    I’m really not sure if I want to watch fairy tail 100 year quest or not. I liked fairy tail and reading the manga for 100 year quest, but I kinda feel it will become mostly fan service shots. Even the manga is basically fan service with lots “sexy girl” panels. Which is sad, as I like the idea of the story.

    Well at least two or three episodes won’t hurt I guess.

      It feels so hard to stay away from anime like that these days. I honestly feel like the majority of modern anime would be better if it didn’t have any female characters in it at all.

        It’s always been like that, but I don’t think the solution is to remove all women from anime…

        Go watch Frieren and see what a good anime that uses women as actual characters looks like

        While there are some anime where it could be true there’s also lots of anime where it isn’t.

        Also world without women in the story would feel weird. It needs a balance and good written characters. I won’t mind sexy girl fan service when it fits the anime / story.

          I’m talking about the anime where the girls don’t provide anything else, it’s usually more an issue for shounen anime than anything, but slice of life often has this trouble too.

          I’m also not saying all anime. But there’s a disturbing amount of anime that doesn’t have female characters, just boobs and asses that want to marry the Mc or call him a pervert.

          I wouldn’t remove the female characters from like Inuyasha or Rurouni Kenshin, but i would from Mashle magic and muscle because… the one female character does nothing in the whole show lol.

    I happened across the Kaiju No. 8 manga two years ago. While it’s not a never-seen-before concept, it kept me engaged until the last published issue (at the time). Definitely going to check that one out.

      Long shounen action series tend to live or die on character arcs and the quality of the fight scenes. I don’t recall Fairy Tail’s fight scenes as being exceptional for the genre, so if the characters didn’t grab you fairly early, then it wasn’t the show for you. 🤷

    whooooooooooooooo

    Slime is one of my favorite isekai. Even with all the genocide it’s just too wholesome.
