it's honestly trash. the only reason I've continued to read it is that I already started t...

Basically, you call someone else's work trash and keep reading it?

First of all, I don't know why people like disrespectful comments like that and second of all, if you don't like it, have some arguments. It being incredibly repetitive? I never saw the same trap or trick being used more than twice. Predictable? Well, duh, you're just sharp. Mind numbing? Why the frick are you reading then? Are you a masochist?

I would like to see you making a manga, publicizing it, and reading at the comments of your blood sweat and tears.
I'll be there to call your work cliché and trash. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

Do we really have to explain why we don't like a manga ? Even though everyone knows and notices why it can be called trashy ? Also, everyone fits for a profession, some of us might be really good at creating mangas while some of us might just be able to enjoy them or dislike them if they're bad. The author either chose the wrong profession or lacks good ideas and creativity... the author doesn't only write for himself or herself, but also has to write, knowing what the readers would expect to see and like. That's why we have the right to call a manga trashy just as we have the right to call it amazing because that's our opinion and since the author published it, he or she has to face the comments and critics if it's bad, in order to improve and to match a general taste.

Okay sir cap a lot

Yes, I will call someone's work trash and continue to read it because I like to be fair so I'm gonna finish it and either stand strong in my previous opinion of it being trash or admit I was wrong because I understand that artists can grow and their style can change whilst they are creating their piece and they start to come into their own.

Ain't no shame in my game.

People like those types of comments because they know where it's coming from. They know it's not a place of malicious intent and it's from a place of frustration because they saw the potential that the piece had and watched as the life was sucked out of it because that's the reason most of us criticizing it started it. It had a good premise but a disappointing followup.

Normally I don't use the word trash to criticise other people's work but I felt it was justified here because I was incredibly disappointed.

As a creative, you can expect blatant hate because that's inevitable or constructive criticism. Which is why I feel that as a creative you should be your biggest critic and surround yourself with people who'll be honest with you and give you tips on how to improve your work so you can vet your work before you release it so you can be self-assured enough to disregard the blatant hate and bias and make notes of the constructive criticism.

In this case, what I said was constructive criticism albeit a bit harsh.

You however and your offer to be there to critic my work ould fall into the former of blatant hate because you've already formed an opinion on a person's work that you know nothing about because you don't like their opinion.


Also, just like with every other profession you have to know your limitations and capabilities. Why can't I criticize someone's work? Every other profession experiences criticism but is it that somehow all creatives should be exempt from it? I understand as a creative person myself that you're sensitive about your work but at the same time, I understand that if I'm just following a trend and putting out subpar work I am going to be harshly criticized because if all I'm doing is regurgitating everything they've seen before and adding nothing new or anything of substance then it's going to get irritating because to them it's going to come off as this person is just a leech. I've read plenty of stories built upon cliches or current trends and loved quite a few of them because the creator made it their own and you could see the amount of thought and effort they put into creating it. I don't see that with this story I see a use of shock value and using what's currently popular to launch themselves and make a cash grab. While there is nothing wrong with wanting to make money for your work and build a following when that's your sole purpose it shows in your work. There's no depth and most things are surface level with repetitive cycles throughout trying to prolong the inevitable which is that all stories must come to an end. Now I'm not saying that that's the case for this creator because I don't know what their intent was behind creating this but the way this manga is written isn't exactly screaming i put effort, blood sweat and tears into creating this piece.

Thank you

You see where I'm coming from. You read to experience a new world or immerse yourself in something new so it elicits all types of reactions from you, the good, the bad and the ugly.

So you're going to react/respond or provide criticism based off the feelings it provoked from you

and yes at this moment I still maintain the thought process that it is a shit parade

I completely agree, and your explanation was way better and clearer than mine lol
