Manga fire

Would you read my manga? A simple question that can change someone’s life. How big are your dreams? How much are you willing to do to achieve them? Passion and dreams do not fade and prevail against uncertainty and the worst of fates like a ring of fire that is able to encircle the earth. FIRE RING!

I have yet to find a review on Fire Punch that realizes the overarching theme(s) that Fujimoto meant for it to be. Instead of creating a dark story with choice slap humor bits slapped in there, he created a story that criticizes what this review is and leagues more. The surface is just that: a dark, mind-fucky story with some humor. Dig a little deeper and you find a story that encompasses Empedocles’ philosophy on Love and Strife-full fucking stride and running on nothing but circumstance. It’s almost genius. I’m not disregarding a perfectly valid review because the manga is what you say it is. If you want me to go on a full rant, just e-mail me because I feel tuis manga is worth the explanation.

Yeah that’s the best part about fire punch, it’s plot keeps changing in a realistic way that makes it feel like a real world, it’s more than just a simple revenge plot and saying that it’s not good while also saying it’s interesting is dumb because that’s why you read manga, my guess is that you just don’t like how much it went against your expectations or something

Realistic is the word furtherest from describing Fire Punch. The story has degrees of merit but narratively it’s a complete mess. I much prefer how the author refined the chaos of this manga to improve his next work which is leagues better.

I will admit that was a mistake on my part but I think it is an issue of the manga itself that it’s execution is scatterbrained. Many seem to lament that People don’t understand Fire Punch when I don’t think they understand it themselves. It very much feels like a work of Fujimoto flinging ideas at a wall and seeing what sticks. So it’s hard to tell if he has a method to his madness or if its the Ikuhara method(Aka throw random symbolism together and make the viewer connect the dots)
