00:00:00
[Music]
00:00:03
I have read a ton of mangas these past
00:00:06
few days I've picked up series with
00:00:09
breathtaking panels creative fight
00:00:11
sequences that makes you feel the impact
00:00:13
of some of these strikes stories that
00:00:15
hold a special place in my heart it
00:00:18
comes a point in time when one have seen
00:00:20
enough animes they're left with one
00:00:22
question and one question only what do I
00:00:24
do now there's only so much one can
00:00:26
handle watching the same thing over and
00:00:28
over every asekai has a Kirito character
00:00:31
shonen's play out the same way and
00:00:34
there's somehow an audience for this
00:00:39
[Music]
00:00:42
what am I watching right now
00:00:45
so to escape this you decide to pick up
00:00:49
mangas
00:00:51
mangas in a lot of ways is an art form
00:00:53
it's a tool that takes us by the hand
00:00:56
and throws us into another realm I found
00:00:58
some mangas that I consider worth
00:01:00
reading and I'm sure it is at least one
00:01:02
manga in this video you can take away
00:01:04
there's mangas with great panels stories
00:01:06
that have you think about life series
00:01:08
that deserves way more attention and
00:01:11
many many more I've read up to at least
00:01:13
50 chapters for each of these mangas and
00:01:15
down below I left ratings of each of
00:01:18
these Series so feel free to skip ahead
00:01:20
if you're uninterested at a given part
00:01:21
and if you've read or seen all of these
00:01:24
mangas
00:01:25
then uh
00:01:27
um I don't know uh touch grass Maybe
00:01:37
this manga is one of the few mangas I've
00:01:39
read that genuinely made me laugh one
00:01:41
day but make me feel completely hyped on
00:01:43
another in terms of plot the story is
00:01:46
very straightforward the Fable is mainly
00:01:48
about one person Sato Akira Sato is a
00:01:52
Hitman who's really good at his job
00:01:54
somebody even consider him a literal
00:01:56
genius when it comes to killing he has
00:01:58
the ability to know if a gun is real
00:01:59
just from looking at it he has an
00:02:01
insanely precise aim to the point that
00:02:03
each of his victims wounds are always in
00:02:05
one of two places to the head or to the
00:02:08
heart and hearing his name brings Freer
00:02:10
to the eyes of many people after
00:02:13
completing a routine Mission he heads
00:02:15
back to his Hideout and it's here when
00:02:16
we're introduced to the boss and the
00:02:18
secondary character Yuko during this
00:02:20
meeting is revealed that over the span
00:02:22
of six years Sato has killed 71 people
00:02:25
in total people ranging from yakuzas to
00:02:28
politicians CEOs and doctors celebrities
00:02:31
the list goes on because of this the
00:02:34
boss decides to place a hold on taking
00:02:35
on jobs for a while and tells them to
00:02:37
lay low he hands him a fake ID and tells
00:02:40
him to head towards Osaka and experience
00:02:42
new things in an unfamiliar environment
00:02:44
but there's a catch during the time of
00:02:47
which he's there he's not allowed to
00:02:48
kill anyone this leads to Sato coming up
00:02:51
with creative ways to deal with various
00:02:53
situations the art in this manga is
00:02:56
easily one of the best when it comes to
00:02:58
a realistic standpoint the fight scenes
00:03:00
are choreographed in a way that makes
00:03:01
each fight exciting and seeing someone
00:03:03
who was once known as a brutal killer
00:03:06
forced to adapt to a normal life is
00:03:08
pretty damn entertaining like there's
00:03:10
just one instance when he comes out of a
00:03:12
bar with Yuko and he's confronted by
00:03:14
these two guys willing to fight how do
00:03:16
you think he handled the situation
00:03:21
hi 172 centimeters zero experience in
00:03:24
martial arts a right Haymaker I'll
00:03:26
pretend to take the punch while using my
00:03:28
forehead then pretend
00:03:32
as for this prophetic roundhouse kick
00:03:34
I'll start with my elbow brushing his
00:03:36
right foot while pretending it hit
00:03:38
singing the first kick tells me his
00:03:40
experience kickboxing maybe immediately
00:03:42
a high kick I'll still let him hit me
00:03:44
but mitigate the damage by slipping now
00:03:46
go flying and then it hits fake the
00:03:49
damage left jab I'll take this one to
00:03:51
get a nosebleed
00:03:54
now act even weaker using tears look at
