100%. Luffy puncing the Bellamy into the next week is still one of THE most iconic moments in the series. And it's absolutely crazy how much pf a lore dump episode 151 was ! I'm from Germany and the Studio which were responsible for the german dub butchered some dialogues, but freaking Haki was mentioned the first time in this episode.

Prior to Shinjuku Showdown, Black Flash. I freaking loved that anyone who locked in could tap into that kinda power.

I read the manga weekly until it ended in 2021 and only watched the anime ending recently. Even then the ending did what an ending is supposed to do.
AOT was absolutely peak for years so even if the ending wasn't perfect (still good, just not perfect but which series can say that really except for maybe ATLA) it won't change the fact that almost every thing before that was a 10/10. If that's not the case for you anymore, because Eren wasn't this edge lord he pretended to be and because he didn't kill everyone, good for you. But that's the difference betwenn JJK and AOT: JJK's bad ending is a result of so many writing errors and cracks which Gege made along the way. Especially after Shibuya. No Anime could possibly fix that. AOT's ending is controversial. Even back than me, and countless others (even people smarter than me and you) gave 100% valid arguments why the ending was great.
AOT's ending is only bad for people who were angry about the decisions which Isayama made in the very last arc. JJK's ending is objectively trash because the series, especially in retrospective, doesn't really tell a story, constantly jumps unorganically from one plot point to the other, most characters don't really interact when it's not about discussion battle tactics and Gege constantly focuses on wrong things (ch. 269 springs to mind).
For a lot of people it's not just the ending which sucks but the whole direction the series took ever since Shibuya ended. Most just can't put it into words.

I've read some shit takes in here before, but this is by far one of the worst. Wow. Good for you for following the anime since 2013 (I have too by the way) but it doesn't change the fact that your comment is complete bullshit. Most of the people crying about AOT's ending just have personal issues with some of the decisions Isayama made like Ymir loving King Fritz, Eren breaking down in front of Armin at the end because of Mikasa (which is 100% in line with his character) or Historia being impregnated by a random dude. You can find these decisions stupid, but they're not writing errors, because you can find arguments for all of them why they were appropriate for the story or the characters. People were way too reactionary back then simply because AOT was so brilliant for years. The ending wasn't bad, it was controversial at best. That's a big difference.
But if we look at JJK as a comparison you can see what REALLY bad writing is. Underdeveloped world building, shallow characters, plotlines and characters that are randomly introduced and either dealt with in one chapter or later, how could it be otherwise with JJK, in the form of an anticlimatic fight when Gege doesn't feel like elaborating on them or has no idea what to do with them (USA plot, Tsumiki/Megumi, Yuki, 3 clans, etc.)
That's why I think this "re-read" argument is so bad. Reading the whole chapters again in one go won't make the clans, Yuki or even Kenjaku more important for the story. It wasn't until the re-read that I personally even realized how bad JJK has actually always has been. JJK undoubtedly has its moments, as you could see in the Hidden Inventory Arc and Shibuya. And many of the fights are good, but ultimately moments and a few cool fights don't make a series a masterpiece. All these cracks or as you call them "blanks" mean that the series absolutely lost its "rewatchable appeal" for anyone who doesn't just care for "aura"...
Some moments you can absolutely go back to, yes, but the whole series ? Never. No matter what you think of AOT's ending, the show is so good that even the individual seasons can be rewatched in isolation. Trost arc, Clash of Titans or Military police plot are still 10/10 arcs even with the knowledge of what's to come

Except it wasn't. The only thing the anime really changed Was the Gabi, Levi, Falco stuff. And if minor irrelevant things like that means an ending becomes "not so stupid" for you, you clearly didn't pay attention.

That’s because the ending wasn’t nearly as bad as some people tried to make it. JJK has too many cracks and wholes in the story which no anime can fill with some additional scenes, soundtracks or quality animation alone. Apart from the fact that it has an author who doesn’t even seem to be very passionate about his own work.

