A technique that seems like it should be overpowered, but ends up being useless because it doesn't work against the majority of things, and the things it does work on are so trivial in difficulty that you don't really need it to begin with?
Probably those instant kill spells in jrpgs.
From Season 3 onward it was nothing but filler until Season 5, which does not seem a lot given how Naruto managed to have like 4 seasons of filler and then a few sandwiched in between during Shippudden arcs BUT Naraku is the only other person aside Victor Von Doom to break the record for the most use of decoys. Not even competitive Pokemon use as many substitutes. >It was a Naraku puppet all along
I liked the show up until the arc with the discount Wolverine, afterwards I lost interest and it is a long while until the story actually progresses.
>introduce character with one kill button move early in the story >immediately backtrack and provide the antagonists with a complete counter, making the entire point of the character useless
This is actually extremely common in action manga because the author never really expects it to be successful so they don't think ahead much. Another good example of not thinking ahead is in Naruto with the Substitution Jutsu. It's completely overpowered with no real limit, and the author just had to start ignoring it.
>Turok 2 >Spend the entire game collecting parts for the nuke weapon >By the time you get it the final boss is the only thing left to fight >Final boss is immune
Nah, that goes to several UY girls, instead.
Rumiko has a bad habit of making the worst girl into the main character and then getting shocked when people flock to one of the side characters that encompasses everything she hates. Lum is one example of this in action.
I have no idea why I was so enthralled by Inuyasha either. I thought his sword was cool but even as a kid I remember the story being kinda retarded and the whole SIT BOY thing pissed me off
I could've sworn for the longest time in the English dub the characters called the garden gnomeel the shikon garden gnomeel. But when rewatching it recently, they only say sacred garden gnomeel. It's Balan Wonderland (world) for me all over again.

Blue Magic in FF games.
Why was Inuyasha so forgettable? Only the op and ed songs are good.
It was quite repetitive

>This is actually extremely common in action manga
You called?
>Take it away entirely in the sequel with no explanation as to where it went
Why did Sunrise do it?
It was a curse that died when Naraku finally died.
Yashahime seems like an okay show, but don't tell anyone you watch that you fucking gay.
Either she is a bad writer or a lazy writer.
Could also be both.
>musical illusion powers that can resolve anything
>limited only by the user being a complete airhead
Please understand, she is a femoid. Their brains are incapable of thinking about powerlevel gayry for more than twenty seconds in a day.
He never got that shit back, either. Such a fucking disappointment from a disappointing series milked to death.
>WHIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DARK LORD SAMA PLEASE SEND MORE BEES HE'S IGNORING THEM
Instant kill magic. Bosses will always be immune to it one way or another.

What the actual fuck were they thinking
a cheap trick to make you think WOAHHH THIS BOSS IS REALLY HARD NOW WHAT DO I DO
Kagome sex
When you think about it... is Kagome the original
>YJK
Would he be the original groomer then?
if anything, she groomed him.
Nah, that goes to several UY girls, instead.

>He doesn't know
She still has the beads on his neck way, way, way into into their marriage. she's a fucking freak of the worst kind
>remember how I got excited for saturday to watch inuyasha
>its a fucking bee episode
I have no idea why I was so enthralled by Inuyasha either. I thought his sword was cool but even as a kid I remember the story being kinda retarded and the whole SIT BOY thing pissed me off
I can fix her with the love of my human penis
you can't fix a mound of sand
