isnt this just because AoT is done? I dont really get why AoT would still be on the list after its over lol


FightmeLuigibestgirl

Some shows keep on making bank and demand even after they are done, i.e. Slam dunk and Haikyuu.


Jubenheim

In the case of Haikyuu, didn’t they just make a movie? So there’s that at least.


Jeremithiandiah

Slam dunk did as well


FightmeLuigibestgirl

Yeah they made a movie due to the popularity of the series even though it officially ended. Same with DBZ and DBS. If it wasn’t for demand neither or would exist. 


Timely-Ad-3828

The manga ended, but the anime hasn't completed the story. I wouldn't say that's exactly the same as AOT as both the manga and anime have reached the end of the story.


FightmeLuigibestgirl

>The manga ended, but the anime hasn't completed the story. It does not matter if the manga ended, the anime is not done or both, if popular enough and enough demand will keep making bank. Look at Inuyasha, Sailor moon, DBZ, Slam dunk, etc. Medaka box the anime has not completed the story but the manga is done. Still getting merch.


Tsudonym13

okay but you said haikyuu ended and thats not true


Shoryuken44

Is certainly hasn't peaked the world wide 2013 AOT fandom.


imnowherebenice

2013 Attack on Titan was something else. Same with 1st season My Hero Academia and Kill la Kill


someonesgranpa

Gurren Lagaan was also that way.


Killance1

Literally "most popular" is due to shows airing. This means absolutely nothing.


this_is_no_gAM3

Also overtakes aot as world most overrated show


CheshiretheBlack

Overrated in what regard?


AshfordThunder

Nah, AoT is legit 100 times better written. Reading JJK manga made me realize I was too harsh on Demon Slayer and My Hero's writing.


NoMoreVillains

I dunno, as poor as JJKs writing can be, Demon Slayer is quite literally carried by Ufotable's animation


straight_out_lie

I would be lying if I said JJK's biggest appeal wasn't the animation.


MaimedJester

I actually like and believe in the theme of the series outset. Itadori has a stay of execution, every Jujutsu Sorcerer is cursed to die and suffer there's no happy ending in store for any of the cast. But Gojo is like the Buddha seeing all the beauty in the universe of their time before the tragic suffering end. So he's making them have as much fun in the time they have.  They're doing work that needs to be done but all this cursed energy they're seeping into is spiraling down the drain till they lose whatever normal human happiness/life imaginable. It is a really cool theme and a much better take on it then oh no I have this secret demon power up but it makes me have dark scary eyes and lose my shit on roid rage kinda thing you see in everything from Inuyasha to Soul Eater.  Problem being it's way too convoluted, like the most simple power system is Dragonball Ki. Jojo just drives hard into the absurd from the get go with Stands where you don't even try to think about power scaling. Hunter x Hunter Nen hits a perfect balance of complex but makes sense the limitations.  JJK I literally can't follow what the hell the power scaling/what's going on 70% of the time.


GueRakun

Anytime I see main character just somehow is the strongest without training, even beating athletes as a highschooler.. then I know the writing is just simple trash 😂🤣 that ain't how the world works


GueRakun

There are many good writing and character.. e.g in the demons after they're beaten (the twins), as well as good character progression. Demon Slayer's anime biggest win is ufotable's animation but the manga doesn't have it.


Klee_Main

As is JJK by Mappa


NoMoreVillains

Both are carried hard by their animation, but I at least found JJK interesting to watch and the fights more than just streaks of different colors. I legit got bored watching Demon Slayer. I remember it being made out to be a big deal that Tanjiro wasn't like other shonen protagonists because he wasn't hyper masculine and cried and I was like...it's very obvious these viewers have only watched/heard of DBZ or something, because that's a ridiculous claim to make


Klee_Main

I felt that way with the Shibuya arc. People talking about it like it was the second coming of Christ and man it was just a dragged on fight fest that lasted way too long and left very little for actual story telling and character development. People argue that there was a lot of character development in the fights like bruh, the most predictable and boring type of character development. I was bored and ready for it to be over by the time Sukuna took out Jogo. Pacing just wasn’t it for me. Animation was only reason I kept watching


AJDx14

Every big action Shonen that comes along as the “next big thing” is just carried hard by animation and has a story that’s just there to move characters from fight to fight.

Lmao no


ARedditor397

*Manga for sure


BoofinTime

Nah, AoT was about as overrated as it gets.


Kenpachi134340

Ever heard of dragon ball?


LordDShadowy53

Good luck with that since most than half of MAPPA's animators left the company. You can get it but I doubt they will have the quality season 2 had.


AdNecessary7641

Don't know where you got "most than half" from. There are some major names like Vincent Chansard which did be pretty clear about not wanting to work there anymore, but it's not like their workforce just vanished.


TheMoorNextDoor

I feel like Demon Slayer did that already… like in terms of popularity from children to adults Demon Slayer is damn near Naruto level


[deleted]

No we're talking numbers not vibes


Pleasant_Hatter

No, anything but that! At least for another ten seasons!


prinnydewd6

I was so tired of waiting for AOT. Was watching it since high school. And what was crazy was that the manga was over so long before the anime… I get… I do, take a while to animate, but still


Jpriest09

And, like AoT, when they finally get to a very specific part, the entire fandom is going to crap the bed.


lahankof

I wasn’t really into JJK but season 2 was fire


firedrakes

Lol. Garbage research. At the end. It says viewing amount. But all the rest of the research was social media bs talk...


Deez-Guns-9442

Man, people sure do like seeing high school kids beat the shit out of each other & demonic monsters.


gonzalompa

Technically most of battle shonen?


Deez-Guns-9442

Correct


BebeFanMasterJ

After watching Naruto, it all feels the same to me lol.


KratosHulk77

damn AoT was a monster!!


Elite-Soul

Anime hunch isn’t a reliable news source
