    I would definitely rate the fireforce manga atleast like an 9 or even 9.5. though, the anime is still very good despite the fan service(which is not much of a bother for me) personally everything in fireforce is the closest thing to my favorite manga/anime. The pacing,the art,the story, panelling and almost everything is top tier.
    Fire force fr needs to be more recognized

      Also i would say its grat literature on , oh god not only treligions beliefs and cult, but the existencialist philosophic shown and its great, its so great executed and gets so good , and makes sense despite being crazy, and is so well done philosophical as well.
      And about existencialism, nihilism and hope and , how to deal with in an apearent doomed conflicted world that most people dont care to fight to make better, why its still important.
      Ok its so great on a literal level. And i put the bit slow burn on its a great done mystery as well, and you gotta set up stuff and show before the other show drops, and, its still fire once benimaru comes in.

    I love the fan service, and I loved everything about this series (both manga and anime), It was tailor made for my tastes. Firefighters are rad; fire is rad; women are the greatest thing in this world, this art piece celebrates them so much; mysteries are incredible; I love the art and aesthetic (I am catholic and this absolutely pleased me); the philophical discussions were awesome and inspiring. For real, a masterpiece, 9.5.

    Fire Force is my favorite manga ever and made Ohkubo my favorite mangaka of all time, despite not being that big of a fan of Soul Eater. I know it has its flaws like some loose plot lines and mainly focusing on its male cast members, but the manga just resonated with me, it felt really personal.
    The story and art are so creative, especially in its last third and the philosophy was really interesting. Not only the parts where they focused on life and death, but also human nature itself and how we see other people like Tamaki.
    Its slow beginning is probably my least favorite part, but the mysteries and the twists it leads to are absolutely worth it.
    tldr: I never would have guessed that a battle series about fire fighters would be so thought-provoking.

    Soul Eater was my first ever anime, so I was quick to hop on Fire Force when the anime dropped. And honestly, I'd rank Fire Force above Soul Eater in many ways, even if there are some things Soul Eater did better. Honestly I've never really been bothered by Tamaki and her running gag through the series. Like I totally understand why people would have an issue with it, but it wasn't an issue for me. Arthur is my favorite character I love his silly antics and his last fight with Dragon was my favorite fight in the whole series. I'm glad to see more positive content being made on this series even after its conclusion

      I think the difference a lot of people forget to mention is it's rarely at the expense of female characters' agency in SE. Like Tsubaki and Blair are the main "fanservice characters" but Blair is having fun with it and Tsubaki isn't getting humiliated with it the way Tamaki is CONSTANTLY.
      Plus fanservice is just about the only thing the humor in Fire Force hinges on outside of "Arthur's delulu"

    The total removal of Tamaki would've done wonders for the series. I and many others dropped the fire force manga early in it's run strictly because of her. And I am so happy that I decided to give the series another go around the time the anime got announced because it ended up being one of my all time favorite manga out there. Easily eclipsing Soul Eater in scope and writing. The power system is so creative, the world building is amazing and Ohkubo's ability to draw amazing fights is rivaled only by a few artists. And he topped it off with an ending that is not only good but vastly outclasses almost every other shonen ever.

    I absolutely LOVED the way Fire Force handles their fan service! It is VERY self aware and is absurd to the point of being comedic. It's fun and light hearted, it's not over-done, and most importantly it NEVER detracts from the main story! And even when we do get the fan service scenes, they're never grotesquely over the top or anything but rather tasteful IMHO.
    I have never been able to understand why people have a problem with it and in fact, I've never heard ANYBODY talk about having an issue with the fan service outside of Twitter. But Twitter freaks have problems with literally EVERYTHING, so I truly just tend to disregard all that noise. And it's not like I'm surrounded by only just male anime weebs, there's several female anime fans I've talked to about this series, at least half a dozen of which are in my closer social circle, and none of them have voiced any complaints about the fan service when we talked about the series.
    Honestly, I truly don't believe most normal, socially well-adjusted people, male or female, would have an honest problem with the fan service of this series! There's just a VERY vocal minority of weirdos on platforms like Twitter and Reddit that make a LOT of noise about anything they can twist to find offense from about everything...

