I mess with dystopian setting set-series like Texhnolyze with ambiguous themes accompanied with indirect messages heavy. Execution wise that particular series is pretty average, but beneath it there is a lot of depth despite the nothingness at face value :wow:
I think the execution is far from average. It's a series about nihilism, about the emptiness of existence. It's dark and bleak and it offers nothing to anyone except a revelation that you only live in search for a made-up purpose to life.

Damn this hurts. Naruto just one giant lie.
Maybe thats why naruto went to shyt?? He couldno longer copy hxh do to the histus so he came up wih bull shyt

giphy.webp


Damn I didn't know it was too that extent. Jeez.
I didn't even list everything. It goes even further than that look it up. Chakra =nen and they do the same damn leaf/paper test to determine what "type" you are.

Beyond Hunterxhunter he also stole from togashi's other series yu yu hakusho . Naruto himself has a 9 tailed demon fox living inside him named Kurama. Yu yu hakusho has a character named shuichi and guess what? He also has a demon fox inside of him too named kurama. Straight up plagiarized the fukk out of togashi's work. Im surprised its not more widely talked about.

I think it's a bit of a stretch saying Naruto ripped off HxH, they both use some of the similar shonen tropes that they all use. I don't quite see the connection between characters.

I think Naruto fell off because Kishimoto just got tired of thinking up complex powers and fights. Look at the awesomeness of that first time you saw the Sarutobi and Orochimaru fight. How epic was that in scale to the previous fights? Fast forward to the end of the series and you can tell the lack of imagination put into the fights. It was either broken eye jutsu and super chakra rasengan fights.

Now look at HxH, nen is wayyyyy more complex than the chakra system in Naruto. So complex that I don't even try to understand it fully lol. Every fight is so well thought out it's no wonder he's always taking breaks, he has to think up all these crazy powers!

Sasuke/kurupika: both of their clans were killed off and both are out to get revenge. their clans had special red eyes which turns blood red when shyt gets real. pretty darn similar if u ask me.

I think the reason why people dont see how kishi copied togashi is because Togashi has always been on hiatus. if togashi was releasing a chapter every week like naruto..people would see the obvious similarities. kisihi is lucky that his mentor is on hiatus.

i think I found another character similar, Zushi and rock lee. Both have bushy eyebrows, practice is all they have..they don't have any powers. also, they have a tight relationship with their master.

Well Sasuke/Kurapika MAYBE but Zushi could use nen, he just didn't have the talent like Killua and Gon.

Seen all of them except 7 Deadly Sins, I've read a lot of mixed reactions about it. Will probably give it a shot eventually :patrice: Thanks breh.

All thosed "mixed reactions" prolly come from folks expecting that standard shyt.

1. Lead character and friends start off weak but incredibly strong when compared to regular people

2. They get beat up by some mean person that's stronger

3. They go on quests with more puzzles than fights to level up

4. They come back to beat up the mean person, almost lose

5. The Power of Friendship :ooh:, still almost lose

5. ":damn: WHAT IS THIS POWER!? YOU MUST HAVE GOTTEN A POWER UP FROM LEARNING THE FORBIDDEN TECHNIQUE THAT IS ONLY GAINED FROM TRAINING AND SOLVING PUZZLES! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *dramatic hero music plays*"

6. Mean person joins team as the tsundere. "It'... it's not because I like you or anything. Idiot."

7. Repeat for 12 seasons. :mjlol:

:pachaha:

Is it more fukkery based or is it one of those deep thought anime? I'm more of a fan of the latter but I'll always embrace good fukkery :mjgrin:

Too many characters isn't an excuse for shytty writing.

No series had as many characters as LotGH they developed them all. They felt like real people with real motivations not just fodder for the main character.

I used to love Naruto until it went to pure shyt in the end. Then I found out kishimoto straight up plagiarized Hunterxhunter and lost all respect for him. chuunin exams are a carbon copy of the hunter exam arc. The whole uchiha/sharingan /sasuske story is all stolen directly from kurapika and the scarlet eyes. Itachi stolen from illumi. Tsunade blonde hair old woman that hides her appearance but had super strength is biscuit. Hisoka orichimaru etc... He wasn't even subtle with that shyt :hhh:


WOW......

I never looked at it like this. Damn, I might be able to see Naruto in the same light anymore, smh.
