Stan Sakai is a true inspiration to anyone who wants to create comics. Not just because he does everything on his own, but the fact that he has worked on this series for as long as he has. Thank you Stan!!!
Usagi Yojimbo is a criminally underrated comic. I got into it recently and can say I have been thoroughly impressed by every bit I've read so far. It's like comic book caviar. A gourmet treat.In my top 5 favorite comics of all time: 1) One Piece 2) Usagi Yojimbo 3) Berserk 4) Billy Bat 5) Spawn
Wow cool list. One piece is my favorite. Usagi yojimbo also my favorite. Read it for years. I only have up to volume 14 or 15 though. Im so behind. I so happy there is love for it. Also im from da islands like Stan lol
I love his style! Yojimbo and the Animal world he built and the crossovers with TMNT is what I loved about Indy comics of the 80’s-90’s. I too a Boomer with my hobby, still using ink and paper, I need to feel the scratch on the surface as I draw otherwise it feels to me as a soulless endeavor.
i missed the first few issues for this comic but i'm getting the book version when it comes out the art. i've seen for this is amazing and I've love japans culture and animals this is a comic for me i've been slowly learning Japaneses, one of my dreams is to visit japan and hopeful live for a time.
I got into your comic books by some German editions in my local library in Eggenfelden, over 30 years ago. It’s still one of my favorite comics and the no1 edition and The Art HC are treasured possessions.
Thanks to u mr Sakai the only good thing about this horrible pandemic was / is I started to read comics n lucky me I started with usagi n slaine. Absolutely amazing. So in two months I almost have read everything what is published in Germany for now. Thank u so much
I would love to see Stan Sakai writing an Usagi Yojimbo manga, one day. When it comes to who mangaka would draw it, I know that probably the best choice would be Paru Itagaki (Beastars), for obvious reasons, but I would much rather prefer either Nobuhiro Watsuki (Rurouni Kenshin) or Koyoharu Gotouge (Demon Slayer). I think Usagi Miyamoto would look so cool and badass drawn in either Watsuki's or Gotouge's artstyles.
I draw dragonflies in flight like I do because of Mr. Sakai😅 He also effected how I draw clothing. Between him, Mrs. Wendy Pini and Mr. Arthur Rakham you get my style🤷🏻♀️✍️

Spawn is underrated aswell
STAN! He has to be one of my favorites with Mignola.
Both are great. Have you seen the issue where all the artists did usagi for a special issue? Mignola did one i believe lol
I love Miyamoto Usagi, and Stan still has it!!!🐰🐇🐇
dude is unreal. doe the entire book by himself... what a legend
Thank you Stan. You make life that much more enjoyable with Usagi
"just a quick sketch" and still draws something amazing. I love his books so much.
Yes! I'm so glad you guys covered Stan Sakai with this series. He's the best!
“What I send in, they publish”. OG. Living legend dropping knowledge. Great sketch.
I am from spain and in the library of my city are your mangas and I read it☺👍
Research, that's why his stories are magic.
Yaaaaaaaaay! He hand letters too!!
What an amazing guy. Truly talented
Such a huge fan of Usagi and Stan. Great video!

I been collecting for 30 years ❤❤❤❤ thank you Stan Sakai .
Thank you so much for this!!
G.O.A.T.
Beautiful piece of art. Love it.
Stan is so cool. Thank you
It's so inspiring to see a professional working, especially if it's a sketch instead of a 100% serious hour-long piece.
Loved usagi Stan seems such a nice down to earth man
i missed the first few issues for this comic but i'm getting the book version when it comes out the art. i've seen for this is amazing and I've love japans culture and animals this is a comic for me
i've been slowly learning Japaneses, one of my dreams is to visit japan and hopeful live for a time.
What a joy.
I ❤ USAGI
Love this guy! He did it right with owning the rights to his creation. I bet most artists out there wish they still had a lot of theirs lol
I love Stan
I love yours work Mr. Sakai.
8:06 I love it that he not only fixed it he made it historical . Typical Japanese way.
I remember Usagi's 1st appearance in TMNT cartoon...SMH. The way he was beaten by Shredder was TOO CORNY. The Usagi comics are VERY good though
This is a masterpiece, epic, and legendary. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟🌟
tears of joy thank you Mr. Stan Sakai-San for Usagi Yojimbo you are a great inspiration.

All this time, I didn't know he grew up in Hawai'i.
Awesome!
Goat.
We stan STAN! A legend.

Usagi Yojimbo Manga adaptation would be a good addition for the franchise.
Had that toy as a kid took it to school and they hated all day
6:54 similar to checkers
Inspiring
Loved hearing your commentary while you drew. I have a few pens from Japan. Can you share what your's was? Thank you Stan
I love stan lol. I have a signed drawing and several books
Muy interesante estos videos de dibujos .
Usagi Yojimbo is the best manga in my opinion
I draw dragonflies in flight like I do because of Mr. Sakai😅 He also effected how I draw clothing. Between him, Mrs. Wendy Pini and Mr. Arthur Rakham you get my style🤷🏻♀️✍️
cool
Now he will be on netflix
GOAT
500th like !
I can't wait that Stan Sakai will create a animated serie of Usagi Yojimbo but what is the release date for the serie?
Sick
what is that yellow pen he is using? I thought it was a dip pen but I noticed it had a cap on it.
MRDR fly it’s a fountain pen.
@@kylebrown6445 Thanks what is the mark ? Have you got a link ?
That is the Koh-I-Noor Artpen 3050.
Traditional for Lyfe!
Hey What kind of pen he uses for inking ?
Can I buy an action figure of Usagi Yojimbo?
yeah i dont like digital
I really wonder. Stan is getting old who is going to take up the task to continue the series of usagi yojimbo
uhhh no one
All series have to end. I would love to see Stan give us his ending for Usagi. We kind of got one with Senso.
I wonder, how Usagi story might be ended? Its will be dark and gritty, or greatest rabbit in the world finally find peace?
