Well that's really fucking depressing.

>tfw we will never get a translated Chapter 0
Its a damn shame indeed.
>>84448599
Good things never happen
>>84447601
I wonder if there's a possibility that something like a comparatively small printing run via kickstarter funded solely by fans who wanted a copy would work? There's no risk of losing money since the printing run is funded and a copy of the final product is paid for all at once, there would just need to be enough people that want a copy.
>>it's my inadequacy
>mfw
fuck i hate it when good artists beat themselves up
>>84449474
>fuck i hate it when good artists beat themselves up
Agreed
>>84449474
I was thinking of that myself, and I'd hope he'd be interested in something like that. Hey, the There She Is!! guy did it, why can't Sho?
Sho really shouldn't beat himself up, it's not his fault people have shit taste and don't read anything other than garbage.
Also
>Tfw Pandemonium anime is a most likely never ever
>>84449486
>>84449474
In all honesty. If a fan says its good and they enjoyed it thats okay and all, but when big wigs, people in power and sales say its bad, unsellable, shit, it will take the artists down 10 thousand times worse than a random reader saying something good.
>>84451153
I think it might be a fear of failure on his part too.
I mean, Americans generally don't buy books, let alone graphic novels, and I'm not sure about the UK.
>>84448599
Awhile back I had this translated.
>>84451289
Not sure just how accurate it is, but still.
>>84451302
End
You'd really think he'd be a lot more popular than he is.
>>84447601
Japanese comics go on /a/
>>84452166
It's both /a/ and /co/
What sort of comic is this exactly? What is it about, where is it available?
>>84452218
It's kinda like an Americanized (Left to right instead of right to left) manga with beautiful art.
You can read it here: http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Pandemonium-Majutsushi-no-Mura
It has a bit of a description there.
I highly recommend it.
>>84447601
Well shoot.
>>84449474
>>84451056
So who wants to suggest this idea to him?
>>84454876
I did anonymously earlier, never know if he'll actually read it or consider it though.
I'd definitely fund it though, and I'd hope a lot more would too. Shame it's so obscure.
>>84447601
Okay, what is this and where can I read it?
Is it on his tumblr?
>>84457713
Pandemonium Wizard Village, and no, but it is on his DeviantART, though I posted a link to the comic earlier >>84452265
anyone have the downloads that were on his old site?
Damn, this style and art is incredible.
someone start a god damned kickstarter or something
>>84459526
It really is.
>>84452199
I thought it was Korean? Korea is /co/ related, /a/ is ONLY Japanese stuff.
>>84459592
I'm fairly certain it's Japanese.
>>84457453
I love that these are linked.
>>84447601
I don't get what the problem is. Because it wasn't popular in Japan no company will translate it?
They translate doujin all the time I thought.
>>84459592
You need to learn to spot kanji and kana, son.
>>84459664
I can't even manage the other Latin-based languages.
>>84459692
It's easy enough to spot the differences. Korean is very geometric and boxy with lots of circles and squares everywhere, chinese has a shit ton of flowing complex characters, and japanese has the same complex characters but also really simple looking ones as well that are used phonetically.
Basically if it looks like a robot made it, it's korean. If it looks like it could be written really elegantly with a brush, it's chinese or japanese. And between those two, if it looks super condensed and complicated, it's chinese.
>>84459653
I think Sho probably assumes it'd sorta be a waste to spend the money getting it published because he thinks it wouldn't make money back.
>>84459702
>>84459631
>>84459669
>>84459702
Why is domika so perfect /co/?
>>84459808
That's not bad actually
>>84460015
She's Grade A cute.
I wish I were stupid rich so that I could just angel invest into talented people like this, without any need of seeing a profit. One of you fuckers better win the Powerball and make it happen, the comic industry would be a lot better off.
Domika is too pure. I had a dirty thought about her once and felt guilty for weeks.
>>84460152
Believe me, if I had millions of dollars that I could spend freely and not have to worry of it running out, I'd fund the fuck out of Sho. How an artist like him can go unrecognized is an awful tragedy.
>>84460196She's meant only for Zipher, for he protected her smile.
I do wish that there were more people that drew fanart instead of one faggot who ships his OC with a character from the comic to an obsessive amount.
>>84447601
Eh, I think an indie publisher would jump on it once they read it. It's the kind of mediocre story with enough appeal for one.
>>84457751
Thanks
>>84460593
I want more fanart of Tits. Lots of lewd fanart.
>>84460830
Fanart for it barely exists as it is.
>>84447601
We don't need more furryshit, this is a good thing
>>84462155
It really isn't furshit.
You should give it a chance.
>>84462212
It's okay, but let's not pretend it's not furshit. Not with them titties flying around.
>>84462252
>Japanese anthropomorphic characters the same as Western furry
Also Japan's all about big titties, nothing new.
>>84462252
That's on one character, who is only really in one chapter and shows up in the background here and there in crowd shots otherwise.
Most of the story is about a barrel-shaped cat and an armadillo version of Olive from Popeye.
>>84462320
I mean pangolin. My bad.
>>84449474
>kickstarter
doujin people are frequently unwilling for some goddamn reason or other to set foot off their beaten traditional paths to publication. disregard for crowdfunding is one example, but it's even crazier in videogames where you'll see lone developers or small teams spend years on a game, develop something really unique and technically impressive, and then sell like 50 burned CD-R copies of it at comiket and when a big publisher doesn't contact them with a salaried job offer they just go "oh well i guess it was never meant to be ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ " and totally ignore the fact that Steam exists and it is retardedly easy to get basically anything greenlit.
>>84462557
>wanting to shill out to Steam
>>84462288
There really is no difference
>>84447601
Could try Seven Seas Entertainment
>>84462676
Steam should accept digital comics. I would buy it.
I'm so glad this thread introduced me to this. Is there any way to support the artist
>>84458963
bump
>>84463841
Probably just buy the Japanese or French versions from Amazon or whatever, not really sure though, he doesn't have a donation thing.
>>84468425
Where can I buy this? I've checked all the foreign Amazon sites, can I get a link?
this is the first I've seen of the comic. Is this all on the artiest deviant page? or is it just someone translating his work?