00:03:57
this pitiful expression I'm truly a
00:03:59
professional that's the work of a pro
00:04:02
moments like these are what makes this
00:04:04
series so great there's also another
00:04:06
sequence where he met the same guy at a
00:04:08
mall but instead of taking hits he
00:04:10
decides to play a game of tag but not
00:04:12
just any tag he would quite literally
00:04:14
act scared grab their attention then
00:04:17
just run away for like 10 miles and then
00:04:19
when he realized he was outrunning them
00:04:21
who made them spot him again scream and
00:04:23
repeat this process Sato is a really
00:04:26
relatable guy that is if you take away
00:04:28
all the killing of course I'm Batman
00:04:30
throughout the story we see him get a
00:04:32
job interact with people laugh and even
00:04:35
gets a pet but when needed he's always
00:04:38
there to protect his friends and the
00:04:40
people around him this is a manga I
00:04:42
cannot stress you enough to read it's
00:04:44
one of my all-time favorite series for a
00:04:46
lot of reasons so much so that I was
00:04:49
seriously considering making a separate
00:04:50
video for this series he won the manga
00:04:52
with funny character interactions well
00:04:54
drawn out panels and a series of
00:04:56
unpredictable characters then give the
00:04:59
Fable a shot
00:05:03
thank you
00:05:08
foreign
00:05:20
fact my first encounter with this manga
00:05:22
was actually on Pinterest bored one day
00:05:24
during a summer afternoon I came across
00:05:27
this panel
00:05:29
let's just say
00:05:31
I was invested
00:05:35
Sido is a manga about loss and becoming
00:05:38
strong
00:05:39
1855 Japan is not an easy place anyone
00:05:42
could just go and live you're in
00:05:44
constant threats of Wars unknown
00:05:46
sickness diseases and raids it's not a
00:05:49
place best fit to raise a kid let alone
00:05:51
two of them again and show are the two
00:05:54
main characters of this story their
00:05:56
mother is sick desperately willing to
00:05:58
save her they head out and seek help but
00:06:00
given their mother status and condition
00:06:02
all the priests can say is there's
00:06:04
nothing left to do but pray unable to
00:06:07
accept this they beg once more and he
00:06:09
finally agrees to visit their home as
00:06:11
they're walking to the house the priest
00:06:13
enters the room alone and realizes she
00:06:15
has little to no time left to live
00:06:17
knowing this he tells a woman to speak
00:06:19
with her children one last time and
00:06:22
muster up the strength to leave behind
00:06:23
one more message and the last message to
00:06:26
her kids would be
00:06:28
take your father's sword and hone your
00:06:32
skills this world is unfair
00:06:35
if you are weak you die
00:06:40
I'm sorry
00:06:42
if left only their father's Sword and
00:06:44
the last message from their mother
00:06:46
printed in the back of their head this
00:06:48
would start a journey of the two of them
00:06:51
forced to become strong and live the
00:06:53
life of a samurai one of the main thing
00:06:56
this manga has going for itself is its
00:06:58
art style alone the art for this manga
00:07:00
is honestly one of the best I've seen in
00:07:02
a very long time some of the panels in
00:07:05
this manga will leave you questioning
00:07:07
how did he even manage to draw that from
00:07:09
the scenery to character introductions
00:07:11
to all the fight panels are second to
00:07:14
none I am a sucker when it comes to
00:07:16
stories of personal growth and when you
00:07:19
add an element of samurais and swords
00:07:21
you got my full attention throughout
00:07:23
their Journey they face various
00:07:25
different challenges they experience
00:07:27
loss from people close to them get
00:07:29
painted on heinous crimes they didn't
00:07:31
commit and are forced to even
00:07:33
participate in the death battle for the
00:07:35
enjoyment of others but even after all
00:07:38
of that they still hold on to the fire
00:07:40
deep inside of them and push towards
00:07:42
their goal of becoming a samurai this
00:07:45
manga is one of the longer ones in this
00:07:46
list without having 256 chapters there's
00:07:50
so much I want to say about this manga
00:07:52
but given the length and this being just
00:07:54
a recommendation video I would just say
00:07:57
give it 10 chapters
00:07:59
[Music]
00:08:07
