Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is the greatest manga of all time

They were never a new big three. The only big three it's one piece, Naruto and bleach and nothing else and that it's a fact. It's the big 3 for a reason that no new series reach because what those 3 did they were the only one to do it since they were there are the right time and place.

@Otakupervert890 I look at the view count on the Manga Plus app and all 3 of the ones I listed are virtually tied around 300k to 400k views per chapter and fluctuate within that range. Only other mangas that do that are MHA/JJK which as I said are ending. Every other manga can’t break 200k.

@Krystopher and the view doesn't count because it's not what made the big 3 the big 3. Instead of trying to push a new big three you should look into why the big 3 was the big 3 in the first place it would be a better use of your time.

@Otakupervert890 What made the big 3 “the big 3” was most definitely the fact that were all the biggest shonen titles in the 2000s.

@Krystopher Shonen it's a demographic so what you are saying it's just lip service you should actually look into because the real answer is way more simple and have more ramification that your attempts to create a new big three without even understanding why the big 3 was one in the first place.

There's nothing worse than labeling random series as the "next big thing" for no apparent reason other than roleplay.

Everyone knows what the big 3 was, the 3 top, best selling and most popular manga 2 decades ago. The title of "big 3" is just a popularity term, so "next big thing" is an accurate description of any series associated with the title itself.

1.One Piece
2.Chainsaw man
3.Dandadan

@ZXEAN idek what dandadan is, I looked into it and apparently Boruto tbv isn’t doing good with manga sales in Japan but is on top of views on the digital manga apps, weird, I hope this can be fixed because I do love Boruto and it gets so much shit that it doesn’t deserve wish people were with me on this instead of fighting me.

There's always talk of a new "Big 3" but it's not about just sales numbers or popularity, it's about a generational series that sent ripples throughout media worldwide, it's likely a once in a lifetime happening. I like Chainsaw Man, but in what world can you compare its influence to the likes of One Piece? Naruto? Or even the smallest of the three, Bleach?

You can personally consider them that way if you wish, but the thing is: for most people, the "Big 3" doesn't just mean "whatever series are the top 3 most popular at any given time".

That title was specifically attributed to One Piece, Naruto and Bleach because they ran almost uninterrupted for years and years in both manga and anime form, and consistently competed with each other in popularity for about a decade.

Those kinds of conditions have never really been recreated for later mainstream shounen titles since their anime adopted the seasonal approach and the options became much more numerous.

Looking at your own candidates for the "new Big 3", I just don't see it:

- I mean, One Piece is the exception. That one's still huge and it obviously retains its spot still.

- Boruto has never quite captured the same level of popularity as its predecessor once did, nor has it managed to overshadow any of the more recent popular shounen contenders. Also, isn't the anime on hiatus right now?

- I dunno much about Chainsaw Man, but didn't the anime's first season get blasted by most fans and manga readers? I also read that its Bluray/DVD sales severely underperformed, to the point where a second season follow-up is now in question.

@Stygian_Prisoner People had a problem with Chainsaw Man? Man, whatever, I don’t understand the anime community anymore.

@Stygian_Prisoner

As far as battle manga sales go I saw this for digital sales

@Krystopher
Huh, that's interesting. I didn't know Boruto's manga was doing that well. So I guess most of the issues people have with it are coming specifically from the anime side of things? From what I heard, the anime fell into the trap of having to put out endless non-canon filler, because it didn't go with the seasonal format route that would give the manga a chance to get further ahead.

tf are u on about? Boruto is Big 1, the rest are all lower.

@Krystopher
Yeah, from what i picked up here and there, a lot of people were hating on studio MAPPA's use of CGI models (which I can believe 'cause I remember Attack on Titan fans having that same attitude towards MAPPA's handling of the Final Seasons), and I think I read some criticisms about the anime director's Hollywood-esque, cinematic style not meshing well with the manga's visual tone and presentation. They were saying it was like a betrayal of the mangaka's vision or something lol.

@Krystopher

a lot of people didnt like the anime because it didnt really feel like chainsawman and they made the horrible executive decision of making it 12 episodes which basically made it an anime about nothing. that only covered 30 something chapters out of a 90+ chapter part. imagine if jjk only stopped at 12 episodes? people would also think the anime is kinda shit.

@Stygian_Prisoner

whattttt
the only reason they did the hollywood-esque style is because fujimoto is a cinephile. and he was also heavily involved in the production

This is a joke i can't believe someone calling this manga a masterpiece.

@internetguy214 I love it, sorry that you can’t see its value

@Krystopher Go read better mangas like pandora hearts.

@internetguy214 What’s special about Boruto is there is so much lore behind the plot now that everything that happens has so much more meaning compared to other manga, and what is happening is very interesting.