Here are the size comparisons, if it interests you.
>>84469792
I believe it's a semi-official translation, though the English version came out as the Japanese version did on the Ikki-para site before it closed for whatever reason. Those sketches though are only on his Tumblr, I believe.
>we will never have other of Sho's works translated
>>84474099
Also depressing.
>>84447601
What kind of defeatist mentality is this? Just because your country didn't care doesn't mean someone else isn't interested
>>84474910
I'd imagine it'd be hard not to blame yourself when you put out something and it underperforms, which makes me wonder how well it did in France. I do hope he reconsiders.
>>84474910
I think he meant that to say no US/UK-based publishers see it as a profitable endeavor since it didn't sell very well in Japan.
Obviously it won't get picked up because it doesn't have the proper regulated anime style
>>84475568
Which really just tells you how stagnated the industry is
>>84475568
that only applies for moeshit

He's too good of an artist to even think that.
>>84452199
The beef here is just that; One Punch Man and WataMote also began as webcomics but they're not allowed on here nor ever had threads centered around them much on /co/ in the first place.

>>84451184
>>84451056

OPM and WM aren't anthropomorphic animals, either. It's hard to label Pandemonium.
>>84472931
hory shet
>>84476108
It applies to everyshit,
Haven't you seen those comparisons of manga art versus anime art? All unique artistic nuances/traces of the mangaka are smoothed out to great the blandest most assembly line looking shit possible. It's infuriating.
>>84479560
What animal is this supposed to be?
>>84479610
An armadillo, I think; or at least partially.
Maybe if he was less lazy and didn't indulge in shortcuts like sidemouth he'd be published already.
>>84479610
She's called a variant, but I think she's a fennec/pangolin mixed with some kind of bird.

I could have sworn this comic had its own website a while back. Was it taken down when it became published?
I guess I could read it on a manga site or their deviantart
>>84483376
>I could have sworn this comic had its own website a while back
Ikki-para maybe? It got closed down for whatever reason.
I've linked it a couple times in this thread, if you're interested.
>>84483417
do you have the downlaods that were on that site?
i dont want to read online
>>84483564
Afraid not, sorry.
>>84447601
Fuck, I shouldn't have been reading this in an emotionally fragile state, got a bit teary eyed near the end there...
>>84485013
That just means it pulled you in enough to make you emotional. That's a good thing.That last chapter is pretty brutal, but hey, happy ending was nice, right?
>>84470007
Honestly I just might buy the french versions. I'm in europe anyway
>>84485075
They're really nice and high quality, plus you get the extra comic at the end of the second book, and the first book has concept art and sketches at the end, which are really neat.
>>84447601

>>84490825
>>84491685
It really is great.
>>84487665
>>84492439
I actually had a tiny bit of discussion going on /a/ the other night, most said it was a pretty good read and that the art was great.
>>84492834
When I look at her... I just know she did nothing wrong.
>>84487665
What other works has Sho done? Also whats his full name, that way i can just search for his works.
>>84493643
Sho Shibamoto, and he has, but I think Pandemonium's the only one to get translated.
>>84493564
I shouldn't be this unreasonable attracted to a furry like this...
>>84493898
Sho draws a lot of cute girls.