I could see a lot of you skipping out on
00:08:09
this one based on this cover alone but
00:08:11
if I had to explain this manga in two
00:08:13
words then the only thing that could
00:08:15
best summarize this series
00:08:17
is the non-stop action and violence
00:08:24
yeah I'm not even going to try to
00:08:25
pronounce that the story takes place
00:08:27
during the 1600 in the world where Oda
00:08:30
Nobunaga ruled over all of Japan here in
00:08:33
a name like Aura might have sent chills
00:08:35
and flashbacks to all the other series
00:08:37
that has that name included I mean
00:08:39
there's a sekires video games and Demon
00:08:41
Lords but
00:08:43
I don't know if I told you he's only
00:08:45
really present in one chapter
00:08:47
[Applause]
00:08:54
[Music]
00:09:06
who is the strongest martial artist in
00:09:09
Japan is a question often asked within
00:09:11
this manga Oda is old as hell death is
00:09:15
approaching him and he is in need of
00:09:17
someone to carry out his legacy he looks
00:09:19
at all of the people close to him from
00:09:21
his loyal retainers to his sons and
00:09:24
calls every single one of them
00:09:26
[Music]
00:09:28
trash he desires human struggles and
00:09:32
things the only person fit to take his
00:09:34
place is the most powerful Warrior so he
00:09:38
hosts a tournament but not just any
00:09:39
tournament a tournament where only the
00:09:42
strongest survives in this tournament
00:09:44
people from all over Japan joins you got
00:09:47
War Legends foreigners people from
00:09:49
different Clans and a lot of these
00:09:51
people each have their reasonings for
00:09:53
joining this tournament some join to
00:09:55
restore peace in their country others
00:09:57
consider Geniuses joined to reach their
00:09:59
fullest potential while some joined to
00:10:02
uphold their family's name and lineage
00:10:04
this manga wastes zero time to start
00:10:07
rolling the very first chapter includes
00:10:09
the first fight of the tournament
00:10:10
there's panels in here that are done and
00:10:13
drawn in a way that leaves you in a
00:10:15
state of awe fight sequences that makes
00:10:17
you feel the impact of strikes you're
00:10:19
never gonna know how each fight plays
00:10:21
out in the stakes of death lingering
00:10:23
makes each fight much more meaningful
00:10:25
each character within the story has some
00:10:27
sort of troubling or dark past the plot
00:10:30
to say the least isn't also unique we've
00:10:33
seen this layout play out in numerous
00:10:34
other series was set this manga apart
00:10:37
from everything else is its creative
00:10:39
fight sequences every fight within this
00:10:41
tournament is done in a different
00:10:43
environment so it never feels dull this
00:10:45
ranges from lands to ships to forces and
00:10:48
even a cage there's also an element of
00:10:51
fantasy included within the story this
00:10:53
guy body heats up drastically improving
00:10:55
his physical abilities this guy uses the
00:10:58
power of literal gods and universes this
00:11:01
guy is blind but somehow has a domain
00:11:03
expansion every battle heavy story
00:11:06
always has that one old guy who's
00:11:08
extremely cracked for no reason Hunter
00:11:10
Hunter has nettero bleach has Yamamoto
00:11:14
Sakamoto days has takamura it's almost
00:11:16
illegal to not include them in any
00:11:18
action story and in the case of this
00:11:21
manga we have Tota Toda is a blind
00:11:23
swordsman who is set to fight fuma this
00:11:26
fight fuma to me is one of the best
00:11:28
fight sequences for this manga so far a
00:11:30
combination of their past the reasoning
00:11:32
for fighting and the overall fight I
00:11:34
found to be extremely entertaining the
00:11:37
quality of the art in this fight let
00:11:39
alone the rest is why I think you should
00:11:40
at least give this manga a shot it's
00:11:42
currently 24 chapters so it's an
00:11:45
extremely short read if you want a story
00:11:47
with some of the best drawn-out spreads
00:11:49
good fight sequences and a dumb but
00:11:51
entertaining story and I would seriously
00:11:54
recommend you to watch this
00:11:56
you know
00:12:00
let's just be honest here you all are
00:12:02
going to pick this up because of her
00:12:04
[Music]
00:12:08
[Applause]
00:12:09
[Music]
00:12:26
where do I even start with a manga like
00:12:29
Solo in this is a manga I recently
00:12:32
