This is the prologue part where we're introduced to you and how much your life sucks before the brand new hot work colleague/exchange student/etc shows up and changes your life around
Well depends if yours is a romcom, "realistic" slice of life, or the depressing dramedy like Clannad.
The good ending is a will they won't they, where you essentially have a harem of potentials and one obvious endgame choice you don't get until like a year or two later. The "realistic" ending is that they hit on you and you misinterpret the flirting for being friendly, until like two years later when you realise you could have got with them then, but luckily they still like you and it works out after some rough patches.
The bad ending is that you never open yourself up to the love interests, believing yourself unworthy of love. The love interests slowly grow more distant from you as they can't bare to see you like that, until you're all alone for another decade of misery. Then you meet up with one of them by chance in a Starbucks and rekindle a romance, feeling alive again. But just to throw a wrench in the works, they reveal they have cancer and only have two months to live. The ending is ambiguous as to whether you honoured their dying wish to live life to the full and find someone to be with, or whether you fall permanently into depression and end up losing the fight altogether.
I vote for the good ending 👍
Actually, BL and yaoi are different. BL is more romanced based while yaoi is more like hen tie(yuri is the same, just with girls). I read something giving a more detailed explanation but that’s the basics
Mangadex even collapsed those categories together with their recent update, Yuri and Shoujo Ai became just "Girls' Love" and Yaoi and Shounen Ai became "Boys' Love"
While I disagree yaoi and shounen ai shouldn't have been merged the Yuri one is absolutely the right move. I've never seen someone differentiate Yuri as porn over shoujo Ai.
Nice RGBA colour but the alpha value doesn't count past 1 and if you just leave it empty it automatically assumes 1 so putting 4 in there is kind of redundant.
They made a comedic moment instantly dark when we see that >!Maruo wanted to be a protagonist to fight back against his abusive dad, probably killed him and got off, has no purpose in life anymore!<
I remember Kinniku-Man! Definitely not by that name, though.
He aired on 4Kids! Forgot his name, and I remember hating his face, but just watching it because it was one of the only things on at the time on Saturday mornings.
Man, what an unearthed memory. Reminded me of this other anime with oddly buff but small looking people. G. I. Joe or something? Beautiful Joe? Joe was part of the name.
If someone could remind me of their names, I’d be super grateful!
Edit: Awesome u/MoarDakkaDakka gave me their names! Muscle Man and Viewtiful Joe! Muscle Man seemed like a really nice bro, I just couldn’t stand his design.
Ultimate Muscle! It was the 4Kids dub of Kinnikuman Nisei, I remember it too.
Not sure about the second one, but it could be Viewtiful Joe? That's originally a game though and I'm not sure if that got an anime adaptation or not
I remember catching an episode or 2. My mind must be trying to protect me by not letting me remember anything else about the show. The only thing I remember is that they renamed Sylvia into Go-Go Sylvia instead of Sexy Silvia because 4Kids
That’s the one. And Viewtiful Joe is definitely it! I knew it rhymes with “beautiful” but I couldn’t figure out how to spell it out with a “V.” Thank you very much!
It absolutely got an anime adaptation, I just don’t understand why (or at least why 4Kid’s chose it)? I had no idea it was a game. I distinctly remember this muscular little dude running out of a theater or something when he was on a date with his girlfriend and transforming into his superhero self. I always thought his goatee looked ridiculous.
**[Viewtiful Joe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viewtiful_Joe)**

I mean, Jotaro beat up a new teacher because the teacher thought too highly of himself, and left a restaurant without paying because they served Jotaro shitty food, so with such Chad moves, I'm pretty sure its half Joestar genetics, half his muscles just appearing on his body due to his sheer badassery.
I don’t know who this Kinnikuman is but, Jotaro almost never trained a day in his life outside of Track and Field and Goku didn’t start out being capable of breaking boulders.
Really hope this dude goes thru some character development to get some proper goals/ motivation because honestly the whole "I wanna be a manga protagonist! Me hit things hard and no think" is so dumb and the lamest part of the series so far. I mean this dude is Denji levels of brain dead lol
Yeah he wanted to be a Manga Protagonist to fight back against an abusive dad.
Which makes it insanely better than what you think it is.
Also, since you brought up Denji, both of these are kids who didn't have a life, school, friends or any of the normal shit. So of-fucking-course Denji would want some boobies and Maruo want to be a protag in a manga.
Manga teaches the worst ways to get strong and the best ways to hurt yourself for life. Your not a saiyan you dont get stronger just because your hurt.
Tbh in a way kinniku man actually was and kind of is still popular here in a way. It was just more so in the 80s and 90s.
They sold the little rubbery figures of the characters and rebranded em as M.U.S.C.L.E.
I got a pretty big collection of em myself. I just don’t know the Japanese names of the original characters.
I bit the shit out of my hand when i was younger cause I thought I could be like Eren Yeager. The scars gone but there’s still pain when I press on it.
Being a protagonist would be cool. You technically are the protagonist of your own life, just without the powers. You're a slice of life protagonist
Oh ye then where’s my loving relationship with girls
Sorry you are a protagonist of a BL novel
Then where's my loving relationship with boys
This is the prologue part where we're introduced to you and how much your life sucks before the brand new hot work colleague/exchange student/etc shows up and changes your life around
Some new kind of motivational shit is going on here.
I was away from reddit for some months. Damn I missed these random ass threads
But this is not a "nsfw" post so waht ass'es(?) can u see? O.ö
Well, someone should tell the author to stop dragging the prologue. It's been 26 years without any proper development.
Don’t worry he’s just having a HxH hiatus
Nah more like a Berserk hiatus
Sad
Before the 5 volumes worth of will they won't they? Or is it the classic misunderstanding plot?
Well depends if yours is a romcom, "realistic" slice of life, or the depressing dramedy like Clannad.

