>Umaruchan was based on the authors IRL sister who fell ill and died during the production of the mangauh. Merry Christmas.
>>284647874Someone post the Umaru abuse pics
That's touching
>>284647874Bro I thought this was a fucking troll thread fucking hell oh God no.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaHCwyLNQ-Y
>>284648257Yeah and no wonder the ending of the manga was so poignant and it had so much genuine feeling in it.
>>284647874Never saw nor read this manga, but man, that fucking sucks hard.Life can really be a fucking bitch sometimes.
love this anime :3in my tops
>>284647874I never liked her but this is just sad...I'm sorry Umaru for calling you a retard
>>284647874ok, Reddit. Thanks for pop culture moment.
>>284647874>>284648291Last chapter hits different now…
>>284649525fugg
>>284647874Fine, I will read your manga.
>>284647874I now feel bad for hateposting on Umaru-chan..
>>284647874Sad to hear, he created something wonderful, Umaru is part of the zeitgeist.
>>284649525Fuck.
>>284649307She lives on in all of us.
>>284649525Ebin
>>284647874I'll think of her when I don my Umaru rob, transforming me into an annoying jackass. I now wonder if that's how his sister really was. Surely she's sippin kora and eating chippusu in the great geimu in the sky.
>>284649525
>>284647874He honored her. Rest easy.
This legitimately makes me really sad, I hope she's enjoying lots of geimu and poteito chipsu in heaven. Fuck, imagine losing your cute goofy little sister.
>>284651190Based, at cons right?
>>284653670Yessir, it's fun, and Umaru was always having fun.
>uses the shared grief to bang her big tiddy best friendYeah I'm thinking based
>High-salt intake disrupts the gastric mucosal defense barrier, promoting Helicobacter pylori colonization and penetration of other carcinogenic compounds. Processed foods, processed meats, red meat, alcohol, foods with high dietary fat, and dietary cholesterol increase the risk of gastric carcinogenesis.Umaru literally ate herself to death.
>>284654143Based! Do any umaru fans ever strike up a convo cuz of the hood? I def would.
Even in death, Umaru is still on page one
>>284647874>>284648291That is very sad and I hope the mangaka was able to move on and find happiness. That said, I am still not going to watch or read it.
>>284654591I don’t think I’ve ever had conversations about Umaru unfortunately but people have made comments and asked for pictures
>>284647874So his sister was obnoxious and unlikeable?
>>284655076Yours isn't?
>>284655076Umaru is obviously exaggerated for comedic effect. His irl sister was probably just a normal younger sister and most people get annoyed by their siblings to some degree. A lot of times older siblings feel like the younger ones get away with more so that could have contributed to the character also.
>>284655018Cool beans bro! I'd ask to hang out but I assume you're in the states? I don't live there so I don't know when I'd be able to. Enjoy the nuggy time
>>284654730I shouldn't pick it, I really should not be so hasty, but the universe is set on me picking the VI SPACE WOLVES.
>>284649525>Taihei and Umaru on separate pagesF, poor guy
i really didnt need to know this sad stuff. fuck you, op.
>>284649525>umara and taihei in separate pages
>He had to shut up during all this time while the anime was airing to avoid affecting the views and the enjoyment of the work.>Had to fake a smile and saying that he was happy about a manga and anime based on his beloved late little sister who recently passed away. Seeing the series, he clearly loved her a lot. Fuck
Hey quick question who is it that /a/ decided deserved unimaginable amounts of suffering?https://files.catbox.moe/k6rzzt.png
>>284647874>>284649525Now I feel bad for thinking that it was pretty bad.
>>284658972It's like poetry innitIf you don't know the meaning it just looks like random garbage but once you know it it's beautiful in a way
>>284648291>Sankakuhead mentions that Umaru-chan as a character is based on his real sister. She appeared as being perfect on the outside, yet after getting back to home she was extremely lazy, was the inspiration of the manga after he observed her sister.> Around Volume 6-7 of the serialization (2015). His sister was diagnoised with a rare diseaae and started to live in the hospital for treatment. Even tho Sankakuhead tried his best to be positive and encourage her, the disease keeps getting worse.>Around Volume 10-11 of the serialization (2017), his sister wasn't able to beat the disease and passed away. Sankakuhead at the time was deeply hit. EVen at times due to being in insane amount of grief he is going thru he wasn't able to physically to bring himself to continue to draw Umaru-chan, and applied for a break at the editorial department.>During when the anime was celebrated by everyone, at congratulation dinners Sankakuhead pictures himself saying on stage "I am very happy". Yet at the same time he's enduring the pain of grieving losing a close a relative. These kind of conflicting feeling left him feeling complexed and confused.>Sankakuhead reveal that on the physical copies of Volume 11 the cover has a photo of a t-shirt, Said T-shirt was actually a gift to her sister. That picture was taken during when her sister personally wore it. He expressed that he hope this is a way of leaving proof that she was alive.>Back then he didn't reveal it to not leave readers feeling sad on a series supposed to be goofy and happy, He kept it private for the longest time. But now he hope that he can express his real self on his own youtube channel. And also hope that the readers don't forget about Umaru-chan. Because to him it means that you all won't forget about his sister.1/2
>>284659417>Sankakuhead at the intro of the video disclaimed numerous time that this is not a easy topic. It even can change the reader perspective on the work itself. But he chose to reveal on the ocassion that he has been a mangaka for 20 years now.>At the end, Sankakuhead said this while choking up: "Umaru-chan as a character is my sister...I hope people don't forget about her. Umaru is proof of that she was alive, if I never had a sister, Umaru-chan as a character would've never existed. I only want Umaru-chan to never be forgotten forever, it means that my sister will be remembered by you all."2/2
>Umaruchan was based on the authors IRL sisterAnd Sami is based on his daughter.