finished and picked up because of a
00:12:34
YouTube video made from Alex in this
00:12:36
video Alex made an emphasis on not
00:12:39
knowing how to describe the feelings he
00:12:40
felt after reading this series
00:12:43
it's been really hard for me to be able
00:12:45
to come up with a script for how I feel
00:12:47
about this manga like I seriously Cried
00:12:49
by the end of it but I'm not exactly
00:12:51
sure how to word the feelings that it
00:12:53
gave and once I've read the Manga for
00:12:54
myself I honestly can say I feel the
00:12:57
same way as he did sullenin is a manga
00:13:00
created by inio asano the same guy who
00:13:04
made ayasumi pun pun it's a story about
00:13:06
life and moving forward from your past a
00:13:09
big emphasis within this story is the
00:13:12
elements of Music the two main
00:13:14
characters in this manga use music as a
00:13:16
way to show and express what they're
00:13:18
feeling Tanada and Mikko are just two
00:13:21
young adults lost confused and uncertain
00:13:24
of their future all they do is live day
00:13:26
to day towards their goals we see
00:13:28
moments of them hanging out with friends
00:13:30
spending quality time with one another
00:13:32
and supporting each other towards their
00:13:35
Ambitions Nico Works an office job her
00:13:38
co-workers suck her boss hits on her in
00:13:40
his spare time in this hair when she
00:13:42
decided she had enough and ultimately
00:13:45
decides to quit
00:13:47
Canada hasn't really gotten used to
00:13:49
society yet himself throughout the story
00:13:52
he showed instances of wanting to pursue
00:13:54
music but is too afraid to act on his
00:13:56
desires this story gets really heavy
00:13:58
towards the 14th chapter Mark and it's
00:14:01
here when we see how one event can
00:14:03
change their life in an instant I think
00:14:05
what makes the series so good for me at
00:14:07
least is how authentic and real
00:14:09
everything felt to the character's
00:14:11
conversation to their reactions and the
00:14:13
way they hand the loss is all very
00:14:15
normal the story is extremely short but
00:14:18
for its time that is here you're left
00:14:20
with a satisfaction like no other say
00:14:22
Miko's personal growth by the end of the
00:14:25
series was something truly beautiful and
00:14:28
my short attempt to sell this work was
00:14:30
probably bad but even then I would
00:14:33
recommend you to give it a shot
00:14:39
[Music]
00:14:43
Satoshi is a complete he accepts
00:14:47
depth from people beats his me to his
00:14:49
brother and his girlfriend and is easily
00:14:51
a Target to day-to-day harassment
00:14:53
filmica on the other hand
00:14:57
is a complete opposite she's outgoing
00:15:00
aggressive I would even pick fights with
00:15:02
just about anyone after saving Satoshi
00:15:05
they started a spike for him a desire to
00:15:08
change he's aware that he's a good for
00:15:10
nothing but even then when Tomoka is in
00:15:13
trouble he steps in and nearly cracks
00:15:17
his skull open
00:15:18
sekito allergy is your typical romance
00:15:21
story a shy and reserved MC heard of a
00:15:24
more independent and strong woman and as
00:15:27
the story progresses Satoshi develops
00:15:29
into a respectable guy the main thing
00:15:31
this manga has going for itself are its
00:15:34
characters it's a story about two young
00:15:36
adults I had a great time reading this
00:15:38
manga and it felt like the closest thing
00:15:40
to an actual relationship I'm sure that
00:15:42
I speak for many out there when I say
00:15:44
that it's hard to find a romance manga
00:15:46
or anime that truly feels relatable the
00:15:49
only thing I could see you not willing
00:15:51
to pick up this manga is this art if I
00:15:53
had to describe the art with one word I
00:15:55
would say that it's sufficient you're
00:15:57
most likely not going to be amazed at
00:15:59
any of the panels or character
00:16:01
depictions but I think the mangeka does
00:16:04
a good job of drawing facial expressions
00:16:06
that convey an emotion I would say give
00:16:09
this manga five chapters and if you're
00:16:10
still not feeling it just skip on to the
00:16:12
next
00:16:13
foreign
00:16:18
[Music]
00:16:25
is a story that traces the lives of two
00:16:28
rival Heroes Jin and Koga Jin is a
00:16:32
superhuman known as a zet growing up he
00:16:35
faced various hardships and seen that
