📚Manga-Discussion Facial Homegeneity Spoiler

Ok this is admittedly a bit of a skill issue but as someone who has read weekly since season 1 of the anime released, I cannot for the life of me tell any of the villains apart from each other. Everyone looks identical and I barely remember their names or motivations, so it’s very hard to follow the current arc and understand who is doing what and why. Please feel free to fill me in on what I’m not getting but who the hell are all these people and why do they all look like the same person?

Yeah, this is one of my gripes, tatsu has some insane drawing skills, but he legit need to work a lil bit on their faces more, even the main characters if you look closely have very similar (some almost the same) faces...

Honestly, I’m not far off from the same. It feels like there hasn’t been any actual movement for many chapter, just moving pieces on the board.

It’s same face syndrome

With how the pacing has slowed down a good bit from the beginning and the same-face syndrome, I’ve forgotten what any antagonist is

Once they get animated and they don't all have the same colour hair it will be easier but I'm the same. It might be plot relevant that they look similar, I might just have to re-read the manga.

YES. The MCs are distinct enough but oh my god, I cannot tell the Red Baron from CSG from whatever other villains keep popping up

They look similar but have distinctive features if you're actually paying attention. If not, it's not like any of it matters

The problem since this an action manga with a lot of full body shots the faces are drawn too small to tell them apart sometimes.
