Sadly (Imo, at least. I think they're stupid but cute) they drop the pretentious literature refs. And yeah, they do go full shounen. That's exactly what I do! I also adore one of the investigators, Mado, and his daughter, who later becomes an investigator. I'm doin' it for 1 or 2 characters. I also really like Touka so it's not like it's all bad? It's just not as incredible as a lot of people seem to make it out to be.


Just stay with us!! And make icons and... yeah. :< Please. We miss you.

I think I can see the full shonen starting, I'm on chapter 58 and the ghoul army/turf war looks suspiciously like something Kaneki could solve by bamfing up and then convincing everyone to be friends... It's seinen though, it shouldn't get too bad... right?? But Mado & Touka some ghouls whose names I don't remember are worth reading for, even if I have to endure shonentastic ghoul battles :U And I saved some pages for the vile icon, so mission accomplished \o/

I WANT TO. I'm gonna sign up for stuff and then hopefully not lose interest. YES. ICONS.

GOD THAT ARC IS SO DUMB?!1!?!!! and it just gets dumber, I'm mad. There was a kind of interesting thing that happened around chapter 100-ish I think? But at the same time the ghoul war is still really stupid and the fact that Kankei DOES bamf up is just... dumb.
It's seinen but just barely. Basically the only thing seinen about it is the amount of gore they're allowed to show? I think had it kept with the Kafka parallels or remained a slice of life series it'd be better and more seinen-y, or at least the type of seinen that we know and love.


YAY!!!!!!!!!

Yeah but you know all the snk nerds gonna be heading over to it once full popularity kicks in.


At least snk fans stayed away from the other, actually good SnK (actually there's two???), Sidonia no Kishi. Cause more people die in Knights of Sidonia/Sidonia no Kishi on a regular basis than SnK and it's about humanity facing an oppressive alien force that can kill them all really easily.
HMMM
They started at the same time and Knights of Sidonia is so much better. ughgh
Also better art, actually well developed characters, likable mc??? What the fuck man. I guess I should be glad that the fandom isn't dumb but at the same time that's probably because there is no fandom.

nooooooooo

Ahhh you like Sidonia!?? I fucking love it. lmao, ongoing harem and all ok. I started reading it after I watched the first 2-3 episodes of the anime and wow I feel dumb for not having read it sooner even though a ton of people recommended it to me. Yeah! It's good. UGH THE ART IS SO BEAUTIFUL! I fucking lovvvvvveee Nihei's art and his attention to detail. Gosh, I am so happy you like it.

YES. Sidonia is the best harem since Tenchi HATERS TO THE LEFT.

I adore Nihei and Sidonia actually has dialog??? And a plot?!! I mean I love BLAME! and Biomega but... this has a plot!!!!! AND A BEAR.
It doesn't have Dhomochevsky tho.

[identity profile] pamkips.livejournal.com 2014-08-27 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
IT'S SO GREAT!

Yeah, the plot! YES, LALA! Lala is amazing ok. I haven't read Biomega or Blame (I read a couple chapters of Blame but that was ages ago so it doesn't count) but I am honestly enjoying snk more than I thought I would.

[identity profile] astrokittie.livejournal.com 2014-08-27 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG please read BLAME!??!?!! It's very different in that there's very little dialog and it's more atmospheric. That's how Nihei's comics usually are. They're normally just architecture porn.
But then there's Dhomochevsky (http://cs5990.vk.me/u169018064/a_ebd1dcc7.jpg) ♥

I will! :3 Which I'm down for, I fucking looooooovvvvveeeeee Nihei's backgrounds. I'll probably read it one of these days after I'm done catching up w/ 2 other series.