00:16:37
people closest to him die or get
00:16:39
severely hurt during these incidents he
00:16:42
becomes sort of a cold person who on the
00:16:44
outside pretends not to care but
00:16:46
realistically he doesn't want to lose
00:16:48
anyone because of him Koga on the other
00:16:50
hand is a rich and spoiled kid was only
00:16:53
dreams and aspiration is becoming the
00:16:55
superhero he grew up watching leading up
00:16:58
to his first encounter with Jen his
00:17:00
views on justice has always been screwed
00:17:02
throughout the progression of the story
00:17:04
he goes through multiple trials and is
00:17:06
constantly challenged of killing for the
00:17:08
sake of justice is right over time his
00:17:11
ideology about Justice is tested and
00:17:14
ultimately develops into his own unique
00:17:16
character Dead Man's entertainment
00:17:18
doesn't stem from his themes and
00:17:20
characters alone the action and tension
00:17:23
between characters and finding out the
00:17:25
mystery there is an origin of how things
00:17:27
came to be is what set this manga apart
00:17:29
it's interesting to read and see how
00:17:32
each of their lives as people and their
00:17:34
lives as superheroes are entirely
00:17:36
different so you're probably asking
00:17:38
what's the story about what is a zent
00:17:40
man and why should I be reading this up
00:17:42
to this point I've only been explaining
00:17:44
the two main characters well to answer
00:17:47
all of your questions describing the
00:17:49
story of zetman is sort of difficult
00:17:51
when you read this manga nothing really
00:17:53
makes sense from the first couple of
00:17:55
chapters so out of all the mangas I
00:17:57
listed in this video this one takes a
00:17:59
couple of chapters to start rolling the
00:18:01
artwork for this manga is easily one of
00:18:04
its strongest point this manga does an
00:18:06
amazing job at portraying gritty dark
00:18:09
and the reality of the world they live
00:18:10
in everything from its character designs
00:18:13
fight sequences and the raw emotions of
00:18:15
some of these characters are done with a
00:18:18
great deal of detail demon is for those
00:18:20
heroic action story lovers it has sort
00:18:23
of a western comic feel and takes some
00:18:25
heavy inspiration from other Classic
00:18:27
series like Devil Man
00:18:28
[Music]
00:18:41
foreign
00:18:47
[Music]
00:18:58
manga from its dark and gritty artwork
00:19:01
its Terror and nail biting sequences
00:19:05
some of the things you see and
00:19:06
experience here isn't for the weak
00:19:08
stomach while once was a loving and
00:19:11
respectable family
00:19:12
[Music]
00:19:29
[Laughter]
00:19:36
is an aspiring writer filled with dreams
00:19:40
and ambition whilst Mika is well
00:19:44
she's more of a manipulative gold digger
00:19:46
but after A Series of Unfortunate Events
00:19:49
seiji would come to find his life
00:19:51
crashing down replacing this job blamed
00:19:55
for the killing of his son by not only
00:19:57
his wife but his in-laws as well all he
00:20:00
wanted was a second chance in the family
00:20:02
there's only so much one can take
00:20:05
until they snap
00:20:15
later in this story he takes Meek on a
00:20:18
trip at an attempt to revive his already
00:20:20
broken relationship driving to a
00:20:22
waterfall he abruptly stops and is here
00:20:25
where he says we're out of fuel don't
00:20:28
worry there's a lighthouse a few
00:20:29
kilometers ahead we'll have to walk
00:20:31
there and ask for help Darkness with the
00:20:34
sounds of heavy rain and thunder they
00:20:36
hop out of the car and it was here when
00:20:39
seichi decided he was going to once and
00:20:41
for all kill Mika she would luckily be
00:20:44
able to escape and make it to a cave and
00:20:46
only being followed by him in the brink
00:20:49
of him concluding his revenge the two of
00:20:51
them get hit and get dragged into
00:20:52
possibly the worst place anyone could be
00:20:55
at Hideout is a psychological dark manga
00:20:58
that follows the story of a man pushed
00:21:00
to his utmost limit if you're a fan of
00:21:02
horror I feel like this is something you
00:21:04
might have at least seen or heard of
00:21:06
before there's only nine chapters making
00:21:08
it one volume and then something you
00:21:10
could finish in one sitting
00:21:13
[Music]
00:21:18
so once in a while I like to separate
