Isekai

I have watched quite a few Isekai over the years starting of course with Inuyasha then going on to see Re: Zero, Sword Art Online, and Log Horizon. I never looked at That Time I Reincarnated as a Slime before though, I really like how Slime has evolved on some of the cliches of Isekai. How they didn't just transport into another realm but also changed races, also how it feels very video game-like, however, isn't an actual video game. I do wish some of the characters were a little bit deeper but I guess for this type of show that's not really what it's going for, also I could do with less fan fair but again this is a cliche for Isekai. Overall it's fun and I plan on continuing to view it.

Week Three: Gekiga

I haven't read much Gekiga except for maybe Lupin III. I really like this style it's open and raw however melodramatic and fun. Cigarette girl is one of my favorite things I've ever read its funny but relatable and doesn't have as of putting charters as something like Golgo 13 though I do enjoy that type of story quite a bit. Cigarette Girl brought something to manga that I haven't personally experienced before and will be looking forward to explore more with further reading.

The influence of Manga and Anime in the West

First off I'm a salmon avocado roll. 1. I really liked this story. I think its length was perfect, overall though I found it somewhat sad. Maybe it was because of how it was drawn, or because there for most of the story nothing good really happened I just found the whole thing somewhat depressing. This could also be because I'm ending my college time, I'm actually going to become a real adult that this story spoke to me. How you can't be a kid forever but also that you can. I don't totally know but I did really enjoy reading it. 2. I was definitely able to connect to the general theme of growing up that I found in the story. As artists, I feel like we walk a fine edge between adulthood and childhood all the best stories and imaginative ideas I think come from a place in our heads that we've always had but was most active during the younger years. I also related to how Ildeung experience with grades and expectations, though I never have been as intense as stu...

Shonen Manga.

Shonen is probably the type of manga I am most familiar with. My first manga I ever read was Ranma 1/2, having not read this in quite a long time I reread it, it's still is one of my all time favorite Shonen's. I really enjoy how it differs from many of the Shonen I've seen because of the amount of romance that is also present in Ranma 1/2. It does follow many of the same themes of other Shonen, such as having the main character "level up" in their fighting abilities and have mini villain arcs. Ranma having the ability to turn into a girl definitely makes this manga unique, this ability is used a huge amount in this manga to lead to funny and cool situations. I think having Ranma switching gender lets this Shonen be more approachable by girls.
