My favorite part of these? The sound effects. They have mass, the "camera" rotates around them, they even cast shadows.

I'm pretty darn sure that a lot of it is prototyped in a 3d program and then painted/drawn over, it's just way too perfect spatially for it to be totally done in the artist's head.

Murata streams from time to time and I don't think he does, since once he starts drawing he doesn't seem to have reference material nearby. He just starts sketching, though he does occasionally just scrap stuff and start over.


This one, for example, was originally drawn in a flipbook and just ported over to his draft pages.

OPM already just seems to come out whenever they have a chapter ready so there might just be longer wait. Man if Murata was really going into animation I would literally kill someone for him to redo the Eyeshield 21 anime.

I would say it is racist, I just wouldn't classify it as casual. We should probably stop this derail though!

Ted Neifeh's Courtney Crumrin is also a pretty badass series of comics about a small girl who discovers that her uncle is a powerful warlock and she gets caught up in all sorts of complicated magical affairs involving dark underworld creatures.





The bad guys always assume that a small girl will be easy prey. This never goes well for them.



The series wrapped up last year and has been collected into graphic novels.

To distract from the racism chat, just wanted to say thanks for posting these. It's a pretty entertaining read so far, always a fan of witchcraft stories. It is getting kind of old how everything works out for her, but not enough to keep me from reading the next book.

I feel like people are playing a game of telephone or something. Murata took a short break to study animation techniques. This does not mean he became an animator or quit OPM or whatever. It feels like there's been a long delay because there's a two week gap between chapters and he actually took down the last chapter to redraw it completely. Yes this does mean he is insane, but no he has not quit.

Wait so people having big lips is racist? I thought people were talking about that one part in the Davy Back Fight arc (worse One Piece arc ever by the way).

Oda has said that Usopp is the equivalent of an "african" (yes, african, not kenyan or ghanaian or congolese) so the big lips are a stereotype.
Edit: I'm not trying to get all tumblr in here, it's just that the lip thing stands out.

Call him a Darkseid ripoff,but I've always liked Thanos. My first introduction to him was in Infinity Gauntlet, been hooked since. Here's a bit from the Thanos Quest where he's searching for the Infinity Gems, and discovers the In-Betweener holds the Soul Gem. He begins his mission (:siren:Spoilers, obviously:siren:):

He reaches the In-Betweener and dispatches with the guarding creatures. He and IB combine their might to destroy the force sphere IB is trapped in.

Breaching unimaginable reality-warping realms to backhand a cosmic entity is one of the most badass things one could do.

Haha, I don't know how far you are but if you're disappointed because everything works out for her then keep reading. She still comes out on top in the end but not without doing something horrific* or completely losing touch with the world. The final arc of the series is told through a secondary character which allows you to see how far her actions have stretched in her home town. It also has a really great dialog exchange between two throwaway characters that really drives home the shades-of-grey nature of the series**.

*When she summons loving Rawhide Rex or whatever to kill a man who summoned the same creature to murder a family I was hooked until the end.

**There's a prissy girl and a big girl who rough up Courtney for her lunch money. Courtney sends demons to scare her. Near the end of the series we're told that she's mentally scarred and nearly catatonic. The big bully girl explains that she was stealing money so she and the prissy girl could run away together because their parents wouldn't let them see each other anymore. You know, for reasons.