00:21:20
myself from all the heavy action and
00:21:22
grotesque genre of Shonen and find
00:21:25
myself reading stories that puts a more
00:21:27
heavier emphasis on character
00:21:29
development and life in general that's
00:21:31
where this manga comes into play colon
00:21:34
generic romance is a manga far from
00:21:36
being generic from its very first
00:21:38
chapter leading up to his current
00:21:40
release this manga has some of the best
00:21:42
visuals and authentically pleasing
00:21:45
panels I have ever seen anytime I read a
00:21:48
chapter I find myself making personal
00:21:50
notes to myself like wow that that uh
00:21:53
that water is watering past and current
00:21:56
love versus Amnesia mystery and suspense
00:21:59
Are All Things Incorporated within this
00:22:02
manga the story follows two characters
00:22:05
Kudo and kujide they work at a standard
00:22:08
office job and for the first few
00:22:10
chapters the story follows their
00:22:12
day-to-day life they're both complete
00:22:14
opposites of one another Kudo values
00:22:16
Nostalgia and would rather repeat the
00:22:18
same routine every day he eats the same
00:22:21
meals visits the same places and does
00:22:23
the same thing whilst kujide is someone
00:22:26
who is always down to try something new
00:22:28
despite their differences and interests
00:22:30
they still go out of their way to spend
00:22:33
quality time together as friends of
00:22:35
course as the story progresses and the
00:22:38
more time they spend with one another
00:22:39
kujide slowly develops feelings for him
00:22:42
and on one random instance she finds an
00:22:45
old photo of him and this mysterious
00:22:47
second girl and it's revealed that the
00:22:50
second girl in the photo was her all
00:22:53
along
00:22:54
well kind of Kudo is hiding something
00:22:57
huge she doesn't know something happened
00:22:59
between the two of them in her past but
00:23:01
she has no recollection of it at all
00:23:03
thus starting the main appeal and the
00:23:06
Mystery aspect of this manga the author
00:23:09
does a really good job at second you in
00:23:11
and leaving you wanting to know more and
00:23:13
what happens next why did she lose her
00:23:15
memory is that even her why didn't Kudo
00:23:18
mention any of this all of these are
00:23:21
questions that slowly get answered the
00:23:22
more you read if that wasn't too
00:23:24
appealing to you then one of this
00:23:26
manga's main strength is its artwork
00:23:28
it's all done in a way that has so much
00:23:31
passion and The Vibes I get from some of
00:23:33
these panels are unmatched it's made by
00:23:35
the same author who made after the rain
00:23:37
so you know when it comes to the art
00:23:39
Department it's not going to fall short
00:23:41
I would say give this manga like five
00:23:43
chapters at least
00:23:44
[Music]
00:23:56
alright so for these last two mangas I
00:23:58
purposely left them last for two reasons
00:24:00
one the sheer greatness the two mangas
00:24:03
are and two the feelings in Everlasting
00:24:06
effect the two mangas left in my life
00:24:08
starting with the climber the climber in
00:24:11
the beginning is like every Sports manga
00:24:13
there's a quiet and reserved kid as an
00:24:15
emcee a big and energetic guy who plays
00:24:18
the role of a rival a teacher some dark
00:24:21
past you get the point but don't let
00:24:23
that fool you into thinking this is your
00:24:25
typical Sports Anime it's way more deep
00:24:29
than you can imagine
00:24:30
what sets this manga apart from Every
00:24:33
Other Sports Anime is the psychological
00:24:35
aspect revolving this guy Mori is a
00:24:38
loner he never was truly engrossed or
00:24:40
engaged in anything at all he sleeps in
00:24:43
class lacks social skills and even
00:24:45
skipped its first period to stare at a
00:24:47
bunch of clouds what changed his life in
00:24:50
a path he was headed was being
00:24:51
introduced to climbing
00:24:53
now before I continue I want to let this
00:24:55
be known since it's kind of important
00:24:57
and what shifted the manga from being
00:24:59
generic to Peak the climber was
00:25:02
originally made by two people sakamo
00:25:04
sinchi who was in charge of the art
00:25:06
department and yoshiro nabita leading
00:25:08
the story aspect now for unknown reasons
00:25:11
you should have decided you know what
00:25:13
