Eh, I honestly don't like how Champ and Enshin went down so early.

They should have been expanded on. Enshin was a pirate so they could have made some kind of a rivarly between him and Wave since Wave was from the navy which has been fighting pirates for years so author could have made background connections between Enshin and Wave. Enshin could have also been set up as the one who kills Leone or at least give him some interaction with her considering he is a misogynistic rapist while Leone doesn't like to see women being abused by men. Not to mention that her looks would definitely interest Enshin.

Champ should have also been kept around for longer and then taken down in some flashy final battle against him; in like a circus location or something like that. Considering he is a clown.

I mean, I get why they got killed so soon since they were rapists and seeing them killed gives some kind of a feeling of satisfaction to a fan who's viewing their charaters in a bad way based off on their morality, but still... I just don't like how the author missed the oppurtunities to make them more interesting.​

Yes he is
Also gay and pedo

Someone's words reflects one's opinions and mental state.

Thing is; They all shoulda been expanded on. Something more, they were from different parts of the world FFS. So many different and interesting quirks coulda been added in with cultural differences. Hell, the holy town has it's own distinctive culture from the rest of the Empire, yet other nations have very close ones?

Manga is just new though, the universe can still get expanded. Manga is like 50 chapters with 40 pages a month. It is like a 110-130 paged weekly manga which can be considered new.

Actually, quirks and small details are what I like about characters the most. They make them feel more alive, natural. Everything else can just be archetypal :|

But if everyone are like that then they would be 2D and get boring...Just me though.

Relationships that actually make battles more interesting is something that is lacking. Aside from a few like Seryuu and Mine; It's not all too tense all the time. They battle and have a duty to do. I appreciate that, it's realistic. I am sure not every knight or private in the army in the past had any recollection of who his opponents were. But, for a story we do need these emotional and tension gitted points.

WH could of been expanded more on their past, and dragged out. Honestly, despite the past between Champ and Ran. I felt little during their exchange. If it were to be dragged out over at the bare minimum a few more chapters, I probably would of liked it. But things like this just don't get savored.

Seeing WH and the Jaegers compete against each other for the favor of the Emperor and Honest would of been much better and made for their inevitable show down all the greater. WH has very little connections to NR, so it's only fitting their rivals would be the ones to take them down. You know, the guys they've mainly been egging on the entire time.

Instead most of them are killed before we even get a full glimpse at their character, and only the main points of their being. Enshin and Cosmina's relationship was sorta neat to me, in all honesty. And it's a shame we didn't get to see more of it.

@Caterpie: New or not, there's no reason to rush things like this. Especially when it seems like within a year or two it may wrap up unless other outside forces appear. With the Revolutionary army on the move, and the capital in chaos.

I'm just saying, the author does have a bad habit of moving too quickly. At least for my tastes. He makes very interesting characters, but never let's us see more of them.

 

[Stark]

Anyone up for MC hunger games?

What is that?

 

[awesomeseimei]

I actually agree about Enshin.

As for Champ, well. Maybe just to see what his his other orbs do; I didn't find him interesting enough tbh.

I wonder if the author also has those editor and deadline issues. I remember FMA's mangaka saying that she couldn't show everything she wanted due to editors, deadlines and stuff.

 

[Conspirator.]

Manga's characters are more in "cool" department, rather than their depth almost all have badass moments and likable quirks and different attitudes. They are not bad, but they are not very good either. Most development comes when they are about to die anyway.

Half of the WH were Syura copycats with little tweaks. No surprise 3 of them get wasted in a night with Cosmina barely surviving.

Orochimaru is not pathetic U_U

@bold
That's how it is with most manga, but I think the key is not so much the quality of the characters(although that is important) but how they work together. Let's say you have 10 slightly above average characters, but they work well as a unit(story wise) the manga will be good to read. In that regard, I think AgK is good, although some of the fights could have been made where the 2 parties had more relevance to each other.(like how someone mentioned Enshin and Wave's history)

 

[Optimistic]

WH is by far the worst group 2 died with nothing to offer other than rape.

Izou is my last hope.

like really 2 members dying in one go come the fck on.

