This is like the most relatable anime podcast. Between having a critical lack of understanding of JRPGs, not having watched all time classics like Eva or Akira, or talking about reading 10k+ chapters of shittily translated shity Chinese cultivation web-novels. I’ve truly never felt more at home lmao.
My favorite is them talking about how fast they read but they're not able to process what they're reading I'm like then slow down and read properly so you can retain some information
@@aid4nski215you aren’t exactly helping your case when you cite a remake of a near 20 year old game as a modern turn based rpg lmao They certainly exist and there is a market for it for sure, as evidenced by the swath of wannabe chrono trigger games that have come out in the past year or two. Idk why you said persona 3 though lmfao.
I like this style of podcast episodes, where it's manga/anime opinions sprinkled in with tangents about other topics or rl stuff. It's an easier format to consume cause it's laidback and we get to know the hosts better. Plus the tangents are manga/anime adjacent enough that it stays with the theme of the podcast as a whole. Don't be too critical of yourselves for straying off topic, it's still entertaining. Hope you don't get discouraged by comments on shorts or anything, it's a passionate community and you guys bring up good arguments to discuss. Good episode guys and looking forward to more "wrong" opinions lol
Scarra is so real for admitting that he took on Kuro's trait of adjusting his glasses that way. The One Piece live action series actor for Kuro did such a good job. The entire casting for that show was so well done.
Scarra's idea of free-to-play is funny to me. I don't think most F2P players grind white artifacts like a job. I usually just log in for 30 minutes and then get off when the game tells me to.
Bump. I literally paused at 23:00 because I was shocked. Roaming around for hours to collect the trash grey artifacts? The only explanation for that is because he genuinely enjoyed the game and the open world aspect. Not that because being f2p limited his progression to that. No way he thought that was an actual good use of his time back then.
Scarra: "I don't know if you've ever tried reading 3000 chapters of Chinese web novels" Me: *looks at how many chapters of Star Odyssey and Nine Star Hegemon Body Art I've read* "Uhhh, nope. Can't say I have."
It's one of my fav comics. It's a pretty quick read, the chapters are split into 2 and are only a few pages each. Art style is fine IMO, but can't help with that
THANK YOU PETER @ starting One Piece back up, get at least to present day of anime. If I recall correctly, the entire Wano anime arc was 3 years in the making, which makes me *SO* happy that I did not start watching One Piece until last year, because it is so bingeable.
I found out you guys had a podcast through Fear& and I'm currently binging the episodes on Spotify and finally have the motivation to catch up with some manga 😭❤️
The solo leveling one is you roll for Jinwoo weapons, characters, and character weapons. You use jinwoo and other characters as support on 50% of the content and the other 50% is you use only other characters genshin style.
I really like your guy’s podcast!and I feel like y’all are right when it comes to more of a hardcore audience will find you guys interesting because it I can understand exactly what y’all are talking about when it comes to like dumpster diving cause most mangas and manha do be trash but I still end up trying to understand why while reading😅
Watched every single episode of the podcast and I have been loving it. Just not that many manga podcast out there. There are dozens of us manga fans out there
started watching this podcast recently, binged all episodes in one day. love the content, ps I relate to scarra's manhwa readlist sm lol, the guilty pleasure is so good
I love love love Paprika! It's like anime inception - so good! Another great one was Summer Wars! Also I started watching anime with what was on Adult Swim - Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, Code Geass, Deathnote, FLCL - all bangers (though, I'm not a huge mech fan for Code Geass)
Jjk has one of the most internally consistent power systems and this current arc is essentially the author showing how his power system fits together. I think the series is incredible, but it took several read throughs and being one of my more thorough weekly reads to really start enjoying this arc. When I read it more casually week to week with my other series, I did not enjoy it nearly as much (and sometimes didn’t enjoy it at all). This arc is jjks Chimera Ant Arc, where Shibuya was it’s Yorknew. Shibuya was super fast paced and easy to digest. The Culling Games is much more dense and painstakingly detailed Also, regarding Hakari’s domain, part of his domain expansion is a brain dump to confuse the enemy. I think the author was being a bit meta with his explanation to make the reader feel like his opponent does
To answer what kind of manga reader I am, I'm limited to mostly only physical. Something about reading on my phone or tablet doesn't do it for me. A series I haven't heard you talk about yet is Witch Hat Atelier which has probably the best magic system and increadable world. It is a bit slow and not a typical shounen, but it focuses on magic as a science and the world is also created so you feel unease through every perspective.
