Why am I not surprised?

Didn't this fuck was making another manga about cripples or smoething like that? are you telling me he's going to have 3 series runnnig?

JUST FINISH VAGABOND

Get REAL
It’s cripples
Doing Basketball
Another Basketball manga?

>can't finish two manga he's been working on for years
>decides to start up a new manga he'll most likely spend years on but never finish
Inoue makes Togashi and Miura look like little bitches

unbelievable

>JUST FINISH VAGABOND
Some cuck told Inoue retired from being mangaka after few hours of research and few interview of his -
He won't ever finish it. Manga is over, he just dose not find it interesting
It's still hurts.

BUT THE STORY IS ALMOST DONE

AAAAAAA

Youbetter be fucking memeing me right now.

Source?

source?

Can't wait for once a year releases

>Inoue retired from being mangaka

bullshit. if he did i wouldn't mind though, i miss inoue.

Would like to see something more funny and light hearted like Slam Dunk.

not true

thats just one of his illustrations he does covering japanese basketball

Maybe it's that Slam Dunk continuation he hinted at back in the day.

He most likely wants to get that out of the way before finishing Vagabond and retiring for good.

Fucking idiots in this thread. This isn't a new work, this was simply an illustration for a basketball magazine.

Me too but i doubt it, Inoue has been on a seemingly ethernal philosophical crisis for the past 10 years or more.

Holy fuck this actually makes sense. It would justify the hiatus too since he would've been working on this instead of Vagabond.

Not like the magazine is going to cancel him or -anything, it might even be a short one-off volume like the Berserk guy did with Gigantomakhia. Now i'm actually getting excited that we might get Vagabond soon.

How old is Inoue anyway?

51

It's not a new work. It's an illustration. He does a lot of them for basketball magazines.

Whatever, just give me something.

I'm actually fine with not getting the continuation for vagabond.
I'm fucking pissed nobody scanned the artbook that was in The LAST art exhibition, since that literally has the ending of it.

And I'm still waiting for next volume of REAL

>And I'm still waiting for next volume of REAL
What do you mean?

I have the artbook. The ending isn't entirely given in manga form; the very last scene is a picture of the canvas where he drew it on so it's not ideal to scan. Really beautiful, and fitting ending though.

>I have the artbook
I'm so fucking jealous of you man.
I'd ask you to scan it, but I'm sure I've already done so in previous threads.

Younger than i expected t bh

Well, his faith is probably shaken by the fact that the Japanese dude that made the Phoenix Suns practice squad got cut two weeks in. He now doubts there'll ever be a proper Japanese player in the Eurobasket, never mind the NBA.

I haven't actually. Like I said, the entire final chapter isn't given in proper manga form all the way so I thought it would be useless. Some are panels, others are sketches, or the actually canvas that was shown at the exhibit. The final scene is a pullout, and it's the actual canvas with sand on the floor since the final pages take place on a beach.

Nothing will beat slam dunk and it's based MC and fresh characters.

Him, Togashi and Miura are all around the same age

Sorry sweetie but Slamdunk is old shit, Kuroko is the new hotness

I can't say for others, but I'd love to get my hands on it, especially since sketches and concept art are my thing.
That being said, after looking it up, it is a lot to scan, so I can see how it's a pain, especially if you think there's no point in it.

>Slamdunk is old shit, Kuroko is the new hotness

Reminder that this is the manga that thought being "In The Zone" was some kind of fucking superpower. As a guy who suffers with the Knicks, that shit was fucking cringe-worthy. At least Tsubasa didn't try to doll up the football with weird-ass techniques or even weirder shit than that save for the one time Tsubasa went up against the rival keeper who KICKED THE BALL RIGHT BACK AT HIM. The crowd wouldn't be gasping, they'd be calling the Keeper an idiot and the ref would be giving a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct.

>Kuroko is the new hotness
It got shoved to Shounen Square, it's the sign things were not good enough to stay in WSJ.

Please consider scanning it anyway, i want it so bad.

