Why Current Generation Shonen Worse than Big 3

Back in the days when Big 3 was still the thing, they had plenty of fans but also plenty of haters.

I think often fans of one title would attack fans of the other and. Most likely it is started with Bleach fans attacking Naruto fans because they were salty that Naruto is more popular that Bleach.

Thus, came Big 3 flame wars and name calling of narutards, bleachtards and piecetards.

Then Naruto and Bleach ended so flame warriors lost anything to defend.

However they did not lost anything to hate as new shows such as FMAB, AoT, MHA, Boruto and Demon Slayer had all the flaws of the old Big 3 but few of what made them appealing in the first place.

To make matter worse for Naruto fans, its spinoff sequel, Boruto (Naruto next generation) is mcuh worse than original Naruto which contributes to overall negative view on current era battle shonen.

So not older and salty old fans keep attacking current shows as stupid and not as good as Big 3 were back in the days.

Kind of like boomers like to defend their hippy ages and worldviews from back then even if other demographics think that hippies and all their hippy greenwash are retarded.

I would say if you were not watching Naruto, Bleach or One Piece back in 2006 you will not understand.

Not to mention, old fans are now older age wise. So by now shonen and shoujou is outside their age bracket. There are for those younger than 29 (teen and young adult (YA) demographic in western terms). They are simply too silly for a full grown adult, unlike Seinen or Josei. Kind of like Teletubbies are too silly for 13+ teens.

So it is only natural for them to progress to older shows of Seinen and Josei.

Still as Millennial I would say that Big 3 is better than current generation of battle shonen, because back then sky was bluer, grass was greener and I was younger if for no other reason.