>>284647874>>284648291>Umaruchan was based on the authors IRL sister who fell ill and died during the production of the mangaFuck, that's rough, man. Stop trying to make me cry, it's not the time for it.
>>284655076A lot of people get irritated to the siblings to some degree. But obviously most people still love their brothers or sisters despite that.
>>284647874>>284648291There already is a thread >>284635289 where someone dumped a translation starting from >>284657698
>>284659417>>284659436God, life can be so cruel.
>>284649525Bro...
>>284649525>happy page actually hid a depressing truth for almost a decadeI used to make fun of Umaru but I have to read the manga now
>>284647874>>284648291>>284649525>For Volume 11, it’s a shirt. I put a picture of a shirt. An Umaru-chan shirt. And, actually, the person wearing that shirt in Volume 11 is my sister. Just a little bit... yeah. I wanted to leave something behind for her. I wanted to preserve this sister somehow>The character Umaru-chan is my sister. So... yeah. If you would be so kind... I want you not to forget her. Yeah. My sister... it is proof that she lived. If my sister didn't exist, Umaru-chan absolutely would not have been born. So... the fact that you remember Umaru-chan means you aren't forgetting my sister. Yeah. So, if it’s okay, I would be happy if you didn't forget Umaru-chan. That’s what I wanted to say.
>>284647899No. I got a warning for "trolling outside of /b/" last time I posted that.
>>284647874>Umaru's entire personality is about mindless consumerism and hedonistic gluttony.>Every other chapter is just her throwing a temper tantrum and demanding something be bought for her.>Manga repeatedly suggests the bonds of familial love are based on the purchase trinkets and tchochkes.If the manga is even a fraction of what his sister was like in real life buddy should be relieved this economic leech is gone.
>>284648291Oh man.
>>284658919Now I just feel bad
>>284658919A retarded /co/fag who kept forcing it until other people played along.
>>284655076All siblings are bro, that doesn't translate to hate.
>>284656411Well, if you ever see a retard in an Umaru hood at an American con, go ahead and ask
>>284659417>>284659436Man...
>>284658919Anonymous? Yeah, I wouldn't trust a word that guy says. Somebody who both experiences and deserves maximum suffering can't be a good judge of character.
>>284647874>>Umaru chan was based on the authors IRL sister who fell ill and died during the production of the mangaWHAT THE FUCK
Remember back when everyone was hating on Umaru-chanI remember
>>284647874I only bought 1 fig in my life, and it was her. Damn.
>>284663771tbf sad backstory aside she was a really fucking annoying character and it wasn't a great series. People disliked it for a reason.Like I get it, it sucks, but I'm not going to cry over umaru chan. /a/ would shed manly tears if it turned out rent a girlfriend was based on the dudes dead imouto. They just like an opportunity to post all their sad anime reaction images.
>>284664228>tbf sad backstory aside she was a really fucking annoying character and it wasn't a great series. People disliked it for a reason.I wish people would watch more than the first episode before saying stupid shit like this.
>>284659517Please don't die sami-chan
>>284664265>Buy me this or I throw tantrum>Allow me to gorge myself on that>How will I manipulate my caretaker todayAh yes, what a deep and endearing character.
>>284664311You're just proving me right.
>>284650298Umaru fucking sucked ass and that just makes it even more tragic.
>>284664265>bro you had to use the seventeen episode rule, it really picks up in the arc where she doesn't want to do anything and he doesn't really want to stop her
>>284664403>Being a faggot just for the sake of it>>284664496This nigger never made it to the second episode.
>>284662686Sounds good!
but was childhood friend, office lady based on his real-life wife
>>284649525aaaaAAAAAAAAA

>>284649525>Umaru reflection is on the clouds
>>284666163>Hamu
>284649525>Umaru reflection with the sky and clouds
>>284647874>>284648291>>284649525By the way, he said in the beginning of the video that he has two little sisters. That's why he often draws two Umaru-chan.Also I think what hits me the hardest is how he reminisces about his past with his dead sister, like when they're still children. Like, when he says that, it seems like he really wants to go back to that time:>And, well, memories with my sister... Hmm. The thing I remember most is that we drew manga together. Drawing manga together... I used to draw manga with friends at school, but when you go home, you don't draw manga with friends, right? But, my sister was at home. So I’d draw manga and draw pictures with my sister. I drew a hamster manga. My sister and I were each bought a hamster—one each—and we made those hamsters into characters and drew manga. Or the two of us would make flyers like "This toy is going on sale!" or "Game adaptation announced!" and play with those. Back then, I thought it was normal. But thinking back now, it was really precious. I think I was drawing such fun manga because my sister was there. If you're an only child, you can't do that, right? You have to draw alone. So, yeah.Also, he says when he was a kid, he didn't understand why his parents spent so much money on her sister(s). Although he later says he understand it now, like as parents, you have to buy cute and nice clothes for your daughter.
>>284647874Wow...
>>284664531It's my real opinion and also a fact.
>>284664531>>284664399Truth.
>>284666270I know we cleared this up in the other thread but just in case he doesn't have two little sisters. Sorry if I'm being annoying.
