It had like 100+ Volumes Manga series.How many of these classics are we missing? Like everytime I look at an Ova I find it had a super long Manga or Novel
>>287731086>How many of these classics are we missing?Too many. And I can't even find some things raw.
>>287731086Jingoku Sensei Nube got two different TV series, 3 OVAs and 3 original movies and still has over 100 untranslated chapters on every major site
>>287731086The film is perfect already
>>287731086i've got a huge collection of original Locke manga. there are a shitton of series, and they're really great.Sadly Hijiri san changed publishers. At the time of his death in 2022 I remember he was publishing two series in two separate magazines.pic related is my favorite version of the heart of the series. the Comic Burger edition of the Shonen King runthis edition has some "filler" text descriptions of chapters ad stories they couldn't reprint from the 1968-1979 period. No idea if those are even in print.Wildly underrated series that will someday hopefully be recognized.
>>287731227>has over 100 untranslated chapters on every major siteMore than 100 chapters, you forgot the sequels and spin-offs
>>287731133Where do you fags even look?https://bookwalker.jp/series/10731/list/
>>287731783Is the manga episodic or is it a long continuous story? And why does mangaupdates mention only 37 volumes + 7 volumes for the sequel.https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/gixbhhc/choujin-locke
>>287733036Mangaupdates is mainly intended to catalogue fan translations. Any information on untranslated content is spurious at best. The list more Locke on the author's page.https://www.mangaupdates.com/author/ghjjabi/hijiri-yukiWikipedia has a chronology of the dated serieshttps://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/超人ロック#ストーリー As you can see the releases were completely all over the place with some longer story arcs and many standalone series.
>>287733036it's kind of like an anthology series where each time Locke appears in (largely) someone else's storyBut there is a complex interleaved chronology about the fall and rise of a galactic federation that unites the series.
>>287733036manga updates looks like it's just all over the placethe english wiki is betterhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locke_the_Supermanwhat they list as the Shonen King series (tiger of the flames onward) is the centerpiece. Truly great. Series becomes a bit repetitive after that.I've never seen it remarked upon but the early Shirow Masamune (black magic) was plainly aping the series. Extremely influential.
>>287731086too manynobody wants to translate long series like Golgo 13 or KochiKame despite their popularityGalaxy Express 999 scanlation is deadCyborg 009 license got dropped and the scanlation is deadmost Kazuo Kamimura like Dousei Jidai have no English translationa lot of classic shoujo with popular anime adaptations aren't translated either
>>287731086Shin-Chan is a big oneGeGeGe no Kitaro has two official translations but they're missing like 10 chapters for some reason
>>287734936>Galaxy Express 999 scanlation is dead>Cyborg 009 license got dropped and the scanlation is deadIf we can get Kinnikuman and Sukeban Deka. We can get translations for Cyborg 009 and Galaxy Express 999
>>287734981>Shin-ChanAt least the Anime and the movies are getting subs. I really need all the movies in just 1 torrent with great subs. /a/ should really watch the Doraemon and Shinchan movies they are excellent
>>287734981>GeGeGe no KitaroThis one I really need it. Some of the spin-offs and anime are getting subs very slowly. The recent series and movies were great
>>287734981>GeGeGe no KitaroI just check and is nobody uploading the new subs for Kitarou!? on nyaaa!? https://tl-skeweds.blogspot.com/search/label/Anime?m=1

>>287731086I'm gonna lose it. Why we don't have more Papa told me translations? Literally a masterpiece but 0 interest from the genera public
>>287736753When you're that deep in the rabbit hole one has to ask why you don't translate them yourself.
>>287736753papa told me is fully translated
>>287736937>papa told me is fully translatedincorrecthttps://mangadex.org/title/4a50b8d8-6274-4284-95d2-e4b966329316/papa-told-me-cocohana-version
>>287731086Talking about old series, do you guys remember Arata? The author made an entire reboot of the series and created a whole new storyhttps://mangadex.org/title/9429f633-1005-4be9-aebf-950b96b41e4b/arata-kangatari-remastered-ban
>>287731086It weirds me out that /m/ never did anything with it
>>287731086I just wish translations weren't so slow, Fujita Kazuhiro is GODLIKE
>>287740581What's your excuse for not knowing Japanese?
>>287740661>What's your excuse for not knowing Japanese?I'm getting there, I was young and dumb
>>287739779MECHA LOVE! SHOTA LOVE!
>>287739779I always wonder why we don't have a modern remake a la Astro Boy for Tetsujin 28?
>>287744200But it did.
>>287744836That is not Tetsujin 28, that is Giant Robot
>>287745058But Tetsujin also had a remake in 2004. I actually misread the for as or because GR isn't as well known in comparison to the 90s OVA or the Tetsujin remake.
>>287745123>Tetsujin also had a remakeWhat is this bullshit!?
>>287731086all these fags seething over lack of le "scanlations" (what redditors call translations)most manga are written for children and barely literal adults. it's simple japanese.just learn it faggits. seriously. but plainly that's too much work and might cut into your masturbation time
>>287732866>>287736665>their first instinct is to pay for it/a/ is really in gutter
>>287749108When was /a/ ever opposed to supporting the industry?Fifteen or twenty years ago anons wished it would be as easy as it is now.Takahashi Yousuke is still active as an author. If you like his work you should pay for it.
>>287734936Consecuences of not dubbing and licecing those manga-animes, its way easier to get the script from the original companies than wasting time on translations and doing fan scanlations. fucking dragon ball, the most famous shonen slop, is almost longer as golgo 13 and kochikame, and it has a lot of scanlations for irrelevant shit like film animation adaptations to manga
>>287749108>their first instinct is to pay for itYes, PAY FOR IT. We are not kids. We are adults. I can drink Alcohold
>>287752296prove it. Drink this gin+tonic without making a sour face
>>287746301That's the 90s remake. Not to be confused with the 80s remake (pic related). The 2004 remake is really good. It's directed by Imagawa, the same guy who did the Giant Robo OVA.