Right. As the RWBY manga goes on /a/? Wait, it's still somehow /co/ shit.
>>84496305
Nice.
>>84495479
Those niggas are bitter like bloody Hell over it but at one point a mod said that it can be discussed on there.
>>84496305
Bueno
>all these complaints about the author's statement
It's what Japanese sounds like when translated literally.
It's also how a educated Americans wrote as well, long before boomers freed their generation to as degenerate and selfish as possible.
>>84496794
Can you blame them, RWBY is an eyesore and deserves to be hated by all.
So what's the story about, or do you just care about the fur waifu
>>84496989
Yeah. I'm honestly baffled how long it took to get that general off of here, and even then it's still a common sight on /co/.
>>84497083
The actual quality of the source material doesn't matter to shippers.
>>84497013
It's actually quite compelling and has a good story and good characters, you should give it a read.
>>84459692

Someone post when she was in Poppy, I can't remember when it was. A crowd scene as I recall.
>>84498246
It was Domika and Zipher, not Kayoh, as far as I'm aware.
>>84498362
Nah, later on. I can't find it now.
>>84480933
She's a fusion based off of a particular slavic folklore creature called the Kikimora.
It's really obvious when you compare traditional portrayals of them with her outfit and posture in the design sketches here >>84485110

Shame she has a completely autistic furry that's absolutely obsessed with her.Not to mention making a profit off of her despite it not even being his character.

Huh, I dunno why I didn't pick up on that. I even knew what they were
>>84499368
>that guy constantly shipping his boring self insert fursona with her
God, don't remind me.
>>84499626
The worst thing about it how it's pretty much inescapable when you go to look up Pandemonium. This is one of the only things I liked by him, mainly because it doesn't feature his awful character.
>Pretty much draws the exact same thing day after day
>Has over a hundred pictures of that shit
If that's not pathetic, I don't know what is.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that can't stand him.

>>84499755
Did he think she had dragon hands or something when coloring? No offense, just curious, as I've seen multiple people draw her hands green.
>>84500134
Well is there colour ref of Domika anywhere? Most people doing colour pieces of those characters are just guessing.
>>84500553
the final page in the comic as well as the physical copies have colour so they can be used for reference.
Both examples were posted in this thread btw.
>>84500641
Okay, but I should probably point out that the fan art in question was done before the release of the final chapter.
>>84500771
I'm sure the author must've made pieces featuring her in full colour prior to the completion of the comic, but even then i see your point since i'm certain they would have been hard to find back then.
>>84500771
True. I mean just look at >>84498362 for instance,Zipher still has both of his eyes.
Is there anywhere I can read this translated? I'm enjoying the art style just looking through this thread.

All good. Just want more people to read it, find it to be a shame it doesn't get the amount of attention and interest it deserves.
>>84459859
We could convince Sho to run a Kickstarter or an Indiegogo. If the minimum requirement is low enough, he could get it translated, then self-publish through a small house, send lower tier backers digital copies, softcover for other backers... it could work.
>>84502249
I hope he'd consider doing something like that, I'd definitely be on board. We can only hope at this point, Japanese have a lot of pride, and considering Sho blames himself for it not doing well, it doesn't look too good, which is really sad.
Japanese comcis belong on /a/. Please fuck off.
>>84502487
>get posted on /co/, gets told to fuck off to /a/
>gets posted on /a/, gets told to fuck off to /b/