    Because Soul Eater anime didn't adapt the manga till the end, I planned to read it, but after I heard Fire Force is a prequel to it I planned to watch Fire Force before reading trough Soul Eater. But the downsides of the series you collect in the beginning were the exact problems of black clover, no interesting characters, nothing interesting or big happening, but there's to much fanservice. black clover was a huge disappointment, so now I don't how watch/read Soul Eater (while I don't think after Soul Eater Ohkubo able write a series as bad as black clover).

    @romariodesrosier1450 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Ive given the series a shot a couple years back, as I took care of the anime and manga. I even took a look at Soul Eater after doing Fire Force, kinda funny given its connection. I found both series pretty neat, and even though I lean more towards SE in regards to its Halloweeny style, FF isn't a slouch either.
    Plus for my thoughts on what Fire Force has regarding said content, I see it like this:
    I personally wasn't bothered by said fanservice, nor did Tamaki bother me either. Hell, Ive watched my fair share of animes with sexual content, and for Fire Force's case, it's no different. If anything, Im cool with its cast including her, but I can understand the sentiment. Sometimes its sucks that a certain character or series in general has something that sounds really cool but gets screwed over thanks to something the creator decides to do, or if the idea does work, but it's barely done with. Hell, I can also understand disliking the sexual kind of fanservice. However, what bothers me is less about the series itself and more about how it's being perceived in regard to it. Whether it's on those overexaggerating in regard to how much sexual content it has, or about certain scenes, even the ones in which there is a point to be made, or in regard to Tamaki in general. Hell, Ive seen those go so far as to make it sound as if its fetish content in the case of said series. It makes me question what kinda show they've been looking at. To put this in perspective, I frankly wanted Tamaki to get some confidence in herself, not just in her power, but about her self-esteem regarding that little condition she has, and the manga kinda does it for me regarding what goes on, like with Gold and even that Doppel-Assault deal. I say this because of that one scene where during that flashback with her and Shinra, he tells her that even if that little lure of hers is annoying, he feels she shouldn't banish herself. He even went so far as to point to Arthur when it comes to how confident he looks despite his delusions of being some knight king, saying she should be that confident herself. If someone like that can have such ridiculousness and yet not give a damn, why not her? Which had me thinking when it came to how some of the others have a little something about themselves that people perceived about them, whether its Shinra being seen as a Devil because of his smile or Arthur being seen as a dumbass because of his delusions of being a knight or hell, even Tamaki being seen as some harlot because of her supposed lechery, you'd think those aspects would be seen as the worst about them, and you'd be right. However, in some way, those aspects became their strength given what happened later on.
    Regarding that whole deal with Doppel-Sault, this also leads to what I mean on perceptions thanks to said Cataclysm beginning, as said doppelgangers are finally given form from them, as if it's the actual person the people see. Hell even said townspeople were pretty much getting screwed up and believing what's being said by those Doppels in general. Ive seen this controversy go down in regard to that one chapter regarding that Yoshida chick and Tatsuto; Some saying its a strawman, assuming that Ohkubo was pissed off at people for not liking his work, others say its a self-insert trying to justify said fanservice, and even if those who have agreed with it can say it's a bit preachy. Personally, I don't really see it as such from either side. I feel it's more talking about what's within the story when it comes to how the townspeople were berating Tamaki despite her trying to help against Doppel-Sault, kinda like how earlier when Shinra got berated despite him kicking away that Moon crashing down thanks to Fairie. As for Yoshida and Tatsuto, it's the whole deal about two things. The first being about how she pretty much went with the crowd despite not noticing what's going on, making it sound as if Tamaki is some sort of bad influence, just like how the townspeople were perceiving her as such given them agreeing with Assault's Doppelganger. The second is regarding the perceptions of one's aspect of themselves, as if because this one person is seen as better with a certain role, that must mean others who don't have it should take that spot, as if someone else is more deserving. I say this because let's be real, if someone has a certain aspect to themselves, some will try to assume they're either something else because of it, or act as if they think it's an issue to others that might not have it, and they should cater to them. The whole strawman deal just bugs me with how some make it sound as if the creator was pissed about those who have had their fair reasons in regard to said content, even if they didn't come out and state why they did what they did. Also, them assuming how Yoshida's meant to represent those who complained about said fanservice, given how it was like the day it was shown. That's what I mean when it comes to said perceptions, as even the story points out how there are those who go with what others say, even if they never asked if it's true or not. On a sidenote, I find it interesting how that whole spiel Assault went on referred to Eros regarding the whole "symbol of life" deal, which sounded more sensible in the official translation. I say that since Eros is the Greek God of Love, and said love leads to eroticism and eroticism leads to life, and without the middle man, life cant continue.
    Now, I understand I might be going on this long during the whole deal, but I just wanted to get this off my chest. To end it off, Im cool with the series, and regardless of what fanservice it had, I saw it through to the end.

