Answer: no backgrounds.
Lol
I'm currently doing my best to publish my manga in Japan so your series has been extremely resourceful for me, please keep it up.
Good luck
That's cool
Good luck buddy, i hope that too for myself in some years 👌🏼
Good luck man
Good luck to you!! And thanks for watching!
Excellent video. 16 pages in 14hrs. Inspiring
fr
piccolo you have no sauce
Can I get you to draw me a tatt lol
Mr. Kusanagi as japanese the problem I see about non-jp manga is that they inspire themselves entirely on manga. Mangakas are known to have interest outside of manga. It feels like most non japanese just see shonen jump and try to emulate it ideally you should insert stuff from other media and genres into your work otherwise it gets stale. Thanks you
Yeah, I totally agree. Actually after being in Japan for so long, I also see many Japanese mangaka make the mistake of overusing Japanese manga/anime tropes. The top mangaka of are really good of course, but there are hundreds of manga and light novels that are unoriginal and boring because even a majority of Japanese mangaka, light novelists, and anime studios just want to make some fast money. There’s a reason I don’t really like the whole isekai genre nowadays. Thanks for the honest comment and observation! 😊
Japanese mangaka do this all the time, if anything probably way more often. Every year loads of series are cancelled from Jump for this reason.
@kusanagi420 Isekai has become way too overused but at least it gave us Truck-kun
The way you deliver the story is just outstanding.
Thank you!! Glad you like the videos!
@@kusanagi420Hi. How much will I need to pay you to draw a online manga for me!? Thank you🙏.
Even skipping all the storyboarding and stuff, I can't imagine being able to draw and ink a full page within an hour.
Just try, my brother. Reach inside and grab that power within you.
This is not uncommon. West comics artists have been doing it since the cold war too.
16 pages in 14 hours is insane! I would be very interested by your drawing process, how you can be so fast while still make high quality drawings. Could you make a video showing how you draw a manga page please?
Currently producing my first Mwanga (manga from Angola, an African country) and this video gave me back the excitement to keep going. Thank you
I’m interested!! That’s something different!!! 😁👌🏼
This kusanagi guy has talent I hope his manga becomes famous
You have Brazil rooting for you
True 🇧🇷
The dawn of the next RUclips big artist. These video are scientifically designed for success, well done my guy 💯😎💪🏼
Thank you!
The fact that I didn’t automatically unsubscribe after realizing he has was a kylo ren fan is a testament to the quality of this channel keep up the great work.
Haha, thanks 😂 I like the aesthetic of Kylo Ren, but I think the writing of the latest trilogy didn’t do him (or any of the characters for that matter) justice. He had so much potential as a character. But I think his visual design looks pretty cool
@@kusanagi420 I agree his visual design is quite phemonal but like most sequel trilogy characters he didn't have depth or plausible motivation. I especially mourn Finn's character a ex stormtrooper with mediclorian counts off the charts(in the original plans at least) the stories would've written themselves😭😭😭
Top quality comment right here
Dude I love your energy
MY god you been pumping out these high quality video like its nothing
Your video has been such a great motivator, every time you talk more about manga it lit a fire under me to get off my bed and actually work toward my manga so keep it up man 👍
Thanks!!! I’m glad you are liking the videos!
Wow this video was really interesting!
Thank you!
Man bro, you've inspired me to go ahead and start my channel, I plan to be releasing some analysis of video game anime music. The first (non-short) video actually comes out today! Seeing people like you who start with good quality off the bat is good motivation for me.
Aww, thanks! And good luck with your own journey!
Yeah, execution is one of the majors parts when it comes to publishing, also I'm still gonna beat you in the next SMA
Haha, it doesn’t work like that 😂. 100 people can win the grand prix if they all deserve it. Good luck!
Thank you for this video I've trying to make a manga since I was 9 and this was rly helpfull
Ya know, I kinda like the simplistic designs (mostly) and how the rounded shapes were used. It has a nostalgic aura to it, that's the best way I can describe it.
Jeez 16pgs in 14 hours that's like a page an hour I can only do one page a day maybe 2 if I'm ready! Truly inspiring mate
There were some sacrifices made so I don’t think that’s a healthy pace for making manga. But thanks for watching the video!
@@kusanagi420
Agreed.
Having participated in a couple of marathon comic book sessions
(each producing 24 pages in 24 hours)
there are definitely some shortcuts taken to hit the target deadline.