Give OP this one Chinese webcomic, man.
That was so sweet.
>>84503250
The ending? Yeah, it is.
>>84504047
I would rather it was more complete. Like they finding the reason why meteors (if they are that) were falling from the sky.
>>84502447
One also has to remember even looking for a print house, getting a good deal, ensuring quality and figuring out logistics involved in a crowd-funded campaign are take plenty of work to begin with, and even more so for someone like Sho who not only doesn't live in the target territories but doesn't even speak fluent english.
Only way I could see it happening is if the western fanbase really pull together and organize themselves to show interest in a big way, enough to ensure him it's worth a try.
>>84504110
They aren't meteors, they're just mysterious beings.
Honestly, to be fair, the story isn't about the Sky's Lost Children, it's about Zipher.I do wish it had an extra chapter or two, maybe about Zipher and Anna, though I also would have liked to see her funeral the morning Zipher left the village, but then it might ruin the surprise of Schritt and Zipher and Domika getting together and having a kid.
>Tfw there will never be a Pandemonium anime
>>84504628
Problem is too that people aren't exactly going out to buy hard copies of books anymore at places like Barnes & Nobles. If it did happen, it just might be exclusive to something like Amazon.
>>84479419
That has much more to do with making the designs animation-friendly than it does with intentionally making shit look tamer and samey. Issues of consistency between different staff members, high time-cost of certain elements like weight variation, and some stylistic choices that just don't look well in movement all play a role when the decision is made to tame down the style of the source material. If you want to keep the unique look of the original or a fitting equivalent you usually have to throw tons of money at it like with Hellsing Ultimate or you need really talented animators and directors like with OPM and Mob Psycho.
>>84504110
It seems like Sho has plenty of stories imagined that take place in this setting, and Wizard Village was just never really meant to explore that specific element of the world too deeply.
I think the Sky beings get some more play in the beetle rabbit comic.
>>84462676

Good on you, anon.
Last bump before bed
How do I order from Japanazon or Francazon if I can't the languages?
as much as I'd like a kickstarter for a physical book, I'm not sure how logistical it would be for him. You can't open a kickstarter project if you're from japan, you'd need a representative ion america or something
>>84510470
I'm sure the DA crowd would be of some use.
>>84507265
And it's important work.

Just read the entire thing. It was good as fuck. Loved the art and the story. Woul be 100% willing to put some money behind this

Well maybe if he were better he wouldn't have to beat himself up so much
>>84449474

Fuck off, tripfag.
>>84461143seeing my art posted here feels so weird
>>84515776
It's good art.
>>84513907
Glad you liked it, anon.
I loved this comic and I love Sho's art and it pains me to know that the printed comic didn't do so well.
>>84517082
I feel like it was because of a lack of advertising or something. I'd imagine more people would have bought the comic if they knew it existed in the first place, I mean, just look at how many people in the thread I've gotten to read it despite some probably never hearing about it before.
>>84510222
Use your brain to recognize all the steps to make a purchase the way like you do in Burgerazon and click the same buttons.
Or see if you can change the language.
>>84517454
True.
>>84518653
Still, it's a huge shame. It really is quite unique.
Might be my last bump, sorry I couldn't keep this thread going that strong or possibly any longer.
>>84520368

Not quite perfect taste though.
>>84524241
I wanna rip his style off so bad.
You guys wouldn't bitch about that or hold it against another comic, would you?
>>84524033
The only good one is the one with Zipher and Domika, the rest feature his terrible self-insert.
Just finished reading it. I enjoyed the story a lot, the characters were adorable and the moments were touching. I like how after reading the ending, a lot of scenes have a change of feeling.
Also I was hugely dissapointed that there were only 12 chapters. After seeing a picture with 2 books on this thread, I assumed the story continued.

There always was.
/co/ is where furfags come to talk about comics and toons ;^)
You don't even know why furfags were originally banned and why, you're just another mindlessly obeying newfag.
>>84524474
Yeah, but there was a new chapter each month, but I do wish there was an extra chapter or two.
>>84524652
When did it finish? Is there are any other content in the same universe from the author?
>>84524748
Think it ended in like 2014 or something. I originally found out about it last year in November or December.,and not that I know of.

