They need to cope somehow lol. It's impossible to get the gun laws changed, banning a book on the other hand is pretty easy

It was the teachers they probably come across the manga and read it description then without opening a single page they report it with such a dumb thought of "it inspire student to kill teacher" instead of reflecting themselves, they blame the manga.

​​@@ebc6970 they're just pointing out the stupidity in slice of life elitists. You guys can like slice of life all you want, whether it's anime or western novels, but that doesn't mean you should look down on people for enjoying fantasy. It's just lame.

@@spudermoth When did I look down on it? I'm just saying shounen doesn't just consist of fantasy stuff. I'm just explaining that. I mean, I Iike fantasy more than slice of life too.

Classic Joey LOL

As usual Joey thehentaiman

you definitely have no comprehension skills

​@@trova4725 Must say I kinda agree with OP It kinda is saying a lot and saying nothing at the same time. First I think there is a misunderstanding. I guess people don't mean watching people do their taxes all day, but just how the story is written being "realistic". Like Lord of Rings feels very realistic due to the world being constructed very clearly and follows its own set up rules. And then, I think that it still makes sense why manga in SJ or most Shonen isn't realistic, he doesn't really explain anything. Like for instance of Shonen isn't realistic, of course it often will rather do the cool thing or bring characters back from the dead than the more "real" solution, because it's for teens. It's supposed to be cool, it's supposed to be fun, it's supposed to be escapism. Now that doesn't mean it cannot be differently or that the writing cannot seem believable. I think Joey has a point, but doesn't really have a good argument to back it up with.

I wonder how many people missed his point over their head

​@sortofblue and what was his point? I'm curious

​@sortofblue actually what point is he trying to make?

​@@sortofbluethere's no point to make. If people want realistic mangas, they'd just read a biography or go on with their own life

Most realistic stories ends up to be the more highly acclaimed manga than the ones shonen jump publishes, probably the reason why there are claims that realistic = better, because most of the time it is

@@koppii2if it most of the time was then there would be way more knowledge of slice of life types of anime which in comparison to shonen animes there is not

​@@koppii2Some of the most popular mangas of all time are Shounens, just look at Dragon Ball, Naruto or One piece. They have amassed billions of fans worldwide.

​​ @reddfeather8007 as a huge fan of dragon ball; better =/= more popular. I've experienced some of the best shounen stories of all time but on average they simply can't hold a candle compared to more realistic manga

@@reddfeather8007 IIRC One Piece has the most sold atm, and is pretty much the antithesis of realism. You literally can't get any less realistic without going back to old rubber hose animation.

..... if thats realistic, I'm probably living in an imaginary world. I love my romance and slice of life but they don't seem realistic to me

Patlabor manga is shonen but the series is said to have the most realistic depiction of mechas in media.

But Conan runs in Sunday 😭

Any Adachi Mitsuru's manga is quite realistic but it's not in Jump unfortunately. Ichigo100% is quite realistic too compare to To-Love Ru, or Quintessential Quintuplets.

Totally agree

Nisekoi I think somewhat realistic as well, It focus to the romance side of Shounen Jump

@@muunprince1992eh, two gang successors trying to figure out if a key fits into a lock to honor a promise they made when they were children in my opinion isn’t quite the most realistic setting. Though who knows, maybe something like this happened to someone.

I was gonna say Bakuman too but it's a romanticized version of a mangaka's life. If they removed the reincarnation aspect of Oshi no Ko, I would say that also counts as realistic.

I don't know why Bakuman is idealistic? It shows how hard it is for a mangaka's work to be published. And even if you got published, it's still hard to maintain it. You get a glimpse of how cutthroat the manga industry is.

The rapid success is also on the fantastical side.

Thank you!! I get that us western fans have a pretty western view of jump but it's still a very Japanese publication with a predominantly Japanese audience. I joke with my friends about how the shonen jump app is only like £2 a month and they all find that concept ridiculous. Most of my weeb friends don't even read manga and if they do they pirate or buy the odd tankoban. Jump is still very much trying to style their magazines after the kids that actually buy it, not the anime fans that only care about a series once it's been animated. Dunno why a bunch of 20 something's expect a literal kids magazine to become seinen just because they grew up. Like there are magazines and independent manga that are aimed at that genre that they don't read either xD

Thats true, I guess those realistic or depressing or adult theme stuff gotta be publish somewhere else like a category

​@@foggymistyhazyyeah there is a separate category for that called Sienen jump

Me as a young boy do love documentary

Yes finally someone said it. This guy just trying hard to be different.

One Piece is a copy of Dragon Ball and thousands of Fantasy Novels. I don’t get how that can be better than people you can actually connect with.

​@@thomasffrench3639you've never seen one piece, then. I have watched both dragon ball and one piece and the only simmilarity is Luffy who's inspired by Goku, but other then that there's no other simmilarities and they're vastly different. Even then, luffy is vastly different from Goku. He has an extremely high emotional intellegence unlike goku. Again, it's the whole elitist BS. A lot of us don't watch realistic slice of life crap because it's boring and bland.

​@@thomasffrench3639If you think one piece is a copy of dragon ball then you've never watched a single episode of one piece or dragon ball, you sound like an ignorant snob who turns their nose up at everything.

you're right. to add blue box, and the new mma manga. Theyre pretty realistic

We still had a tournament arc and the stories are starting to look like domain expansions

Yeah, it's pretty much on the same level of insight.

