Dumping Asano Inio's New Manga
hmmm lemme guess two youngsters have sex and are depressed?
>>155733217
I think you might be onto something
>>155733217
Life is shit, news at 11.
Nice art as usual, keep on dumping.Saw about his new series but thought no group is doing it.
>>155733362
Is that really the best thing they could get out of Asano?
>>155733826
>t. 23 year old
>>155733185
So it's both their manga or just Asano's? I like their stuff but I hate marketing talk.
>>155734276
They're publishing two new series in the same magazine at the same time, dumb ESL poster.
>>155734276
It seems the magazine wants to pit them as "rivals" by Serializing their new manga in a single issue
>>155733362
>I consider the works of Asano-san to be very important "competition"
>Right after Oshimi-san's "Flowers of Evil" release, people kept recommending it to me... and the whole time I just kept thinking how I absolutely didn't want to read and kept my distance
Poor Oshimi.
>>155733185
Oh look more pretentious crap loved by nonce normalfags. Good
>>155733952
Nice looks
>>155734313
I just refuse to read marketing talk.
>>155733185
>Inio's New Manga
YOU FUCKING HACK GO BACK TO FINISHING DEAD DEAD DEMONS IT'S UNIRONICALLY GOOD
Can't upload a page, 4chan says it contains an embedded file,
>>155735283
imgur?
>>155733185
Hopefully it'll be better than that DeDeDe crap.
>>155735097
>>155735346
Duality of Man.
>>155733185
Asano Inio > Oshimi Shouzo
proof me wrong
>>155734521
>I only read manga that pander to otaku culture
You're missing out a lot.
>>155734076
The entire chapter is about how he's depressed and hates manga
>>155735590
>tfw no gentle butterface prostitute gf
Actually I don't know what I'm feeling right now
>>155733185
>>155733362
is this the guy from I Am A Hero?
>>155735716
nope, he was the guy from punpun and solanin
>>155735716
No. The author of I Am A Hero is Kengo Hanazawa.
>>155735716
No. Asano is the author of Oyasumi Punpun, Solanin, etc. While Oshimi is the author of Aku no Hana, Boku wa Mari no Naka, etc.
Both has a realistic artstyle and often wrote nihilistic stories that's kinda similar with I Am A Hero.
>>155735786
>>155735806
>>155735771
Yeah but I'm pretty sure he appeared as a character in the later volumes of the manga
>>155735410
such a dig at HxH fans
>>155733185
Nice typesetting anon, you could've fooled me into thinking this was an English magazine.
>>155734076
>>155735679
So is it a reflection of the author's opinion on his life?
I like his works, but this really seems like his reused always depressed fed up with his life protag again.
>>155736303
You should read the interview he did after Punpun. He doesn't seem as cynical as his protagonists are.
>>155736344
Looks like Higashimura Akiko's style.
As long as Dead Dead Demons keeps on going, I won't autistically shitpost in an impotent outpouring of misplaced wrath.
>>155736625
This is what happens when you draw deepshit instead of moe girls.
Thanks for the Scanlators for Translating this. I will dump the Chapter 2 next
>>155737003
>The edgy new series
>>155737306
oh no he's a pedo isn't he
>>155737538
>implying that's a problem in Japan
>>155735684
>butterface
That word is supposed to be used to imply they have a good body despite the ugly face, you know.
Is this the version uploaded to bato?
The translation of that is a bit off; reads like the translator doesn't understand some grammar and relied on a text hooker for some kanji.
I wish Hox would just be the official translator of Asano tbqh.
>>155737735
yeah its the same.
Hox is like one of the best scanlators out there, his taste is god tier
Can't upload the final
With this the dump ends. Hope the translation continues or Hox picks this upSorry for the dump taking a long time, my internet is shit
>>155738301
Thanks, enjoying it so far.
>>155738301
thanks anon
>>155738301
Thanks! I am always excited to get some new Asano to read.
>>155738301
Thanks for posting it anyway, had read the first chapter a while ago and I wouldn't have known the second was scanned otherwise
>>155738301
thanks OP
>>155736303
No, he's just kind of an asshole, especially for a Jap.
