Multi billion dollar industry that pumps out expansive open worlds with interesting power systems

ZERO (0) good shounen videogames, they're all shitty arena fighters

Why?

most of the anime games went to mobile

because japs literally cannot make games

One Piece of crap

wan pisu wa cool desu

Because Bandai Namco knows you'll buy the anime sloppa no matter what

Whitebeard is still the coolest and most GAR character in fiction. Not even just manga and anime, in all of fiction.

interesting power systems

YOU KILLED MUH FRIENDS UHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMM IT'S OVER 10 GORILLION POWERLEVELLLLLL

You can only do so much with shonen animes, especially the ones that are still going.
Like, how do you even make an open world game for Naruto after they've completely fucked up the entire worldbuilding in Shippuden?

If a company bothered to make an immersive naruto based open world with the villages, the missions, the exploration, seeing every players in the big village, jutsus, tracking nukenins players, it could have the potential to be one of the biggest game of all time
Sadly nobody cares enough to do it

I don't understand why Shueisha hasn't funded Capcom or ArcSys to make a PROPER 2D fighter of their Jump characters. fuck Namco and their shitty attempts with arena fighters, embrace traditional.

a PROPER 2D fighter of their Jump characters

Build your ideal roster

How come we never had other big 3 shonen contenders?
Every since Naruto and Bleach ended all we get is FoTM shit like Demon Slayer and Jujutsu Kaisen

I made multiple tier lists over time by ultimately it comes down to their main manga series, mixing iconic classics and modern hits. I'd go the route of Jump Super/Ultimate Stars with having non-playable assists in the game too.

One piece but kenshi would sell a billion

animators refusing to be slaves with 0 pay to some boomer who gets all the praise for the hard work anyway

Japanese population is continually decreasing especially in the shounen demographic so there will never be a cultural phenomenon like the big 3 were

Fuck off, Whitebeard is a hackfraud/coward.

I still can't find any character as manly and cool as Whitebeard.

Kiseki/Trails is basically shonen

I still can't find any character as manly and cool as Whitebeard.

Allow me to help to you.

Allow me to help you

I need to sleep.

There's been a few if I'm gonna be honest even if they're shit.

My Faggot Academia

that one guy with no magic that uses a sword in a world where everyone got magic

And uh... probably a few more I can't even care to remember.

Anime is one of the few industries creatively that I could see AI being a true boon that could see the increase in quality on average, but ONLY if it’s used as a tool for the overworked and underpaid talent. What we will most likely get in reality is what you described tho.

How would you make a good one piece game?

Nami and Robin are topless

That’s all I got.

I hate normies

Because the animation industry has partially changed. Gone are the days of a perpetual show with shit animation budget, just churning out an episode every week including fillers. Instead animation studios create seasons, probably partially to hedge their bets, and partially because they increase their quality.
Ofc there used to always be anime that worked like this as well, tons of it, but really only Toei is still doing it atm.

Additionally the manga industry is changing. I read a lot of new Jump manga, and there's a couple of big changes:
* cancellation of series seems far rougher with how many people are trying to create manga, so a lot of the plot has to drastically speed up, allowing little breathing room. It would be almost impossible to launch something like One Piece in this era.
* popular franchises focus way more on women than before, even shonen jump has a large female reader bass and they're the biggest consoomers
* the newer generation is built on even more derivative shit: instead of a dragon ball ripoff with some new ideas we get a ripoff of a ripoff of dragon ball

I do think that there are some series that came close to the big 3, like Toriko, Reborn, MHA and JJK. But most of them dropped the ball with poor planning (though let's be clear, Bleach and Naruto also had poor planning and a mess of a plot)

you can fight dragons in this game
see the dragons drawn by ***
no thanks

any smart jap comic fans dropped the medium

That's the thing though you have these manga worlds that would be incredible to explore but never get good games. At least Xenoverse was like how cool would it be to create your own Dragon ball OC. Shobi strike is sadly the closest you'll ever get to that Naruto game. We're unfortunately gonna be stuck with arena fighters and gacha games because those are the money makers.

idk, some shit. add Light, Itachi, Ulquiorra, Kenpachi, and Jiren as assists.

Retarded otaku buy minimal effort slop so they have no financial incentive to improve. It’s like asking why CoD never gets better despite more than a decade of mediocre titles.

Gone are the days of a perpetual show with shit animation budget, just churning out an episode every week including fillers

This is the death blow for any new series trying to be iconic.
The shitty seasonal model means that it's just outright impossible to have those big syndicated shows with 9999 episodes like DBZ, Bleach and One Piece. Remember how many reruns DBZ had in it's day? Multiple generations grew up with the show due to the sheer amount of content it had, and you better believe it was always airing.
The ladder has basically been pulled up. Hope you can tell a story and flesh out a world in 12 episodes!

Untitled open world Avatar RPG

Edens Zero

Kingdom: Hadou

The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin

Proper adaptations are coming back, maybe.

