Oh yeah, I remember that you hated Jet Set Radio. Yeah, your taste in everything is shit (IN MY OPINION).

I'm just joking, dude.

If you have any other manga you'd like to recommend to me I'd be willing to give your tastes another chance.

Man, my last post was so apt and I hate to ruin it but I have to address something.

The second Volume is where it kinda... yeahhhhh
I understood what he was going for early on. Everything that happened afterwards just felt like needless hammering. It just... was a bit too much. All the visions...

I'm surprised you criticized Music of Marie for this when Snowpiercer was much worse about the needless hammering.

It was mainly the visions that bothered me.

What was wrong with the visions?

There was no need for them.

Their purpose was to show what would happen in a world without Marie.

Not only was it obvious, the manga also had it written out. Heck, we even saw what happens before that.

Okay but how is Snowpiercer any better? That whole classroom scene was pretty much the same thing.

I don't remember saying that Snowpiercer was any better.

Well you certainly had nothing but glowing praise for that movie.

Volume 1 - The Lizard King

"Did he give me a shounen to read?"
"God damn it, he gave me a shounen to read."
"Is this Bleach?"
"This is Bleach."
"Yep, it's Bleach."
"Yep. Totally Bleach."
"Oh, she wants to- I am intrigued."

That said, it's interesting enough and characters are good, although it features almost every shounen trope. All that's missing is the MC fighting some kind of inner demon. The "Twist" is a nice change to the shounen forumla.
