Why does /co/ seem to really hate this book? I thought it was pretty fun
>>83944674
I like it. I tend to here positive vibes about it here, especially in comparison to Scott Pilgrim.
>>83944674
rushed
shit ending
protagonist learned nothing
Never thought anyone here hated it the arts great and the story's damn good
>>83944738
>>83944710
This. Despite the calarts meme, I liked the Dr slump style approach to art in this book
>>83944674
I didn't even know /co/ had a position on the book.
I liked it, overall. The story was good and the art was very pleasant.
>>83944799
I never heard of this book, I just recognize the author.
But I am a pretty big Toriyama fan. What exactly is this book?
>>83944825
I guess I assumed it's stance was bad
Last time it was brought up everyone said it was bad, but I personally LOVED it, and the protagonist is pretty much me.
>>83944852
It's basically about a scientist who creates a young girl robot named arale who ironically needs glasses. There's all sorts of really wacky characters like suppaman ( a knockoff superman) that show up in the series. It even crossed over with dbz.
>>83944674
It was meh hopefully Snot Girl is better.
Fucker, I was about to make this thread. I only read up to chapter 2 or 3. Seemed ok, kinda interesting plothook. Normal O'Malley handful of likable and unlikable characters
There was a story time of this last year. I wish I could have caught it....
Bought it the first day and read the whole thing in one sitting that night because I was so immersed. It's very pretty.
The protagonist doesn't really have a completed character arc, and you could argue she "cheats" her way to a happy ending, but O'Malley himself was detached when he was finishing up the story. There's so much of his personal life jammed into the subtext, the happy ending makes me feel sad because it comes across as what Bryan thinks all people deserve to have love, even as he's undergoing a brutal divorce with a woman he's loved for years, and slowly revealed herself to be a bitch using an sjw agenda as an excuse to ruin Bryan's life.
Bryan Lee O'Malley is an overrated hack.
His wife is really cute though.
>>83945029
I meant the OP comic.
I know about Dr. SlumpI got pretty much all of the stuff Toriyama's had released in english
Best girl
>>83944674
>shitty protag with basically no character arc
>rushed ending
>she got back with her old BF in the end
The art was... cute. I guess.
I'll be looking out for Snot Girl though.
>>83945890
To add to that, nice as the art is, it's impossible for me to see the MC as a 27 year old due to it and her actions. She's insufferable.
>>83944674
All I've noticed is that it's never been storytimed here, and the only people who talk about it have read it.
>>83945890
Didn't ever know about this thanks for the heads up looks neat
>>83946024
It has when it first came out fool that when I read it
>>83945586
what?! how bad was their divorce?
>>83945586
>and slowly revealed herself to be a bitch using an sjw agenda as an excuse to ruin Bryan's life.
Care to elaborate?
>>83944674
After all this time I'm still fixated on O'Malley's ugly-ass skeleton drawings in that once scene
What is Bryan up to nowadays?
Someone please storytime this...
>>83944674
I thought it was a fun book, though I can see why people might be mad at the seemingly perfect ending.
A nice perspective on the story would be that Katie's adventure was just a really bad acid trip, as she lay in the hospital bed, since the doctor noted how they found nothing but mushrooms in her stomach.
>>83947210
He's about to release his new book in a month, it's called Snotgirl
>>83947350
Seconding, i really wanna read something like this
>>83947210
Doing a comic with Leslie Hung called Snotgirl. It's published by Image and I think it's coming pretty soon. He's also doing some other long form work but I don't think he's really talked about what it is yet.
>>83947462
>>83947350
I agree. Thirding
Couldn't finish reading 'cause of how much I disliked the protagonist.
>>83945586
Elaborate. I want to know if Ramona Flowers stopped being a huge cunt.
>>83944674
I'm mad he gave me another waifu that I know will never exist.Fuck reality.
>>83946157
>>83946160
>>83947711
From what little's been revealed on his blog, apparently she wanted to try an "open relationship", which basically translated to her fucking a dozen dudes while Bryan worked. There was also the matter that, since she also makes graphic novel/comics, she was relying on Bryan's name to push her own mediocre work (although her art's not bad), but he didn't really mind that stuff. He was just really uncomfortable about his wife never being around, and openly admitting to having sex all the time with strangers. When he brought it up, she acted insulted and wanted to divorce.

It was at one point on his RadioMaru blog. I'm trying to find it, but navigating a tumblr archive if you don't remember where the post was made is tiring.
>>83944857
>asspull guess

I'd hate you, but it's true.
>>83948468
Can't find the original post. According to radiomaru.tumblr.com/post/95871346848 it might be gone for good.
Have a rarelewdBryan art to compensate.
>>83948737
Watch it get reported and pulled, despite being completely on topic and non-pornographic (nudity and sex aren't inherently pornographic).
>>83947717
mfw this girl exists
mfw it's my 16 year old stepsister
>>83948842
So all you've gotta do is wait 2 years, lucky.

Well I never said how old I was anyway. What sucks is she'll switch between being an adorable, beautiful brown girl to acting like a dumb, spoiled blonde bitch.

>>83949632
If this anon plans to storytime the whole thing, good on him. It'll take a while
>>83949623
>>83949621

Yeah, its 300+ pages...

The protagonist has to learn something for it to be good? The other two are good reasons.
>>83945791
It's the newest comic from Scott Pilgrim creator. About a girl who runs a restaurant and gets the chance to redo her mistakes.

never got this meme of the virgin waifu. If it's not a virgin that means she fucked 200 guys.
It's like the guys who started this meme never went outside their home.

The problem with Bryan Lee O'malley's shit is that most of his works are focusing around young hipsters that live by themselves or at leat not at their parents house, with a great/decent steady job, friends and an active sex live that are still bitching about life and are all witty all the time.
Nobody can relate, it sounds more like a person bragging about their awesome lives and bitching that not everything is awesome, because they are soooo used to awesome all the time that it becomes jarring when something is not awesome
>>83955413
>>83955414
