look. i love denji from csm. he's my favorite shonen protagonist. HOWEVER rudo is quickly climbing the ranks and might just end up taking that spot. the specific flavor of his rage is so refreshingly honest and not at all off-putting, which is how teenage boy anger can feel to me a lot of the time. maybe it's bc i know a woman is writing him (and she's even said that he is her self-insert!!) but idk. i just adore him

decided to do yet another reread (i didn't note the other one but this is my second) and it's crazy how every time i come back to this story i enjoy it more and more. the art, the characters, the humor mixed with VERY brutal themes and violence, the overall ethos, it's all 10/10 for me even if i can objectively acknowledge that it isn't a perfectly crafted story. the messiness is part of the charm

one thing about shonen is it WILL find a male child to psychologically torment for years