I'm not really feeling this I stepped
00:25:15
out on working on the rest of the series
00:25:16
and run the third volume mark this left
00:25:19
CNG into picking up the story element
00:25:21
and to say this possibly wasn't the
00:25:23
greatest decision
00:25:25
would be an understatement
00:25:30
[Music]
00:25:36
seeing she shifted the story from a
00:25:38
classic Shonen Sports Anime into a more
00:25:41
coming of age and finding yourself story
00:25:43
we know Mori has bad social skills we
00:25:46
know he prefers to stay to himself but
00:25:48
throughout the story his glimpse of him
00:25:49
wanting to change and better himself
00:25:51
he's human like the rest of us and often
00:25:54
blames himself for a lot of things that
00:25:56
are out of his control I don't want to
00:25:58
make this section too long since this
00:26:00
video is already long enough but if you
00:26:02
ever found yourself struggling to relate
00:26:04
to others then this manga may be for you
00:26:06
if you felt lonely afraid and constantly
00:26:09
questioned if the things you're doing
00:26:11
today were the right choices then give
00:26:13
this manga a shot when I first came
00:26:15
across this manga I had zero interested
00:26:18
in rock climbing but the journey and
00:26:20
seeing Mori develop is something I can
00:26:22
find myself relating to a lot
00:26:24
there's moments in the story that likes
00:26:26
dialogue but the artwork and knowing
00:26:28
mauri's character feels like despite
00:26:31
there being no words you can understand
00:26:32
how he's feeling and thinking at any
00:26:35
given moment
00:26:36
climbing is freedom for him and there's
00:26:39
an escape from the society he can't seem
00:26:41
to fit into
00:26:43
also come on that's not enough for you
00:26:45
just look at the artwork
00:26:47
homunculus is an interesting manga that
00:26:49
I find myself struggling to put into
00:26:51
words what does it mean to be human and
00:26:54
who am I or questions nikoshi often
00:26:56
finds himself asking he once was the
00:26:59
salary man but now spends his days
00:27:01
living in his car randomly one day after
00:27:03
running out of gas he was left of two
00:27:05
options add fuel to his car or buy food
00:27:08
to satisfy his current hunger and in the
00:27:11
process of him thinking
00:27:14
a mysterious man comes and offers him a
00:27:16
deal a chance to let go of all of his
00:27:19
worries a chance of getting seven
00:27:21
hundred thousand won all he needed to do
00:27:24
was be a part of his experiment an
00:27:26
experiment that opens your Sixth Sense
00:27:28
and the only way to achieve that is by
00:27:32
having to hold driven to your skull
00:27:35
to which he agrees
00:27:38
foreign
00:27:47
nothing seemed out of the ordinary they
00:27:50
tried going to ghost tunnels places
00:27:52
where people died but no luck what
00:27:55
seemed to be a failed experiment headed
00:27:57
back a wind of dirt would get into his
00:27:59
eye and when he would look up he would
00:28:01
see things that are unimaginable he
00:28:04
would gain the ability to look at
00:28:06
homunculuses little monsters which
00:28:08
reflect the psychology of others and
00:28:10
what they truly are in the inside
00:28:12
homunculus starts subtle but slowly all
00:28:15
the Mysteries are revealed everything
00:28:17
that doesn't seem to fit fall into place
00:28:19
later on as the story progresses nikoshi
00:28:22
is sort of the bridge between Both
00:28:24
Worlds I like this manga so much that I
00:28:26
did some extra digging behind in my
00:28:28
Gecko and turns out hideo Yamamoto the
00:28:31
author actually lived as a homeless
00:28:34
person for some time in order to be able
00:28:36
to credibly include the theme of
00:28:38
homelessness in his work the surgery
00:28:40
that awakened his sixth sense is
00:28:42
actually a real thing Trey painting also
00:28:45
known as Burr hole is a surgery Invasion
00:28:48
created during the 1488 and 1516. it's a
00:28:53
surgery in which a hole is drummed or
00:28:55
scraped into your skull it's used as a
00:28:57
way to treat health problems but in
00:28:59
ancient times it was used as a way to
00:29:01
cleanse people who are behaving in a way
00:29:04
that was considered abnormal and lastly
00:29:07
not really a fact about the author but
00:29:09
nikoshi also eats his own nuts so take
00:29:12
that however you made
00:29:16
oh
00:29:24
[Music]