However,
I rather like how high of quality the finish and render your sixteen pages demonstrated.
It shows me more of what can be possible,
with sufficient skill, enthusiasm, focus . . . and coffee. LOT's of coffee. XD
loved that Chainsaw man refrence in the beginning between. I would love to hear your thoughts on CSM manga someday
Maybe some day :D
Watching your videos convinced me to give writing a more serious attempt. I'm not much of an artist, but hopefully I can create a story I'm proud of soon. Looking forward to the next video!
Thanks! Good luck with your own journey and thanks for being a Squire!
This was so insightful and encouraging! Thank you for making this video!
Week 3 Here's what I think. I enjoyed it. I don't have much to say but that and one more thing. I also enjoyed how you were talking about what to do and what not to do as a starting or already mangaka (for STORYBOARDING). It inspires me to become a mangaka. I do need to learn a lot more and how to actually draw. And as soon as I now a lot and I can/want to make mangas I will maybe even become a mangaka. But who knows if that's my approach in the future. Maybe I will at least make one. Anyways I enjoyed it and I say this was a 10/10 week.
Thanks!!!
please be big in the manga industry
Thanks! That’s the plan! :D
Just wanted to say that you're amazing for pursuing your dream wholeheartedly, I hope you find what you are looking for.
Your dedication is an awesome motivator to keep me focus on my goals! Keep it going, we're never gonna stop supporting ya.
Thanks a bunch!
The Outro! That was fun!!
Haha, thanks!
Common Kusanagi W. Best video so far.
Thanks!!
Him waking up: " ONNNEE MILLION SUUUBBSSS!!!!!!!! "
love your content bro!
Hey, man! Great video! Bring more advices and things you've learnt with it too, I think it would be a great addition to the video.
ROAD TO 1000 WARRIOR BABEY!!
10,000 warriors incoming!
I've never subscribed to a channel that fast. Dude has talent, is interesting, informative, funny and professional.
Kusanagi, I loved every single second of the video. Keep up with your work, I can't wait to see your future projects, manga and videos!
Another SMA19 contestant! Heck yea! Currently submitting my first manga to that contest and I'm nervous but eager to start my journey.
thanks to your first video i decided to do an entry in SMA as well(its hard to do even a single page with just mouse and keyboard)
Oh that’s really tough!! Good luck!!
Keep rising kusanagi!!, Been waiting 11 day for a new video finally
Sorry to keep you waiting and thanks for watching!
As a fellow comic creator who's also trying to find my audience, I'm really enjoying this videos. Very relatable and you have a cool style as both a mangaka and as a vlogger.
Thanks
Love the Vids working on my own and your dedication inspires me
Thank you!
Those dance moves were fire!!! Thank you for the insight!
Also, love the concept for this channel. Keep posting man
Great video! Awesome to see how a manga is made! 🔥
What a great and entertaining video!! DAYUM!! I NEED MORE!
Thanks!!!
Oh and forgot to mentione your art style is insane IT looks better than most of shounen manga
Thanks!!
This channel was an amazing discovery! Thank you for sharing your story. I also moved to Tokyo to “study japanese”, but actually is was because chasing the dream to be published in Japan. I already have some comics published in USA and my country, but being able to work on art here is a dream that I hope to fulfill someday. For now, the language classes are not letting me enough free time to work on my stuff, and I am already too old to keep waiting, so I really need to find a good plan about how to balance my life and keep my student visa alive (for now). Good luck on your adventure and keep us updated.
Great video dude! Left me super inspired to get drawing today ^^
Here to support, you through your journey 😁😁😁 , super inspirational for people like me who also want to have they’re manga published in Japan 🇯🇵
your videos always inspire me so much!! just finished watching and im waiting for the next one already
Aww, thank you so much!
verrrrrryyyy weeeelll doooonee Kusanagi! Even I'M proud of this video haha
Haha, thanks!!
Bro this is a gold mine, invaluable jnsight. Thank you so much!!!
Dude out of the hours of RUclips I consume everyday your videos are top notch. I see your youtube growth as well deserved and personally your content is the quality of a channel with one million subscribers. Please keep up the good work I love your content.
Thank you so much for the feedback! I try my best to create good stuff!
What great videos, you inspired me a lot to make my own manga, i hope you continue making more manga and more videos, God bless you, greetings from Guatemala, blessings, keep it up frien, good luck in everything you do.
