This manga had me crying from all the timeskips, like it is hard enough to deal with the constant jumping around from Kenji's past to his present, but this madman had 3 freaking timeskips, all shown within the first chapter. Naoki Urasawa is a mad genius, even though I wasn't able to keep up with the 4 time periods.
I said this before but I really like the revelation that Friend was always Katsumata. Fukubei did have an identity issue but he was somebody. Somebody with dreams and aspirations. Katsumata, from what little we know of him seems extremely codependent and stunted. Despite his achievements, he still fixates on childhood resentment. It's the fact that he props up childhood wonder and weaponizes it makes him extremely warped. I genuinely believe if he had never been "friends" with Fukubei that he would turned out extremely different. Katsumata is the imitation of the imitation. Those are who inherit the world.
As I read through 20th Century Boys, I felt that Friend was a perfect example of an antagonist who didn’t necessarily need a whole backstory to become effective. His actions throughout the story made him enough of a menace to society that stopping him was the only thing that really mattered. Granted, this is undermined by the whole childhood prophecy connection which, for the most part of the story, really did feel like the one thing that would give insight into who Friend was. However, at the same time, the story also made investigating the childhood prophecy seem like the one thing that could help the main cast defeat Friend, so the drive to find out who he was and stop him kind of came packaged together, even if these two things are separate. Defeating Friend and finding out who he may have been intertwined for most of the story, and yet, at the end of the day, the one thing that actually matters is that Friend is stopped, not that the main cast necessarily identifies him. I’m not necessarily saying that finding out who Friend is isn’t an important part of the story; it is, and it’s far and away the most intriguing part of the story that drives the reader to keep reading, but I’m of the opinion that Friend’s identity isn’t necessarily a critical part of bringing him down, which was the goal of the story for which finding out his identity is a fascinating component.
really good video, read this manga about 3 years ago but it didn't exactly land well for me but I can always appreciate the amount of detail and straight up insanity that was put into the making of this series
I mean it’s stated in 21st Century Boys that Fukubei indeed died in the science classroom and that Katsumata took his personality since then. Of course this creates problems with regards to Friend’s initial death by gunshot in the science room, maybe he had a body double? I feel like Urasawa created a story too large with too short time constraints that these kind of plot holes were inevitable.
@TheOnlyOne719 yeah I would say the same thing but Urasawa created a major plot hole when Manjoume caught on that the resurrected friend was acting differently. I guess this could be chalked up to Katsumata switching personas.
@@coldsteel7115 Considering in real life how severe some cases of Identity illnesses can be, straight up memory blocking personality from another personality. It can seems it very easy for a person with such illness to act different even tho its the same person that we talk about.
I don’t think it’s unbelievable to believe he survived the gunshot and faked his death. I mean on the bloody New Year’s Eve he literally faked his death by falling off a tall building and still moments later was standing on that expo robot infront of Kenji. So faking his death a second time isn’t out of the ordinary for Katasumata, especially since he’s firmly established as trickster throughout the whole series
Great character with a deeply unsatisfying reveal, but at the same time It didn’t bother me cause I cared more about what he represented than who he was
I think the point of Friend's identity is that the mystery ultimately can't end in a way that would be satisfying to a traditional mystery story. If it was someone the group knew, then the second they find out who it isn't, you'd know who it is before any satisfying reveal. So Friend has to be someone unknown, forgotten like Collins. But, if Kenji had pulled off the mask and it was some stranger, or he remebers and we get a flashback it would be also be unsatisfying. I don't have a big ultimate wrap up and wouldn't dare to pretend I can create a better ending to the mystery. Just that I think the twist was good, but might have been more satisfying if we learned this before skipping to 2014. At least I would've enjoyed it more
Last year, i dont even remenber how, i found a manga called Banbino! by Tetsuji Sekiya its a cooking manga, the main character is Bambi that just finished cooking school. I never read something so fast and enthusiastically in my life. Its so underrated, most people would not read a cooking manga but this is really epic and stressing in the best way possible, feels like a sports manga, I started reading bambino! at the same time i started working in the kitchen just like the main caracter and you can really see how much the autor as studied cooking and how a kitchen works. The art is really imersive and you really feel that the "moviment" is something. (Almost looks like action manga) Its about cooking but its also about art and how it changes you and the world. I really feel that this is not a byas pick this is a amazing manga that needs to be known more. Please bring Bambino! to the world. *Sorry if my English is not great
Even after a year since I’ve read it, it still has mysteries I can’t understand. Good job for making “Friend” easier to understand, now I need to get back into the manga myself
Friend really seems like an interesting antagonist and reminds me of one of my favorites. Seonghyun Moon from the webtoon series Dr Frost. The character is basically a fusion of Johan and Friend.
