Nothing ever happens, the mangaHow do you follow up kino like Dorohedoro with this steaming pile?
>>287302638
>>287302638It took a while to get going but now current arc has all the happenings
>>287302638It's fine but it is completely hampered by the dumbfuck retard doing the fan translation. Absolutely terrible and soulless translation, I can't wait for the official translation to outpace his dumbass.
>>287302742But his sick mom!
>>287302638Look, I don't give a fuck if something happens or not, if it's from Q Hayashida it's pure gold anyway. Also Damemaru revealed to be Chidaruma and Nagurun the fuckin Hole it's not nothing.
>>287302817Look it'd be one thing if his translations were bad, it'd be one thing if the translations were slow, and it'd be one thing if he was e-begging every single chapter. But the fact that it's ALL THREE at the same time is fucking nuts.
>>287302694This was secretly a stealth thread to figure out if it ever ended up getting good. Has a real plot emerged? Worth picking up again?
>>287302904It has less of a plot than Dorohedoro had at this point but there is a plot developing now.But if you really hated the fact that it was just a bunch of weird fucks dicking around in space you should probably just drop the manga, since it's still mostly that and will probably continue being that for a very long time.
>>287302933Especially if the fanlator is mediocre, sounds like its best I dont bother then. Thanks anon.
>>287303053Yeah, it's probably a manga that will be better enjoyed for you (and frankly, a lot of people) once it's totally finished and has a full official translation.
>>287302638I read it to see what the next thing Q Hayashida will draw and call a spaceship.
OP is a Solarfag
>>287303363Fuck off faggot pika
>>287302638Dai Dark is great>kinook you're a faggot got it
Shimada makes me diamond
Anyone have any spare bones they don’t need?
I'm nearing the end of Dorohedoro and I see this page a moment ago, from a page showing all the devils and their former sorcerer names. Makes me wonder how long QH had the idea for Dai Dark. But then, there's a lot of thematic and conceptual overlap between the two series, so I guess it's not that surprising.
>>287302638Name a single chapter where nothing happens
so is this going to be in the same universe as Dorohedoro or what? there was some weird powerful creature that clearly had a devil tail at one point but it hasn't been mentioned again yet
>>287302742>>287302817Kirei Cake? Dude needs to just pull the plug on her already. She's been sick so long, it'll be a mercy at this point.
>>287304017Damemaru is confirmed to be Chidaruma, and there was a whole arc about some dude becoming a devil from eating his flesh.
>>287302742Learn Japanese already.
>>287304352I still think they're all(or at least most of them) parts of Chidaruma that split off. Mostly because it'd be funny for him to finally make friends only for them to technically also be his own self
What faggot? Dai dark is pure kino.
>>287303608Bow chicka wow wow kek
>>287302742It was funny to see the trannylator sudden using "they/them" for Shop Valley out of nowhere just because she had short hair Just to 10 chapters later the author decided to put her fully naked with the tits out, basically screaming at the audience that the character is female
>>287302638Noi sex
>>287302638how do people not like dai dark?
>>287302638You seem to have never read Dorohedoro while it was ongoing.
>>287307566Lots of people don't think about what dorohedoro's pacing would feel like stretched over the 18 years it released monthly.
>>287302638This is instantly cooler than Dorohedoro. The sci-fi Horror house setting and 4 main characters being the final bosses of the universe is a perfect setup. Totally more unique than anything out there right now. I'm completely happy seeing them go space shopping inside a space costco while a nuclear bomb counts down, or get evil darkness ice cream. I just want to explore Hiyashida's imagination
i only wish to experience a relationship as close and long lasting as the one Hayashida has with her lsd dealer
>>287307533Visualize OP as your average /dbs/ poster and everything begins to make perfect sense.
DRESS FOR THE JOB YOU WANT!>dress like a fucking disasterDRESS FOR THE BONE YOU WANT!
>>287307804Lmfao I actually did. DBZ posters are everywhere tonight, they're even in fucking dara-san threads.
SHOCKING!
>>287308046wut
>there are anons in this thread who think the (((official translations))) will be better than the fan translationYou naive fools...
