The majority doesn't seem to agree with that opinion. It's one of the most popular new Shonen Jump series in years. It's heavy influences from American superhero comics are likely a big part of it finding an audience in the English-speaking world so quickly.

"Stop liking what I don't like" is all I'm hearing.

LOL this statement pretty much amounts to "i don't like something therefore it must be bad. I don't understand why people actually like the thing i hate"
Guess what mate, people have different opinions and apparently yours means jack shit considering this one of the most popular shounen jump titles in recent memory. You're in the minority, not the majority. Don't like it, then move on.

Huh. I... like the comic-book-ish covers of MHA.

The rest of the manga, too. But the covers show that the author is willing to make that extra effort.

Alright that's enough of all that nonsense. For starters diamond yes you are trolling. Going into a thread just to basically say "i don't like it so it sucks" while giving no actual opinions to back up your claim is actually trolling. At the very least it's pure bait for others. You are entitled to your opinions but you have to present them with facts and actual opinions to support them.

Calling someone a troll and giving a long post on why they are without posting on topic is also trolling in itself FrozenMoon. It also quite clearly violates rule 1 ere which is to be civil. Next time just report the post without the unneeded rude commentary. That goes for the rest of you as well. Simply use that nice little red report button and move on. Don't make a situation worse with OT color commentary. Otherwise you're just adding to the problem.

My apologies Psycho, I got out of hand there admittedly and didn't mean to troll, my frustration got the better of me. Glad to see the mods are on top of things here however.

Anyhow I'm just happy the series is doing so well.

The NY Times should have not removed that manga best-seller list. AoT season 2 could have helped put vol. 1 back on that list for several weeks.
