    Thanks to Empires & Puzzles for sponsoring!
    Over the last several years I've reviewed many different manga and anime. So I figured I'd look back on all these stories and give them a ranking based on how I felt looking back on them today!
    Feel free to let me have it in the comments. Dragon Ball, One Piece, Hunter Hunter, Naruto, Bleach, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Attack on Titan, Death Note, Chainsaw Man, Fullmetal Alchemist, Mob Psycho 100, Berserk are just some of the tales on this list! Is this the greatest tier list of all time? Let me know :P

    I do agree that One Piece panelling is not the best because of how packed each page becomes with all the information but I think it should be noted that out of all the mangas you ranked, Oda is working with the manga that has by far the most story to tell and it doesn’t help that back in the days he could work with a lot more pages but some years after serialisation started they restricted him to only 17/18 pages per chapter. On top of that, people complain abt how much longer the story goes on so he’s really forced to do this type of panelling.

    • @Seminariteat

      If that was his only criticism I find it REALLY weird he didn't make a similar comment about HunterxHunter. One Piece pales in comparisson, HxH often times seems like a book 😅. And if that was his only criticism of One Piece, then I kinda... I couldn't really take the rest of his assesments seriously. But then again, it's his opinion so it's okay. Bcuz while FMA and Mob did nothing for me, they meant a lot to him. It really is a very subjective topic.

    The Bleach manga is one of the best examples on using white space to enhance the art.

    Regarding JoJo, I recommend for you to read Part 7. Unlike the previous 6 parts, Part 7 was released once a month, rather than once per every week.

      In subjectivity, you can use this list to see where Mark's preferences in media lay. Stories that alter his outlook on life positively are the ones that sit atop his list in Mob Psycho and Berserk. It's not just about how much he likes it, it's about how much of it sticks with him in daily life. Maybe that's why OP didn't make the cut?

It gave me a reason to keep living. As someone that used to suffer from really bad depression, something that made me want to keep going in life is gonna forever hold a special significance to me.
    It also being about following your dreams with those that you can call family also holds deep personal significance to me, along with it just being a well written story with world building unmatched by most other fictional series, and you've got my favorite piece of fiction of all time.

      What's crazy is that as much as I love One Piece, I felt like I had to come to a personal decision: do I love One Piece's world building as much as I love the character writing of Berserk?
      To this very day, I can NEVER get the Eclipse out of my head. To this day, no manga had me SOBBING as much as Berserk did as it went down and how I was begging through tears for it to stop. Never had I experienced a manga that told me the villain was evil but also slowly tricked me into liking him and wishing every time that I saw him that things could be good again(knowing that it never would be). Never had I seen a romance as raw and realistically complex and goddamn beautiful as Casca and Guts. Never had I seen a badass and phenomenally developed female character as I have Farnese. Through all the horror that's made me gag, the intimate moments that have had me crying or cheering with pure ecstacy, to the goddamn most beautiful artwork that came from Kentaro Miuara, Berserk changed my life forever.
      I still really enjoy One Piece. In fact, it's slowly climbing the ranks of my favorite shōnen series. But as a young adult, Guts' struggles are somehow more relatable. He's the biggest underdog in his own story. He's not supposed to win, but he keeps fighting anyway. With how HORRIBLE his backstory is, I'm surprised he still can fight to survive every day.

      one piece is amazing and its message is clear yet great: Freedom and dreams. Every character in some way either relates to or opposes freedom, whether it be the late gol D roger and him achieving his dream, or oden and his dream of making wano open, katakuri and his fear of being rejected for his mouth and love of donuts and tea, or even a minor character like ivankov, the whole story center's around being who you are and searching for your dreams, and so while the story may be completely fantastical, its message is one I'm sure a lot of people can relate to.

      However, with that being said, I have to make assassination classroom my no. 1. Never have I seen an anime balance and develop an entire classroom so well in such short time, with initial goal of killing koro-sensei remaining but your feelings about him changing throughout as you learn more about him and his true history that makes the pieces start to fit together yet it also delivers on its premise in such an emotion and sad way, yet still manages to pull of a happy ending after the timeskip without compromising koro-sensei's death and its impact. The side characters are also very well written, with the principal being an amazing foil to koro-sensei with his own unique backstory, and the villains are a healthy mix of unredeemable scumbags and genuinely interesting characters like the reaper.
      And it does all of this in 2 seasons.

The character's brains were working so fast and so many things happed at once that things appeared in slow motion. I think this scene would have flopped without the exposition over every single detail. I think it really increased the cataclysmic nature of the scene and the last arc in the Anime and made the scene especially great in the anime. I haven't red the manga, so I can't speak there but I think it was amazing.

