Gon With the Wind

I know we aspies like to sperg when some Sup Forums is posted but I think Gon has enough universally artistic and storytelling merit to garner a discussion on here. Plus it's about animals which isn't the weebiest thing in the world

Before reading these (literally 20 years ago now) I'd never read a comic with no words that kept me as entertained. It's simultaneously absolutely beautiful and just joyously fun.

Why do I never see my favorite manlet dinosaur mentioned around here?

Same here, except it was probably a little more than that for me

>Why do I never see my favorite manlet dinosaur mentioned around here?
Because it's still Sup Forums, you idiot
Do you see many football or photography threads around here?

Not to samefag but here's an example of interior art for anyone who hasn't seen.

Masashi Tanaka has to be partially autistic to draw this intensely.

...

But it really isn't simple Sup Forums. There's nothing inherently "japanese" about it aside from the creator being from there.

But fine sage the shit and go talk about samurai fucking jack as if it's any better than the rest of the garbage CN shills post on here.

And also, unless you speak japanese it was not a little longer than that.

>Masashi Tanaka hasn't done a new manga in decades

Nice.

Plus he was in tekken.

Hand probably fell the fuck off from all that line work lol. I would do anything for some more adventures of Gon.

Possibly Gon: Space Knight.

Still Sup Forums, you moron.

Kys faggot.

This place deserves to be the fucking wasteland it's turned into.

Don't do this. Last time an user tried to storytime Devilman some fags came in and started posting fat porn.

I don't understand what it is with this place.

Why do people put up with 400 Cartoon Netwok threads a day and fucking lose it over a comic with some actual fucking merit.

And I'm not Sup Forums baiting with the merit statement. Most anime and manga is very very terrible. But Gon should be required reading for anyone that wants to talk shit about art in comics.

This is what paneling and story telling is about.

never checked this out. I wish it wasn't that 3-d shit and not so... idk... hamtaro-ish

>GON, GON, O FORM OF MAN

You can't cross boards bro. Sure its all just drawings and animations and its goofy to arbitrarily keep them apart based on place of origin, but thats sort of just how it has to be. Its not just this board, but every board just has that level of autism set in that, even if you manage to get a storytime going and all is going well, one fag will see it and come in and ruin it for everyone.

Wrestling threads are decent in most boards but for the one dedicated to it, and as soon as an /asp/ poster realizes a thread is up somewhere they will seek it out to ruin it.

It's clear I'm aware of this by the way I phrased the OP.

My contention being this isn't strictly Sup Forums. In it's stylization it's very much in the vein of french comics.

later volumes have less lines, you can tell he got tired

The fuck are you talking about? I read Japanese comics as much as Western? Gon's been on my backlog for a while, but I went with Kakukaku Shiakjika instead this week, that's all.

Your majesty, where is Dino time?

I was actually upset that we weren't merged with Sup Forums on April Fool's day.

It doesnt matter if it has merit. Sup Forums is Sup Forums and Sup Forums is Sup Forums. Reported

>Why do I never see my favorite manlet dinosaur mentioned around here?
It's a Manga and it's one I'm pretty sure Sup Forums is willing to discuss. Unlike say, Digimon.

It's fucking gorgeous, I really like how the Tanaka can make the creatures look cartoony and expressive, yet fairly realistic.

That's irrelevant. What makes something Sup Forums is whether it comes from Japan, not whether it,s stereotypically japanese in it's aesthetic.

Gone!

I don't give a fuck if you think it's irrelevant. Your opinion is irrelevant. It's about as Sup Forums related as most of the shit on here. And it's actually got some fucking merit.

Comic book movies aren't fucking comics or cartoons and the shit has infested this place. I propose talking about one of the best comics of all time, which happens to be out of Japan, and instead of just sticking to your Rebecca Sugar shill threads you decide to shit this up.

Get some fucking taste you pleb.

True, but only marginlly less stunning. I'd love to see them make a more artistically faithful cartoon adaptation of it. It's crazy how he packed so much personality into a 1-2 foot lizard and how the dynamism and movement in the panels makes even pages of him just walking enjoyable.

Anyone got a favorite Gon story?

I'll see if I can track it down for if you want a ST. I only have the small Paradox versions but I'll see if I can track a digital copy down even if to buy it and share with muh Sup Forums loving friends.

Whoa there buddy. It's irrelevant whether you like it or not. I'm not saying gon isn,t a great manga, but the very fact that it's a manga means it doesn't belong here, whether you like it or not.

For what it's worth, I,d much rather we had a sequential art board that had all veins of comics, and then had two separate board for animation. Unfortunately that isn,t he case, so you should really bring this thread to Sup Forums if you want to discuss Gon further.

Go shit up the movie threads faggot. Thread has been up for fucking 4 hours, clearly the mods don't see it as such an aggregious over-step of logic to say a comic that bares almost NO resemblance to typical anime is okay to be discussed.

What is your mission here? Other than wasting your time of course.

Report me if you feel so strongly. I'll be silenced if they agree and I'll be relegated to reading Storytimes.

I do think OP would've been better off starting thread in Sup Forums, but I don't see why we can't discuss manga once in a while too, it's the same art form except production background is much different. After all, we do have fucking Toonami threads and many cartoons and anime reference/clearly inspired by anime and manga, like how Samurai Jack straight up referenced Lone Wolf and Cub.

Closing the thread.

My bad for trying to discuss things.

The aspie won.

well too old. guess you'll have to make a thousand more SG threads to knock it off