    Fire force is one of my favorite manga because of the overall goal of the evangelist and how they have a realistic goal in wanting to end the world normally it would be generic like humans are bad and need to die but ohkubo twisted that narrative I don’t wanna say why because of spoilers but that’s one of the reasons fire force was such a memorable manga

    TLDR: Let us have our anime babes
    I honestly don’t understand people’s issue with the fan service in the show, our fan service in general. Fire force is a Shonen no? I get it if you don’t like shows like High School DxD, Sekire, or shows like those. But for decades, it’s been very apparent just how few fucks the Japanese give about American sensibilities as far as nudity and showing both the male and female figure. Ever watched Hajime no Ippo? I’ve never heard a single complaint about the show but there’s some wild shit in there lol. But because it’s male fan service no one has anything to say.
    I think it’s ok to portray your characters however you want. It’s fair if people don’t like it but it feels like people don’t like fan service because you’re not supposed to.
    To be clear, I like your video and have no problems with anything you’ve said in particular, just ranting I guess. I’ve heard people talk about how annoying fan service is in anime before (especially a shonen) and I’m like “ bro this shit is made for young boys/men who are genetically and historically horney at all times lol. And that’s actually not a bad thing it turns out. And it turns out it sells…..a lot. Idk
    I do think it’s fair to not like fan service but if you’re into shonen, I feel like it should just be expected at this point. And as long as SUPER weird shit happens then I say let it rock!

    I like tamaki, granted in the manga, you can ignore when its overdone and the anime might overdo it, but i love how he really made it an arc of her going from objectified making it her strengh,
    Which that last speech is about, if that can help her save her feriends, screw you superficial criticism, you cant shame me anymore.
    Thats a great arc, and she is never that much, plus its not like soul eater had no weird fanservice thats worse, fire forces fanservice works so good organic in.
    Also the amazing end , its such a good exploration not only about beliefs, cults and religions on such a great literally level, its also
    also so good exploring of existencialism and nihilism and hope and so good, and sadly fitting of the times currently, and great commentary on that.
    God even with a great meta moment that hits :(
    Damn soul eater had worse fanservice and, its great literature that has good worldbuilding and myster, that comes wit a bit of a slow burn, till that pays off.

