>>292116083>Picked upYou're lucky. I wish I could read all of Abe Youichi's works for the first time again.
>>292112082Torishima was right
>>292115809>What works, in a museum, have you seen that held your attention for days, for years?I can think of 2 solid examples, one a preserved body part and one the very structure of a museumA pair of human ovaries where one had cancer making it probably 50 times larger than the other, that exhibition (body worlds) is in sydney at the moment but I saw it in perthand the national museum in singapore where in the main singapore history exhibit you could walk down 2 different paths depending on if you wanted to learn about important people and events or the lives of the common man, this was many years ago though so it may well have changed, probably about 15 yearsI can't think of any actual art examples though, this thing I saw at the museum of contemporary art in sydney stood out to me but I certainly wasn't thinking about it months later
>>292115809Rothko's Yellow and Orange. Genuinely it only looks good in person, but in person it has this sense of light coming from inside the painting that it is pretty incredible. It feels like looking at the painting of a flashlight, but like it is actually illuminated from the inside out.
>>292116145I liked this one personally the best. I looked at this page for such a long time when I got to this page. The artwork for Aria is so damn good, Kozue Amano is a great artist.
>>292117096I like this one a lot more, great use of negative space
>>292112872most overrated mangaka in the scene.

>>292117378All religions are misanthropic.
>>292117138For me it's this one
Absolute easy mode, not a single effort in researching a good pic, I couldn't find a bad one if I tried.
>>292117417Not the good ones but if you think hating humans amounts to anything then you are far too gone already
>>292111504why does this guy have a gamer dent
>>292117081I hate "art" like this. Same tier as shitting on a canvas or throwing tomatoes and then calling the result art, fuck that
>>292116614About what?
>>292117782About new mangaka not paying any care to what their spreads will look like physically printed
>>292112657The perspective looks off
>>292117752It's too deep for you
>>292116614>>292117790That's because physical print is just subpar now.Pretend to hate newstuff like OPM as you want, we both know it's glorious most of the time.
>>292115948No
>>292117677If the point of religion is to regulate human nature then isn't there a misanthropic side to all of them, even meme ones like satanism?

>>292111504I always will love all the heart and soul this double spread has. All this love from scifi otaku and japanese culture in all this tiny characters always made me happy. It sucks that the official scan version cut some characters and /a/nos had lost the infograph version of this page which had many of the references in it.
This could be a good thread but of course it would be ruined with a bunch of redditors being "super le funny" posting porn

>>292126742Wrong thread?
I don't even really like KareKano that much, and the point here isn't really the art, but I love the juxtaposition of this spread. And it's one of those that if you were reading in single page mode you'd likely miss.
>>292112082Where is this from?
>>292112082This kind of things made me think, have nobody ever thought printing or making the page bounding different?