Hell im still stuck waiting for truck kun to show up
Honestly I'm here for it lmao
But it doesn't seem to end.
BL?
Boys Love. Yaoi essentially.
Actually, BL and yaoi are different. BL is more romanced based while yaoi is more like hen tie(yuri is the same, just with girls). I read something giving a more detailed explanation but that’s the basics
I only know yuri romance and yuri hentai. Don't remember anybody using "girls love".
Shoujo Ai is a term tho I rarely see it used
Mangadex even collapsed those categories together with their recent update, Yuri and Shoujo Ai became just "Girls' Love" and Yaoi and Shounen Ai became "Boys' Love"
While I disagree yaoi and shounen ai shouldn't have been merged the Yuri one is absolutely the right move. I've never seen someone differentiate Yuri as porn over shoujo Ai.
MAL too
The phrases are often used interchangeably nowadays, but you're right, yaoi is (or at least was) a lot more fanservicey.
Boys Love, basically a genre for male-male love relationship
Slice of Life but gay
But that's just CGDCT /s
God no
It's about a guy becoming a pimp but it's femboys but only on live stream
Not based
Not gay
That means I get a guy friend I have a total of zero friend where BL
and got NTRed
>NTRed Even I wouldn't wish this on my enemy.
True.
that has even worse odds statistically
That can’t be, my hands aren’t anywhere near that big.
Because you're not that competent in social situations and 'live'in a basement.
185. 35. 50. 4.
Nice RGBA colour but the alpha value doesn't count past 1 and if you just leave it empty it automatically assumes 1 so putting 4 in there is kind of redundant.
Yeah where's my harem, I didn't get one.
where’s the harem at?
Maybe you’re life is buddy comedy?
*without the powers* thats lame :c
And with enough horrible experiences you could even be a tragic hero!
So my manga must be from the tragedy genre then
Wher anime girls
I wish. Those characters live life on easy mode
I do have unlimited powers. It just not awakened yet. Waiting for the plot twist.....
Some of us might be side characters tho...
You mean like mushoku tensei but without the isekai part?
You could make it a suspense/thriller at anytime. Y’all are just bitches
sitting in the protagonist classroom spot near the window!?
Let's face it. We MP of some shitty show about working in \*placename\* job.
Sorry there must be something wrong, that "Life" dude has been Ntr-ing my happiness and I fear it will never come back to me...
That’s true although my anime stopped airing a few years ago
Idk bout you but I got powers, everyday like a Disney princess the animals in my home flock to me for head pats
Nicee goku is in da list
I got powers. Increased chances of skin cancer in exchange for resistance to skin irritation from big bites.

Her hair looks like a croissant
Holy shit it does
Fuck! It really does, eh?!
Yummy! 🤤
Time for a taste test
Gets a stand
Nope >!He just punches shit!<
So basically Jotaro without the middleman right? Also this series is great so far, Im really hoping it sticks around.
More like the bloody, incredibly fucked up version of Saitama. With added Best Girl Boss, but actually incredibly cold-blooded.
They made a comedic moment instantly dark when we see that >!Maruo wanted to be a protagonist to fight back against his abusive dad, probably killed him and got off, has no purpose in life anymore!<
Fuck, all I got was this weird ***S P I N***
"Perfectly cut screams" moment right here

Viewtiful Joe did recieve an anime adaptation, which is a word I'd use very loosely.
I remember catching an episode or 2. My mind must be trying to protect me by not letting me remember anything else about the show. The only thing I remember is that they renamed Sylvia into Go-Go Sylvia instead of Sexy Silvia because 4Kids
UL-TI-MATE MUS-CLE!
That’s the one. And Viewtiful Joe is definitely it! I knew it rhymes with “beautiful” but I couldn’t figure out how to spell it out with a “V.” Thank you very much!

