Hi hi hi,
I'm really sorry for being gone for so long. I think the 9 month time-frame was mainly just a combination of being really busy with school and trying to find myself throughout the making of this video. After my last upload I realized that there were just a lot of aspects of my personal life that were drastically affecting me and my creative output. And I had to make sure that, before I could ever finish this one, I needed to take care of all of that. I can comfortably say that I'm genuinely in a really good place now and excited to work on new stuff for the channel. You'll never see me be gone for that long ever again don't worry LMAO.
Glad to know you are in a really good place now, keep it up :)
Are you the best manga UA-camr because you're Ah Lecks? Or are you Ah Lecks because you're the best manga youtuber?
baseball hm
Don't worry man, it's cool
it's fine, man. Whether the videos you release would be 10 mins to an hour and a half long, it's just good to know that make these at the right state of mind.

Man. Thank you for this. Genuinely. Thanks.
Dam you can donate in UA-cam comments now 😂
HE'S BACK!!!!!!!
*WE ARE SO BARRACK*
inoue is also back with a new Real chapter
It’s fucking funny you use those words
DAD IS BACK WITH THE MILK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If only Inoue would come back to vagabond too
DUDE! What a colossal effort, can't wait to start this video!!!!!
I appreciate you voicing the "wot" in the intro 😇
"He named the series after the guy's power and then what he does with that power" Yeah that's crazy that would be like naming your series Fire Punch... wai-
Top notch video!
Thanks for sharing!
Naruto would be called "crybullying"
The GOAT is back
Damn even you were waiting
Can't believe you were waiting with us too 😭
😘
Lex here too that's awesome
Bro leaves for 9 months then comes back to drop one of the best explorations of an artist ever done. Their journey, growth, inspirations, and effect on the world. Well worth the wait I’m going to go start Slam Dunk now
I just cried over you not posting for 9 months, but it's okay, because it was like you were pregnant for 9 months, and you cooked, delivered and served this video. Keep cooking king.
the hell is wrong with you, but you're right
The GOAT is back after 9 months, congratulations on your baby! 👶
😂
Scamboli and Ah Lecks in the same month, WE WON
Welcome back Alex! You’re one of the only anime/manga UA-camrs that don’t make my eyes/ears bleed, not to mention your HILARIOUS! 🎉
That was def planned between us
@@Ah_Lecks definitely 💯
I love that you dedicated a moment of your video to the moment in Slam Dunk where it feels like Inoue thought: "Wait, I'm the GOAT" and became what we know him to be.
Inoue really changed my life with vagabond. like REALLY. ( sorry for the rambling but trust me its worth it)
it hit me so hard that it flipped a switch in me and i tried my best to understand it with my dumbass head and after my 6th read and 2 years later ( in which i ended up learning N1 japanese to understand the actual source material )
i finally understood it. after that i moved to japan nd started learning daoism or better known as taoism there and shinto and buddhist culture deeply for the next 6 years in which i also learnt Niten Ichi-ryū and now here i am currently living in japan as a kenjutsu assistant teacher, a simple life with not much money but the amount i need to live in with no regrets ( my goal in life is to emulate Musashi way of living as close as possible and follow his philosophy ) (im 28 next month btw).
he really flipped my life to a whole different path which originally shouldve been a doctor( i even got admission to a med school but thanks to my supporting parents i was able to learn all of this ).
and after talking to a lot of people over the years from different backgrounds like monks, salarymen, multi millionares and old people on their death beds etc on their world view and life and reading a ton of books this past decade i finally understood more or less of the world that Musashi saw with his eyes towards the end of his life.
that nothing in this world no matter the quality of alcohol or the hottest woman or the most beautiful mansions and any amount of money can compensate u for the inner peace of ur mind which u can achieve if u have a mind as strong as steel and as flexible as water and very little distractions. ( I still havent reached it completely though im still like halfway on that ) every day i wake up with a smile on my face being grateful for the day and weather no matter what kind of weather it is on that day. even though somedays i do get irritated i still try to do my best. thank u Takehiko inoue for changing my life to this extent.
There’s actually a documentary about Dennis Rodman called “Rodman: for better or worse”. It walks through his entire life and shows what drove him to become the greatest rebounder of all time. It’s really good!
Beautifully done!
This legit brought me to tears. Probably because my cat died today but holy shit, you communicated the emotions and passion found in this manga so well! I'll be sure to read it!
Thank you, and I hope you feel better man :)
bro i didnt even fckin read any of Takehiko Inoues works, but I had literal tears in my eyes at the end of this video
LETS FREAKING GO FINALLY A NEW AH LECKS VID
REAL is the most beautiful, under appreciated piece of media I’ve ever seen, thank you for giving it some love here 🙏🙏
it’s always felt like inoue’s most personal and intimate manga to me, and I wish more people would give it a chance
Unfortunately they stopped at Vagabond and it's funny, there are people I know who don't know that he did other mangás.
actually making me cry what a fucking good video
also man,, the "It's not necessarily bad. I wanted to give up several times, In the end, the result is correct." at 49:50 kills me
it hits me so hard as someone who wants to make and draw things, he doesn't say its good, but that its correct omfg
its too late to put it into words tonight but makes me rethink a ton about what ive made so far and what i want to make in the future
good luck brother
My favorite UA-camr makes an hour-long video about my favorite mangaka? Hell yea🔥
Mom, Ah lecks finally posted again 😭😭🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️😭😭
Tell her I said hi
lowkey made me tear up
idk whats w me loving characters that are either struggling or l lose lower loss lisa la ks lsd a lleje
but the real question is why onika burger💁♂️
why onika burger💁
My favorite panel in the whole series rukawas perfect form during a jump shot with sakuragi having to acknowledge how talented rukawa is. I actually had a rukawa phone case for years because of it
You really managed to make something special with this one. The editing, the pacing, the writing, it's all at such an extremely high level. This is definitely an All-Timer for me, one of the best videos on this platform and I thank you for letting us experience your deep dive as personally as you have here.
