Flaws in your favorite Verses/Characters?

[VersusJunkie54]

What are flaws or errors about your favorite characters and verses that you can admit?

Like things you dislike about them, things that didn't make any sense, etc etc.

Stephen King's work in general can be outright stupid when it comes to people being screwed over by PIS.

A lot of this is due to the fact that Stephen King seems downright afraid to make his characters have any sort of prolonged fights with each other. Most conflicts end in a few pages at most, with certain good guys getting fodderized in seconds as well as a lot of villains dying or being forced to retreat after putting up about as much fight as the common mook. This actually gets really annoying when it comes to the more powerful villains of his work, since a lot of those guys are built up to be almighty badasses who pose a genuine threat to the main characters of whatever they appear in.

From a VS debating perspective, it also sucks that so many powers and skills in the verse are as vaguely defined as they are. It makes cataloging them an absolute chore sometimes, since it leaves certain showings with numerous different interpretations that are difficult to separate from each other or determine which is the most accurate.

Gohan is lazy and doesn't train hard enough

Reinhard Heydrich not using his spear off the bat OVO

Dragon Ball in general is a bit weird with some inconsistent writing with its characters and shounen has weird asspulls at times yet while faulty i do somehow live with it

History's Strongest Disciple's ridiculous level of fanservice.

Ichigo Kurosaki is wasted IMO. He got Quincy, Hollow, Shinigami, Human and Fullbring inside him and yet he's stuck with the samebol' getsuga moves I know he can use gran rey cero but still, no hax whatsoever, all of the "New Bankai Hype" is all for nothing.

In a battle with equalized stats between HST protagonists he might be lose to Luffy or Naruto In my honest opinion (Luffy got precog and stuff while Naruto, well. Rasengan variants + Clones + Kyuubi + Regen. You name it).

Bleach in general can be inconsistent and like the above, some character is wasted (we still don't know Aizen's bankai for god sake) and it can be repetitive. SS and Arrancar arc basically has the same theme: A Rescue Mission. And the anime have too much filler and also repetitive and the verse is really lack of destruction feats ovo

I mean, c'mon Kubo! Destroying a mountain or lifting the part of SS/Vandenreich or whatever it's called is not enough! We need more explosion and destruction! At least show us that Yhwach destroy something like moon, continent or anything else! Don't just implied Yhwach can merged the three world, we need a feat to support it Kubo!

But, despite all of it's flaws. Bleach will remain as one of my favorite series of all time.

I want to leave any toxic fanbases/wankers out, but I will discuss some. Admittedly, it's hard to see major flaws with my very favorite versus; but I do see and can admit to significant flaws with characters whom I really like, but not quite a very favorite.

Saitama is the obvious answer; we was well intended to be a bland generic character who's physically overpowered. That's pretty much the joke of it, but it is good to notice that the later scenarios for the most part focus on other/deeper characters that simply have Saitama one-shot the bad guy at the last minute. It's not unreasonable for fan theories suggesting that Genos is the actual protagonist. However, Saitama is still surprisingly great for what he is; he's still turns out to be hilarious without even trying.

moving the earth caused the nullification of a 10-D time manip (PKNA-PK2-PKNE continuity) and UT geno

Pokémon is just a ripoff Digimon. And Digimon is a ripoff Pokémon.

I just pissed off everyone, including myself ovo.

 

[RRTheEndMan]

cal, you changed propic?

I don't like the way that the Nasuverse lore is proceeding. I first got into it for Tsukihime and vampires, and not only are they de-emphasized but also essentially used as measuring sticks for Servants (******* Roa has just become some guy Dantes killed while he was alive), but they've basically been condemned to a forgotten alternate universe with a remake that will never be released because everyone is too busy drooling over Servants. Fate/stay night was the best Fate work and everything since then has been going downhill, and the power creep invalidates a lot of the past accomplishments in the setting and true Magic is becoming less and less special as every fancy Caster has magecraft on that level.

I thought Digimon was a ripoff of Tamagachi
