I can't deny this lol. Sometimes you like it from the start, but the start is very corny since it was made in the 90s, so it doesn't grab everyone right away, but it matures really well over time and becomes more timeless. But even then I have to admit it can be an acquired taste with its cartoony style and wacky characters/world.
It's a typical shounen with all it's troupes and cringy narrative. The start shouldn't shock people. It actually manages to grab people quickly enough compared to other shounens at their beginning.
Over the years the story matures and develops accompanying their audience. The beginning was for teens and now it still has the same fans and followers that are in their thirties.
It's hard for shows that are so long lived to maintain their engagement.
You're right and wrong, but the way you said it makes me think no one likes talking to you or much less holding a conversation with you. Which is why that's all I'll say.
Tf are you doing trying to critique a show you've never watched or read based on random video game versions of them, neither of which are accurately placed in any part of the canon timeline and are just for fun. That's the stupidest shit I've ever heard. That's like judging a series based on nothing but the McDonald's happy meal toys based on them. There's so much wrong with what you said I'm not even gonna bother trying to address it seriously.
I think what you're smelling is your own farts my dude. Nobody's forcing you to watch it, in fact I'm glad you won't.
I'm not really sure why it's such a bad thing. The fact that they're there and alive doesn't necessarily detract from the story. They interact with so many other characters that get a lot of screen time compared to the main crew, and those characters eventually leave or die. And it's fine. I'm not looking for the crew members to die and be replaced.
