that's him in a nutshell. constant focus on the main of the main cast but it gets worse because there's a static character development. none of the characters have drastically or slowly changed. the only thing that happens is thye get 'cooler' attacks and people are bad then good. and then theres gerard. we all know how awful that character(s) is. also fairy tail constantly has the premise of what could be a good arc but somehow the author just forgets what he did the previous chapters and that all just goes to shit. that and the dumb fanservice holy shit i dont even want to mention how obvious and ridiculous he goes about that.
It's nice to see new attacks but the lack of character development is frustrating. My gf pointed out that I never had actual character development in my own series and now i'm seriously trying to correct that, cause when I first started writing it I thought "all this needs is fighting and explotions with weird powers" than I realised that wait people like storytelling more than anything else. So now i've been trying to make my story make more sense. I make it up as I go along but i'm hoping to turn out as a: Fist of the North Star where it doesn't seem to be made up and not a: Bleach where it's obvious that it's being made up along the way. (No where in either of these sentances have I said that i'll have my art be as awesome as FotNS just making this statement clear just incase someone calls me out)