Just a shame most of it comes from one furry autist that's only interested in forcing his self insert OC donut steel with Molte.
>>84524508
>funny animals is a genre in the comics and cartoons.
>cartoons had always used anthropomorphic animals, see Mickey mouse or Bugs bunny.
How is /co/ not a furry board?
>>84525646
because the /co/ mods are some of the most anti-furry people on 4chan funnily enough
>>84525707
The thing is that weeabos and furries are natural enemies, reason why 4chan have a tradition of hating furries,and is a good thing.
But what I was trying to say is that /co/ is more like a "pro-furry" board.
>>84525919
It's funny how the godfather of manga was a massive furry too.
Because of this thread,i drew kayoh again
>>84516310
Thank you!
>>84526311
Nice work mate
I bought the two books but I can't read them
>>84514023
So how's your manga coming along? Oh you don't have the talent to even start? Shame.
>>84525919
Weebs hate fur drama, as we all do.
Furshit got banned before /co/ was even created dumbass.
Remember, it's only furshit if you hate it, otherwise it's "kemono."
>>84525919
neo-a/ is far form old /a/ as /co/mblr is to old /co/
>>84525919
Not really, most of the weebs (and japs) enjoy cute furries as much as anyone else would. They usually just ignore you if they're not impressed...
>>84526883
>literally just "beast/animal" in moonspeak and means furry for art categorizing
At least the Jap furries have better color use/combination that the neon sparkle shit we usually see in western furries. Unfortunately the trade off is since they're japs there's a much higher percentage of farting/pissing/shitting art.
>>84527081
>higher percentage
Kek, not even.
Western furries are the true degenerates, never forget.
Most of the shit labeled kemono is literally same animu shits with colored skin and a tails/ears anyway.
>>84527163
May I just add that the generic western furry, cartoon ppl with animal heads are just as... generic and unimaginative.
>>84447601
So what's the main driving force to why we can't get this fucking thing stateside i which every now and the. Some big published would I dunno let people vote in so they can get this stuff stateside
>>84527770
Comic books are niche as fuck, manga over here is primary driven by anime merch.
About the only place this might fit is indie comix, and it wasn't a hit in Japan so there is no reason they'd even think about licensing it overseas in the first place.
>>84477596
Fuck me, I feel like >>84460196 right now.
>>84526311
Great job, anon
>>84528338
I almost want to be that guy and never read the comic, just so my impure thoughts can stay unchanged.
>>84529007
You should. As others said, it's a great read.
>>84529007

>Is there are any other content in the same universe from the author?
Yes, but it's only available in physical book form and in japanese. Altho there used to be a free sample on the Ikki Para site.
I tried to get my hands on it when I bought the Pandemonium books but by then it was out of stock everywhere.

>aren't
I'd like someone to recreate this but with Zipher
>Tfw there's so little art of Zipher/Domika actually together
>>84544402
>anti-snout.
to be fair that sentiment is caused by monstergirl fags trying to find some way to differentiate themselves from furfags so that they can still give em shit while still getting of to their weird porn. so they to find somewhere to draw the line no matter how trivial it is.
and I have to clarify that if they get off to women that are mostly human with some minor animal characteristics then it's not furry at all, but if the women are 50% or have large amounts of their body be animal then you have to admit that it's a least a bit furry. it's kinda like someone that jacks off to futa it's not full blown gay but it is at least a bit gay. just because the penis is attached to a woman it doesn't invalidate the fact that she has a penis.

>>84549799
You talkin' shit about my waifu?
How popular was this comic in Japan? Did it sell well enough for the author? I would like to give at least a bit of support to him now
>>84552813
Did you even read the OP?
>>84553455
He says "didn't hit" which I assume he means "wasn't overly popular", but the comic has french translations and people who read it generally enjoy it, so that must mean the author got compensated for his work with money and followersm thats what Im asking info about.
Didn't the comic had a following during development? Also, why is it left to right instead of the normal manga style of right to left?
>>84549799
>Krystal
>Kemono
She was made by Brits
>>84553860
Probably designed by Japs though, in the same way that the original Starfox was developed in the UK but designed in Japan

Nah she was already in Dinosaur Planet and that was all Rare
>>84557928
cute
Is this like lackdaisy but in cool?