>>292122109Your average Joe wouldn’t come up with the idea in the first place, so he wouldn’t make it.
>>292122796Any Blade of the Immortal spread qualifies
>>292111504Actually saw the original boards for this at a Naoki Urasawa exhibition a few years ago, was a fantastic experience
>>292117266>>292117297>>292117186I was going to post the "PRAY FOR ME" page but turns out it's a single page and not a double
>>292128049I feel like that page is significantly better in the manga than on its own because then you have the context that that's not actually where they are.
>>292128388For sure, it's power comes from the page turn but it's still pretty iconic in isolation (probably helps that the show previews it in the OP)
>>292127402The book maker is supposed to put a blank in the center of the page to account for that. The pages themselves should look like this IRL. When bound the gutter would be taken up by the binding and the spread would look natural.
>>292117530>>292117544>>292117664Doukokusu was such a great ride.
The most artistic double spread ever
>>292112266Left for the loli
>>292127650Look at the detail here, I don’t care if he was aping HnK. Give me this over his more anatomically correct art from late stage part 7 to part 8 onwards
>>292129047I don't know if I'd call parts 7 and 8 any more anatomically correct.
>>292129084I assume anon was trying to call it realistic as an insult?
>>292128059lmao damnit, beat me to itI love that scene
>>292129523Just finished it, great manga. The ending while nice confuses me, why did he decide to become a lord after everything? Being a teacher to the kids suited him more, he pretty much abandoned them
>>292127890How's the sequel? Wasn't sure if it was more kino or the author was phoning it in for beer money
>>292129150Let's not pretend like Araki hasn't aged impressively well as an artist. He's 66, he's been drawing manga for 44 of those, and JoJo itself is 40 years old. You can probably count on your fingertips how many manga artists worked as much as he did and were still putting out stuff like this that late in their career.
>>292116168That looks Akira-esque
Anyone have the Sengoku Youko centerfold that was like 8 pages?
>>292129661Yeah, night and day compared to Oda, who's been putting out some of the ugliest pages i've seen in a comic.
Someone posted this one >>292113823 which is 4 pages. I think you mean this one, which is 5 pages.
>>292129859Meant for >>292129817
>>292129834People have been calling One Piece ugly since it started and Oda was in his 20s. Araki has more time (at least for the past 20 or so years) to draw chapters but I don't think Jojo is any less ugly than One Piece is.
>>292128974>Let's humiliate the MC. Ha ha, how funny
>>292129915If people call One Piece ugly or whatever, I assume they're referring to the art style, which I disagree with for most of the manga. But lately, it's been getting worse and worse, especially when it comes to page composition. His double-page spreads are atrocious. I agree that it's largely due to Jump's work schedule and his age, though. It's impressive that he's still working after all these years.
>>292129661Araki somehow got better compared to Jojolion. He truly gives a fuck.
>>292129966That's all Nisio Isin's work. As much as I like Evangelion, I really despise it for popularizing the weak MC trope. Isin really made a feast of it.
>>292125682You could pick any spread from Drifting Dragons and it would belong in this thread, it's basically cheating
>>292130073Definitely the fact that he took a break between the two. He was putting out impressive stuff even on a weekly schedule, too.
>>292112071Sauce?
It's a shame haganai got such a bad reputation because of the novel's ending, the manga was kino from start to end
>>292112176how'd this manga end, anyways?
>>292112176What happened next?
>>292127907hyouge mono was peak
>>292129857love the way she draws the hard shadows here, makes sense since they're on the moon but it also works stylistically
>>292131811They aren't on the moon in that pageIchikawa just loves hard shadows in general
surprised no ones posted something by kaoru mori yet
>>292131936god I wish I were that catdog
Out of the way faggots
>>292116168Came here to post Blame!
>>292132117Blame! is my favorite manga and every few years I re-read it. I actually discovered it because some anon on /a/ back in 2012 posted a picture. The thread was fictional universes that would suck to live in. I went in blind and the whole experience felt weird and foreign. It was unlike anything else I’ve read. There wasn’t a lot of dialogue and I didn’t know what the hell was going on but I was being dragged along by the art. I’m reading tower dungeon, and I kinda wish he would return (somewhat) to the more detailed style, but I am enjoying it.
>>292132023I felt the last strech of the manga was a little rushed, but man it still was a fine manga, rosen garden was fantastic.
>>292131936I try my best not to read that mangaIt hurts too much
>>292130601There's a final fight. MC loses all his body from the torso down. All the girls stand above him and piss on him. His body gets restored. He fucks the main girl. Then they get on a mecha and set off to fight some gods.

>>292113067It's interesting how you can tell exactly where the page changes, it works as a spread but also as two separate pages.>>292113583I go through manga very slowly, trying to enjoy each panel and page. Speedreading occurs only when I'm on the verge of dropping something.

