So, another anon finished dumping the whole original series of Saint Seiya (>>146768376) in a series of threads over the past month. Inspired by that, I'm going to dump all of Gash Bell, AKA Zatch bell, since it's a criminally underrated series.

I'll be making a thread roughly around 5pm EST every day (Starting early todayf), and will post 1 volume every day until the whole run is posted..

Please refrain from making lengthy posts till I finish the volume in each thread (short replies to pages are fine), and don't post images at all till then, so the image limit isn't hit till i'm done.

>What is Gash Bell, and why should I care>?

Gash bell is a Shonen action/comedy series by Makoto Raiku. The basic plot premise is that there are 100 kids from the demon world who come into the normal world to fight until only 1 is left standing, who is crowned king.

You should give a shit about it because it has fantastic art, great humor, really good fights with great choreography that are won by tactics and planning, (for the most part), and has a lot of legitimately emotional scenes which help make the what would otherwise be generic power of friendship stuff seem genuine, since it brings characters out of legitimately depressing and sad circumstances.
>>
>Where did you get the scans from?

The scans are from Null's release of the series, which can be found on Mangasaurus, Bato,to. Their site is: http://www.n-u-l-l.net/

As far as I know, these are the best quality scans of the manga in English. I know there's a few chapters of the Faudo arc done by a Portuguese group that have even better quality/higher resolution, but that's in Portuguese and not even the whole arc is at that quality level.

Ebookjapan has the whole series purchasable digitally in japanese at a superior resolution and quality then the scans i'm using, but nobody has ripped them yet (I plan to eventually once I can afford to).
>>
>>146776561
>Hey, wait, you said Zatch bell? So this is that shitty pokemon rip off, right?

Gash bell got localized as Zatch Bell in north america around a decade ago, primarily with the anime being the big draw. The thing is, the anime is shit, even the original japanese one. It's santized compared to the manga (especially the localized version), and it outright cuts out the entire last arc. I assure you the manga is way, way better.

But admittedly, it starts out pretty rough, and most of what I said before about the reasons why it's good won't really be true untill a pretty good ways in, especially the art.

If any anon has some suggestions of how I can condense the FAQ, i'd apperciate it, BTW.

It admittedly starts out as a pretty generic shonen series. It'll be a full arc in before it really starts to get good. Not that the first 70 chapters are bad, but it's just not as remarkablee.

"Unu" is apparently one of those speech mannerism's in the japanese language that doesn't translate to other langauges.

I'm not entirely sure what it means, but in the series it's remaked later that Gash speaks in a regal manner, which that's an example of, so...

The wiki also notes

> in the original version, Zatch often ends his sentences with "(na) no da", an expression of emphasis.

Good luck dumping all that shit. Must be so dull. Have a star ⭐

That's because those were color pages so they take a toll. Hope you dump the entire series anon, I'll be following.

About the FAQ, I think you should just write something short describing the series like what I used in the OP of Saint Seiya, otherwise it's just too much text.

I'd have to see the actual line in Japanese, but most likely it's referring to using the negative form -nu instead of -nai, which is a lot more formal.

Would it really have been that hard to just Google "Gash" before making it the name of your main character?
>>
>>146779996

>>146780006
It's a japanese series, anon, do you go and google the word of something you wanna use in other languages before you decide on it?
>>
>>146777018
That was one hell of a way to start a new series
>>
>>146780051
Anyways, this early on, a lot of the power of friendship and bullying stuff seems cliche, but the series gets really adept at making legitimately sad circumstances that hit you in the gut, and then using friendship as a theme to lift characters out of the despair.

Next volume has the earliest example of it being pulled off really well.
>>
>>146780179
>>
I will never forget the dream chapter Kiyomaro has near the end
>>
I always thought it was funny how Gash had very distinctive voice actors both in English and Japanese.

In the original he has the same voice as Chopper and in the dub, he's voiced by Jimmy Neutron. It was weird as fuck.
>>
>>146780222

>>146780226
It's not near the end, really, it's right at the end of the third arc/start of the 4th/final arc.

But yeah it's pretty ridiculous.

>>146780227
I read all of gash's line in his english voice. Or my memory of his english voice, anyways, I went back and listened to it and in reality it's not as good as I remember it.

Kio suffers from it even more.

Speaking of the anime, i'd post OP's and music like the saint seiya dumper did but I don't into the anime that much because the manga is just so much better

It doesn't really get good till midway into the Ancient Mamado Arc, if not the Faudo arc.

I have dropped manga at the point when they went for some kind of a cave several years ago and has forgotten everything. Was it good at this point already or still bad, maybe I shall re-read it?
It looked to me as a shounen version of Rozen Maiden, honestly.

Took me a while but I found the source of gash getting a bluray box set. They made a whole twitter for it too (Makoto Raiku has followed and retweeted about this page before)

>>
>>146782476
There's no point in the series where they lose their memory, so IDK what you are thinking of.

Anyways, just follow along with the threads.

The series starts out kinda rough as I said in >>146782437 , but it's not bad. It just doesn't really get REALLY good till like 1-2 arcs in.
>>
>>146782573
I suppose now is a good time as any to point out the spell names aren't actually nonsense.

Each part of the spell name has a meaning, describing either the element, the nature (is it a shield, a beam, a rapid fire projectile, etc), the strength of the spell, etc.