Outstanding video, criminally underrated. Keep going dude!!!
I am working on self publishing our first manga soon & I wish I would have seen this video before I started! Very inspiring stuff!
Good video, keep going 🔥
Thank you!
Damn your editing getting more insane
Thank you so much!
Bro, I'm just excited for your future
Aww geez, thanks!!!
With the great editing and how entertaining your video is, it was very much worth the wait! Thanks for the upload and I hope your feeling better!
Thank you so much! And thank you for being a Squire!
@@kusanagi420 np! 😁
Bro ngl this channel is so freaking awesome, so entertaining to hear your stuff. definitely deserves to blow up soon frfr
Cheers!!
Man you make some great videos and your art is dope, good luck on your journey !!!
I don't have goals to become a mangaka because i am lazy ( something i am trying to be less of ) but i do have long term plans to someday work on short comics/manga. I do read a lot of manga both old and new, i am not an artist but still i wanna tell a story someday in this medium of manga or western comics whichever. So watching your videos is educational to some extent and your videos are fun.
Thanks!
I love your stuff, mate! I wish you the best! Let's go!! :)
you are a great. interesting and funny story teller!
That intro is amazing
Thanks! It took me some time to get it right so I’m glad you liked it!
Pro presentation,chill music,and clear idea properties of a rising star "but" with great power comes great responsibility (don't forget to remember your first viewers)
Yes, thanks!
Congrats on 9k my boy 🎉
Thank you so much!!!
Loved the vid! Great work man
Thank you!
related to the introduction, a good story and message are forever, they are not secondary, in fact they are the primary source from where you are getting your inspiration. I agree though, the delivery is key to spread widely
Keep it up bro🔥
I just happy that RUclips recommended you 🥳
Geez, thanks!!!
dude you are so underrated, its so inspiring seeing you work!
Thank you!
Really nice art man. Keep it up. I subscribed.
I love your videos so much! I'd love to see more art related content!
Glad you like them!
Can we get a tutorial on your effect skills, cause they look crazy good.
Your work is kinda good tbh.. The simplistic panel with no background was a really good solution for your concept, because it fit perfectly.
If you work just by yourself, i think u don't have to make the full storyboard (especially if you work on that story immediately). But i suggest that you still make the smaller thumbnail storyboard. The focus here is to make sure that the flow is handled before we actually draw. And also we can tweak some panel's compositions to be more dynamic. It will help us to see the whole manga from a bigger perspective to make our game plan
sooo inspiring man
Thanks!!!!
Well done mate!
Thanks, mate!
@@kusanagi420 Hahaha - look at that, your'e practically an australian now :P
I love that Z pattern in American Comics it’s very similar and yes you need to basically write & then composite each panel in a way that flows for the audiences eyes.
You also need to do increments of small time jumps that make sense from panel to panel since unlike an animation you can’t show every action take place frame by frame.
It’s something to keep in my mind constantly when outlining & scripting. I’m working on a webcomic where you gotta do that for someone who’s scrolling and it’s a completely different beast since the artist doesn’t have as much space like a full page (instead it’s basically portrait mode vs landscape 😂)
Yeah, I imagine webcomic creation would be a totally different beast. Thanks for the insight!
This video is amazing love this man! You are doing great
Thank you!!
One of the coolest yt channels i've ever discovered :)
that was a pretty solid video, I find your insight as a English-speaking mangaka unique and refreshing, considering the usual conversations or interviews of native mangaka have to be translated and become kind of cryptic. I also really like hearing you speak on manga themes as you develop them as a creator, I think that is a less talked about process, compared to the technical aspects of patching together an eye-catching manga with good flow. It would be cool to see some of your older, rougher art seeing as everything you make seems so insanely polished and clean. I really hope you achieve the independence you are working towards so you may devote yourself to your art and your channel as you see fit.
Thanks for the comment! Yeah, I feel there aren’t as many English-speaking mangaka talking about the non-technical aspects
I saw the video 17 minutes after it's released but I'm at Uni rn :(
No worries! Watch in anytime, and thanks!
great video 👍 your art looks so crispy, I could read a seinen manga with that art and it would easily be in my top 3. keep up the good work 👍
Geez, thanks!!
Its so good to see so many talented people !!!!
