... too smooth? i lowkey prefer the lines in the stone ocean adaptation

-Gyro Zeppeli can actually tell me to do whatever he wants and i'll say yes sir

I don't understand these types of post because weren't people complaining the same about the big 3 at some point with bad arcs and bad endings. When these arcs were going on back then, they were so many hate and now since years has passed, people remember the good parts of those series and remember them fondly for it while not hating the bad parts as much. Isn't the same happening with these modern shounen series. Isn't this just nostalgia bias.

Like i genuinely think we will see the same type of slander 10 years from now with newer series while hyping up the current new gen shounen.

Folk. No, Naruto fans Boruto isn’t getting retconned. How the HELL did they reach that conclusion?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I can’t believe my eyes. This is the state of my fandom. Naruto, I love you, thats my childhood manga, i’m so so sorry this is the fanbase you got….

ā€œManga thats set in blank period after the last and before borutoā€

ā€œSo boruto is being retconned! kishimoto hates ikemoto and hates boruto and doesn’t wanna be associated with it! (Pulls an interview part out of context about kishimoto saying Boruto is truly ikemoto’s manga)ā€ and then tens of thousands of people bought that BS.

First of all, Kishimoto in that same interview has shown that he deeply respects ikemoto as his friend and partner, and ALSO THAT HE STILL HAS THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE CHANGES TO DRAFTS IKEMOTO SHOWS HIM BEFORE ITS EVEN PUT INTO THE STORY. He also created an original template for ikemoto to follow and write himself. He’s not writing it, sure, but he’s involved, and he literally fucking said it. Hell, he WANTED ikemoto to make it because he wanted his friend to make a manga series, and if ikemoto rejected, boruto wouldn’t have been made. In this context, why the FUCK would Kishimoto do that to Ikemoto? Think about that, ā€œI’m gonna make my friend work on a story for over ten years only for me to retcon it out of existenceā€ you know how fucked that sounds right? Regardless if you hate or love boruto.

It takes literally a few minutes of research but I forgot this fanbase can’t think for themselves.

Idc about the Boruto slander, i’m more mad at the fact that the fanbase of my favorite manga are absolute morons and continue to impress me at how extremely gullible they can be. Mass delusion. And then they’ll go back to posting the same old corny memes from 10 years ago. Some are doing this for agenda, fairs but knowing Naruto fans track record of being some of, if not the most dumbest fanbase i’ve ever been in, i’m sure so many people bought it.

Also, those were out of context sketches? Ok, AT WORST maybe the inauguration is getting retconned but that has zero effect on the boruto manga. It’s probably gonna be a short story too like maybe 3-4 volumes anyways??

Jjk fans I’m so envious of you all, I wish my fanbase was as funny, creative, and not THAT stupid.