OH shit what, it was actually released in my native language (french)? I had no idea. I should probably go and order those right now.
>>84456428
You know, I never got if they become canon OTP or no...
>>84561916
Did you read the last chapter?
>>84545484
>Hands too big to fit in the sleeve
That's a nice detail there.
What animal bit is her arm anyways? Got a feeling that this comic won't elaborate on it, currently nearing the end of chapter 2.
>>84561916Considering they have a child together and Zipher admits his love for Domika at the end, as well as becoming an actual family, they totally did become canon OTP.
>>84562337
>Schritt
>HerSchritt is a mix of whatever Domika is and Zipher.
>>84563515
See?
>>84560808
I think just Pandemonium.
>go to the author's tumblr expecting news about a new story on the works or pandemonium questions
>it's mostly big titted furry stuff and pseudo rainbow dogs
Did pandemonium do so bad that the guy quitted making comics?
>>84564273
Sho's always drawn big tiddies, he's Japanese, what do you expect?
He does do occasional sketches, but very rarely now it seems, and the last time he drew an actual picture of Pandemonium was like, January.
>>84564273
Also, there is an actual Tumblr for Pandemonium.
http://wizardvillage.tumblr.com/
It occasionally gets updated.
He also has a Twitter: https://twitter.com/hi6sho
;_;
>>84564360
>Sho's always drawn big tiddies, he's Japanese, what do you expect?
That doesn't bother me, what does is the lack of news about more comic works, I'm being entitled here, but I really enjoyed the story and would like to see more of him. It doesn't have to be about pandemonium, artists have to eventually move on after a work is completed.
Another thing is that with name and obscurity, it's very hard to find any past discussions about this. Such quality comic with so little following makes me legitimately sad.
>>84564611
There are a few pictures there that I haven't seen elsewhere, thank you.
>>84565342
He does do updates for his other series, but I can't remember where exactly.
This is more of an archive, I suppose, but there is the occasional mention.
http://hi6s.tumblr.com/
His DeviantART also mentions updates sometimes, too.
But yeah, it really is sad that such a great artist like Sho is pretty much ignored, though he did release this sometime ago.
>>84565342
I think it's even sadder than the only person that draws consistent fanart is also someone that has an unhealthy obsession with one of the characters, ships his shitty self-insert OC with her, treats her as his own character (Which, a lot of people that don't know about her source material, do think it's his own character). and even tries making a profit off of her.
>>84563515
I wanna stick it up the lovely little brother's poop chute
>>84566168
Schritt's not for sex
>>84564273

What is it about? It doesn't seem to have the same atmosphere than pandemonium, but looks neat.
>>84560808
Alright I came back from the local library, didn't have any in stock but I ordered the two pandemonium books. I should get them in 7-10 days, I'm excited.
>>84565659
I don't think pathetic is a good enough word to describe that guy

>>84447601
There is no justice in this world
>>84570484
>Actually tried to imply that his shit OC and Molte were childhood friends
Reason enough to hate him
>>84570837
First time I saw that tumblr I thought maybe his oc was supposed to beCrain's sonor something
And now I really want to see that
>>84571474
Nope, says his OC's patents are Vietnamese or some shit. He's just a faggot self-inserter, nothing redeeming about him.
>>84571596