>>292151342star spreads MOG your edge!
>>292151456okay but you got to admit that the beach episode was the true peak of punpun
>>292151536it is really good, i do agree.
>>292122109the entire point is that it couldn't, that's why rothko is praised, he had an understanding of pigments and color relativity that allowed him to create simple swatches of color that achieved a sense of depth and emotional resonance that nobody else sinced has managed with such minimalism
>>292151640why are nips so fixated with the concept of monotheist gods, considering their society has no muslims or jews?
>>292117677>Not the good onesunironically name them, all abrahamic ones at least have a large amount of guilt and self degradation built into them because it was necessary to control uneducated people into behaving morally
>>292151669Despite Japanese religion ostensibly being polytheistic they still often will refer to "god" meaning a supreme being. There's also the foreign uniqueness aspect of it. That being said you're delusional if you think there are no abrahamic religion practitioners in Japan.
>>292151669Its a joke, he is a poser duping an audience. Thats what they think of christians.
>>292151706>you're delusional if you think there are no abrahamic religion practitioners in Japanhuh weird, didn't know there was a significant amount of them to have a cultural impact
>>292151180Actual good use of page space instead of being BIG PICTURE. I'd like to see how it turned out on paper.
>>292151734It's not significant
>>292151746I figure this thread is mostly for the big picture ones. But I do like some of the ones that still have some other structure to them. I think One Piece has tainted a lot of people on page spreads that aren't just a single image.
>>292151734It is the meme foreign cult dumb housewives join.
>>292130073i think the art feels more lively even if his hatching and overall line quality got worse, it's more creative even if in terms of pure technical skill he probably peaked in mid part 7 for drawing humans (and at some point during part 4 for drawing objects in interesting angles)
>>292151734there are some schools that have christian teachings in them but generally the japanese conception of abrahamic stuff just kinda mushes everything together (take araki for example, who went to a christian school which is why there's constant jesus imagery in jojo but still gives out some shit that's very clearly based on mormonism when trying to talk about him in the manga)
>>292151640>I can make a medium sized crowd behave somewhat predictably!>I am clearly the omniscient, omnipresent creator and manipulator of the trillions of galaxies in the cosmos!!1!!!22
>>292151946Who are you quoting?
>>292151946The point is he's splitting the clouds and crowd, anon. You know, like that one story from the Bible about that guy that split the sea.
I'm trying to remember one I saw posted in one of these threads but it's escaping me. I think it was a bunch of people fighting in a field then a character broke through the manga(?) and was looking down on them. I swore it was a Mizukami manga.
>>292152066Just check any OPT in the archive, it gets spammed all the time.
>>292152185But I'm lazy and this thread is active right now.
>>292111504>crtl+f shin poruku>no resultsCome on guys
>>292152197I also just looked through a bunch of threads and didn't even find it.
>>292151734>>292151752>huh weird, didn't know there was a significant amount of them to have a cultural impact>It's not significant Although there are relatively few people in Japan practice Abrahamic religions, you all need to understand that cultural exchange also involves religious influence. You need to check out more fashion, manga, and video games from the late 90s and early 2000s. There's a ton of stuff you're overlooking, such as crosses on people's clothes during that period, Japanese nuns in both real life and fiction, and the religious imagery found throughout Japanese media. Try playing a single Shin Megami Tensei game, an early Guilty Gear game, or a Final Fantasy game. Take a look at manga and anime like Trigun, Magi, Neon Genesis Evangelion, or Bloody Trinity, and try to figure out where their depictions of Western angels, demons, and other religious concepts might have come from. Fuck man, wtf is Devilman?Although much of this might be superficial (like with NGE, or with people wearing crosses purely as a fashion thing), there's still plenty of media influenced by Abrahamic religions and Western religious traditions, including concepts such as witches and even the Pope. These influences reached Japan through centuries of cultural exchange with countries such as France, India (Islam), England, Italy, Germany, and Russia.
300 replies and no Kurosawa yet. I'm surprised.
>>292152758Akagi and Kaiji are enough, I honestly could not get into any other of that guys works.
>>292152807I enjoyed Ten. Felt less gimmicky than Akagi.
>>292152893Ten is definitely good (and it has one of the greatest ending in any manga ever) but as someone who likes mahjong, I was honestly kind of blown away by just how dry the mahjong is in it. It's still good and enjoyable, but it made me realize that personally, even if it can get gimmicky and ridiculous, I definitely prefer that kind of "sport" manga over something played rather straight.
>>292152758I think most of anosbelieve that the artistic value of something worthy of being displayed in a museum comes from how beautiful or well-made art is. However, as I posted here >>292152727, I believe that impactful double-page spreads also have artistic value in their own right. Ryo saying that "now we all going to hell" is both rad as fuck as terrifying in the context of the story. Go Nagai had balls of steel to completely recontextualize what the reader should actually be afraid of: the mass hysteria that unfolds later in the story, driven by demons but ultimately executed through human actions such as murder, genocide, war, rape, and moral degradation.
>>292152066could be bugle call?
>>292152303Retard-kun, you didn't even post the full page. The whole spread is just ok due to the bottom panels
>>292111504well at least you are not calling them OPT anymore
>>292130473Anything made by this man is absolutely stunning.
Without a doubt
Absolutely none of these are good art they just look pretty in a comic book
>>292150926bro is huffing his own farts over a money laundering scheme
>>292151946He's a stupid hack and they're pleasing him by going along with his delusions that's the joke dude
>>292152913What's wrong with the mahjong in Ten? It has some of the best mahjong matches in media (the 1v1 mahjong and mangan mahjong come to mind, incredibly exciting and thorough).
>>292156940>>292152758Anyway, here's a good spread from Akagi. Typesetting isn't appreciated enough in that context, it can make or break a page.

