      I think it's because it's a live stream for mainly english viewers, as well that Inio Asano is on an english VIZ media, which is an english platform. If he spoke in japanese, they would need subtitles, which they can't have in real time.

    A big part of what I like about Inio Asano’s work is that it depicts things like sex, violence, despair etc. in a way that feels real and doesn’t shy away from them. It is sometimes very frustrating with a lot of anime and manga that the characters and stories feel too cute and innocent to be relatable. Oyasumi Punpun I would say is my favorite work of Asano’s. Definitely go to his house and report back if you get the chance!

    Me: Hi.
    Asano Sensei: Hi.
    Signed Goodnight Punpun Vol. 1*
    Us: Took pictures*
    That's how it went. I was so shy starting a conversation with him, but it's one of my most treasured conversations I had in a while.

    Goodnight Pun Pun is such a painful experience, especially when you're reading it at what you feel is your lowest point. It's painful, but beautiful, and honestly that's why I hold Inio Asano as one of my top favorite manga artists. This man took something that could be beautiful, tore it apart, put it back together, then proceeded to beat it with a metal bat before bringing it back and making it beautiful. It's such a crazy trip, so chaotic and heart wrenching but you just can't look away, like a car crash. It's so amazing, I already finished it online but if I got the chance, I'd buy the physical copies just to have something to read on repeat no matter where I am, with or without wifi

    Oh my god! I've read The Girl on the Shore a while ago and decided to check out Oyasumi Punpun after hearing so much about it. I just finished reading it a few days ago and I was quite literally at a loss for words. I told my boyfriend that reading Punpun was like someone breaking your heart to utter pieces and you get to the end of the manga, and it's like the broken pieces were haphazardly glued back together. So you're not 100% okay, but you'll live. I'm SO happy you got to have this opportunity, Joey! I'm EXCITED.

    I read Oyasumi Punpun online in 2015. It was a tough read for me and i had to stop reading it a few times cause it was such a new, anxious experience. But each time i dropped it, i found myself picking it up later on. And now that the english release came out i have been collecting them all and rereading it again. It is such a painfully relatable, sad story. I love the way the characters are and how Punpun's simple looks can make the reader relate to him at times..overall, Punpun is a lovely work and i recommend it. The more i read Asano's work and each time i finish a series, i get this empty feeling. His works are powerful and can truly make a reader think about their own life or the deeper meaning of the story that they had just read (i had a mindblowing experience once i delved deeper into the story of Umibe no Onnanoko, which i also wrote a review of)

    Me: "Wow, an interview with Asano Inio and it's in English. Gotta watch this."
    *few moments later*
    Me: "Oh, it's not quite in English, but all right."
    *sees translator pro*
    Me: "That... that's amazing. How does she translate and keep listening at the same time?"
    Seriously though, I came here for the interview and what I got was mad respect for real time translators xD
    And like, it's kinda amazing how, like, she does it all so, like, well. Still, really good job :)
    For now I've only read Solanin and Bakemono Recchan from Asano Inio, but I'm planing to read Oyasumi Pun Pun and Dededede Destruction at some point.

    I appreciate your politeness with the translator. You always responded to the translator and not speak in Japanese, which was very professional of you, especially considering how late you were up! Good interview!

      Not too sure, but maybe it’s because I’d mostly read it online through OneManga. Knowing me, when that went down years ago, I probably just didn’t look for an alternative.

    It is amazing you got to do this interview. Asano is a genius. I would love to see you interview other mangakas, and I know this can be very difficult considering how private they are, but would also be amazing to see.

    @salvadormendiola2575 6 лет назад +3

    Oyasumi pun pun for sure is my favorite manga, I just love how he shows his view of the world through his drawings. I’m almost finished with reiraku actually, since I got hooked into it.

  • @Strickem
    @Strickem 6 лет назад +17

    Pupun is the manga that took me years to finish not because it’s bad or slow
    It’s because of how it makes me feel after reading just 1 chapter
    It depressed me it crippled me sometimes but i still love it however i will never go back to read it’s my number 1 manga but never again...

    I was pretty jazzed to see this. I'm a casual anime fan (which is why I recently subbed your channel) but avid graphic novel critic. Asano has been personal favourite of mine since about 2009 and I have all his US-released work. So far I've found Girl On The Shore the most personally meaningful of his works (if you read American manga crit, you may have encountered my review), but also that Solanin epilogue that just came out (which felt like a kind of Before Sunset reevaluation of the previous work) was pretty special treat for longtime fans.
    Anyway, thanks for putting this up. It was a nice surprise for me on a Tuesday afternoon.
