I could certainly see how, with only the in-game sprites and the box-art, the look of this manga formed. They actually did a solid job converting it into manga form and utilising it in both comedy and action scenes (the Screw Attack artwork looked particularly awesome). I was aware of the panel at 0:53 but had never seen the rest. The comical tone is funny to think about given Metroid nowadays but this manga seemed to serve as a fun guide of the game for players and was a joy to see here. Great job narrating it!
I've been looking forward to this! I love these early nes comics. The way they adapt parts of the game is excellent. The music and editing really adds to the experience, too. Thanks for doing this one! Looking forward to more!
This is part of a series slot about 30 books covering many different games. The last one of this series I did was kid Icarus and I know I’ll be back again someday
"Legend says that to this very day none really knows who or what is Samus Aran: Bounty hunter, space adventurer, fierce warrior? The only certainty is that when Samus it's on a mission, you can be sure to see an epic tale!"
6:33 That image does a pretty good job at conveying how the Rio AI works. They swoop down, and if they reach the ground will continue traveling horizontally, but if Samus jumps they will swoop back up. While not the only foe on the NES to react directly to the player's actions, as Mega Man's robot masters often do the same, and it can lead to moments like the Crash Man Dance or Skull Man Staring Contest, this was the first enemy I actually noticed this kind of behavior in, and it was simple enough to master that I felt like I was controlling Samus as well as the Rios with my controller.
Love the music and commercials tied in with the narration and such high quality scans of the pages. This channel is always the highest level of quality
It could probably done via a flipbook effect in the manga. Have parts of no suit Samus drawn on the margins at the side, and if you flip through the pages quick enough, it'll show a more or less complete, combined drawing of her, emulating the speedrun reference.
I'm quite convinced that Metroid (and some other series) only took off as hard as it did, establishing a long lasting franchise, due to 'the west' treating it more seriously than Japan did. I have seen a few things from there covering the original Metroid and virtually everything was goofy and light like this.
One thing I love about the Wanpaku comics Famicom game manga(s)(like Metroid, Super Mario bros 2, and the legend of Zelda) is that while they’re all super awesome mangas they’re also basically guides for the games too! Awesome video !

I was expecting the ending to he a repeat of samus with 2 girls and the word end just like the promo vid at tye start but with Samus without the helmet. I wonder if the mangaka didn't know Samus is a girl or if they didn't want to spoil ir.
I love these vids. Thank you for presenting these old weird mangas that we'll never otherwise have any chance of reading or understanding. They're fun little stories, and the art is always greatness from a bygone era.
I remember reading somewhere that when creating "Metroid" Satoru Okada, Hiromi Kiyotake and Yoshioka Sakamoto were heavily influenced by Masami Yuuki's "Birdy The Mighty" manga from 1985, which likewise featured a female action protagonist and a pulp sci-fi/retro future aesthetic. Supposedly there's a magazine interview out there which confirms all this, but I've never been able to track it down. It's an interesting footnote if it's true, though.
@@GTV-Japan This whole thing (and most of the things you cover) really makes me miss when these characters were barely established and anything was possible. It really was a different time
Everybody knows Samus is a blooby gelatinous thing, Metroid is the manly space bounty hunter. Its one of those cultural osmosis things every ody knows, like Zelda is the green guy and Link is the princess or Darh Vader killed Luke's father.
9:34, nice to see this in HD. 10:37, Barrier, Varia..whatever. It's cool is what it is. 12:30, cue his scream from Metroid Fusion. 18:36, I imagine this is what it sounds like. Kinda like War Games which is what I think they were going for tbh. The remixes in this video are great. Shows how legendary the original tunes are.

