mochi Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 the christian remake of Naruto looks just like I expected Quote
The1gairon Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Asta, if you're gonna be the protagonist that audiences want to follow in probably the most overhyped anime this season ........ STOP!!! SCREAMING!!!! Quote
Daos Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Remember how hyped Bungo Stray Dogs was? If the MC is really that annoying this could go the same way. Quote
naraku360 Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Screaming is the PUUUNCHLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE! Quote
DragonSinger Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 My tolerance for shounen is pretty high, but NOPE to that shit. I'm out. Quote
Chapinator_X Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Glad there's one reason to watch this piece of shit Quote
Sandstone Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Asta, if you're gonna be the protagonist that audiences want to follow in probably the most overhyped anime this season ........ STOP!!! SCREAMING!!!! He reminds me of Natsu, only without all the parts with Natsu being calm.... also less coherent. Quote
Sandstone Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 I think the design elements are heavily influenced by the style of Fairy Tail from what I've seen so far, but I could be wrong. Even the facial reactions are nearly identical. Quote

CAC Posted October 10, 2017 Posted October 10, 2017 Other than the yelling I liked it, I'll try to keep watching. Quote
The1gairon Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 K why couldn't this have been the first episode?? Then it wouldn't have been so ill-paced, and it wouldn't have been a flashback! I do like the bond these brothers share though, so I guess i appreciate the heart it's trying to portray. Plus, a screeching kid isn't as obnoxious as a screeching adult. Quote
CAC Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Yeah the second ep wasn't bad, too bad it was all flashback though. Quote
The1gairon Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Yeah the second ep wasn't bad, too bad it was all flashback though. Because we didn't deal with that particular actor for 22 minutes. It was all whoever was playing Young Asta! Quote

I do like the bond these brothers share though, so I guess i appreciate the heart it's trying to portray. Plus, a screeching kid isn't as obnoxious as a screeching adult. I have watched the first two episodes... it seems Asta has always had the disfavorable disposition of yelling at the top of his lungs for no reason. I could understand if he was yelling or excited in combat, but he yells out of place over mundane shit that no one actually cares about. I dunno if this is just a problem with the VA's portrayal of him thus far or if it is based on his Manga personality. Either way, I personally find it irritating and the prime example of one of the worst shounen cliches, overly enthused, erratic, and screaming protagonist. I hope that he becomes more likable at some point soon because I'd like to watch it but if this is gonna be his demeanor for the entire series I will probably drop it. I've met my quota on shounen anime with "scream for no reason" protagonists... Quote
Gyaos Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 Studio Pierrot "From the fuckups that brought you Tokyo Ghoul....." This explains the unlikable MC very well. Quote
