Triangle Anime and Manga Review: Power Progression Tiers and What's fun about OP Characters
This week Logan and Ozzy are talking about, what Logan calls, the power tiers of OP characters. Logan has categorized main characters from different manga on their way to becoming over powered characters in their universes and discusses how their power levels impact how the story for the anime progresses.
Logan and Ozzy also attempt to place different anime characters in each tier without getting attacked on the internet... we'll see how that plays out. This leads into their discussion of what story types they enjoy the most in shonen anime and what types of characters are supported by those stories.
Following up on last week's manga recommendation Logan and Ozzy discuss their thoughts on "Teppuu". Ozzy only had to read 10 chapters, but ended up reading the entire series (granted its only about 35 chapters long) if that tells our listeners anything. We discuss the characters and the MMA representation in detail and just generally gush about the series.
This week's recommended manga is "MASHLE: Muscles and Magic", which is a weekly manga currently running in shonen jump. The main character Mash, who is super strong, is forced to enter a magic academy. Since Mash cannot use magic he must find a way to succeed in the school by only using his muscles. What appears at first to be a bold rip off of One Punch Man combined with the Harry Potter Universe turns into a lively comedy and action manga with diverse characters.
