Nihei should draw a harem manga. Would you read it?

>>140495205
He already did

>>140495205
Yes.

>>140495205
>the harem actually stopped at that chapter
Thanks a lot Tsunbot

Ni who?

This.

He needs to return to his fucking roots. An artist is always the worst judge of their work, and Nihei seems to constantly judge his past stuff as perpetually worse. He's retarded for doing that. Blame/Abara are and always will be his best works if he keeps trying to "improve".

What a trainwreck. I only ever wanted to see more of my dear Captain.

>>140498335
Even though Sidonia was a trainwreck, at least it wasn't fucking Biomega.

The harem antics in Sidonia were pretty fun.

>>140498757
The funny part is if you try to explain it further it gets even more confusing.

Did Nihei get over depression or something, what happened? Why do these mangaka keep getting over depression?

He's not retarded for being critical of his own work. Do you know why an artist is the worst judge of their work? Because they know their work better than anyone else, and they can see even the most subtle differences in drawings just a year or two apart that maybe a viewer wouldn't--yes, even viewers that are artists themselves. Imagine how Nihei must feel looking at art from a decade or more ago.

It's fine if you prefer his old stuff, but undermining him as an artist because you don't like what he does know is insulting, and just makes you come off as entitled instead of appreciative of the stuff you DO like.

Anyway, hell yeah I would, OP.

>they know their work better than anyone else
hahahaha, what a joke
because the art is part of the author, right?
you have what we call a pre-18th century mentality re: art

You are automatically your worst critic - worst meaning most ineffective and inaccurate. Ask any artist, no matter how acclaimed or dignified, and they will whine and bitch and complain about how their work is shit. James Joyce, Mamoru Oshii, Dostoyevsky, Franco Corelli, van Gogh - all of these people had/have negative things to say about virtually all of their own works. Unlike Nihei, the majority of all artists - the above included - can recognize that it's not actually shit, they just perceive it as that because they're the creator, and continue to make whatever it is they want.

More often than not, an artist's body of work is determined by the viewers' responses. Not in the sense of "positive or negative", but in more detailed qualifications. Mangum does not want to create another album because he believes that the songs are more than 'his' now. Again, determined by viewer response. Nihei refuses to adhere to that, and just does what he thinks is right based solely on his opinion. Hate to tell you (and him) this, but a thousand people telling one person that x is bad means far more than that one person telling themselves that x is bad. If you disagree with that, you can go to hell and chat it up with Milton Babbitt for a fiery eternity.

wasted potential

\thread

It also was his worst work

>>140496619
>>140505292
>>140506540
Like it was his own judgement.
Storywise, he said he was tired of relatives and friends telling him they didn't understand what he wrote, so he gradually dumbed down his works hoping to be understood.

Drawingwise yeah, he said that he was tired of all those dark tones and felt that lighter tones would fit better a story like Sidonia.
He also joked about saving money because of the less ink.

>Yeah, I wanted the art to have a Tezuka-level mass appeal.

>edgy shitheads/BLAME-fags will deny this

>>140505354
More like Nihei trolling the hell out of shippers. I get the feeling he probably gotten a lot of hate mail from them after the tentacle monster had won the bowl and did this to piss them off. I mean, we know he can do romance, so this seems very deliberate.

>>140508499
Well, he sold a lot more Sidonia than all of his other work, so he's gotten the mass appeal part down.

I pity those who have her as a waifu.

>>140495205
Sidonia is already haremshit and the ending is fucking shit. Should have ended it after the hoshijiro fight.

>>140505628
One of the best things coming out of S2, and there are not many.

>>140508499
>Tezuka-level
That means his shits will get shittier?

>>140509302
I liked her as a girl and a man. I always thought her brother was one of the more attractive male characters and she looks like him now.

Will he continue to do the same and distant himself from the certain fan base he built since Blame?
