Only initially! Endo has said that after two volumes he feels that the characters are established enough work in more long form storytelling
There's still gonna be gags but you can feel the tonal shift in the most recent chapters for sure
That and there seems to be a lot of "she only kills those who deserve it" energy.
These early episodes suffer from 90's anime villain speeches really badly.
Yeah, I know. These speeches sort of stand out even compared to other 90's anime I've watched though.
Oh, I thought they might get treated like real characters with emotional development and stuff.
But if it's just Japanese Loony Toons I shall adjust my expectations accordingly.
Manga spoilers
Well, that's a lot more than I expected, at least. (And more than teachers make, sadly. Hell, dispatchers don't make that.) I'm all for them getting some union representation going, though.
Do tell, I'm not knowledgeable enough about 90s manga series and authors to tell
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh WHAT
Oda was an assistant for the kenshin author, and is still noted friends with him even after the child porn charges
Watsuki also mentored other authors like the guy who did shaman king
Well yeah it's not like he did drugs or something
Oh, is that why the beginning of One Piece didn't gel with me that much? I read Kenshin as a kid/teen, it was emotionally compelling at the time but I've cooled off on it significantly. I guess I was subconsciously wary of stuff that looked similar?
Yeah, I definitely see it taking that Dragon Ball path, from “gag series which sometimes goes hard” to “straightforward story with gag elements”
…I guess that could also be One Piece, or a lot of other shonen type stuff, but my childhood is rooted in Dragon Ball and early Dragon Ball is such a gag series

When one stares directly into the anime trash pile, the trash stares back into *you*.

Good god, anime fans are the fucking worst
there is some deep dumb in those communities. just a complete illiteracy towards the basics of storytelling and some sort of fighting game brainrot that turns every plot development into a tier list. also weirdly territorial and adversarial about characters that are canonically bonded deeper than family or friendship almost like it was the central theme of the story.
Just
So stupid
So, so fucking stupid
the one piece subreddit introduced a "powerscaling" flair but i think they stumbled a bit with execution of its implementation. instead of posting to r/OnePiece things like "Advanced CoA/CoC Zoro would lowdiff doubled awakened Blackbeard, a 3000 word treatise", it should just route those posts to an old daisy wheel printer that leads directly to a shredder that dumps into an incinerator which dumps the ashes into a toilet. then the username and IP of the user are banned from reddit and preferably their ISP and all that is displayed on the screen are the words "TOUCH GRASS AND MAYBE READ A BOOK".
Well, it's been less than 8 hours, and One Piece is aimed at minors, maybe most of the comments you read were by the Literally Immature?
Fandom in general then
and fair enough, it could be my bias that i tend to view anonymous english speaking anime discourse as probably mostly 22-40 year olds, but often times it does read exactly that way.
Ayashimon ended very abruptly, and I bet Shugomaru and Doron Dororon will follow suit shortly
At least that found a delightfully meta way to go out.

Probably just a confluence of ninja historically disguising as commonfolk with tools appropriate for the job, that just so happen to be functional as weapons, combined with European-type nobility stereotypically having butlers and maids. So when you have a ninja tasked with being bodyguard for nobility there's an easy link.
Alternatively, anime writers/artists with maid fetish