I love the missiles when Samus first picks them up Zoooom Zoooom :D Is it me or does Samus have the ability to swap beams in this universe, despite not being able to in NES? also RIP toys R Us... They were great for SNES games growing up.
@@GTV-Japan or based on a dream :) I mean they had 3 ice beams as a compromise... I don't think the FDS had the ram for swapping around beams, you'd need a Mario 3 mapper for that oddly
@@GTV-Japan the data for it is there, but the processing power for a swap state register for beams wasn't there. The MMC3 could hold that in RAM instead of its scroll register.
Ahh I see. But I guess I’m finding that with the ability to switch missiles and beams. Honestly I was so busy last month I didn’t bother to go back and play Metroid that long. Just around brinstar for a while.
That was fantastic. Never ever new there was a promotional manga tie in with the game, but of course there was! Where did you get the great arranged music soundtrack?
18:21 I love how you got Mother Brain to speak. I’m pretty sure this was achieved on a Mac as there MIGHT have been a voice similar to that? Forgive me-it has been so long since I have actually used Mac OSX, and I might be a bit out of loop.
@@GTV-Japan I see. Thanks for the clarification. Just be thankful you didn’t use Microsoft Sam, let alone SAM from the Commodore 64 (there’s even an emulator of it online if you want to try it out).
@@GTV-Japan Great job putting it together, it was a fun vid as always. These are always a blast to watch! Not sure whats next but Im always looking forward to it! :)
@@GTV-Japan Wow, youre keeping busy! lol The Hogan ones are fun and I never say no to more Megaman! Not sure Ive ever heard Borgman before or if I have I certainly dont remember it but Im very intrigued. :)
Yeah, Metroid doesn't really work as a wacky kids manga like Mario or Kid Icarus. Even when playing this game as a kid in the 80', I knew this universe had a darker tone.
Samus: acquires Varia Suit Moments later "Any more heat would scorch our hero inside that protective suit of armor" I know this manga is plenty old, but not seeing the Varia Suit be able to protect Samus from extreme temperatures is so bizarre. That wasn't established until Super Metroid, but it does make the Varia suit in the original Metroid feel anti-climatic these days. On another note, the lack of color is a mixed bag in regards to the Varia Suit's appearance. On one hand, the Varia Suit basically looks no different from the Power Suit now. On the other hand, you don't have to see Samus run around in a pink suit with this manga. Heck, it allows for me to instead imagine it as an orange version of the Power Suit (like the initial Varia Suit in Zero Mission). Yes, I know the Power Suit was originally intended to be orange. However, I'm used to the Power Suit being yellow. Which has been the case with this series since the official artwork for The Return of Samus (that game basically cleaned up the design and made it primarily yellow). The only exceptions since then have been the Fusion Suit (basically the Power Suit stripped down) and in Metroid Dread.
So funny thing about the lack of color in the comic. It was the lack of color on the Gameboy thst led to the Varia Suit's now iconic design. The Samus pictured on the box art for the Gameboy game is the Varia Suit for anyone wondering. And then as you mentioned, Super Metroid added a third suit, the Gravity Suit and changed the functions. The Varia Suit protected you from heat but not lava. The Gravity Suit let you move normally under water and protected you from lava. The Varia suit had big shoulders and orange accents. The Gravity Suit was the same but got purplish accents instead of orange.
I get this is meant to be a comedy manga, but I still find it a shame it tries to be so cutesy. The artist or artists don't really get to truly shine most of the time. Wish there was more moments like the neat Chozo statue at 7:44. Or panels at 6:40, 10:10, and 10:58. Not to mention the kinda impressive moment at 18:58.
Wanpakku seems to like to insert a weird crossover here and there, even in SMB2J/Lost World comic drawn by Yukio Sawada. (yes, THE Yukio Sawada from Super Mario-kun)
I love that manga, I’m glad I own all three volumes and had the chance to read the chapters not included in a collected volume! I’ve even read the two chapters of his SMB3 manga
@@GTV-Japan yeah Yukio Sawada’s SMB3 was never collected in a volume since it only had two chapters, I was lucky and able to snag some scans from a friend that he printed at a local children’s library/museum! So I have scans of the 6 SMB2 chapters not recorded in a volume and the 2 chapters of SMB3(not recorded in a collected volume) In the third to last chapter of the SMB2 manga, Mario accidentally hatches a koopaling in the hallway leading to bowser’s room! So a nice lead into the SMB3, and the final chapter of the SMB2 manga has Mario merging with all the friends he met along the way to defeat Fake bowser! I also love the stuff Yukio Sawada predicted in the SMb2 manga like a flying cape, baby Mario, baby bowser, etc… The two chapters of the SMB3 manga goes like this: Chapter 1: mario learns about the koopalings stealing the magic wands and transforming the kings into animals so him and Luigi set out on their adventure, and Goomba(their friend from the SMB2 manga) gets powered up by bowser becoming paragoomba (this also mind controls goomba) while Mario is being attacked by Goomba and his babies, a hammer bro comes out and attacks mario but mario dodges and hits the hammer bro with a fire ball causing the HB to exploded and one of its hammer’s hits a ? Block revealing a super leaf mario grabs the leaf and becomes Raccoon mario and the first chapter ends. Chapter 2: Mario defeats the mini goombas and paragoomba with a tail whip, him and Luigi head to the first fortress where they meet boom-boom, Luigi feeds Mario a hammer which causes Mario’s tail to take the shape of a hammer letting Mario defeat boom-boom. On their way out of the fortress Mario receives a letter from princess peach that contains a P wing. ParaGoomba shows back up and Mario uses the P wing on Paragoomba which purifies the Goomba from bowser’s control and ends the wanapaku comic version of SMB3!

@@GTV-Japan okie I'm ok if you don't want to do it since there manga Metroid, MegaMan Zelda and Mario so I thought of Castlevania,( I tried to find a manga version of the original Castlevania of Simon Belmont adventure and this was the only one I found
I love how this manga has Samus with these women in bikinis posing with her, and Samus saying she loves it because it's kinda implying Samus is a lesbian, also I don't think she's shown attraction to a guy besides a non-canon guy from a Super Metroid comic from Nintendo Power.

I’ll take a look! But I can’t promise anything
@@GTV-Japan okie I'm ok if you don't want to do it since there manga Metroid, MegaMan Zelda and Mario so I thought of Castlevania,( I tried to find a manga version of the original Castlevania of Simon Belmont adventure and this was the only one I found
Sure. I just need to get a copy and look at it first
@@GTV-Japan 👍 okie dokie
I love how this manga has Samus with these women in bikinis posing with her, and Samus saying she loves it because it's kinda implying Samus is a lesbian, also I don't think she's shown attraction to a guy besides a non-canon guy from a Super Metroid comic from Nintendo Power.
No. It’s just meant to be funny.
i love this videos, get a story from a manga that never come to america,
Howard where were you??
@@GTV-Japan México
No. I mean Howard Lincoln the chief at Nintendo in the US. I could ask where was Gus Rodriguez at, but CN didn’t get stared until a few years after the USA did
@@GTV-Japan lol,

CG.