The Zatch bell wiki has a page on this called spell nomenclature, but it's filled with spoilers.
>>
>>146782749
>>
>>146782809
To continue, I'd argue most of the localized spell names are actually more accurate to what they are supposed to be to the names used in these scans, simply because
>>
>>146782857
message got cut off:

Simply because they seem to be intended to be based in english, but there's some romanization/phonetic fuckery

Like, the scans call this one gravity spell "Gurabirei" when it's clearly meant to be "Gravirei", which is what the localization calls it. The localization also removes the "-u" suffix from basic spells which is a typical japanese language suffix thing as I understand it?
>>
>>146783040
>>
>>146783091
>>
>>146782857
Gash's happy eyes are equally amusing and creepy to look at.

>The localization also removes the "-u" suffix from basic spells which is a typical japanese language suffix thing as I understand it?
Every Japanese word ends in either a vowel or an n because that's just how their letters are. When they want to write out a foreign word, they usually end it with a u.
>>
>>146783713
>>
>>146783832

>>146783727
So then my assessment about them intending to be read so phonetically literrally and the localization being more accurate there is correct?

When I do my editing and release of the better digital volumes, I'll probably keep the spell names as they are here just because I don't want to rock the boat with the fanbase, but i'd like to include a translators note about it.

Personally i'm also curious if the "lines" Reycom here has going from his eyes down his cheek is a typical thing Japanese demons have in their mythology, because a fuck ton of demons in the series have them

Not really sure if "bastard" was the right word, feels edgier then what I think Raiku probably intended.

There's one really shameful bit near the end where whoever translated/edited these scans put a note next to kiyo talking about global warming going "LOL gues Raiku bought into that scam, fucking idiot". How fucking obnoxious do you need to be for that?

This is one of the few shonen manga (or manga in general for that matter) that I can call nearly flawless, not because it was particularly deep or complex, but because Raiku's execution of the characters and themes was pretty much perfect. In other words he accomplished everything he set up to dowith the story. God speed anon, and thank you.

>>146786977
I'm not sure I agree with that, the first arc of the series is really plodding and isn't up to the standards of quality of the ancient mamodo arc or especially the faudo and clear note arc; both in terms of the actual artwork, the fights, and the execution of the emotional stuff.

OH, SHIT

I forgot to mention back after when Reycom's book got burned: in the games and TCG he gets a few extra spells, borrowed from another ice Mamado (i'm going to use "Mamado" instead of "Demon", deal with it) later in the series, so he has more then just Gikoru and Furrisudo, which is neat.
>>
>>146789044
>>
>>146788824
The first movie was pretty good overall, pads out the time between Arc 2 and 3 a bit more. However the second movie was complete garbage overall, however the animation near the end was amazing.

>>146789098

>>146789180
New readers, take note of the doggo's behaviour here on this page, it'll be important later.

It took me fucking forever to realize that he wasn't actually deceiving gash, but that like Kolulu, he's a mamodo who didn't want to fight and his spell changes his personality

Now that I think about it, the entire premise of Fate/Stay Night is very similar to Konjiki no Gash Bell. "100 demons are paired up with human partners in a battle royal for the throne" vs "7 humans are paired with 7 servants in a battle royal for the holy grail"
Granted besides this, both stories are completely different.
>>
>>146789326
Also, even though it's just an excuse to fill Kiyo in on DA PLOTand to make Brago more threatening by curbstomping Gofure, I really love how this fight is set up with 2 different Mamodo teams incidentally running into Kiyo and Gash at the same time while they are seperated.

You don't really see this sort of thing that often in the series.

OP here, I didn't realize it would take me this long to do a single volume

I'm still going to contuniue, but yeah, I might have to split it up to half a volume a thread.

Does anybody know of a captcha stacker/image dumper extension that still works? There used to be a part of 4chan x where you couls solve like 5 captchas in a row and then load up 5 images and it would dump them for you

Kinda wish he had stayed an outcast for a while to build to this, having the payoff is good but might have felt better if we had seen him mistreated more.
>>
>>146794068
You get much better executed and fleshed out stuff like that later on with other characters, I assure you.

You already see the hints of it with sherry in >>146789044 and >>146789098

Pretty much every character in the series has a truckload of emotional baggage, and as the series goes on the author gets much much better at using it effectively.
>>
>>146793664
that just means it'll take two months though
>>
>>146794246
I'm not really concerned by how long it takes me to finish, the time per day I have to work with is more important then that.

No problem.

Really excited about volume 2, probably the single most pivotal scene of the entire series happens in it, and it features my favorite character.

Might actually have to link to the anime soundtrack just for it.

Yeah it definitely gets better than this by the end. Raiku improves tremendously.

I took the cheap way out and watched the anime only to start the manga half way through the fauldo ark. I always regretted that decision.
These dumps are just what i need.

Fantastic idea OP. I'll be following this through to the end.

Fuck, my bad.

>>146788578
This was magical. Everyone's reactions when they find out are perfect. Especially since every single Momodo considers Gash to be the absolute weakest and Brago one of, if not, the strongest.

I also love the reactions when Kanchome and Tia eventually meet too.
>>
>>146808793
I thought the bit where Kieth talks about "The Big 4" modern demon kids (Brago, Zeon, Eldrazor, Aushuron) and then Bari goes "Oh yeah btw I fucking BTFO'd Eldrazor" is a better version of that setup.
>>

You shouldn't. Just make the dump at a committed time so that anons can track your threads down easier. Making long posts about the manga's 'good' points while dumping images is unnecessary. It also makes the readers set higher expectations and becomes more of a problem in the future.
Anyway, thanks for doing this.

>>146779026
Damn the uguu~ eyes still bother me. Now I know why I didn't read this manga.

>>146823556
The art improves dramatically further into the series. Gash bell's biggest flaws is most of it's strongest points, like the great art and tactical battles and the other stuff I mention in >>146776501 ; is that the first arc doesn't really demonstrate it.

On that note, once again, I got up early today, so i'm going to start early again:
