What's up, everyone?

As you know, Megalo Box is a tribute to Ashita no Joe...

Therefore, I was curious, how many of you actually watched it?

If so, did you like it? If not, then why haven't you?

Ashita no joe is a classic. I love it and have been in love with it for 3 or 4 years now. I really prefer it over Megalobox, but megalobox is still solid. Ashita no joe is my number one if your enjoying megalobox you should try it out. Its dated, but you can get over that easily as the story and characters will shine through. Dont watch the movies though..

Thanks, man.
sadly, youtube is evil itself.
I still got 2 videos of Ashita no Joe, on my channel. I think...

-------------------

When megalo box came out I was shocked cos I really wanted to see what they created for joe's 50th anniversary. the first season was 8/10 but after season 2 came out, I'm watching it and it's 9.5/10 for me now. both seasons.
let's see I might give it 10 if it ends properly. like anj.
it keeps getting darker...
let's see if it can become as dark as Ashita No Joe
I really think this Joe gonna die in the ring IDK maybe cos Ashita no joe had so much effect on me or just it's just a vibe idk.

Ashita No Joe is something way too much special to me...
It is more than just a manga or anime.
I can't compare it. for me anj is a goat.

Yeah, exact same here. I had s1 of Megalo Box rated as 8/10 but after watching some of s2 I upgraded them both to 10.

It just didn't feel complete at first and was not as dark as AnJ, so I could not count it as a proper tribute but now it seems like everything's coming together.

And speaking about scores... my 10 is more light than yours, I believe. Not all 10s are my favorites though.

I may revisit or talk about my 8s, 9s and 10s from time to time but the favorite ones are in my head daily.

So far, only Ashita no Joe and Cowboy Bebop have managed to get in there.

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

I mean... Anime literally has to be PERFECT so I can score 10.
my 10s are animes/mangas that are deep in my heart and head.
literally made me cry, excited and I will always remember all of my 10s animes
MASTERPIECE. I can't score 10 If anime is not perfect and can't touch my heart.
It is really hard for "ANIMES" to be on my list and be scored 10 tho :D
if you check my 400+ animes and scores you will understand.
Megalo Box pretty much will get 10 maybe idk. episode 7 was great as the previous ones
every episode is great. it becomes much better and better, as well as darker!
so I'm excited.

P.S well you can add me in ur friend list so u can comment :DD
i'll find it and will send you.

I used to rate very similar like you, only having very few 10s. But it kinda changed after watching Ghibli movies. You just can't score them lower than 10. Almost every single one of them is made straight out of heart but there's also quite a few of them. I can't just favorite them all, right? :D

There's also some brilliant shows like Dr. Stone, Vinland Saga, JoJos, etc. that are insanely enjoyable, so can you really score them less than 10 if they managed to excite your days when nothing else did?

The 9s and 10s in my list were a temporary bliss, so to speak. Favorites are forever though.
