It was a very fascinating way to set this story up. I've only recently started reading Ishida's work, but I very much enjoy their style, both storytelling and art.
I love the meaning behind the title of “X”. The way I interpret it as the variable of an equation. The same way that the variable needs to be found through a process, the world defining choujin will find which way they sway towards, a savior or a calamity. They themselves are the variable that will define this generation of choujin and the world in which they live in. I absolutely love the way Ishida uses his titles from Re: and now this. Masterful writing and I’m having such a great time reading it.
I think Azuma will still transform into a hyena or lion choujin. His current choujin form is kinda formless, it doesn’t necessarily have a real persona. We know that people turn into the choujin they want or relate to the most, i.e Tokio turning into a vulture because it’s what he related to the most. So I think Azuma still has yet to have that persona, and it looks like it’s likely going to be either a lion as that’s what people seen him as the most, a stoic and prideful person or a hyena as we’ve seen a lot of panel’s lately of Azuma and a hyena. Now what this spotted hyena means to Azuma exactly we don’t know, spotted hyena’s like vultures are scavenger’s. This could mean anything to Azuma but I feel like Azuma feels like he’s kinda fake and doesn’t actually feel like he’s the “lion” or the “hero”. I feel like this is backed up by the fact that he knows Tokio is always holding back against him, making Azuma feel like he was never that strong.
I think azuma is the hero or justice choujin. Tokio saw himself as a vulture hanging around azuma and azuma saw himself as tokio's hero, it would tie in to the theme of the two of them being interconnected really nicely if their choujin forms were based off how they view themselves in relation to each other.
As someone who hasn’t been able to get into Tokyo Ghoul, I wasn’t expecting much when I read chapter one of choujin x when it came out, but now it’s my tied second favorite new gen (with Dandadan, jjk is first) and could easily get in my top 10. Sick editing btw
I started Tokyo Ghoul about a year ago and didn't pick it back up until recently. I'm not even finished with Tokyo Ghoul: Re (sequel series) and I've fallen deeply in love. Now, it's a bad argument to say "it gets better later on" because, for one, I thought it was enjoyable even early on; for two, telling someone they have to commit time and energy to get far into a story is hard and not always reasonable or enjoyable. But Tokyo Ghoul (and Re) is a very MEATY story. What I mean by that is that quite a lot of things happen by the end of it. Thinking about the first arc versus where I am now, the story has evolved into something entirely different and unexpected. Couple that with the evolution of the art style and I'm beginning to realize how much I adore this manga. Obviously since everyone has their own tastes, you may never be able to get far into it, or you have actually read it all and don't enjoy it anyways and I'm talking out of my ass. But on the off chance you haven't gotten to Tokyo Ghoul's peaks, I highly recommend you give it another chance. And if you do, I hope you enjoy it.
I just wanted to mention that when Chandra is talking to the mother, he mentions completing with the noh mask man for the mothers affection, so I think they're on the same side.
1st of all, thank you sufferents for posting this video. I hope you getting enough rest, if not please take a break and relax. Thank you for always posting new and impactful videos, keep up the good work at your own pace. 2nd I feel like choujin x is going to be one of the best seinen manga ever made and it'll surpass Tokyo ghoul. The reason why Tokyo ghoul had a bad ending was because of the place he was working in. They didn't give him enough space to breathe, relax and get to main point of the story and finish with peace instead, made him finish because of stress and lack of breaks. For choujin x on the other hand, young jump allows him to release his manga at his own pace and this make ishida to be more flexible and have more time to think before concluding. Chapter 24 being a more of an explanation of what choujin x is all about making the rest more like an introduction to the story is just BRILLIANT. I love ishidas work an so far I'm hoping to see what more he give us with this manga. 3rd we all know that ishidas focus on any manga he makes, he focuses on the characters, their backgrounds, the way they respond with their emotions like you explained thank you, I feel like this manga is going to based of the characters character, their emotions is the whole point of the story, like how one is going to move forward or slack. I really expect more of this series. Thank you once again sufferents for posting this video. Keep up the good work and get better.
I still think that Ishida did a good job, with the burnout and little time he had it could be a lot worse, he did his best and i respect him so much for that, at least he could do the ending he wanted
I wonder what Choujin X (The manga) was based off of. Maybe something to do with real-world history, just like Tokyo Ghoul was of the Ainu people. Maybe when more chapters expand on the story of the previous Choujin Xs, there might be some relation to real world dictators and ‘heroes’, where they are ‘wicked’ or ‘virtuous’ respectively.
I mean tokio being the choujin x makes sense . Cause he doesn't see value in putting effort towards anything . Ishida will probably give him a character development and then drop him down to hopelessness so he becomes the choujin x
I feel like chojin x could be not exactly both azuma and Tokio having the potential but perhaps a different meaning all together. The meaning being that similar to tokyo ghoul these two characters could become one person somehow that together in body and mind they are X. Similar to how together Kaneki and Rize were Dragon.
Please give a read to Montage by Watanabe Jun. It's a fictionalised version of the 300 million yen heist in 1968 in Japan. It's a very suspenseful seinen manga
I love where the story is going and can't wait to see what comes next. Also while I don't know the full meaning of Azuma and the hyena metaphor it probably going to be really emotional. Seeing him break down at the beach with the corpse was rough.
X can be Tokio, azuma or elly. They all have the power to be good or to turn evil. They all strive to do good and what's right but they all struggle with their inner demons and insecurities. Elly's MOTHER was the leader of a band of criminals and knowing this she has tried to do her best to do good and not follow in the path of her mom but now we see that just like her, elly has the capability of stealing or consuming powers or maybe people. The future chapters will explain more but so far its written out pretty well.
I think the actual letter X might be a symbol of the 2 characters moral journeys. Notice that one line is constant, the other slightly staggered. Perhaps each character is one of the lines, and it's representative of the journey of them crossing to another end of the moral spectrum, the straight line could be representing a straight forward journey from good to bad(whichever character that may actually end up to be) and the others, not so straight forward journey? I might be looking to far into it, but I wouldn't put it past sui ishida to have some subtle foreshadowing.
First Vinland Saga pulls the prologue card (there may be others that did the same thing) and now Choujin X, I can’t wait to see how Choujin X develops its story!!
Im glad im not the only one who loves Choujin X. Tokio, for me, is very relatable, and is slowly finding his way and purpose, and even when he believes he wants to a hero, this ideology is tested. I can’t wait for a chapter where Tokio can’t save someone from rampaging, and what this hurdle does to him.
I feel like at the start Tokyo will try to save Azuma who is unstable and for this he gives up more and more of his humanity. And because of that, later the dynamic will switch
hey Sufferents so im asking for you to read vanitas no carte manga and give me your opinion about it. It has two mc vanitas and noe, and its story is about saving vampires together and getting to know more about vanitas himself
Choujin X gave us 20hrs of gameplay then dropped the title card on us. Absolute gigachad move.
It was a very fascinating way to set this story up. I've only recently started reading Ishida's work, but I very much enjoy their style, both storytelling and art.
I love stories that do this. Vinland Saga did the same thing. I can’t wait to see how Vinland Ends and how Choujin X develops!
Kinda like Vinland Saga

