And the average person wouldn't know Toriyama by name, either. He just passed away, so his name has been in the news lately.

@Charged151 I don't know why you think you have any credibility when you already admitted your ignorance on Spirited Away.

Dragonball is more well known than any of the works Miyazaki has done though.

Spirited Away is the second highest grossing anime film ever and won an Oscar. It's even shown in schools.

The highest grossing DB movie isn't even in the top ten.

My argument is that Toriyama's work is more accessible because televisions are more widely used, and in households compared to people going to the movies. Which in turn makes him more iconic because his work is more likely to be seen.

A television show isn't more iconic than a movie just because it's "more likely to be seen", no.

You said that Miyazaki's movies aren't as accessible because people didn't have easy access to theaters or home video, implying that they can't just watch it on TV.

Toriyama is more iconic just because his work is/was more accessible, especially in Latin America, and the west.

His 2001 film Spirited Away became the highest-grossing film in Japanese history,[b] winning the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, and is frequently ranked among the greatest films of the 21st century. Miyazaki's later filmsHowl's Moving Castle (2004), Ponyo (2008), and The Wind Rises (2013)also enjoyed critical and commercial success. Following the release of The Wind Rises, Miyazaki announced his retirement from feature films, though he later returned to write and direct his twelfth feature film The Boy and the Heron (2023), for which he won his second Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

I was mulling it all over when along came Molester #1 and he put his TV right on PBS Kids again, he wrote, according to the newspaper chain. But this time, someone else said something to the effect of Is this guy really going to watch this right in front of us? and I recall saying, I got this. And I picked up the cane and went to work on him.
Watson said he then left the housing pod to find a guard and turn himself in, but on the way, he saw a known child trafficker, and I figured Id just do everybody a favor, Watson wrote. In for a penny, in for a pound.
Watson said he then told a guard, who didn't believe him until he looked around the corner and saw the mess Id left in the dorm area, Watson wrote.
Watson is in segregated housing while he is under investigation for the killings. He hasn't been charged yet.
Being a lifer, Im in a unique position where I sometimes have access to these people and I have so little to lose, Watson wrote. And trust me, we get it, these people are every parents worst nightmare."

And the martial arts tournament did still have Saitama being a gag the whole time through while showing up regularly with a great punchline.

Can't hate one mountain of pointless filler yet praise another. By the Monster Association arc, it should be expected.

It was taking so long for the MA arc to finish BECAUSE of Murata dragging all the one page gag fights into hundreds of pages of serious shonen battling and then adding several dozen more chapters of serious yet unimportant shonen battle filler.

The manga has been adding filler that wasn't in the webcomic from day one LOL. Remember that entire martial arts tournament?

If you want something free of fluff, then you're reading the wrong manga.

He'll get less OP the more time goes on. Everyone else is getting stronger except Saitama.

He literally fused with himself to become stronger.

Saitama will always be OP. And making him not OP wouldn't make anything better because then the series would just be taking itself more seriously

Boros did not threaten any important character directly, let alone kill. Saitama did not take Boros seriously at all and just treated him like a toddler too albeit a bit more somberly.

Series is called One-Punch Man and up to this point, Saitama has taken down everyone in one punch.

Saitama uses more than one punch against Boros.

May as well end the series there, because he's no longer One-Punch Man.

It was taking so long for the manga to finish the Monster Association arc that there needed to be something major to keep people interested. Adapting the webcomic straight-up wouldn't have been exciting enough. They already introduced a whole ass multiverse, so there are plenty of directions for the story to take.

Not that any of them will be interesting, though. OPM is a novelty series that should have ended early on. It doesn't work as a long-running series because a deliberately OP protagonist is only interesting for so long.

No, while it was more serious than usual, the fight was still very much non-serious

You don't need to type a whole nerdy ass paragraph about the final fight with Garo when that's not what I was talking about. He's just an edgy insert for bullied kids and he even gets off scot-free for all his crimes in typical dumb Shonen fashion .

It's typical Shonen trash. Being a "gag series" doesn't stop it from being that when there are plenty of gag Shonen.

I would've said this years ago but now it really is trying to be an average tryhard shonen series itself ever since the severe MA arc changes from the webcomic.

The only real difference is that the webcomic is drawn like shit and the manga isn't. OPM has basically been typical Shonen trash from the start, at least since the Genos's debut. The introduction of the Hero Association further compounded this and the villain Garo is the exact kind of cliched nonsense you'd expect from Shonen.

While the story begins to take itself more seriously later on, it still has a lot of gag influence. That doesn't stop it from being typical Shonen-esque trash, though.