>>292113583Most of backgrounds are drawn by assistants
>>292157992True. Every time I want to say anything about a manga, I imagine how the mangaka would feel.So I only say bad things if the mangaka is a communist.
fug can't find the pages in my millions of folders. But the manga adaption of Les Miserables had a lot of beautiful spreads.
There's absolutely NOTHING the author can do to make me like the shitty teenager protagonist more than him

>>292111504This one easily.
Surprised there's no Nihei in this thread.
>>292151536All of those are good but if we're talking about the best Punpun spread then it has to be this.

>>292162662Eat shit, faggot. You posted an incomplete spread that cuts out half the fucking page and you're trying to tell me I don't appreciate manga. I like pic related as a spread but I don't know if I'd say it should be saved in a museum.

>>292178808Ajin spreads are just cheating.
>>292154896what the fuck is this?
>>292132499>I felt the last strech of the manga was a little rushedRushed? Rather - very contrived. The author tries to cram the whole cosmology of his universe in the last few chapters of his story to justify his stupid resolution.You might say: "Aren't you just restating what a rushed story is?". Maybe partially yes, but distinction lies in the logical structure and arrangement of the story. Up until the final fight the story was flowing smoothly and naturally and there were no flags raised for anything beyond the last fight. There was nothing that stood out as being cut out. I'll give grace and mention Sieg being benched and irrelevant for the most of the final stretch as the only symptom of the rushed story, but putting that aside, everything else points toward shitty writing and author failing to properly set up the final fight without resorting to the awkward and convoluted info-dump diarrhea to tie it up.

Chi spoiler
>>292160541Is this being published outside of nipland?
You could fill an entire museum with Berserk spreads.
>>292162063What manga is this?
>>292182376NTA but it's Bokuranos. It's a OPT staple and it's not actually that good, but the ending (where that spread is from) is pretty fucking good.
>>292176719The metaphysics of that universe are actually really well explained and it all makes total sense, you should do a re-read i think. Its some genius stuff.
>>292182913I don't think it was poorly done or anything, I just went into the story expecting something more groundedOnce you add in unnatural laws, you can't solve the mystery as a reader
>>292182955Thats the thing, they're not unnatural by essence. There is a causal logic for how all of it happens so it certainly is possible to guess what happens next and why. I get what you mean though, its not the usual mystery detective story where you can theorize who-dun-it. Shame you didn't like it.
>>292182052not if youre rich
>>292180120The manga is soooo shit, but this image is so good at baiting people into reading it.
>>292120319Relax anon you don't have to pretend to fit in here.
>>292120319he still sucks at action and making everything flow in a comprehensible manner
>>292187252He's the chair of the Boondocks I swear. Read this so fast, fun and charming.
>>292158534I'm still sad that the manga never went surreal even a little.>>292158492A good one, but nothing will beat pic for the best scene in the manga.
>>292187493Seeing Alabasta era art just makes me sad because it reminds me of how much Oda's drawing skills have degraded

Reminder that digital format is superior
>>292191854>every page filled edge to edgeThe one on the right was clearly never intended to be printed on paper.Both digital and paper have their own different tricks. Some manga only "works" on super thin semi transparent magazine paper. On the other hand >>292119653 layout was intended for swipe scrolling.
