I prefer everymen who get superpowers they never asked for and go completely off the deep end.

[Zangi]

I prefer everymen who stay everymen. Not gaining superpowers or some shit.

I prefer everymen who get superpowers they never asked for and go completely off the deep end.

I'm for either one of these options.

Agreed. Although for the former, 'History's strongest disciple Kenichi' is apparently great.

Kenichi isn't an everyman he is the other direction

Superman ------ Everyman ------- Loser

He is in the loser category... except... not really

Akagi, Kaiji and Legendary Gambler Tetsuya have a grand total of three girls in them. No pedo shit in those, because all the characters are men. >.>

On everymen becoming über powerful, I'm fine with it as long as they don't bitch about having amazing powers or act like they don't have them or try to shirk responsibility. One-punch man is a good example of regular guy earns great powers through sheer will and then destroys bad guys with them. Makes me happy to see a superhero who takes full freaking advantage of his abilities!

Just started Kaiji.
Art style is taking some getting used to.
But goddamn do I love the storyline.

I am not sure I he is the best example as a big part of his character eventually becomes that he becomes incredibly bored with his powers and is hoping for some enemy that won't just die in one hit.

Unlike how a real person would act... where they would dread the very idea of their incredibly safe powers failing on them... and the idea of constantly killing people for the rest of their lives, miiight get to them.

He literally is an everyman who just becomes a superman as soon as he has powers.

It is kind of hard to have a character remain an everyman with powers.

Does flying count as a power? After all, it's simply the inability to hit the ground.

Okay.. But I said I LIKE everyman-supermen who take well to their powers rather than being a weenie about it. I hate everymen who are wusses even though they have awesome powers.

I don't want him to stay an Everyman!

And actually one punch man is extremely powerful but at the same time has a hard time feeding himself, and everyone treats him like crap because they think he's a fraud. He's also a boring person when you take away his idealist brand of willpower and hilarious backstory. A lot of his battles happen while he's buying green groceries or because the bad guys have trashed his favorite store. :p

I like the Lelouch model, where the character immediately decides to use their powers to fulfill all their personal and political goals.

Just started Kaiji.
Art style is taking some getting used to.
But goddamn do I love the storyline.

I think the major strength of Kaiji is the tension.  It's genuinely unclear how each arc (and even the series as a whole) will end.

Yep. I love it.

Also I didn't mind the art style at all. New style is refreshing style.

Gotta say in the first arc:

Spoiler: The Boat of hope (click to show/hide)

I thought 'Mr X' with the three scissors was Fuuka, the cheat.

What's the word for when a storyline is less twisted than you're assuming?

Okay, whoever told me that Kill la Kill's males get scimpy clothing as well is a liar. I am at episode 10 and all the 3 star uniforms have been fully covering so far.

[Darvi]

That's like reading "John Dies at the End" and complaining that John hasn't died yet.

Now I'm not saying it's not gonna happen until the end, but it's gonna take a while. Like, episode 14.