Accurate asf
Viz announced its physical release yesterday. Cant wait to get those volumes .
Choujin X is peak rn, literally hasn’t missed
He don’t miss
Facts straight🔥🔥🔥
Choujin X is it good ? Is it action superpower?? Plz reply

And now… everyone is back on Ishida and Choujin X train even though they were doubting it from the start.🤭🤭 Love it

But didn't they give his choujin a name already? The chapter was called "the moon choujin" seems pretty on the dot to me....
pretty spot on
The visuals have been just on point lately good shit S much respect

i finished chainsaw man today and i honestly think its better than jjk, you should give it a look!
The action panels are all over the place in tg an the symbolism aswell
What chapter does it get interesting? Im on chapter 4 and its too standard for me

Yes they are just probably go about their obj differently
Besides JJK and one piece this is the next best thing. He just started the story everything was a prequel stuff was wild to read.
I picked up choujin x, then forgot about it but I'm glad I picked it up again, I'm invested

Was waiting for your video on this since the last chapter
It’s about to go down 😌👌🏾
I'm glad I started reading it ever since it started publishing I knew Ishida won't disappoint greatness is in the making
Prologue finally done

I just noticed the X has two arrows that are facing two opposite directions. Maybe this has to do with our characters journeys🤔
I love where the story is going and can't wait to see what comes next. Also while I don't know the full meaning of Azuma and the hyena metaphor it probably going to be really emotional. Seeing him break down at the beach with the corpse was rough.
You are a very smart person. I'm at a loss for words at the new ideas you help create in me. Very big sub
The most powerful choujin to EVER live. "Bill" 😂😂😂😂 what a name.
All jokes aside, amazing issue. I was FLIPPING while reading it.
Great vid man the prologue of choujin x is fuckin cool
Fantastic editing! Can't wait to see where the series is heading.

Isnt Rex italian for king
No it’s pronounced Re “Re mean King in multiple languages including Maltese”

I'd love to read this but I don't know when to read it
Yo leaving manga aside for a sec, you're fucking great at narrating shit
Bill 🐐🥶🥶
name of the background track?
Hey how many chapters does gachiakuta have the site im reading on says 17
I have a feeling that two choujin x is being born Azuma = calamity tokio = Savoir
It would be really interesting I think
in my opinion, I think choujin x isn't the power you get but your ability to stay human after many raises
ely is choujin x
It’s actually just Queem. There’s no choujin queen

Choujin X is just Japanese Worm.
