>>245043173Just the fact that you keep bringing up actual literature twice now in the thread to compare with fucking comic books while failing to provide any equivalent counter examples to the post you're seething about proves just how weak your position is to begin with and that you're just plain stupid. Manga is pulp fiction just like all comic books and Dragon Ball, while not exceptionally well written, is the yardstick to which every battle manga holds themselves up to then, now and forever after. Every battle manga is directly or indirectly influenced by Dragon Ball including FMA, and DB's influence can be felt even outside of animanga. It's the biggest cultural phenomenon the industry has ever had and will ever had since KNY was just a passing fad and will influence nothing and won't be remembered unlike DB.
Ok, so Japan's first actual novel was written by a woman but that's only the case for Japan. Most of the Western canon is made up of writings almost exclusively by men to the point where an actual feminist made a book seething about it. All 4 of China's great classical novels were authored by men and their influence reaches even Japan, but can Genji Monogatari say the same?
LOL at you for thinking Harry Potter is a good example for your retarded argument. HP is the One Piece of literature. It's sold the most in its medium, but it's influence is hardly felt. HP kickstarted the YA craze of the 00s that all but died out in the mid 2010s. LOTR, which directly inspired HP given that Voldemort = Sauron/Hitler or the scar that functions like The Eye of Sauron, the Invisibility Cloak/The Ring and so on, is far more of a cultural phenomenon that has had lasting impact on everything from High School reading curriculums, tabletop RPGs which in turn made video game RPGs possible and all fantasy as we know it is either directly or indirectly influenced by Tolkien. Orcs were invented by him and the pop culture image we have of elves as noble, fairskinned people with pointy ears is from LOTR even if Tolkien didn't invent them.
Weebs of /a/ are all self loathing loser men who desperately want to think that Japanese women (and only Jap women) are the ubermenschen so you can keep the illusion that your own women aren't rejecting you for you so you're not at fault but they're just as inferior as any other group of women because that's human biology. It's pretty telling that no one else managed to call out your ridiculous fallacies before me and it's why I hate spending time here because most of you are pathetic and stupid like that.