I got mine off nip amazon. I don’t know where you stand financially, but here’s the link if you ever wanna snag a copy.

vagabond or bust!
this shithead let's me wait for years.
fuck this sportsmanga, i want my vagabond finished.

which artbook do you mean?

soyboy detected, Sports manga are actually worth reading, if you wanna read gay shit like ninjas and samurais naruto is that way.

So Inoue is trying to become the artist version of Kim Dal, the gook writter that has a shitload of series under his name and never finished half of them.

Probably once I've stabilized in life. Thanks for the link.

dont call me soyboy, kid.you wouldnt dare to say it in my face.you wouldnt dare to say it to anybody in person i guess.

So is Kazushi Hagiwara, the author of Bastard!! We might be onto something.

Let's fund a study to discover what's with japannese artists and hiatuses once you hit 50.

Maybe he had another son and wants to leave series for each of them to eventually continue and have a garanteed job. Who can tell at this point.

>Sports manga are actually worth watching*
Who the fuck wants to read sports over actually watching it and seeing it in motion?

just bought the artbook :>

Scan it baby, i'll suck your dick.

>High School Basket Ball
>Cripple Basket Ball
>BASKET BALL AGAIN

What a fucking hack.

that →

>Who the fuck wants to read about war over actually watching it and seeing it in motion?
>Who the fuck wants to read about love over actually watching it and seeing it in motion?
>Who the fuck wants to read stories in general over actually watching it and seeing it in motion?

What were you trying to argue here? In fact, if this is the crux of your argument, why don't you just browse the non-fiction section? I'm sure there's something by Tolstoy or Reid that'll catch your interest. I heard the Sir Alex Ferguson autobiography is a good read.

You do realize that's just an illustration for a magazine that he did, right?

>Cripple Basket Ball
Go to your local YMCA and shout that, please. Post results after.

What the ever loving fuck is he up to now. I don’t even know what’s the status of Freezing

I was actually into REAL for awhile and couldn’t wait for updates.
Who knew a manga about disabled basketball could have so much drama?

>I don’t even know what’s the status of Freezing
Still ongoing of course.

That's nothing compared to Adachi.

In all fairness all the baseball sometimes is just the background fodder for the character interations.

I find his shit so boring now.

I cannot face reading another takehiko inoue manga.

>back with a new series.
for REAL? sauce?'

Real > Vagabond > Slam Dunk

Can he just fucking finish the two series he has on hiatus now? Is he bored and wanting new toys?

>Real > Vagabond > Slam Dunk
agreed

Fug, I really need to start reading Real again. It's been like 5+ years since I've read it.

too bad we will never seen the end

What's going on with the plot in Bastard!! nowadays? Last time I checked it out the MC was making tickling demons and devils and making them cum or something.

>Nips will never understand the absolutely first year literal children taught lesson of writing that you must have a start, an important middle point and an end before actually starting writing the story proper

Recently the guy published a doujin, so he is still alive.

I don't think he stopped because he doesn't have an ending but he just lost passion for making manga and would rather illustrate for basketball magazines. I remember him saying he takes hiatus in Vagabond whenever he loses his fire and that Real is more enjoyable for him to make. Judging by his inactivity on either series, he's most likely done at this point

FINISH VAGABOND FIRST YOU STUPID FUCK
or if he's that lazy link it to Baki instead

>Link it to Baki
Kek

>or if he's that lazy link it to Baki instead
Please no, the Memesashi menace has me running for the hills whenever i see a Baki thread now.

Is it fuckign real or not? reverse image search is giving me no matches.

Inoue is the manliest looking Jap and he isn't even a samurai, but I bet he comes from an alpha samurai line.

I agree completely, no homo tho.

Why did this thread get edgy all out of a sudden?

>fucked up resolution meaning a crop
>file.png meaning pasted from clipboard
Of course you won't get any matches that way

>link it to another series that will never end

...

Fake.

A bastard doujin or something unrelated? is it on sad panda?

Too bad none of you will be able to see the Vagabond final panel.
He has a giantic print of it framed in his personal office.

You mean from the museum exhibition or something that wasn't even there?.

Nope.
Only those who had a direct interview with him were able to see it.

Fugg.

Really? Fuck

Where do people read vagabond now? Batoto is fuckign dead.