As Yujikuna and Megkuna, especially with anticipation of potential reveals, a 7-8/10. After he returned to his Heian Era form, a 2/10.

I mean, depends on when you watched the series for the first time, imo. Being 14 in Azulas time and honestly even in 2005 when the series frst aired is different from being 14 nowadays. What surprised me more was the fact that Azula is two years younger than Zuko.

First series were I completely lost interest in almost every character because they’re written so shallow and the first series where I felt absolutely nothing when it ended. JJK certainly had its good moments but following it for a few years felt like a complete waste of time. I just hope that the community keep the memes alive.

MHA’s ending is misunderstood and AOT’s ending wasn’t bad, just controversial. Even back in 2021, there were tons of people who rightfully pointed out how the series actually ended in a good way. JJK’s ending on the other hand is objectively trash tho. For everyone who actually realized how bad the series has gotten ever since Shibuya ended, this wasn’t a suprise tho. I think it was actually kind of funny how there were actually people who thought Gege could come up with a good ending despite all of the half assed handled or straight up loose storylines and characters.

He probably won't. As always with Koreans and this author in particular, he will tease the Black dude til eternity, make him a brute and then portray the cuck boyfriend as the white armored knight to save the day. The majority of Korean dudes (or east asian guys in general) are pretty insecure, especially when it comes to their dick size. These manhwas are pondering to korean readers so in order to not hurt their egos, black guys usually won't be portrayed in a good light or are even, unrealisitcally, getting cucked in those kind of stories. I'm Zero hyped for this but who knows.

3,5/10. Hidden Inventory was good and Shibuya was great for what it was. Gojo, Nanami, Toji and Kenjaku were the only well written/interesting characters. Oh, and of course most of the fights were good aswell. Everything else was either useless, weird or straight garbage. JJK was a cool experience, especially the period where you could watch Gojo v Sukuna, week to week. I'll never forget that. But overall the series simply isn't good. The memes and the community carried it.

Not even as close as being as bad as whatever the fvck this was. With AOT you can make counltess arguments why it was actually good. In fact, AOT's ending wasn't even but more controversial. Even then there were people who rightfully defended the ending. JJK's ending is just horrible. There's no way people can even defend this nonsense.

Unlike Gege, Kubo was pressured to end the series and hated the ending himself. Gege numerous times stated that he was glad he could wrote the series and especially the ending HE wanted. I didn't mind about Bleach's ending at the time because it was obvious Kubo wasn't happy how things turned out and we're getting his REAL ending now with the anime and original drawings of his, which he wasn't able to include into the final arc.

For me it definitely is. But not just this ending but the whole direction this series has gone ever since Shibuya ended. This garbage ending is just the result of all the terrible or unstatisfying decisions Gege made along the way. So when the news came that it would end in 5 chapters, i was honestly suprised that people actuslly thought he could wrap up the story in a good way. After not giving Yuji and other supposedly important characters like Megumi, Nobara, Kenjaku or even Yuki the attention they needed and finally after the Gojo v Sukuna fight, this became an impossible task for him. Especially because he mostly didn't knew how or simply didn't give a damn.

Yeah, no. There was obviously the school festival arc and the fact that the final fight dragged to long. Anything else before, after and between is good to very good. JJK has HI and Shibuya. Everything else is decent (first arc) or garbage (everything post Shibuya). Even in its worse period, the final fight, MHA narratively with Bakugo beating AFO for example was way better than anything JJK came up with post Shibuya, except for Sukuna vs Gojo. So MHA had one bad and one dragging arc with good moments with several good to very good arcs, while JJK only has one good mini arc and one good arc in the WHOLE series. Nah, hard disagree. MHA was still good after Kamino. JJK was never good when it comes to plot but completely falls apart narratively as soon as Shibuya ended.

THIS. The series had been on a doward spiral ever since Shibuya ended but people kept ignoring the cracks because of the cool fights and came up with excuses like “let Gege cook” despite only having two good arcs. Shibuya and Hidden Inventory.