1. Art 2. Story 3. Delivery
I usually disagree with people (mostly because of language imprecision) but I found myself struggling to disagree with above. However, reflecting on the Manga that stands out to me the most, it's what I've been calling:
1. What they added and what they did not add or else the limit of what they added +
2. The panels format and the interaction of these on a page eg different panel types, breaking panels, each individual panel, the whole effect of the page with the cumulative effect of the panels and I guess as you point out the story flow with a Right-Left Z-shape standard.
I feel the author of Chainsaw Man does the above one of the best I've seen. I am almost zero artist so it is only personal impression. Btw I really did feel GOOD hearing you would suffer for your inexcusable crime of revealing a CM Spoiler, so callously! So if that was the effect you were going for, it worked.
I think Delivery might be the best word to describe the above succinctly, but I also think there's even more to it than just the combination of all the above coordinated to produce the emotional effect in the reader that is intended. I think also, there's a deeper aesthetic the artist is trying to create emerge as well?
There I said I always disagree with people.
Your silent story with the trek up the sanctuary steps felt very good in both art and story and delivery. However it just needed a specific aesthetic to make everything in harmony and not individual components of these things and then it would have gained first prize imho (the story was the best one I read out of the small samples I chose to read) and I liked the art especially (crisp, energized but controlled style).
Your Patreon offer seems well thought out and inspired given each Patreon gains a little art card as well as buying a coffee. I wish I could support 50+ Patreons but I am not successful enough even if I am wise enough to think to do so. If you did a 10$ tier could each Patreon at that level request a specific small piece of art each month?
Thanks for the feedback!
So to sum it up for me:
Highest Priority = Delivery
High Priority = Story
Low Priority = Art
Chainsaw Man is pretty good but I think Fujimoto’s other works are actually better, like “Goodbye, Eri”.
Regarding the Patreon I think I’ll stick with $5 dollars for now. It’s a good price for people who want to support me and to be honest I don’t want to overwhelm myself with custom things for each individual Patreon because that will take so much time and that defeats the purpose of me becoming a RUclipsr/Mangaka. I appreciate your comments though!
Dude your information you been giving us all these past few videos have been amazing and your really already one of my favorites new RUclipsrs I came across in 2023✨❤️✨❤️ Your growth is nothing but amazing I would love to hopefully colab with you one day ❤️✨🔥🌈
My GF was 10th place in the SMA contest. (22' Halo) She also won 2 other SMAs in the past. Her name is Rori Fondevilla.
I'm proud of her lololol
Incredible my friend!
SICK INTRO WTF THOUGHT IT WAS A TRAILER OF A MOVIE! SUBSCRIBED!!
CONGRATS ON 10K MAN!!!!!!!!
Dude your art is amazing, I hope we get a lot of cool art styled vids
Thanks for watching!
You got this Kuya 👍
Thanks!
It's not everyday I get to watch a star before they rise. The future is bright
you are really helping me out with my manga creation process. Your content is very informative, and I am getting tons of inspiration to work on my manga. I hope that we both grow and are successful! 😁
Edit: Just finished the vid, and I loved your dance at the end!😂 You are very entertaining!
First: Great video 👌. Second: OMG the amount of talent in these competitions is insane, you really MUST BE the BEST to have a chance at winning
nice one my bro 😉👍💯 this is so informative, specially for the beginners or someone who is thinking of making manga and being a mangaka, i love the way that it's easy to understand and the video editing skill is so insane 😊 and for my suggestion for a future video, maybe make a 3 page manga with a mangaka friend and make the people vote which they like more, maybe it can become a whole manga in the future...😉 keep it up and God bless you...
Thanks for the feedback!
This man is going places
NOTIFICATION GANG ❤️❤️❤️
Love your style of video making, it's almost like a combination of Gigguk's and Joey's styles but more film like
Haha thanks for even mentioning my video-making style in the same sentence as Garnt and Joey! Cheers!
You earned yourself a sub!
Aaaahhhhh!!! Thank you, Kusunagi-San for your videos❤❤❤❤ I have a huge idea inside of me as for trying to begin my own manga myself…it started after graduating high school years ago as I started writing each story…since 2005 I started a huge story idea which from my own life ntrigued me to create a one shot manga…for me a couple of years ago I finally started getting my ideas down into notebook paper before drawing the storyboards…Anyways…Thank you so much for your videos…Oh! PS: My all time favorite mangaka has and always been Adachi Mitsuru❤❤❤❤
beautiful inking