      Nah, the rating criteria really should be tweaked according to the format of the series and stuff like that. One Piece is a long-running series with over 1050 chapters and it's still going. It has to pack in a lot of information in every chapter or it would take another ten years to wrap up. You can't compare its paneling in the same way to a shorter series like Fullmetal Alchemist, which only has 108 chapters. It's just silly to put so much emphasis on that, to the point where it downgrades One Piece's rating and yet does nothing to other "S" tier. Seriously.

This massive universe and mythos that Oda created cannot be contained on the medium anymore and that's the sacrifice he had to make to be able to tell the story in manga format.

    As an "online-only" One Piece reader, the paneling never was an issue for me. I do agree though that if someone reads it physically, especially in volumes, the panelling does become quite an issue. Personally that would in no way be enough for me to rank it down a tier as my values heavily lay in other places but this is your list.
    What I can *really* not fathom is putting AoT in S after those last X chapters. The ending to a story is the most important part and calling this butchered would be an understatement. Even when being nice, having this any higher than A is just weird to me.

      I don't think One Piece was robbed since there are a lot more things that hold it back. The story in One Piece has no tension. We know non of the straw hats will die or leave. Most arcs are East Blue / Alabasta on repeat. The strawhats arrive to a troubled island. Make friends with the locals and save them from the bad guys. the strawhat pirates beat the henchmen & minions of the main bad guy while Luffy beats the bad guy. Luffy might lose the first or second fight but he will come back and win the same arc. So you pretty much know everything that's going to happen from the beginning of the arc. The most different arc that didn't follow the formula (Marineford) was the most fun arc. There is no tension during those fights since you know that the strawhats wont die. Even the villains wont die. A fight just happens because it needs to happen. Most other long running battle shonen mangas have better fights than One Piece. and the humor is definite not for everyone. Humor is subjective so understand that many people wont enjoy Oda's jokes. Which can be stale for many fans since he repeats many jokes for 1000+ chapters (like Zoro getting lost for example). I think the best age to enjoy One Piece is around 11/12 yo. If you watch it as an adult you're probably not going to think it's masterpiece or S tier. But of course you should love whichever world and characters you love regardless of the quality of writing. This is why shonen exists after all. For people to enjoy them not to objectively ranking them or whatever.

    Any shot you'd ever cover Yu Yu Hakusho? It's one of my personal favorite anime's, with an MC and cast that's incredibly interesting to psychoanalyze, plus it's easy to recommend the English Dub as it does some awesome, albeit unneeded, heavy lifting that makes it stand out as the premiere way to experience the story in my opinion due to how it brings these characters to life, and has an insanely talented cast of voice actors such as our boy Justin Cook in what I consider one of the best casting choices and moments of voice acting ever, Christopher Sabat, Linda Young, and several other familiar faces in anime in side roles such as Kyle Herbert.
    Yusuke Urameshi is the main stand out of the anime though. He's incredibly refreshing and is just an overall joy every time he's on screen, and how he impacts the lives of others, and fights to impact his own world view, is just some of the best writing put to Shonen anime and I would love to hear your thoughts about the series in general.

    Thank you for understanding the true beauty of bleachs' most underrated arc. The fullbringer arc is amazing on a first time read, when you are as clueless as ichigo is, watching he be slowly mentally and emotionally tortured and until he hits his breaking point. He believes everyone he loves has turned on him, and in his ultimate hour of need the family he created, the people he changed in soul society, come to repay what they owe and then some. The TYBW arc, much like the arrancar arc, has some of the hypest moments in the whole series, but due to Kubos health at the time some aspects didn't get the spotlight that they should have, making the arc overall feel a bit bloated as well. Personally Bleach is in my top 5 with how much time and research and love I've put into the series (2 short fan fiction novels and currently dming a soon to be year long bleach 5e dnd campaign) so knowing some beach fans understand the fullbringer arc is nice

    • @daymianhogue1634

      The fullbring arc is definitely better than most people give it credit for, and alot of its hate, is it was in the anime post Aizen between filler arcs making it feel like filler... plus the animation team made Ginjos twist too obvious compared to the manga.
      But it still has a couple issues, like imagine if Ichigo just talked to his dad or something?
      Also the fact the soul society sent who they did is kinda fanservice... their mission wasn't to support Ichigo, it was to cut him down if he didn't ally with them. But they chose his friends to send? Kinda silly. But could've been fixed with just some dialog from Yama and Shunsui or Unohana simply saying they sent his friends hoping ichigo would be more likely to side with them, than with anyone else from soul society. But without that being headcanoned into existence? It just makes Yamas decision to send his friends seem poor.
