I illustrate my own series and sometimes less is more, because it's easy to get way too overwhelmed, when the storyline or the picture is very full or complicated structured. Simple is not bad in any way and also doesn't equal easy. Simplicity oftentimes brings the point across much better too. There are many people who enjoy simple things, when they want to be entertained, especially after a long day of stress.

"Being woke" has very little to do with this reality, the decline started since the 2000's.

    As someone who recently got hooked into the world of Manga, it’s cool to see how the artists work. I crack under the pressure of deadlines, but these mangaka handle them like champs. Whether if they’re on time or behind.
    My respect for them definitely increased!

    • @ex0duzz
      @ex0duzz 2 роки тому +15

      Handle like champs? Not really.
      Like Nobi said, Mangaka lifestyle is very unhealthy and long hours and low pay usually. Even Mangaka like oda of one piece fame got sick from overworking himself. Such lifestyle is not healthy and in the long run can be very damaging to not just your body but also mind.. Especislly if you're not superfamous and rich
      /talented like oda. For every Oda, there's probably tens or even hundreds of thousands of low paid assistants and unknown and unpaid or low paid aspiring mangaka like Nobi. Just being mangaka is hard enough and u healthy enough on the body, but they even need to get a second job to support their passion of being a mangaka, which adds even more stress and takes away even more time from your deadline which is already hard to meet for many published mangakas of even well known series, even with lots of assistants helping full time.

    I would find it interesting to revisit him in three years or so (if possible) to see how he has developed.

    I don’t read much manga, but I do enjoy anime and figure collecting, much respect to all you guys in the business! It takes real artistry to do what you do! ( you too independent artists!).

    My day automatically gets better when there's a new video of this series, thank you so much for sharing Nobi's day, I hope he keeps improving and someday become a great mangaka.
    What about a day in the life of a musician or a band member? 🤞🏼
