>>287716259>Damn Kaisei's God of Death back at the promotion test really was Dogshit>>287716527Break next week because Golden Week btw
Akane should consult a professional about these hallucinations of hers. Hopefully the evening will not end with someone really dying.
>>287716440Spooky
>>287716259I wonder if these are good or bad reactions.
>>287716666nice quads>Just as Kaisei is about to start his turn Issho gets a stroke
>>287716666>Local Rakugoka Wins Contest Thanks To Acute Schizophrenia
The "Rakugo verse" shit doesn't land with me
>>287716861Good thing it's The Effortless Realm!
How many times have they changed what the Rakugo schizo weapon is?
>>287716527I'm starting to believe Kaisei is gonna lose.
>>287715896Long time since we last saw Akane's friend, it's nice seeing that the mangakas still remember them
>>287716861It's just nin, buddy.
>>287716118>>287716158Akane unlocked the sexo and pervert ojii-san skills, she is truly unstoppable now
>>287716158Asexualkane.
>>287716666>>287716829Do Akane-Banashi and Shinobi Undercover share an editor?
BECOME RAKUGO
>>287716339That's just improv, Akane
>>287716440Neat.
>>287718178I cant wait for him to give her 3rd place for some bullshit reason
>>287719607There are only two contestants, but I too expect him to give her 3rd place for some bullshit reason.
>>287719607>>287719731>Kaisei also gets 3rd
>>287716291Apogee is a fun word.
>>287716440actually got me wtf
>>287720301after all apogee is the point from which you can only fall
>>287720301BUT THISISTO GOEVEN FURTHER BEYOND!
>>287716339S-SHE'S BECOMING RAKUGO
>>287720301It's the height of gaming entertainment.
>>287718295True, but before it's her moving the pieces whereas now the story is using Akane to tell itself. Which is kinda bullshit because as a storyteller who learnt an established story no way she won't embellish it with her own interpretation. The child god of death is, after all, of her own idea. Otoh it's an *established* story so the current form is made of many forms before, probably generations worth of iterations that no one can truly claim (reinterprete) it as its own.I don't know, maybe it's a little of both, but one is more dominant than the other.
>>287716339What kind of ruins this for me is that the manga will do all this for when Akane learns or fufills a new aspect in her performance only to have a more accomplished rakugo perform a story in a less bombastic fashion (presentation wise) and it's treated as better work. Just feels like a constant mismatch in presentation and dialogue. Comparing this to the supposed master of this story, Shiguma, and that doesn't even register as a more grand or successful performance comparatively yet the dialogue will tell us it is more masterful while the presentation does not convey as much to me at least. I guess the primary difference would be that Shiguma is technically bringing the audience into the world of the story, while here it's more like Akane's bringing characters out of the world to act the story.
akane should rakugo herself a pair of bigger tits is this even a jump manga
>>287716259Uh-oh...
>>287721813in the world of traditional japanese arts, doing shit half-assed in a serenely smug manner is the correct wabi sabi approach and any critic must pretend they liked it or it's ogre for their career
>>287721304As Shomei said at one point, God of Death is a story that can't be told in a purely mechanic craftsman style. There is no one God of Death to learn, his character has to be interpreted somehow. Shomei had his funny skeleton Death, Shiguma had his creepy cute cartoon grandpa Death, and Akane's version is strongly based on Shiguma's with the cuteness amped up.
The power scaling in this has become unfathomable
>>287721892It just seems really hard to depict the intricacies of a spoken performance without any audio and the rubric of a masterful performance as it pertains to the manga is ever shifting. I like to see her progress but it's hard to even gauge where the endpoint even is until the manga feels ready to say she's reached it. We've seen numerous master rakugoka perform and it never feels like the presentations of their performances adhere to what's considered the next step in Akane's art. It's like a journeyman painter being told they have to master painting blue to reach an advanced level and then all the master painters we see never use the color blue.
>>287716158Akane has awakened her sexuality with the help of rakugo. How will this momentous change affect the story? It won't
>>287722295She will seduce Issho, and in the middle of riding him like a pony she will ask why he sent her dad to concrete realm.
>>287722458he will claim he did it because he could, just to exercise his overman destiny
>>287716666>>287718295She's in the zone, so absorbed in a discipline she's mastered that she can effortlessly let herself go, knowing that whatever she wants to convey will be conveyed.It's improvisation when you know what you're doing.
>>287718178>Ah shit. She might actually murder me.
>>287716086>"My mouth is moving by themselves"
>>287719731kek
>>287718178>she's going straight to the concrete mines
>>287718178The face of someone wanting to say "That's not God of Death" so badly, but he know he can't.
>>287718178He looks like he's seen a ghost.
>You got any games on your phone?
>>287727714I mean, obviously she tapped into the OG Shiguma vibe for a moment and they both could tell.
This performance is too long
