In the moment it's really one of my favourites. It's gonna be one of the first mangas I would buy on the spot, even in Japanese. I absolutely loved the characters, the story and the art! Everything was super perfect, like, I couldn't even go to the next page like normal, when I was finished. I needed to look at the art more thoroughly, because it was just so great, I needed to look at every detail. Every single panel, expression, word... ah, it felt really realistic.
Does anyone know if there are really such universities where they offer a graphic course like this? I mean comics, digital design, storyboards, etc.
I've never heard of such outside of Japan.
I think once I see one of those schools in a documental though don't know if it were in Japan the only thing I remember is that it was in an oriental country
Yeah. It's called Sequential Arts. They teach storyboarding, comics, character design and stuff like that. I think the most famous one in US is SCAD. There's also some other schools in europe (like Animation Workshop, under Graphic Storytelling name I think?)
Yeah, I already knew that there are art universities and I've already looked into them, but I've never heard of a university that has a course specially for comics.
I've already heard of the "manga university" in Tokyo but never of something like that existing overseas.
Thanks anon for the information! You really helped me out with it! I'll check scad out.
I forgot, there's also MCAD. :D
Urgh I feel so guilty for reading this and even more guilty for liking it ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
But honestly, isn't yankee-kun still a high school boy? Wearing his gakuran, uwa
Also, what's up with all those new yaoi with these super hot but kinda creepy semes hohoho!
It changed much since last summer, there's so much new good stuff with amaaaazing art styles
For me a good art style is number one priority when reading a comic and, as anyone can see, in this case it's not exactly about pretty faces. But!! that's in no way negative. As an artist myself I can see this art style's good points. And it's really the fast action scenes and the extreme expression (especially the boy's in vol 6-7 against nesuwhatevs).
At first, I was a bit prepossessed against the art style and it's wide big eyes (particularly frost boy and his sis/love interest ....) but it kinda grow on me (not the eyes but the rest, I still can't stand them' big eyes). But honestly, this webtoons strength is NOT the art style. It it's story. Which I completely got hooked on and read in one day. The characters are great too. and oh, oh man, those plot twists!!!
Even though this story has quite a few... well, I'm not sure if I should call them "plot holes", since it's just so much new stuff and constructs at once which didn't get explained yet, which lets the story look a tad weak in the end, but I guess I just need to read the sequel first....
all in all I recommend this story to readers who like espers/dimensions/amazing fighting scenes/tenseness/anti-government-movements/social criticism, etc.
it kind of inspired me, too.
Honestly I can't respect this scanlation group enough for translating Madarame Hiro's mangas. It's really well done. After translating one manga myself, I can't imagine how long this one would take. Cleaning, translating, typesetting, proofreading... And to keep up with the fonts and sizes... phew, it's already hard just reading them. I'm already struggling to keep up with all this chaotic text in this mangaka's stories.