Friend is a friend you don't usually hang out with as a friend but still would consider as a friend. Also that BBC news break was so great holy hell lmao 🤣
i agree with your take but it ain't noteworthy imo , most villains in media have anti-christ symbolism so unless a character has very heavy christian symbolism , i don't think it's noteworthy
I know there’s a discourse over the whole ‘Katsumata was friend all along, Fukube died as a child’ thing that was spelt out in the Perfect editions. But a tiny detail that I found really interesting that proves to me that that was always the intention is, after the reunion when Kenji takes ‘Fukube’ to his apartment with his fake kids, Kenji notices a CD on the table of the song ‘20th century boy’ The only other person that song is significant to besides Kenji is Katsumata, the very song that he heard on the roof. It’s a very tiny detail, but to me it really makes the difference
In some way everyone who has read the story and loves the story knows that it can never get an anime adaptation, its so fucking sad, not that it needs an anime to validate its existence, but man you know if it gets adapted then the first two seasons will not have anything happen and people who don't know about it will drop it
Naoki makes the best endings, people say monster's ending was anticlimactic and similar things about his other works but it couldn't be further from the truth he makes the best conclusions by far i am talking for all of his works every single one, if one thinks otherwise i would urge you to think or look online and maybe even reread the series and you'll know why he makes the greatest ends.
I swear I read the manga in 2021, but godamm I don't remember shii, like, I know some things, but if you asked me anything I couldn't tell you. Thx for the vid
At a certain point, after so many twists, and so much intrigue and betrayal and amazing character developments, in the end, when it all was laid out and the final curtain was drawn part of me would have been very happy if Friend were a fucking Alien the entire time who just did not understand that human children could be different from adults. It would even fit part of the theme of how much people change, for better and for worse at the same time, as they grow up. We don't always get better or worse when we get older, but we always change, and an Unchanging Entity who doesn't understand that being behind everything including the inception of psychic powers in humans would have made perfect sense. At least I have Billy Bat.
The reveal of (SPOILER ALERT) the first friend being Fubukei Hattori made sense to me. But I was disappointed with the 2nd Friend (Katsumata), because his motivation felt trivial.
They are the same person, fukubei died in middle school or elementary and katsumata lived as fukubei/ friend through a split personality, when he was killed by yatsune in the classroom he never died but it was the metaphorical death of the fukubei personality
i remember reading this manga up to somewhere past the halfway point and dropping it- was too drawn out for me personally but i did enjoy it until then
As a die hard fan of Monster, 20th Century Boys never struck me as a piece deserving to be put on the same pedestal as Monster. It felt like an over the top, pulp story cashing in on appeal of mystery and suspense. Twists and turns are all there (something Urasawa is skilled at writing, of course) but that's pretty much all what it offers. Too many unnecessary elements introduced, tries to be many things at once yet leaves more loose ends than it's possible to keep track of.
Yeah I don’t think it holds up to Monster at all, it’s a very good Manga but it goes on a bit too long and gets a bit convoluted at times, it could’ve just been a regular but wider scale mystery without adding too much and it would’ve been good.
I personally think fukube died as a kid and katsumata was even more neglected than him with an identity crisis And therefore took up fukubes mantle and identity in adulthood And the whole story is just fluctuations between these personalities And there was no death from the gunshot In the later half the true "Katsumata" is fully realised Wish we could call up Urasawa sometimes.
This seems to be the most likely option. It would also explain Kanna’s psychic abilities as Katsumata is the only Friend to be shown with actual psychic powers. It’s easy to then assume that Kanna is actually Katsumata’s daughter and the “medicine” explanation he gives could’ve been a lie he told inorder to further convince himself that he’s Fukube, since Fukube lied about his abilities. It would also make sense for Katsumata to have stolen Fukube’s identity at the time, since that was right after the rumors of Katsumata’s death started to spread. Plus, it fits thematic motif of Katsumata taking the identity/appearance of the “friends.” He did this with Sadakiyo by wearing his mask, so it’s not unfounded that he would do the same with Fukube.

3 timeskips and the story progresses through the perspective of at least 6-7 characters 😭

The author in my opinion knwos how to star manga beautifully. However whenever he tries to end the manga, its usually a miss for me most of the time
Apparently, Urasawa has a tendency to start a new story at the tail end of his previous one. That could explain the rough endings.
Naoki makes the best endings, people say monster's ending was anticlimactic and similar things about his other works but it couldn't be further from the truth he makes the best conclusions by far i am talking for all of his works every single one, if one thinks otherwise i would urge you to think or look online and maybe even reread the series and you'll know why he makes the greatest ends.

GUYS THIS STORY’S STRAIGHT UP ABOUT THE ANTICHRIST.

And therefore took up fukubes mantle and identity in adulthood
And the whole story is just fluctuations between these personalities
And there was no death from the gunshot

Wish we could call up Urasawa sometimes.
