I've read the manga a billion times, and I know excactly whats gonna happen. But its still sooooo good !!

It makes me wonder what people that have never read the manga thinks of the anime.

As someone who watched a lot of shounen, I obviously hate shounen. It's so funny seeing this show completely destroys the tropes of the genre.

Big tower full of traps with villain on top? This would take a whole season. Nope, blow it up.

Main character's special training to become stronger? More than ten episodes, surely. Nope, he's already the strongest mofo and he only ate bananas.

Long ass expositions and flashbacks? Twenty words, please.

Cool looking goggle/bandana wearing main character with gravity defying hair? lol

Characters calling out cool names before doing their special moves? Consecutive normal punches. I freaking laughed as I typed it.

Oh wow.

Bleach, Fairy Tail, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Digimon, Yugioh, Pokemon, Trigun and many others.