Please don't change your genuine opinion because of negative comments. I just binge watch all your ep and I enjoyed it (came from watching the fear& ep). I may not always share the same opinion, have a sort of different moral compass, or dont relate to some topics and THAT'S OKAY. I find it more enjoyable to watch someone who shares some of my likes and dislikes but also has different preferences, rather than always having the same preferences as me. Also, short viewers and commenters DON'T ALWAYS translate to podcast viewers and commenters. Even trash taste gets harsh shorts comments and even reddit post. In our fandom there's always people like that. So guys are doing just fine.
I love One Piece, my favorite Anime and Manga, but it's so hard to recommend it to anyone, it's just one of those IPs you have to WANT to get into haha The Egghead Arc is absolutely PEAK OP though imo
I'd love to see watchalongs for the classics like Evangelion or Akira. And watching the reaction to some episodes of popular titles you didn't really like(e.g. Steins Gate) could be fun as well
Came expecting summoners war talk, got summoners war talk. Let's gooo New event for 10yr anniversary is crazy, worth checking out again if you ever liked the game
I just want to point out that Peter thinking Scarra was talking to an alien makes sense when you look at Scarra's sweater. My man was in the Andromeda galaxy trying to hunt down new manga to read.
Hearing Peter talk about reading One piece and then he will probably fall down the rabbit hole of the trading cards and gacha is like looking into a mirror of myself 6 months ago. Great series but I am running out of money.
Please try reading 'Killer Pietro'. It's like John Wick, but a manhwa with a much better story and art. The fight scenes and the art are absolutely top tier!
God Chinese Novels(Like I Shall Seal The Heavens) are so amazing, I don't know what it is and several Korean ones also hit insane(Second Coming of Gluttony). But I barely could even pull myself away from those two among other great ones.
I like Honkai Star Rail far more than Genshin. I didn’t play at launch cuz I thought turn based would be boring - but it’s honestly quite fun. Not a game you play for hours every day but it’s fun if you pace yourself
Korean Manwha is intresting because solo leveling got so popular every other action manwha now is about some weakling guy with a bowl cut who awokes necromacy like the solo leveling MC, and has a gaming level screen that only he can see, and they all dress like the solo leveling MC Tho I recommend Debut or die, is a manwha about a guy who wakes up as some kid and now has to debut as an idol or he'll die its pretty fun
I spent on genshin, sssnaker, and infinite lagrange but then i decided to miss a day then a nxt day then a week, now it's been months since i played them and all i do now is watch othera play and its great 😂18:46
if ur going into one piece trying to see "whats so hype about this" "why do ppl like it so much" ur only going to see the negetives.Go in with a sense of adventure, try to understand the politics from that world its the best I've ever come across. One piece for me is the best story ever told, if it wasn't tied to the stigma of manga this story wud be discussed in literary classes
YESS the jjk eng translation is sooo bad rn like *SPOILERSSSSS* they said that yuji could use malevolent shrine when the original said he could use one of sukuna’s slicing attacks (i can’t remember from the top of my head)
A great food manhwa i love reading is Please Have a Meal. Mc is a chef that loses his sense of taste through an accident. A new VR is introduced as experiencing all of your senses or something and he decides to give it a shot. Horrible synopsis a much better read.
"3000 chapters of Chinese web novels " *Cue the flashbacks* Yes. And yes, the translation is often... lacking. Why was that guy called "Brian"? That wasn't his name for real right?
I recently watched a streamer go thru every single ff mainline single player, no sequels no spinoffs. FF games being 50-60 hrs long is an inflated nostalgia filled number. Half of the mainline FF is 30-40 hrs at best if you book the main storyline. Still lengthy thou as jrpg's or just video games go.
Peter i still play PAD it's has all the ip collabs you can think of old mecha's anime sports curremt shonen one piece demon slayer monster hunter fighting games etc only difference is that jp gets like all of them na collabs are like 20%
How would yall recommend people new to manga get used to the formatting? Sometimes I don't know which panel to read first after turning a page and feel stupid lol
Within a page, you can first split the whole page into horizontal rows. You read rows from top to bottom. Within each row, read the panels from right to left, then move on to the row below, again reading the rightmost panel first and moving to the left before repeating. You can read each text box within a singular panel in the same order: starting with the rightmost box up top, and continuing to read the boxes from right to left, top to bottom. You should always be moving rightward when you move from text box to text box. tl;dr right to left first, then top to bottom. If you google “how to read manga”, some pretty helpful pictures show this with arrows.
Good evening Mr Scara and Mr Peter, just out of curiosity, when you read many stories at the same time does there come a point where you get lost in the story? Like if this story was from this manhwa or that manga
