      Please do such work after getting advise from any IT professional. Or someone who's in cybersecurity stuffs.
      And please, do such things in virtual machines not in your main computer. If you use a VM then it's ok. But never try verify a site by clicking on it.
      I appreciate your work. But this type work is risky, especially when you mentioned some the link got to p*rn related content sites.

    • @fukuroufetus
      @fukuroufetus  Рік тому +3

      thanks for the advice! i did knowingly take a lot of risks with this one, which wasn't necessarily very smart. for clarification though, the p*rn i referenced was just a h*ntai manga one-shot that was part of the summer project, and not an actual adult website.

      By “SMAPはきつそう”
      He means “I think SMAP is too difficult ” (maybe he wasn’t so confident about his look or singing skills that he thought he wouldn’t pass the audition)
      But his joke here is that he thinks he can pass the audition for AKB48 which is a “girls band”… somehow

    3:08 Hey man, that actually says "Manga Okiba" not sukiba, okiba means "place of storage" in japanese, su and o are kind of similar in japanese but it has the little line on the right so you can tell it's an o
    Also Nama Kurimu just means fresh cream, a type of dairy product
    All that said, this was a pretty incredible video, it was very cool seeing this whole world of indie mangaka sending fanart to Fujimoto back when he made Ship Kick, and above all, seeing Fujimoto's art improve so much over the years is truly inspiring, having read Look Back seeing all of Fujimoto's journey in the art world from these archives is really something special, thank you very much, I feel very priviledged to be able to watch this before it inevitably (and rightfully) blows up, I wanna read Dejimon now haha
    It's also very funny to think that other people went down the same rabbit hole as you and all ended up on the same video of Fujimoto singing about his favorite foods

  • @hee8410
    @hee8410 Рік тому +51

    11:34 Murige is a crazy manga. It's a death game-ish scenario where the players get to choose items from a menu to add to an inventory they can access to clear random challenges, where the catch is they lose inventory items after failing a challenge and can't they actually die (respawn on death) unless they choose "death" from the menu. Your actual body counts as part of your inventory, so that's why MC wakes up without any memories as a (dickless) torso with a head minus eyes, ears, and a nose - he's obviously been absolutely bodied by someone before the story starts.
    I've always thought it would've been crazy popular back when it came out if it had translations and actual art just because of the premise and the classically Fujimoto twists and turns the story takes. Also I like to think this is where Fujimoto realized how convenient it is to give characters invincibility when you're drawing insane stories.

    Seeing that pixiv has a drawing of Matilda from Léon: The Professional I think that is Fujimoto. Besides his love of movies, I believe Reze is much based after her. Idk if FC2 is use much anymore but I tend to find old sites of Japanese artists and Japanese flash animations using FC2 for their sites. Lot of them tend to show off their hits (people coming in) they get on a counter, not really a Japan thing just that it's interesting to me that personal sites where a more popular thing in internet history.
    Should also say that google translate tends to be the worst translator sadly.

    Great video, some of the "nagatoisme artwork" circulated a few years ago in the early chainsaw man fandom (mainly the proto-Nayuta one), but I had no idea how deep this rabbithole was, really fascinating to see how expresive even his early (alleged) work is.
    No idea if that counts as further proof, but in the shortstory collection 22-26 Fujimoto wrote in the author comment to "waking up in a girld body syndrome" that he published it initially on an undisclosed website.
    So we know for a fact that Fujimoto published some of his manga on websites before officially debuting, giving us another connection.

    This is one of the best videos in the CSM fandom, period. And that's saying something.
    One thing, though - there are online services that let you check how old a site is, you could've used that to verify when the webpage was made. But it's alright! You managed to confirm its legitimacy anyway. Seriously wondering how the people who first found this website came across it.
    Anyway, thanks a lot for diving into the rabbithole! Super interesting and in-depth video.

      @@fukuroufetus Right, I should've known! Sorry for amusing. Out of curiosity, I tried one of the services (DupliLink) and it says that the domain was first created in 1999??? And that the last update to the webpage was in 2019. Wonder if it has anything to do with the framework the site was built on, if there was any, that is. Maybe the fc2 can point us in the right direction? Not gonna go into it right now since I gotta sleep, but there's still a bunch of stuff to dig around for, it seems.
      p.s. the page I checked was the home page (/index).