>>287302651Lewd butthole
>>287304979But it's haaaaard
>>287302638Q Hayashida made me less of a misogynist
>>287307726the sci horror setting is the bad part because of the comedy
>>287302694Don't care. They killed best girl.
>>287309235She'll be fine after she's been through the wash
>>287303553Does Shimada get any bush shots like Nikaido did?
>>287309050That's entirely Q's appeal though. Lighthearted wholesome shenanigans contrasted with horror ultraviolence and gore set in a dingy terrible setting with all the gritty details that somehow still feels whimsical is the entire reason why one reads her works.
>>287309978It's just not my thing i suppose, i don't really mind a bit of humor but it sorta kill my thing for this work in particular
>>287309978i feel like the reason this doesn't work aswell in dai dark as in dorohedoro is that we don't get a regeluar joes perspective on their world, like we got with fujita or the hole side crew or even the crosseyes at the start in dorohedoro.
>>287302638retard
I have no idea how Hayashida managed to follow fantastic Underground Underground with this steaming pile of shit.Sanko is a terrible protagonist. He has negative charisma and presence compared to typical leads from this author. Shimada is too OP to even consider a character, feels like Hayashida's blatant self insert.It feels like this manga would work far better as a video game given how formulaic it is.
>>287307726Dai dark had stakes because it had likeabeale characters that weren't invincible and an interesting mystery.Dai Dark only has the latter and the plot started picking up only recently.
>>287311076i think you mean dorohedoro had stakes because of the non invincible charactersBut yeah i agree with you wholeheartedly, the main group feels way too strong which is weird since sanko almost dies / dies multiple times
>>287310979>I'm retarded look at meThanks for letting us know
>>287310979double retard
>>287302638>Nothing ever happens, the mangaActually that was chainsaw man part 2Something happened in Dai Dark
>>287302638>nothing ever happens>Shimada is literally dead>Shop Valley is ???>The new Solar Warriors are gaining consciousnessYou clearly don't read it
>>287303953I am still convinced it is an indirect sequel to Dorohedoro. Things align too well.
>>287307533Uneventful for multiple volumes at a time.
>>287311760Just like Dorohedoro.
>>287311698it is tho?
>was told it was a sci-fi story before it started and I don't really like sci-fi so I didn't get into it>every page posted here looks like fantasy againI don't get it
>>287309361Still to be discovered
>>287302638I'm gonna be honest, I like Dorohedoro quite a lot and I don't find the girls attractive. They're anti-attractive actually.
>>287311992Its the mob faces and the lack of sexualized poses. Like they're naked, but it isn't seductive. Instead it feels like you walked in on your mom changing or something.
>>287310979>Underground Underground Yeah it was fun
>>287311657Shimada just became a rug, no biggie
>>287312170i mean she completely deserved it so i'm not feeling sorry for her
>>287312170True, a good trashing should fix it.
>>287311992Noi and Nikaido are sexo and the crosseyes girl is cute
>>287302742i hate kireicake as much as the next guy but your official alternative is fucking viz
>>287314414hey viz gave us pic rel
>>287314440dorohedoro translation in a nutshell
>>287312081Is their bodies. They look too much like fridges with boobs. I'll say that the poses are sexualized, the problem is that they're also too casual about nudity so even that gets old. Crosseyes girl was the only cutie.
>>287302638Dorohedoro's ending was a massive disappointment desu
>>287314810I hated how hard she tried to make En seem cool when he was a joke the entire time up to that point in the manga.
>>287314914En is cool. He’s the best character in the manga.
>>287314936He's shit and his death was perfect. The revival was lame.
>>287314936>En is cool. He’s the best character in the manga.>magic users>cool
>>287314914Having character flaws doesn't make you not strong
>>287314810What were people even expecting back then? I only read it last year and I loved the ending. Hole-kun is very amusing.
>>287311943Read it, it is very gritty and Heavy Metal-esque
>>287314914En is a great character though.
>>287315219
>>287303075nta but I should check back on this in twenty years then?