Battle shounen is normalfag shit retard

We need this rn

Like it or not you had MHA, JJK and CSM.

because arena fighters make a lot of money and easily bankable, hence why games like Gundam Evolution got shuttered because Bandai aren't able to handle anything more than another arenaslop anime game
Orochimaru is best girl/man and anyone who says different is objectively wrong.

Yup, and it's very noticeable how extremely fast some of the newer Jump series go: the main bad guy is usually introduced in the first 10-20 chapter, while with for example One Piece, Naruto, Bleach and DBZ the beginning is more monster of the week, and the final villain isn't introduced until years into the story.
One of the new-ish series that I'm reading is Ultimate exorcist. I think it may have gotten close to cancellation, because after like 20-30 chapters it felt like it was getting ready for its final arc, and they're fighting against all of the Demon Kings atm. Bizarre.

I think there are still quite a lot of good newer manga series, but it's hard for them to get broader appeal (especially in the west, which is more anime focused than manga focused) without the backing of the anime industry.

12 episodes is enough, the series with 9999 episodes usually had the same content density just drawn out and interspersed with filler

The issue is that the follow-up on those twelve episodes is up in the air, takes too long, and usually results in shit like the Promised Neverland crunch

12 episodes is enough, the series with 9999 episodes usually had the same content density just drawn out and interspersed with filler

But that is exactly what made them such phenomenon: for years people were talking about it and watching it every week. Was it unwatchable garbage with bad fillers and horrible pacing once they caught up? Yes, but most consumers don't particularly have a high bar

Yaiba: Samurai Legend is airing now.

Anyone else jumping in?

All retarded and wrong.
The actual reason is that the "big three" was a specifically western event where, in the wake of the successful airings of Dragon Ball Z, Cowboy Bebop, Gundam Wing, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Pokemon, anime got big in the west.
At the same time as that, series similar to the most popular of the bunch started releasing in the West- Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece.

That's it. People saw the newest thing, got onto them when they were already fairly deep into their stories (when they got popular in the west, Naruto's manga had already finished Sasuke Retrieval and Soul Society was wrapping up in Bleach, and One Piece was entrenched in Water 7, while the respective anime were starting the respective arcs leading to those big moments). It was something that could only happen due to a layer of ignorance existing in the audience receiving it, and it happening to those three (really, those two, OP didn't get western traction until Marineford which is when the idea of a "Big Three" got solidified) is entirely just coincidence.

Had, say, Hunter x Hunter been pushed in the west at that time, it likely would've taken OP's place at the time. It had a manga that started around the same time and its anime would've have 70 episodes backlogged for broadcast (becoming 92 by the time it finished), reaching a similar high point of interest.
Or if the Fullmetal Alchemist anime gone the Pierrot route rather than the route it went down, it would've been looked on similarly.
Hell, multiple series had taken its place in the moment, like Reborn or Ultimate Muscle.

As an addendum, since someone will say it, yes, the "big three" conceptualization has been talked about in Japan, but squarely in the sense I describe, that all three of these ongoing manga achieved western popularity at the same time.

Last two are mobile slop

pre-ordered the Deluxe edition of Rebirth of Souls

PC launch was a complete disaster and I was only able to even launch the game one week after the initial release

online was already full of mexican sweats

two months later still no ranked mode

have been radio silence about DLC since release even if all characters were already leaked and one is already on the game as an unplayable boss

played 8 hours of story mode and just dropped it

cancellation of series seems far rougher with how many people are trying to create manga, so a lot of the plot has to drastically speed up, allowing little breathing room. It would be almost impossible to launch something like One Piece in this era.

The opposite is true actually.
Naruto itself was a victim of a rushed narrative leading to the Chuunin Exams because, as it was going at the time, Kishimoto's ideas would've likely gotten it cancelled.
Other manga from that time like Bleach or the later Toriko actually did fall victim to this and ended up rushing their endings (Toriko's is particularly funny given how much it sets up only to end abruptly, rushing to a final boss in the last two volumes).
The current day of Jump is far more lax and that is because their Jump+ service exists. Most works that get axed today are niche establishing works, like when Jump adds five comedy manga during a slow year and five months later maybe two of them remain. That's testing the waters, seeing what people like, and separating the wheat from the chaff.

popular franchises focus way more on women than before, even shonen jump has a large female reader bass and they're the biggest consoomers

Again, Naruto did this. Sasuke was not a Kishimoto character, that was an editor addition.

the newer generation is built on even more derivative shit: instead of a dragon ball ripoff with some new ideas we get a ripoff of a ripoff of dragon ball

And this just shows you're not informed at all.
None of the manga you're thinking about were primarily inspired by Dragon ball with the exception of One Piece. Bleach in particular is transparent with its roots in Saint Seiya, to the point where Araki called it out as Saint Seiya doujinshi.

Saint Seiya? It always seemed to borrow heavily from YuYu Hakusho, but I've not read/watched much Saint Seiya