>>84449486
>fuck i hate it when good artists beat themselves up
dude was clearly trolling for (You)s
>>84573187
I wish I knew, I have a feeling not even Sho really likes him much anymore. I mean, he's been doing this for well over a year, and when you go to search for the comic, this autist's art is one of the first things people see, it's truly like an infection on Tumblr. He's gotten a couple people calling him out on his shit, but all he does is change the subject because he's a furry who can't handle criticism or anything that goes against his head-canon.
>Says he tries to differentiate himself from his shameless self-insert
>Obviously can't and is just a lonely fuck that wants to ruin something for everyone because he's too much of a faggot to keep it to himself
>Treats characters like Molte and Domika from Pandemonium as if they're his characters and only occasionally mentions that he didn't create them, but still misleading people into thinking he did
>>84573383
Also when I say he can't take criticism, there's posts like this.
>>84564273
He has a Tumblr?
>oh I've never read this, seems nice
>spent a whole day on this thing only
>got to the ending
>mfw
Jesus fucking christ, I expected this to be somewhat dramatic yet cute, but not to be THIS depressing.
Why did this bomb on Japan though? Did the publisher released it with no advertising whatsoever/released it with a very strong competition?Also Domika GOAT waifu.
>>84573745
It has to have been advertising.
Also quick question, what's the drive for people to purchase physical versions of Webcomics. Do many people do that?
>>84573847
I wanted to buy a physical version of Murata's webcomic adaption of OPM, but they cut panels out and so you can't flipbook it anymore at points so the webcomic version wins out instead of a physical copy.
>>84474910
He's a fucking nip, what do you expect? The poor people are a report card away from the end of a rope their entire lives.
>>84492834
Oh sweet baby Jesus and I thought the original was good
>>84504876
If it was sold in B&N, I would scour all the ones near me once a week
>>84507265
I appreciate it bro
>>84573745
Yeah, it's pretty fucking brutal, anon.
My guess it bombed because it wasn't advertised much, I think it would have done really well if it had been advertised. Hell, since I made this thread, numerous people have read it, and the reactions have all been good.
>>84574900
>Going on 5-6 days
I'll be sad when it hits bump limit.
Would you guys be interested in more threads like these?
>>84575205
Yeah sure why not.
Seeing Sho's art makes me want to develop a cute artstyle.
>>84569365
It's very swell of you to support the artist. Enjoy your purchase french anon.
Just read through all of this in one sitting.
I wish there was more.
I think it'd be great as an OVA or movie.
>>84577159
I can only dream of it getting a 12-15 episode anime series. Who knows, maybe someone over in Japan will discover it and it'll get incredibly popular like OPM did.
>>84577287
It's not generic enough
>>84578085
>these clothes are made by the structure such as the brassiere
>so it is tight comfort
>YAY!!
kek
sho is based as fuck
>>84577159
>one-off Pandemonium OVA never
>>84578151
A shame that's pretty much required nowadays. Plus it isn't generic anime waifu doing cute things or whatever, so weebs wouldn't eat it up.
>>84565659
ugh..i never really like him,i find his shipping and treatment of molte to be annoying.i just wish he redesign her as a new character instead.
his constant pushing of art kinda inspired me to make more fanart though
>>84579299
The fact that he took Molte, a character who had a pretty damn hard life in the beginning, and twisted it into making her some kind of nerdy and practically ditzy girl that's just a waifu to him is the worst part. It completely tramples on the character in favor of his non-canon OC shipping crap. At that point, she's a completely different character, and might as well be someone else.
It's a shame how little fanart there is of the actual canon ship though.
I do like your art though, it's nice.
>>84579419
>The fact that he took Molte, a character who had a pretty damn hard life in the beginning, and twisted it into making her some kind of nerdy and practically ditzy girl that's just a waifu to him
Yeah, this made me irritated me to hell.if there was someone i prefer her to have a relationship with,its her brother.(platonicly of course)
>At that point, she's a completely different character
Which is why i said he needs to redesign her.
>I do like your art though, it's nice.
Thanks!
>>84579542
I could maybe see Molte and Brow working, depending on just how tall time-skip Brow is. Platonic could be cute though. I have a problem with the fact he treats her more as a sex object and not an actual character, but I guess I can't say I'm surprised.
It's nice seeing the characters actually be drawn for once, it feels like a rarity. Don't get me wrong, I like Molte, but only rarely when it's done by him, like >>84499666 where it doesn't feature his crap self-insert.
>>84578085
Her figure is almost retardedly proportioned, but at the same time it doesn't feel trashy because of her posture and height.

>>84451056
>>84455350
>>84459859
So.... I will publish it and foot the bill if anyone wants to point me in the direction of the creator's contact information.
>>84580992
You could approach him via his Tumblr, Twitter or DeviantArt, I would imagine.
Website - http://hiyokono.soragoto.net/
Tumblr - wizardvillage
DeviantArt - hi6sho
>>84580992
I know that most possibly you are full of shit, but just in case you actually do help publish it, you have two books sales from me.
>>84581535
I am serious. I will do it in a heartbeat. I just hope he responds to my note. I am trying to find the right words and I am a bit unfamiliar with him as a person---for example I do not know if he is fluent in English.
>>84575205
>Would you guys be interested in more threads like these?
I would love it, but it will be hard to get the threads flowing since the comic is finished and there is not so new content coming out. Maybe do a new one with news about the author, like in this OP, or a story time, which I'm afraid would get prunned because hotpockets dislike anything furry or /a/ related. With good luck, those could make a discussion get traction.
Wait some weeks or a month before creating a new thread though, give it enough time to catch new readers.
>>84581734
I'm just starting to read it now.
>>84581734
I just finished chapter 1
>>84580992
Honestly, if this is true, you'd also have two book sales from me, possibly more if I decided to buy them as gifts to give to others.
>>84581734
I've actually been meaning to do a story time of it sometime, though I've been busy and haven't been able to have the time to do so, and I'm not sure when the best time would be to start one.
I'm just glad this thread got as much attention as it did, and that everyone who's read it seems to have liked it.
And hey, we might even have a publisher, which would be great. I'd hope they're the same quality as the French books. Don't get me wrong, love the Japanese ones too, but the French ones are much bigger and nicer overall in my opinion.
Have a feeling this thread won't last too much longer, but it was nice while it lasted.
>>84580992
I'd buy it.
>>84580992
I'll buy the shit out of them and I know at least 2 other dudes who probably would too
>>84585545
french sized and with the bonuses, but with the less boring japanese covers would be perfect
>>84586999
Makes me wonder if they'd bother changing the artwork for an American release if it is actually happening, and if they did, what they'd change it to.
>Tfw will never read Sho's debut manga
Never seen this before. Stylization in the thumbnail brought me to the thread.
It lookscomfy
>>84587897
If you think it looks comfy then give it a read, I'd be interested in your reaction once you're finished.
>>84587946
I've got an exam tomorrow, but I might take a look.
>>84587969
Honestly it doesn't take too long to read it, but don't rush it, take your time.