He's not as bad as what he writes, he's just admittedly jaded (in life and the manga industry) and is willing to go on record with that.
Ballsy guy.
>>155733217
Why would Asano make a Flowers of Evil ripoff?
>>155733185
So another autobiographical manga huh. About time.
>>155736778
Good. They barely spend time together and married just for conventional reasons.
>>155738886
I get the sense this is probably a fictionalized version of himself
>>155738751
have you read Inio's Umibe no Onnanoko, that shit is much better than edgy Flowers of Evil.
thanks op
Should I start reading Dead Dead Demon now or wait until it ends?
>>155739003
I'm in the same boat. Had been waiting since it started for it to build up some steam or come to an end to start in on it I know I'll like it as I tend to like Asano, and have read some snippets here and there which I was really pleased with, plus the post-punpun interview where he talks about his mindset around the time he started drawing it. "Life sucks so here's some cute girls to help you forget," but Asano-ized.
Of course it's on fucking hiatus now. I want to die.
>>155738301
Chifuyu?
>>155738301
Thanks anon.
read through this, expecting good things
>>155737355
They sure know their audience.
Solanin was good. This is complete shit. Guess this is an autobiography of some sort.
>>155738301
THANK
>>155733185
So with Shuuzou writing a new manga for this magazine does that mean Happiness is completed or on hiatus?
>>155737205
Being depressed yet buying Apple Products garners zero sympathy from me.
>>155733952
i'd fuck that asano, no homo
>>155733185
If you want to make a sympathetic protagonist, you don't make someone who can easily replace a broken Mac like nothing or regularly afford prostitutes.
This guy clearly isn't poor. His house doesn't look like a super shit place to live in either.
Someone being pissed he has writer's block doesn't make for a very good story in my opinion.
And you can clearly see why MC is pissed all the time.
It is because this faggot doesn't know how to close his eyes and look away from the computer screen.
He keeps reading twitter and 2chan or 2channel and shit.
Like, if you are gonna take a break, don't spend it in the office or get mad at your wife.
Go like take a cheap vacation somewhere.
I heard Taiwan is a favorite destination for people who want cheap vacations.
Like it seems Taiwan is a favorite grad trip for people who live in Singapore for example.
This guy just needs to ride a plane for 90 minutes and he will be in Taiwan where he can fuck around and get some new ideas for any new manga he wants to make.
>>155742068
Why would you assume to protagonist is intended to be sympatethic?
>>155739003
>>155739205
Just read it. It's not like enough good manga currently exist worth reading over DDDD.
>>155742348
>>155742068
And why can't you sympathize with a person just because he can afford a mac?
>taiwan
Yeah he could blow ladyboys there but I thought you were criticizing him for doing that earlier?
>>155739276
Didn't realize either,it's her name
>>155739646
>Solanin
Was genuinely bad. I give no shits about musicians that grew up in an era when music wasn't as wide spread as it is today. You can listen to your 'alternative' rock that is just as commercialized as any other song that plays on the radio. Also radio's suck because their sound quality suck. I'm so glad we moved past these relics.
>>155738301
thanks op
>>155742552
I don't give a shit about music in general either but that wasn't what solanin was about.
>>155742847
Solanin wasn't about music?
>>155743049
You sure are a genius.
>>155743963
What?
>>155734164
same
>>155735820
No, the author drew an illustration of him once.
>>155737538
Well Inio Asano has made a bunch of other short stories with older guys having relationships with teenagers.
Is this the first time Asano has drawn an actual beautiful girl?
>>155733362
Holy shit, poor oshimi.
inb4 oshimi will make a sort of nihilistic version of Sakaguchi's RIN with Asano as the rival.
>>155745208
You mean Sakuishi?
>>155745795
Yep, meant Harold Sakuishi.
>>155737538
>really ugly highschool girls
>pedo
You keep using that word
So did someone translate Oshimi's work?
>>155745115
No.
>>155745926
Yandere mom series? Yes.