>>287314914Absolute retard
>>287315248
>>287315219shippers wanted Nikaido to take the gatordickedgefags hated gyoza magicsorcerers hated hole-kuneveryone else had a blast
>>287315377>shippers wanted Nikaido to take the gatordickThese people can imagine whatever they want now though, I think Dorohedoro did a very good job at remaining sexual without being totally perverse>edgefags hated gyoza magicfigured >sorcerers hated hole-kunwhat does that mean exactly
>>287315377We didn't get total sorcerer death, which is a negative
>>287315377>edgefags hated gyoza magicI'm guilty of thisMore importantly though I wanted En's crew to have their stories wrapped up more in the end, I hated how they just hung out in a big pie doing jack shit after they got their bodies rebuilt. I was invested in Ebisu and Fujita i liked their stupid antics and it just died off in the end
"nothing ever happens but the vibes" is as legit subgenre as any other
It's okay but it's too much mucking around.I kinda lost interest when that leader of the church showed up going through some cringe motions. The way it's written goes through these elaborate motions of introducing some jabronis that ultimately get bodied anyway, but it takes forever to just go through it and these stale events just end up eating too much page time.What sold Dorohedoro is that almost every single character, even tertiary ones, were interesting to just look at as they're doing stupid shit.In Dai Dark literally everyone except the main team is garbage tier and the manga spends way too much time gassing these clowns up.
>>287302742epic poverty fail
>>287314639Man I'm not here to judge your taste, but hell, the girls drawn by Hayashida are peak feminity >>287303553
>>287316720>Ebisu and Fujitayeah :/dorohedoro is great but it does sorta end poorly. builds up so much but in the last act lasers in on the main plot and everything else gets pushed to the side
>>287307664We mostly got translations with volume releases, so the pacing didn't seem as slow as it could in the periods we got proper magazine scans.
>>287319878I disagree. There's something about her female characters that's just unappealing.
>>287308363Aside from translating Kikurage's name literally, the Viz translation of Doro was fine. It's biggest sin was Viz pulling their usual cheap bullshit and greyscaling color pages.
>>287314914He's introduced as essentially the fucking king of sorcerer world sending enforcers around with impunity.
>>287303075hmm
>>287308875Proofs?
>>287309978Dorohedoro had a lot of more serious moments and mystery though
>>287322999I mean just look at it
>>287311076Wut. Dorohedoro characters literally never die. You always know that know people do not in fact die when they are killed in that universe. I guess the exception is some of the secondary Cross Eye characters, they stay dead. But you never really expect death to mean anything for anybody who appears on a cover.
>>287320836She draws boxy broads with perfect spheres for tits, they're big but they look like implants and the nipples are small and unappealing. I'm not enough of a cumbrain to seriously criticize her designs for not being sexy enough, and frankly I think she's a genius character designer who never misses, but you can tell she's not really into women, at least not in the way a guy is. Guys can never resist making a character like Nikaido into complete fapbait. It's weirdly tasteful with Q.
>>287315377>shippers wanted Nikaido to take the gatordickYou'd think Q drawing them married 'for a fan' would let people get the point.
>>287320988He's introduced as a mob boss who sends out killers for real jobs and loses every struggle he's in against a tough opponent until he's revived in the finale. No one thinks that Don Corleone is the most dangerous fighter in the mob.
>>287324211The absence of the male gaze. It's refreshing.
>>287324895>instakills shapeshifter assassins and keeps his cool with guns to his head>almost kills Nikaido by accident when he goes berserk>shows the versatility of his power by resprouting the spores from his previous run-in with Nikaido and remote viewing through is mushroom dolls>the Mastema backstory is shown to be true in regards to the Death Shroom incident
>>287324895Anon he is a walking nuclear bomb. He turned a town into mushrooms as a reflex. He's the STRONGEST sorcerer in any conventional sense.
>>287324306Some people just need things to be spelled out. I remember some manga review journalist wrote a negative review of Asper-kanojo that amounted, "They never say 'autism' in it. I can't tell if she's autistic if they don't say she is."
