Hi. I dont watch nor read JJK but I ger the gist and some spoilers here and there. Not sure if you are up to everything it happened but you think JJK is being way dark? Ok this feels an incomplete question. JJK does promete itself as a dark shonen (its what I heard) my question is...isnt passing the mark?
Bc all I hear is characters dying left and right. Despair for others. And again, JJK is a dark story...it would be stupid of me to ask "hey why cant all get along" but as someone who lurks in others fandoms....
Isnt JJK being way too dark? Too hopeless?
Maybe this will be the story where the MC dies but sometimes it feels gratuitos how everyone is griefing and suffering and losing people they love.
I send this question in good faith. I dont watch the anime nor read the manga. It felt too dark for me. It reached a dark point to me to say no.
But this is my opinion.
Hi👋 @mikeellee
I definitely see where you're coming from and to be honest to me jjk has gotten a bit too much with killing characters left, right and centre at this point it feels like a cheap way to create and build up higher stakes and tensions.
I definitely think that gege akutami should at least build up the characters properly before killing them off and destroying them. We have so many characters that lack development whether dead or alive I believe they should of gotten better treatment by the narrative like tsumiki,Yuki, shoko, utahime, momo, uro, Hana, nobara, remi, higumara and a whole lot more. These are the characters that come to the top of my head when I think of wasted potential.
Jjk is a series that uses characters and their deaths to help other characters develop like junpei, haibara and riko where both plot devices of a character but they had their own mini character arcs and actually felt like proper characters who where supposed to be there and to their own things but just got their lives snatched from them too soon.
I kinda believe that jjk is a story that repeats itself to basically show the idea of how history repeats itself or rhymes so it has a whole lot of parallels and characters going through similar character arcs. However, the story has a big theme of showing the younger generation and older generation differences and one way it does it is by having the younger generation break the older generations cycle and actually succeed in their own way so Iam hoping that we get a bittersweet ending where the younger generation is able to break the cycle that was established but we still have a long way to go from there.
In my opinion jjk is definitely not the darkest shonen I have seen I think currently speaking chainsaw man or attack on titan takes the win for sure