That would be awesome, it'd be great to get some kind of merch like a figurine, statue, or a plush or something, as long as they're high quality.
If this is actually real I do hope it works out well.I'll definitely be shilling it hard to spread awareness.
>>84591359
Imply what company it is.
I want to believe.
>>84592413
If he responds to his DA you wont have to "believe" -- unless he is not interested. We are small after all.
>>84591504
Yeah, I like the style. Translating it right into 3D might be a challenge, but I have worked on styles there were not designed with "3D" in mind, so I am confident we could do a good job.
>>84592969
I hope he does respond and is interested.
If he does, do you plan on selling it on places like Amazon or at Barnes & Nobles?
>>84593321
Barnes and Nobel will kinda be determined on weather Jim (James) Killen is still the one with final say over buying for Graphic Novels.
Corporate has some demands that are out of his purview, like Marvel, DC, IDW, Dark Horse, and big titles in the Manga section, however, for things classified as "Independent" or "Small" (at his discretion), Killen has 100% control, and he has certain "tastes" in what he considers worthy of making to the shelves in B&N, and what styles, messages, themes, characters or stories deserve to be in the public eye.
It is all up to him.
Amazon on the other hand is a given.
>>84593912
Personally I think Pandemonium deserves a spot for the public eye, I just hope it's a hit with people that don't know much about it to begin with.
>>84594096
Well, it is 100% in the hands of the creator. I am ready, willing, and able.
>>84594740
I wish you luck, anon.

I'm glad it didn't end like that. I'm all for characters suffering, but it had to have a happy ending.
>>84603641
It honestly surprised me at how happy it ended with how bleak the world building had been up to that point.Seeing that locket with the family portrait was such a great feeling.
>>84603700
When you think about it, Zipher's the main focus, all they do is set up the world and have a driving point, not that that's a bad thing, I don't think it tries to be something it's not.And yeah, it really is great. Zipher deserves to be worry Domika, and I'm glad they even had a kid together, just wish there was more art of them, I'm a sucker for that type of mushy romantic stuff.

If things work out, sure, but I am still waiting to hear back. Nothing thus far.

Would we get a cleaner English translation, provided this pipe dream even gets moving?
>>84616651
I do find it odd that in the English translations that the say Miss and Mr when that's not a thing in the French translation.
>>84616822
Molte's name was also changed to "Mort" (death) in the French translation IIRC. I wonder how much is up to interpretation when it comes to translating character names and their pronunciations from a language like Japanese to English?
>>84617155
There are a few other odd moments too, more Engrish stuff, likeCrain talking about revenging their town
>>84617616
Something I was never clear on was whether Brow was a boy or girl.
>>84618846
I think it was left ambiguous, but in the English translation Brow's referred to add Mr, so I dunno. I see him more as a boy.

how can one man draw so many cute women?
>>84623128Poor Zipher, Anna didn't love him back the same way.

>>84623965She technically didn't love anyone the way Zipher wished she did to him. She "loved" everyone. Maybe she was a whore?
>>84625891I thought that too, which is even worse in Zipher's case. The her being in his dept if he saved her is sad, but you can tell he really did love her. Chapter 6 is fucking brutal.

Do not lewd the Domika.
Good thread guys.
>>84628051
It's too late.
>>84628298
The limit has been reached. Just over a week old thread.
Goodnight nice thread.
one last one
I require shipping art of these two
It was a nice thread while it lasted, surprised it made it an entire week.
I'll definitely have to story time Pandemonium sometime soon.
>>84629796
Looking forward to it.
I hope publisheranon makes headway. If we get some sort of crowdfunding thing going I'm definitely interested in helping.
>>84629875
I hope for the same. Pandemonium really deserves more attention, and it's obvious the main reason and probably only reason it didn't sell like hotcakes was due to a lack of advertising.
last post for good luck to publisheranon