I agree with this

Well, I have a few ways of liking fictional characters. And to be honest, I rarely can actually appreciate the way they are developed since it is archetypal in most cases (my pattern recognition is annoyingly good). So that's why, most of the time, I just evaluate the "feel" a character gives me, like how I listen to music - it might be absolutely nothing worthy in terms of technique, lyrics etc, but I will simply enjoy it. Same with characters - a little something to them is enough for me, and I can't always tell what it is, exactly.

On the other hand, I can appreciate how "cool", "badass" or interesting a character or what they do is, but that won't necessarily mean that they will become characters that I love.

 

[Shura]

Well, while I to blame the author to a point for this, I also blame the fact that this isn't a weekly manga. Expanding upon every character like that and giving them development, multiple chapters of focus and such things would just take a ridiculous amount of time for a monthly manga and the plot would barely move anywhere. It would have been a whole different story if it were a weekly manga. This is pretty much the biggest problem I have with monthly manga.​

As for Champ, well. Maybe just to see what his his other orbs do; I didn't find him interesting enough tbh.

Champ could have been expanded on and made into quite the interesting guy; despite his disturbing paraphilia. Author could have expanded on what made Champ what he is and he could have made the interactions between him and Run more intense than it was. The way he went down was kinda lame for me to be honest. His whole character has been portrayed as a giant pedophilic mass murderer who dresses up as a clown. When you view it like that, his character was actually quite terrifying. I believe he should have went down in a much more flashier way such as after a large battle in a circus like location since he is, after-all, a clown. I mean, imagine a scenario where they had to take him down in a large circus where he has been torturing children and such things. Would have been way more interesting and dark, in my opinion.

I mean, I still like Enshin and Champ, but they had way too much potential to just die like that.​

 

[Optimistic]

i didn't even know Enshin was a pirate, he is forgettable i had to ask who Enshin was.

Like seriously if he was a pirate the author could've played with that bit for a while, then maybe when he became an outlaw or some shit like that he encounters Syura who was travelling and slowly became the asshat he was now.

such a shame damn you red eyed robot.

 

[Dãrth1]

Wave is much more pirate than Enshin

@Bold: I doubt anything "made" him what he is - I actually prefer it when characters are not given backstories explaining why they are twisted; this way, Champ really is nice horror material and absolutely not someone who can be sympathized with. See Kimblee for example - he is just twisted, no backstories, and he is one of my all-time favorite characters.

I myself have a personality disorder despite my life being nothing special. It's genetic. It's not severe enough for me to go on murder sprees but it is there and has always been, it just got more obvious when I became an adult.

To those who say Ran and Champ story didn't make enough impact - indeed. But dragging it for several chapters would be a waste in this manga (I do agree with people who say that pacing is a tad too fast). I mean, Ran wasn't important enough and I think that little flashback that we got was enough for his backstory. The only thing that I would have added would be his mental breakdown which caused him to become so focused on revenge (in his case it is actually appropriate).

That's when "pleasing everyone" comes to play. People enjoy very different things and focusing one means sacrificing another. Even making characters just "interesting" is much more than many could. I am all for developed characters but having open endings with unexplored parts to them makes them more thought provoking. That's why i like something like KnB, characters (that i like) are both developed and also in a state i want to see more of them, and having ending in such state is not bothersome.

I agree for the most part desptie all i said, characters are not deep enough. "I want to see more of them" is what people can say for AgK characters and that's what make people read further. People can read a manga just because a characters' moments even though that character is not around for like 100 chapters.

They are all head canon, maybe things author did not even realise himself.
For ex for Naruto fandom SasuHina is a big shipping but they have 0 interaction, while its fandom can list tons of reasons why they should be more interacting and relevant to each other. Or i think Gai and Neji had common points and could interact more but obviously that's not what author ever thought between all the things.

You seem more like the type who says "i dunno i like the guy/girl" when it comes to characters.

 

[awesomeseimei]

You seem more like the type who says "i dunno i like the guy/girl" when it comes to characters.

Well there are some features that I tend to like in my faves (like determination/strong ideals that they stay true to, self-control, some arrogance/pride/dark side, certain style or manners etc), but for the most part, yup.

 

[Dãrth1]

Meh, I like the characters because of backstory etc
