From what I've read so far: 1. Goodnight Punpun 2. Solanin 3. Girl on the Shore Girl on the shore I find the worst but don't think its as bad as people say
@@ForceDeth76 I don't think girl on the shore is bad at all. The oversexualisation is important for the plot and I think the behavior of the characters is very fitting for the setting. I also really like the ending
Goodnight punpun just hits different, its easily my personal favorite but I don't recommend to many people because of how depressing it is, it feels way to real
sorry to ask but does it has a hard english language? I mean if there are a lot more difficult words just yk bc I'm a German but I want to order it on english but idk I guess when I'm disstracted by translating words it would be not thaaaat intensive (you know what I mean?)
@@temcie2788 I'm czech and I didn't need to search up any words, it depends on your level of english but judging from the way you type, I'd say it'd be fine.
Punpun had me so fucked up inside, I think it has had a lasting depressing effect on me, cause goddam do I feel like shit even more often than before. Still one of my absolute favorites up there with Made in Abyss, Steel Ball Run, Berserk, Chainsaw Man and Akira.
@@miloradbulatovic9711 It's certainly not for everyone, but I would definitely say yes, the world building is very well done, the art (especially the backgrounds) is gorgeous, the characters are very compelling with a villain (who's not even the final one) who's up there with Griffith in terms of impact and presence, and it actually feels like (even though I'm confident it won't happen) the main character could actually die if the author felt like it because the dangers of the world are actually that dangerous. It's also one of those excellent manga where I would say the anime actually surpasses it, especially considering the music.
i think girl on the shore connects to the teenage / younger / young people changing into adults. as you are older and kinda past this stage, but the teens who read it, i feel it’s better suited to that demographic
i agree w you %100! i read this book when i was 16ish & i absolutely loved the manga, i loved the simplicity covered w teenage angst in it & i find that the characters were not likeable enough however they were young, immature & stupid which i believed were really real lol
Punpun is probably his Iconic work, cause most his character design kinda blend with each other on how realistic they are, besides from Punpun himself.
I liked Dead dead alot, read 7 volumes and so far Inio Asano is really kicking it off with one of his best. I haven't read what a wonderful world and A girl on the shore, but after hearing your input on What a wonderful world I'll hope for some way to pick this up! Thanks for the video m8
i loved a girl on the shore and really liked the characters, specially Isobe tho. idk, i thought their struggles were kinda relatable and i like to see a casual sex relationship being represented like that.
Love Ontan's brother. He cracks me up every time he's in play - the character design is just great. Pumped to get my hands on the next volume in a few days
@@ThePromGIk this video is older but the anime is on Crunchyroll rn and I haven't heard enough people talk about the adaptation and want to hear your thoughts on it in a video sometime! Even though you mainly talk about mangas
I really want to get into some inio asano probably want to get into goodnight punpun. I heard it was sad as shit. Great to see it's on your second spot. I never really knew the artwork from asano was this beautiful. Great video bro.
I swear this video made me very happy. I´ve read a lot of Manga and i would say that my favourite one is Oyasumi Pun Pun. Last week i buyed the 3 first volumes of Dead Dead Demons because i wanted to give it a try and now i´m just waiting for them to arrive. Totally Hyped!!!!
I just started reading Inio Asano's manga and I started with pun pun and loved it. I should have watched this first because my next purchase was girl on the shore and it's not the worst manga I have ever read but I didn't like it. Wish I would've bought Solanin instead. Loved your video and now I'm going to start looking for Dead Dead Demon’s Dedededed.
Love this format ranking mangakas works. Would be super interesting seeing a video on this on osamu tezuka.....though i suspect it wouldnt be short 😂 Not so many mangatubers talk about and have read as much osamu tezuka as you, and its a shame.
A Tezuka ranking is definitely on the way, though I can’t promise when it’ll come out. At this point I’ve read 33/38 of his English physical series, so once I read the rest I can start recording 🙌
@ThePromG Oh awesome! Excited and looking forward to it!!! 33/38 is impressive. Will definitely be worth the wait. But also sad when there is nothing left for you to read by him 😅
I decided to start reading through all his manga recently as well. I read A Girl on the Shore like 4 years ago and it became one of my favorite books. I reread it again about a month ago and still loved it. I understand why people don't like it, but I personally related to a lot of the things in it which is probably why I like it so much. Plus it introduced me to Happy End which is a major plus! I'm about a quarter through Solanin right now and I'm enjoying it so far. I'm graduating from uni in June and am experiencing a lot of the same things so I think there couldn't be a better time for me to read it.
I also read Solanin when I was in university, and it definitely hit hard then 😅 As for Girl on the Shore, I do hear that a lot of people relate to the story and that’s why they like it. Totally valid, seems to be a love it or hate it manga depending on your life experience!
i really dont like the bad rep that girl on the shore gets bc to say its meaningless is just bad interpretation. i feel like to me i could connect with how he was feeling through the most part.
Very excited for the final volumes of dead dead demon's to get realized physically in english. I hope it starts to gain more notoriety once its more available. Its absolutely my favorite manga of all time. Inio Asano is just so good, making us nitpick between incredible works
7. The girl on the shore 6. Nijigahara Holograph 5. What a wonderful world 4. Downfall 3. Solanin 2. Goodnight PunPun 1. Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction
@@gohanjr5748 no specific order, each series is it’s own individual story with its own themes. I always recommend reading punpun or solanin first as those are two of asano’s most prolific works, and they are also complete so don’t have to wait for chapters
I absolutely did not enjoy Oyasumi PunPun. It provides the reflection that I was not prepared for, and it changed me. It put me in a dark place. It is no doubt the best slice of life I've ever read. it hurted me deeply. But that's the only way I can compliment this piece of art. It's wasn't fun for me. It's a fucking masterpiece.
I read DDDD first and thats what got me into Inio Asano. Really love his artwork and narrative. However, I've read Goodnight PunPun and just started vol 2 and my goodness it's so bleak and depressing. Very good read but think I might have to take a break from it cos I felt so down today after reading it.
Goodnight Pun-Pun . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Solanin . . . . . . . . . . Girl on the Shore . Holograph Downfall What a wonderful World none of these mangas are remotely bad. What a wonderful world just didn't hit me in the feels as much as the other. Goodnight Pun-Pun is god tier, I don't think there's ever been anything like it that's this long in manga while incorporating slice-of-life and have constant growth in the characters, mainly punpun who tragically goes downhill every time we see him. Solanin is just a fantastic relatable story, I read it in high school towards the end and it really hit me. Girl on the shore always suprised me, the male character interested me because I was personally in that mindset he was in throughout the story including this want to be some type of punisher. The female is interesting too, what I loved is all the characters were shitty people, all laying in the gray area. Also the male character just mentally getting healthier after meeting the girl in the picture showed how young and immature he really is and I think it works. Holograph really interested me, it's the manga that probably got me thinking the most about it after finishing from Asano's library. There's still stuff I don't get haha. Downfall is great! What I love about is that it's the least dramatic out of all the other mangas, it's more realistic, even Solanin had some elements that didn't feel real, it's short and straight to the point. What a wonderful world's wacky at times yet brutal moments really make it stand out but it ultimately isn't Isano's peak story telling.
Goodnight punpun simply changed my perspective it made me want to read more manga and I understand the people who say it’s a series that you only read it once but I would probably read it again because of the feeling I have after reading it. It’s very depressing and brings a feeling of dread while reading it but at the end it feels like a weight lifting for punpun and for me it’s very euphoric at the end at least IMO.
Thanks for checking out the video! How would you rank Inio Asano's manga?
From what I've read so far:
1. Goodnight Punpun
2. Solanin
3. Girl on the Shore
Girl on the shore I find the worst but don't think its as bad as people say

