I just can’t get into Seven Deadly Sins. It has a “cute” style that I don’t like. The type of style of why I quit fairy tail like 6 episodes in as well. Not a big fan of the main character either. He looks wack to me and the other characters are too basic girlish anime type characters from the girl looking for everyone to the giant and to the pig. The greed guy design is dope and he seems interesting but not enough for me to continue.

I didn’t care about anything in like the first 6 to 7 episodes. I guess it doesn’t help that I finished Vinland saga season 1 and I’m reading Berserk for the first time (94 chapters in). I guess since I consumed a lot of serious dark series over the past month it’s hard to sort of transition into an anime and seeing a talking pig.

something I’m able to transition into is MHA. I’m digging the current arc. I like Lemillion and Nighteye. Deku earned my respect last episode. Duku acknowledging that he knows he might die yet doesn’t care is so shounen but I’m a sucker for it nonetheless. Latest episode went by quick for me and that always means the episode was fire. It’s a dope show but I still have my problems with it and I hate that nikka Bakugo.

Hulu trying to put One Piece in my suggestion section. Almost uninstalled the whole app. :scust:
One Piece is probably not a good anime to watch last I remember. It was like a piece of fried chicken where 70% of it is breading. They'd have like 2+ minute openings long recaps and repeat scenes from the last episode and stall out for time. The padding was so severe it compromised the anime's quality.

I watched that till the bunny girl showed up and dropped it. Now that it's getting another season I might watch it again. I quickly figured out they weren't gonna get to the part where he reunites with everyone which was all I really wanted to see. I hope that either happened at the end of the first season or the second season gets to it.

Bruh. UBW>>>>>>Zero. Tell me Shirou isn't a more respectable main character than his dad.

More respectable? Yeah, to a fault which is what drives him into madness. His Father was molded by his environment, you saw what he went through and having to kill his own mentor. He went through that so Shirou wouldn't have to. It's not a fair comparison, at all in context.

As to which is better? Honestly they balance each other out for me, each has elements that the other lacks. For instance, I like the Heroic Spirits in Zero more than UBW but I prefer the Summoners in UBW over Zero.

But was it fair for Kitrutsugu to saddle his son with the burden of his failures? Shirou loved that man and took up his cause to honor his father. Then he refused to properly train him. Kitrutsugu is guilty for that if nothing else.

The servants in Zero were better characterized. I only liked Saber when she debated with Rider. Rider was the best one to me. Gil was too much of a mustache twirler.

He didn't saddle him with anything, Shirou chose to take up his dream because he couldn't. His Father didn't want him involved in the fukkery, blood, & politics of Mage life, which is why he didn't train him beyond reinforcement and projection. The fact of the matter is that Shirou had an idyllic upbringing due to the blood on his Father's hands, which helped mold his entire worldview.

I mean damn, let's not put him on Goku status, he was a better Dad than that.

Why are Shirou's parents dead again?
