Thoughts on Franken Fran?
>>
It was a really unsettling horror manga that turned into "cute girls doing weird shit" over the time.
Still pretty good though.
>>
>>157523517

English release worth bothering it or should I just stick to the free Scanlations out there?
>>
One of my favorite comedy-horrors.

All the covers were so ero, but none of that was found in the manga.
Older Sister (Gavril?) was pretty hot.
>>
>>157523585

Monster Girls before it was popularized. Gavril was a straight up Warewolf.

This reads like the series was cancelled. what happened exactly?
>>
>>157523668
This is just an extra notes page that was packaged with the last volume I believe. The mangaka had these small notes in each volume that was released.

From what I can tell it was not canceled but simply that the mangaka decided to move on to other projects. Everything is pretty episodic, yet the last chapter had a nice, bring-back-everyone kind of deal that was actually pretty cool.

One of my favorite manga, but the ending was disappointingly weak, though there's not a lot that could have been done to end this kind of series. The author needs to fucking make more Phase 20 though. Also, the VAs they used for the drama CD were fucking perfect. Koshimizu as Fran was pure gold.

Heh, no. The whole "chop off my dick and call me a woman" thing is mostly just a western meme. And Thailand. Some chucklefuck a while ago must've made that shit up for kicks and since there wasn't really any info on the author at the time everyone just believed him. People do that with doujin authors and the like all the time, baselessly claim they're actually a woman and post a random image of some chink supermodel off google as "proof". Hell, to this day there are still some idiots who think Lawrence Shindo is a woman, I think anime has just warped our expectations to the point where we're just hoping everything is a cute girl in some way or form to the point where we let ourselves believe it with excessive ease.

>Physically removed a virus from a person's body through surgery
>Performed open stomach surgery on himself in the middle of the Savannah while being attacked by wolves
>Was so baller that he flat out bought a hospital that refused to let him operate just so he could work on a single patient

At one time he took 8/9 dead baby twins & used body parts from 8 said babies to build a working body out of spare parts for the surviving child to survive on. I'd say that's pretty fucking close.

He also jerry rigged a Deer with a second brain in it's stomache once. Said deer then grew to 5 times it's normal size, became a king of a forest, & then murdered an entire construction company that was trying to build in it. Black Jack is more of a Mad Scientist than people give him credit for. Oh, also he can perform surgery in the dark.

>Don't forget operating on an Alien and succeeding.

I haven't read that one. Using a mirror to operate on a person's organs who were completely backwards was pretty impressive too. There was also that time he operated on a security system in a skyscraper to escape from a room that was slowly losing oxygen, all with only 2 scalpels.
>>

Black Jack is actually a decent person under his tough guy facade who ends up improving the lives of his patients and respects their desires and wishes and never fucks up over anyone unless it's someone who truly deserves it.

Did sewing the bodies of those 5 people who were getting off on having surgery done count as "deserving it"? Black Jack would never do something monstrous like that. Their methods are what divide the two. They both save people no matter what, but Fran's ways of accomplishing that are border line torture.

I loved this so much. The caustic humor on society was delivered incredibly on the spot and without being pedantic, thanks to the fact the author managed to avoid his characters taking sides led by shallow morality

I remember liking it, but I stopped reading it when I got to the end of the translated parts and ended up taking a permanent break. I heard some anons saying the ending was pretty disappointing so I haven't ever finished it. Is it worth it to finish it? I was about at the halfway point or maybe 3/5ths of the way in if that makes any difference.

>>157545773
That depends most heavily on how the well being of the patient factors into your assessment. Black Jack acts like he doesn't give a fuck (and in many ways he doesn't because he's a beast like that) but ultimately cares more for the patient than anything. Fran acts like she cares about the patient's best interests but it's painfully obvious from the way she conducts her business she really just cares about herself and all the fun she gets to have performing all kinds of different mad scientist things entirely at the expense of everyone else.

tl;dr, Jack acts like an asshole but is really a super cool guy. Fran acts like a super cool chick but is really a cunt.
>>
>>157552161
I think you're selling Fran a little short. She does seem to care about patients a bit when there's love involved.

Fran is the Doctor version of the salesman in a lot of respects, except sometimes things work out in the end with fran.
>>
>>157552161
Eh, part of the horror involved in Fran is that she isn't making things go bad on purpose. If she were to perform any of those experiments on herself she generally wouldn't have a single problem with it.
She mostly thinks that she's done a marvelous job and nothing she did is outside the bounds of what you asked for. That's where the true horror lies in this.

He does little cameos with his characters like that all the time. AB just happens to be immediately recognizable.