Yeah I don't understand this take at all. This guy and the other crew I always see have such bad views on anime now. They basically have hit a point of being anime boomers in the worst way. They just say things and hope people agree with them. Cause what he just said is exactly what u said lmao. Now go record it and say it online to make money

5 minutes? I think you meant 2 weeks 😅

Well that’s not much different from live action shows painting certain things in a dramatic/exaggerated way compared to how it usually is in reality

Because seinen eats that shit up

Probably it is mostly about target audience which is shounen or boys. Most of the younger audience are facinated on unrealistic things like superpowers, cool fighting scenes or fantasy-like settings

@@rkconcepcion4387 its because shonen specializes in the FANTASY rather than slice of life, this guy is just a dirty neck beard posting weird takes with youtube shorts

Indeed, taizan 5 manga series, Blue box, akane banashi are all realistic premises. in the end of the day, if you want to only look for realistic settings than dont look for wsj obv lol. there is young jump

facts. Assassination classroom is the only anime that made me tear up which is crazy.

​@@ania3187they're not talking about the realism in the anime they're talking about the series being banned because of the title

Agree, the ending was really awesome, which is something I cannot say for most of my favorite Animes! Although, MC's transformation from a murderer to someone who wouldn't let anyone die no matter what did not make much sense, even if he did went through a traumatic death of his girl!

Do you know what underrated means? Because it is clearly not.

Underrated your ass. Child nowadays always use the word underrated when they dont talk to them about that specific stuffs everyday. Maybe use internet when the series WAS still ongoing. Its a completed series, so its obvious not many talked about this title anymore esp when the conclusion is pretty satisfying.

Blue box so fire such an underrated new gen

not really when Slam Dunk existed in the 90s. not to mention Bakuman, and there are countless other examples especially with sports series and romcoms in Jump. Jump has a massive catalogue of series. Idk why people act like it's only battle shonen in Jump.

@@MAYUTHEUNDEAD lol

Well is dark fantasy for adults. Not shonen and not realistic.

I much prefer Gunnm where a 10m tall centurion who controls an organisation who wants to destroy a corrupt governement by making a city hanging in the sky fall onto another city below with a really big katana and a giant train-canon loaded with the brains of their fallen camarad btw, that's just 1 thing that happens in this manga, a lot of other crazy things happens (read gunnm, it's a cool seinen, it's underrated)

@@SirDieALot666 correct. its in an entirely different category of manga called "seinen". Shounen obviously meaning young boy, is aimed for younger kids. Not that adults cant enjoy shounen stuff like one piece or even dragonball

Well if you don't consider all of the magic stuff, it's technically a manga that is really close to reality, and that's why nobody wants to animate it properly

This is an awful take lmao

​@@lana_del_Rei.neet-why, most people want to escape reality, cause its sad

​@@lana_del_Rei.neet-it's not a take though. It's their experience. He didn't say other types of manga were bad 😂

@@lana_del_Rei.neet- No, this is a great take actually. What people think "realism" in storytelling is, isn't actually realism. True realism is antithetical to the very concept of storytelling. Stories are always constructed in a teleological way, meaning the author has some kind of goal in mind when they tell their story. That's what makes something a story. An underlying logic that connects the sentences you put to paper both on a small and large scale. It's what distinguishes your words from the incoherent ramblings of a madman or an AI. Stories are, inevitably, all about choices, they have starting and end points, arcs for plot and characters, themes they try to address. Reality doesn't do any of that. Reality is an almost entirely disconnected sequence of events that can only be rationalized post-hoc to appear like it's even somewhat cohesive. Reality doesn't start, it doesn't end, it doesn't follow along any kind of internal logic. In reality, stuff just kinda happens. In stories, everything that happens, happens for a reason. People who bellyache about a lack of "realism" in stories are just pretentious and can't admit to themselves that creating and consuming stories is ultimately always a form of philosophical escapism from the void of meaning that is the real world. Whether the story is more fantastical or more "plain" and grounded ultimately just amounts to different flavors of the same underlying thing.

Oh brother , thats a very sad life. But each to their own. So many things learnt from these stories could be used to live real life but alas it goes down the drain

Finally someone who remembers those two classic shonen manga's

Dude said realistic i dont think shoot a tank with a pistol and making it explode is realistic

​@@raymartbenjamin1538Still more realistic than having any sort of spirit power, being about to travel to the afterlife or anything else that obviously couldn't exist in real life like exploding dudes by touching their pressure points.

There's also Rokudenashi Blues which was boxing if I remember right.

​@@nicodalusong149Also "Rookies" a baseball manga from the same author.

same, reality sucks and is just depressing.

I LOVE THAT MANGA BROOO 😭😭

No its not realistic , aint no way people doing puzzles in a coma is realistic

@@toonyandfriends1915 *WARNING slight spoilers* It's one of the most realistic ones I found on shonen jump that fits the criteria and (I'm restraining myself to not spoil too much of this) it gets a lot more realistic as the manga goes on. It's still not fully realistic but if you are caught up and ignore a single key plot point which will most definitely have a much more detailed explanation for later it pretty much is.

Also, there is literally a currently running series in Jump rn called Akane Banashi that's extremely grounded with its story. It's about rakugo, and the most abnormal thing about it compared to real life is that the manga chooses to visually portray the rakugo stories being told like they're Domain Expansions from Jujutsu Kaisen

Its wewkly shounen magazine not shounen jump

Bro , I have read strawberry 100% , one of the manga which got me into romance genre . Why are you saying it's not completed ?

@@harsvardhan6107 In Japan the manga had 19 volumes. Only 14 of those volumes were published in the US. I read the remaining chapters online on a fan translation site, and my favorite scene in the whole series, where Junpie's ex-girlfriend, Tsukasa, does a chin-up to confess that she still loves him and wants to get back together, harkening back to when he asked her out in the first chapter, was never released in an actual SJ-translated volume. The story in the US just sort of ends on a random chapter and Junpie clearly hadn't made a decision on what girl he really wanted, though the story made it clear that Aya was the most likely candidate. That made Tsukasa's confession and Junpie's ultimate decision a complete surprise.
