I'm reading this.
I got a few volumes into it before but stopped. Reading a couple chapters a day will probably go down easier.

Thank you for posting.

I don't know what this manga is about, but I've wanted to read something by the Shigurui author for a long time.
>>
>>282015105
This series is fascinating. It's every bit as violent as Shigurui, but it's basically a cartoon. Not in a bad way, it's really wholesome.
>>
>>282007407
this really inspired muramasa huh
>>
>>282007697
>>282007720
>>282007746
Damn, i remember this series now, it got an anime adaptation, this scene is ingrained in my brain

gross
>>
>>282009594
Oh man this book fucking ruled, I was intrigued by the weird contradiction of fashy aesthetics with a story that has an undercurrent of rejecting fashistic principals and worldviews which seems to be a running thing with the author. Stayed for the rad ass sentai fights though
>>
damn it's been years, is it fully translated?
>>
>>282008860
he looks like a chud

>>282019172
It finally got a full translation a few years back. I had given up hope. It was so great to finally read it to the end. I just found out the alternate version Exoskull Zero is being translated as well. Only two volumes left! I'm shocked at that and Seven Ninja of the Imperial Guard both getting translations after all this time. I saw one page of the latter with Harara(?) slicing a man's head off with his dick and knew I had to read it someday.
>>282018500
It was jarring going from Apocalypse Zero, to Demon Order Garan, to Shigurui, but by the end I realized he has a very consistent worldview and sense of morality in his works that don't neatly fit into any boxes or binaries. He just draws cool shit and depicts things as he sees them, then his characters will react to the world around them according to their beliefs. It makes for interesting stories.
>>
yeah it's nice to see exoskull finally being translated
>>
>>282017822
Yup, more than a little bit.
>>
>>282009240
Just let him die already Jesus. Doubt he wants to live after his gf die and raped by big mom

this was really cool
I look forward to more
>>
>>282007697
Wait we watched this last christmas i think
>>
>>282008147
So he is also Horie?
>>
>>282015105
Nothing he's created even comes close to Shigurui
>>
>>282009240
>>282009275
This whole section, plus Horie later wanting to give the guy a proper burial, is so fucking wild to me. It's kinda funny, but also weirdly touching. There's also the author's text at the end of volume 1 where he says the series is about finding happiness and staying true to yourself even in dire situations.
Never read this manga all the way through, but everytime I see it I just get intrigued by it.
>>
>>282030476
Apocalypse Zero was a tongue-in-cheek but also psychotic shonen that incorporates guilt for Japanese WW2 atrocities that ran at the same time as Slam Dunk. I don't think I've ever really gotten what it was going for enough to judge it artistically. You can definitely see the soul of the guy that tore himself up to make Shigurui though.

Busterkek should commit suicide in my opinion, hes already bald and all

Its insane how this is happening irl today...

>Well thats good
Genuinely, what did she mean by this?

I remember author and assistant notes being completely deranged. Looking forward to it.
Also, while being kind of ass, the ova had some top notch soundtrack
Tactical Evil Megumi gotta be my favorite track

Got back into reading the new translated chapters and Exoskull Zero is really good too. Cant wait for that translation to be finished.

Cute fight scenery. Feels like something you could see in a pixel game arena

Fucks hard

>>282009439
Yamaguchi's style is so fucking cool. I might like his more exaggerated fight styles here even more than his shigurui action shots.

This song still blows me away. It captures the emotions of the series so well.

This is a statement in the same vein as someone calling vagabond inoue's best work. Naive if not ignorant imho.

Was morbidly fascinated by this years ago when b-movie site reviewed the OVA.

Ended up picking up most of the tankoban while studying in Japan, but never got around to translate/reading it.

It was so long ago, I wanted to translate "tactical evil" as "epic troll".

The title of the manga itself is a reference to (or perhaps a parody of) a book from 1870s, Encouragement of Learning (Gakumon no Susume).