>>157552161
Fran really isn't a cunt, she's just morally challenged and/or a well meaning psychopath. She thinks that if she operates by a set of hard coded moral rules (like her extreme version of the Hippocratic oath where she thinks life is always preferable to death) the outcomes must therefore be good too.

And you know, that would be all well and good if she actually stuck to her fucking code that she pretends to hold in such a high degree of reverence, but she arbitrarily bends, modifies, or outright breaks it whenever she sees fit just like she does everything else. She stitched together a bunch of mangled bodies just to prove a point to Veronica while coercing her into servitude, using the "I'LL NEVER LET PEOPLE DIE FOR ANY REASON, DEATH IS BADDEST THING EVER" shtick, then not too long afterwards she slaughters countless sentient clones while rationalizing it as "I have a super good reason so it doesn't count this time. Also clones aren't people so you're wrong I'm right lalalala I can't hear you". Not to mention she was stupid enough to submit her image for free use to a pornographic guro production company without asking any questions or looking into the fine print, and was so butthurt by the result she basically arranged to have the director murdered even though he technically didn't do a single thing to her. But she did it in a very indirect way involving SCIENCE so that doesn't count either apparently. And that's just two examples of many.

If we get down to brass tacks, this isn't an issue of differences in ethical views at all when you consider she holds her "life is sacred" philosophy in such loose hands she can swing it like a hammer to inflict maximum suffering on someone she doesn't like, or just outright drop it entirely if it becomes too cumbersome, it's a double edged sword and she refuses to be cut by it like a child who wants to play a game but wants to be the only one who doesn't have to follow the rules, and no one at all can ever call her out on it in any way or she'll turn them into a foot and pretend she's the martyr yet again.
She's petty, childish, spiteful, hypocritical, inconsiderate, and the worst part is she tries to pretend she isn't. I've read this more than once you know, I've been onto her shit for a while now.

Is she literally a composite being? I always thought maybe she was created at the age she is & her scars are all from her taking herself apart to study human anatomy. That's my headcanon anyway.

Yeah, I guess. Probably why we never had any flashbacks of loli fran. She's most likely never had a childhood, which would explain why she's so goodhearted & misguided at the same time. I guess that's what makes her a monster. No proper moral compass due to lack of experience.

It's worse than that, she drops the moral compass she has completely whenever it's too inconvenient to hold onto. At heart she's really just an all around terrible person who sees herself as an angel, and only seems to play the part to satisfy that image of herself. But like you mentioned, that's precisely how a reanimated corpse with no proper childhood or ability to see things from the perspective of a normal sane human being would logically conduct herself.

You really want me to go through every example? If I wanted to be a dick about it I could just say every time she tried to do something positive, but caterpillar girl is a pretty good example to highlight. She wanted to test the guy and went through all that trouble just to make sure their love was the real deal, but didn't care enough not to make her into a rampaging monster in the process. And she was very clearly aware of the liability, she pretty much flat out said after the fact "I sure something terrible doesn't happen as a direct result of my involvement, oh well I helped a young couple get together, love is so wonderful." Just look at how she mentally masturbates to her delusional self image and falls to pieces when she's forced to realize she's full of shit >>157557618
I don't know if this was all intentional on the author's part, but whatever it is it's been made as clear as can be that she is nothing resembling a decent human being, and no that one chapter where she indirectly saved a kid because she was mad that they wouldn't let her save his life by turning him into a pile of screaming eyeballs doesn't magically change that.

You've got some balls calling me creepy if you're reading and enjoying manga like Franken Fran in the first place. You just end up sounding silly. Actually read the manga if you're having trouble with what I'm saying, even in the example I posted you can see just how she honestly thinks of herself as a benevolent messianic figure. She defines delusional.

Buddy I'd give all three of 'em a pussy pounding session even a Frankensteinian superhuman wouldn't forget. In Gav's case I'd at the very least give it everything I've got, horny idiot as I am I can still admit that's a whole lot of woman to take on.

I would hope so since I just dumped two walls of text explaining it. But this isn't about how the notion is silly because she's a mad scientist, it's about how she acts like a selfless humanitarian but doesn't have the stones to follow through if it's too inconvenient. Remember when she practically fed all those clones to Gavrill just to get her off her ass? Well it doesn't matter that they were sentient and capable of pain and emotion, they're clones so they don't count because fuck you I'm Fran and I make the rules, but I'm still a heroic savior and stuff. You see what I'm getting at here? Like I said it could be entirely intentional on the author's part in a tongue in cheek kind of way but that won't stop me from pointing it out. She. Is. A. Bitch.