    The entire last third of Fire Force is easily my favorite stretch of anything I've ever read. Like legitimately 11/10.
    T&A service is great, but even ignoring my personal feelings on it, the whole idea that fanservice automatically makes a story worse is extremely annoying on multiple levels (like the idea that a series about/heavily focused on sex/sexuality/fanservice can't possibly be/isn't allowed to be good)

    • @marocat4749

      Arthur has such an amazing fight. And the philosophical existencialism and about belief all coming together batshit chaotic yet it all makes sense with the dramatic yet hopeful yet desperate. And is impactful,
      If you ever try kubera the last god thats slow burn at the start, and not a shounen, but its really also i think better worlfdbuilding even but fire forces uis amazing,
      Also the art gets better, and its slow burn that pays off big, and its more psychological mystery drama with humor

    Suttle levels of humor you grow to enjoy specially hits hard. Amazin show overall
    (despite the drawbacks - when I suggest it to others, everyone mentions the Tamaki, even I did back in the day xd)
    p.s I personally would not mind Tamaki if she was not a Sister. That destroys my immersion completely. Despite me trying to completely ignore it.
    The church is so good thus that is why Tamaki ruins it for me, even tho someone can argue, shes "represents something" a commentary hahaha

    This reminded me to go read on where season 2 left off, but I will strictly be selectively not reading a single tamaki fan service panel out of quiet, seething, spite. Goated show (and manga, from what I’ve heard and seen), but that single character is absolutely a huge detractor and I don’t care how good or funny the manga’s meta fight giving commentary on her fan service is. Self awareness doesn’t erase those undesirable aspects lol, like how nikke players can tell you the game is fun but they’re still subhuman because that game is 80% sex sells.

  • @Silly_Billy1
    @Silly_Billy1 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The one thing I don't like about fire force (except fan service) is that as the story progresses way too many characters are introduced. I'm someone who finds it hard to memorized names (especially Japanese names) and associate them with characters and so when there are so many characters + call backs to important characters not immediately relevant makes it hard to follow the story and other character related things.
    I've only watched the anime cuz I don't feel like reading the manga but I feel that the introduction to an arc with tomaki near the end of the second season falls flat due to the fact that she's been objectified by the author so much. Why should I care about this character who's only personality trait up to that point was to accidentally get naked any way possible? Tomaki always "accidentally" being borderline sexually assaulted while the perpetrator gets away with it could be a good story arc but the fact that these actions don't influence any of tomaki's actions, decisions, or feelings towards the cast shows that she is just gooner bait. Again, why should I care about this character who's only been a part of the cast for fan service now when there are so many other more developed characters in the already bloated cast of Fire Force?
    Not to mention the fact that all of the (adult) female characters have been sexualized. While there has been some male fan service sprinkled in throughout the show, it still doesn't matter when every female character has been sexualized to a much greater extent.

    Someone actually counted and only roughly 40 of the 6,000+ pages of the manga have any kind of fan service in them. So Tamaki is really not as frequent or big of an issue as people make her out to be. Especially when she's barely in season 2 and won't be in any of seasons 3 and 4 until the very end when her character is given meaning.

It's like if you fart in front of a lot of people. super awkward but can still make people laugh. just my thoughts

    Not only does the animation take a huge hit in season 2, but the story just gets so boring and unfocused.
    It jumps around from new character to new character every episode, and none of them are as interesting as the starting cast

    Okay... I enjoyed your video, but something you said towards the start that made me need to rant.... I think I'm finally done pretending that people's issues with fan-service are valid. I know this comment wont be positively received, and that I'll sound like kind of a boomer about this, but it's gotten to the point that I can't keep my mouth shut. If you see fanservice in anime (ESPECIALLY in a SHONEN anime) and think, "Oh god. Not the tits. I cant stand it when they show lewd stuff like this to appeal to their historically and statistically male dominated audience." Then stop watching. Shonen isn't for you. If that sounds gate-keepy, its cause it is. If you get offended by lewd content in a piece of fiction, or you get mad at being shown a beautiful woman in scantily clad clothing, then you're consuming the wrong content. Move on to something else, we need to stop letting tourists and the overly sensitive dictate the course of media its leading to the collapse of the entertainment field. Just look at AAA gaming lately. Letting people who exist to spread their puritanical opinions about sex and sex-appeal in media run the show is fucking destroying whole industries that I love and its time to stop letting it happen. Rant over, sorry.