Have you read Fire Punch?

My top 3 (in no specific order) are Solanin, Goodnight PunPun, and DDDD. Didnt know we had similar taste! :D
As long as GOTS isn’t in your top 3 we good 🤝

Well, you’ll surely be happy to know that DDDD just got an anime adaptation announced. It’s also my favorite work from him, so I’m extremely excited.
The anime is out!!! Its so good!!
Great video brother! 🤘

for me
1. punpun 10/10
2. holograph 8/10
3. wonderful world 7/10
4. solanin 7/10
5. dedede 5/10
Does Downfall and the girl on the shore have the same vibe?
Eh not really. Girl on the shore is a lot note edgy whereas Downfall feels a lot more realistic and sad
I read DDDD first and thats what got me into Inio Asano. Really love his artwork and narrative.
However, I've read Goodnight PunPun and just started vol 2 and my goodness it's so bleak and depressing. Very good read but think I might have to take a break from it cos I felt so down today after reading it.

Definitley need to reed solanin, I don't know why I haven't yet it sounds like exactly what I need
Hey, do you think it's easier to find all the Gantz singles completed? Or should I look for each one individually?
I’m collecting them in the omnibus, they have them all on Amazon Prime 🤷🏽♂️
Dedede has to be the best and that's hard to say cause he's a great writer.
It's funny because in france we have also Hikari no Machi and Sekai no Owari to Yoakemae that where translated and got a phisycal release.
Can You Give a Bleach Manga Reading Update?
Yes
I've only read Solanin and Goodnight Punpun. While I thought the former was decent at best, the latter was amazing.
You gotta check out Dead Dead Demons!
Just finished reading DDDD, and I don't think it tops Ozanari-kun in my book, even though it used many good things from it.
If you happen to read opus by satoshi kon, whitch manga should i buy opus or downfall
I liked Downfall better
Whats the manga in the background with the colorful cover
It's left center of the video at 0:22
If GOTS is in your favorites consider urself an opp
So far I have read Solanin and Girl on a shore not sure what to read next
Punpun is my favorite, but DDDD is slowly replacing that with what’s happening in the story at the moment
I still need to read Dead Dead Demons and Nijigahara Holograph
Yo hey prom
Yooooooo
You must have a bad taste for not liking Girl on the shore
Nah I’m just an adult
