JP copy CN's shitty timeskip+revenge (expulsed from parties)
CN copy animestyle in a bad way (manhuas colorful hair anime hair)
KR love to use CN over-exaggeration (sperm lightning eye x100, even the random bandit leader can have one and look like a demonlord ffs)

Heck.

In the fact. Its not a bad thing by itself.
BUT PLEASE FOR FFS.
CAN THEY AT LEAST HAVE THE SKILLS BACKING IT UP !?


JPs fking sucks are switching pov (especially taking too long in one side often) (and bc they beta-like without testosterones that love NTRs, they cant write a satisfying revenge most of the time)

CN. One word "manhuas"

KR. I want to --- seeing so much drama or trying to be edgy = cringe

Look at Honkai Star Rail

Not trying to be mean by saying that, and warning it risk breaking immersion for some.
But look at the characters !

If you are knowledgeable/have seen lot of anime history.
You can see that any button, any hairstyle, all cloth part, EVEN THE CHOICES OF SHOES AND SOCKS
are done after the thinking, analyzing of what works and what DOESNT in anime history.

Same with Hololive.
Look at Gen0
Look at nowadays gen.
It shows that people know what WORKS, and what DOESNT.

But its also why it make speechless to see some authors being clueless to that.
Because it feels like they are just out of a goddamn rock/cave that never saw outside for 10years.

And yes, maybe MULTIPLE people work together for chara design, or MV
but its not an excuse to be clueless.

Heck
to give a big bang example : Kafka mv

I could enumerate 1 by 1 the dozens of factors that show that every second, every movement, every sound of it
is meticulously created, to turn into this masterpiece of what it is.
The MV was done after ton of analyzing and thinking of : WHAT WORKS and WHAT DOESNT

Look, I know that if writers had the skills for it, they probably would have a big job, joined anime studio/company or make it big already.
And that HSR/Genshin has lot of factors for its success, and ton of people, and money backing it up.


But it would be nice if CN/KR/JP writers had like 0.00001% of the same skills as them.
And stopped writing slops nonstop copying other slops.
-but sadly its what sell

Even long ago, they already knew to "copy" what works.

(Left running > Running to the right, lol, yes its funny but somehow its true xD)
(ps : after thinking on it of the reason in the past, its like due to reading style)

Here is my two cent.

You putting KR > CN in wuxianxia felt so sacrilegious.

It is true though, because ever since Dragon Tiger Gate, all manhuas that featured wuxianxia is mind numbingly bad, both story and art style while manhwas like the Northern *something* really want to make me ask why CN had fell off.

Yes. I truly dont want to see it happen but its what is happening.


The worse is that they are self-hurting themselves by adapting the slop fastfood
but the good ones are ignored or badly done.

You got the giga famous manwha Estate Develop (i kid you not, its famous like naruto face)
while HistoryStrongestHusband, is misunderstood as shoujo. Despite a 2.0 more badass series.
and AXED translation.

Its like the indie game

ZERO SIEVERT
you got bunch of coverage for indies youtubers, a bunch of mods (not a lot but still)

meanwhile you got
NIGHT RAIDER
(better game/indie chinese)
but 0 coverage. 0 mods. 0 youtubers focusing on it. (some did 1 video)
DESPITE A 2.0 better game.

Bc no publicity, crap cover, generic title, not using early access meta tactic.