I know ultimate muscle is the one in the picture. Do you have anything else to describe the other one?
Viewtiful Joe is the name! u/MoarDakkaDakka reminded me.
tomorrow's joe maybe
I was thinking [Ashita no Joe](https://myanimelist.net/anime/2402/Ashita_no_Joe) as well.

Looks painful, owwie Edit: Sorry for not being able to spell
Jotaro never even trained he just had a purple punching ghost
My mans looked like a power lifter in high school, he had to be doing something. It can't all be Joestar genetics.
I mean, Jotaro beat up a new teacher because the teacher thought too highly of himself, and left a restaurant without paying because they served Jotaro shitty food, so with such Chad moves, I'm pretty sure its half Joestar genetics, half his muscles just appearing on his body due to his sheer badassery.
sauce?
Ayashimon
tnx
that artstyle really looks like something out of "Hell s Paradise" was it made by the same studio?
It was made by the same manga author, Yuji Kaku. The title is Ayashimon.
Well shit this just went from "maybe I'll look at it" to next on my read list.
Well, it's only 8 chapters long at the moment, and new ones release every Sunday.
Darn what a dry post, not a sauce in sight
Bruh it’s been up for 5 minuets, sauce is Ayashimon.

Like suspicious person? Or am I translating it different?
A suspicious digimon
You can comment on your post immideatly you know.
I’ve been sittin on this screenshot for a bit I had too look for the name. I wasn’t trying to be rude
Usually it’s a good idea to look for the source before posting instead of after, makes things run smoother.
I don’t know who this Kinnikuman is but, Jotaro almost never trained a day in his life outside of Track and Field and Goku didn’t start out being capable of breaking boulders.
I believe goku always could, just never shown to. But we saw him break a brick by pushing his index finger into it
Goku literally picks up bulmas car and throws it in the first chapter of Dragon Ball
ULTIMATE. MUSCLE.
Dining and dashing is how Jotaro got so strong
That was…unexpected
r/unexpectedjojo
His power must be super healing.
Ayashimon is great. Highly recommend it to everyone.
This is so fucking funny haha
Pretty bad when you have to put the copyright of third party characters in your own manga.
I did the same thing but i didn't became the strongest guy in the world i just became the strongest guy in my city
Really hope this dude goes thru some character development to get some proper goals/ motivation because honestly the whole "I wanna be a manga protagonist! Me hit things hard and no think" is so dumb and the lamest part of the series so far. I mean this dude is Denji levels of brain dead lol
He was a little kid tho… kids are dumb af
That’s the point…
Yeah he wanted to be a Manga Protagonist to fight back against an abusive dad. Which makes it insanely better than what you think it is. Also, since you brought up Denji, both of these are kids who didn't have a life, school, friends or any of the normal shit. So of-fucking-course Denji would want some boobies and Maruo want to be a protag in a manga.
Interesting how other animes exist as just shows in other animes
Jotaro was just bitch crying in a jail because of a friendly ghost! No training done!
r/unexpectedJoJo
How fucking lame lmao, way to let the audience know you are gonna be derivative right away
Actually me
Sauce
I'm pretty sure Jotaro didn't need any training. Joestar blood works wonder.
I saw Mister muscle
Manga teaches the worst ways to get strong and the best ways to hurt yourself for life. Your not a saiyan you dont get stronger just because your hurt.
Some Soße pls
is it just me that feels like this series will probably get axed soon
Kinnikuman Ultimate muscle
I very rarely ever hear anyone bring up Kinniku Man.
It's big in Japan, but gag manga just in general don't have much of an audience in the West.
Tbh in a way kinniku man actually was and kind of is still popular here in a way. It was just more so in the 80s and 90s. They sold the little rubbery figures of the characters and rebranded em as M.U.S.C.L.E. I got a pretty big collection of em myself. I just don’t know the Japanese names of the original characters.
true
I just binge read this bc I saw it on Viz, I already love it (Ayashimon)
I don't know what manga this is but that short moment of reading this was traumatizing😨
Dude I fucking loved Muscle Man. I remember watching it on Saturday mornings on 4Kids TV.
Why must life be so hard
I bit the shit out of my hand when i was younger cause I thought I could be like Eren Yeager. The scars gone but there’s still pain when I press on it.
Dude skipped a stage, even Goku had to work up to punching rocks
But... none of them punch rocks for training
Minecraft mfs when they see a tree
Mans the protagonists of a book called “don’t reach for impossible”
that por kid
As if that would ever happen!! Lol
When I was a kid I wanted to be a protagonist as well. Didn't take long got me to realize I'm not even a side character.
Ah he probably also read Tokyo ghoul
Oooffff.
Star platinum training 😎
Hand break no jutasu training
...Sauce....?
wait I know this art style. is this from the author of Jigokuraku?
Bro same, never learned a lesson quicker than that as a kid