Dude you're gonna be the reason why I start Slam Dunk. I watched The First Slam Dunk with my mom and I'm gonna be honest, I cried. I've also grown up with sports all around me (I've been doing Kendo for the last 9 years) so that movie even without context really emotionally hit me. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS ❤
This video is everything man wow….thank you
Man you can talk about anything and I just find my self listening to it what a magic
Hey Alex, I just finished the video and have to say this was really well made. I could see the strenuous amount of hard work that you put into this project. The edits are good, and the 3D renders are great. I especially love the scenes with the gallery; it feels like it's mimicking how Inoue would have exhibits of artwork, but instead you're showing off the work you put out and particularly on the topic of Inoue. On another note, this video was very informative. Prior to this, all I knew about Inoue was that he loved basket ball and was a mangaka, so thanks for giving me the chance to learn a little more about one of my favorite creators. Also "CHAMELEON JAIL" is such a silly name with an even more absurd story, and the million-dollar question is such a real thing too. I am nearing the end of high school and will be graduating in the next month and a half, so figuring out what I want to do and whether or not I'll enjoy it is a hassle. Lastly, I've never read REAL, but this video has convinced me to do so, so when I get the chance, I will.
Overall this was an excellent video, and I appreciate all the effort you placed in this video and can't wait for your next video!(even If I have to wait another 9 months, jkjk)
I don't know if anyone recognizes this trend on his work, it's always about discovering your inner-self or rediscovering a part of yourself. It's always about discovering humanity in it's truest essence (Which was magnificently displayed on Vagabond and Real)
Never saw any video on youtube that explored and gathered so many information about Inoue's life and his masterpieces. Amazing video bro!!
Takehiko inoue is a rabbit hole that you either start with basketball or a samurai, that will end in a deep self reflection that would ultimately better your life.
WE'RE SO BACK
Single handedly one of the best UA-cam videos I have ever watched.
Omg this is my favourite video of all time !! it literally brought me to tears the 9 month wait rewatching your videos idk how many times was fully worth it,I really can't describe how this video made me feel. my god!
As an aspiring novelist, I absolutely love going on these, admittedly abbreviated, journeys with you, just “spiraling” about the beauty of art. I haven’t read Inoue, but Musashi was one of the most formative reads for me as an adult, and seeing the themes in that in this video about his work, layered in between your appreciation might well have inspired an epiphany of sorts for my own art.
This video reignited all those feelings that I had the first time I picked up vagabond. What you're able to do is special. Thank you!
Beautiful, beautiful video. Filled with passion. Thank you and congratulations ❤
Terrific video - i have been in a bit of a anime/manga lull lately and this brought back the passion. Thank you 😊
Genuinely thank you so much for making these man, it's been so long since I've cried to a video because of how much love was put into it
Alex you really out did yourself with this one. Every thing from your editing,music choice,pacing and narration were all phenomenal. It really shows that you were passionate through each and every step of this process. And you did give me a quite surreal and beautiful experience through this video.Thank You.
Thank you so much for this. I’ve loved every second of it and it’s now one of my favorite UA-cam videos. I grew up watching slam dunk when I was very young and it used to be my fav show, and I just finished reading Slam Dunk a couple of weeks ago and having a total blast with it. I was disappointed with the lack of content regarding Inoue sensei and Slam Dunk in particular on UA-cam, but you uploaded your video at just the right time, so thank you for that!
the amount of effort and passion you put into your videos is SO ADMIRABLE AND MOTIVATING UGHHH THANK YOU AH LECKS
wake up babe, new ah lecks video dropped
when i saw that the video is 1 hour long i thought to myself no way i finish this .. then i see the quality content and the time u ve put into the first 5 min and i was thinking no way he keeps up the pace for 1 hour right but man has he proved me wrong really good job man u earned a sub
just watched the whole video and I really apreciate all the work and research you did on this video!!!!
DUDE EVERY SINGLE VIDEO OF YOU GIVES ME GOOSBUMPS
what a beautiful video, thank you for making this.
Hey man I love the video. I’ve played basketball for the majority of my life and when I left high school I felt hella lost without it but when I read slam dunk a year ago I knew that I wouldn’t want to do anything else with my life but play ball then my life took a switch I read hajime no ippo (I recommend) and I think that I’ve played basketball enough in my life and a hole has been within that needs filling and I think hajime no ippo really brought that out and I’m doing my best everyday to get better in my life to fill that hole (I totally recommend you should tots read hajime no ippo I honestly think slam dunk and hji are the best ever) all love brother ❤❤
But honestly I think it’s real because no matter what real saved my life and when I was reading it I learnt that there is hope and that I shouldn’t give up and I thank Inoue so much aye because when it went in deep about nomiya’s life in real I was such in awe I wanted to know what it felt like to amount to something and I pray and hope that I will somehow do something with my life ❤ alright I’m done lol
Made my night, thank you for uploading again!
absolutely fantastic video man. i watched this over the span of two nights and you did a great job spelling everything out and adding a cohesive story of its own. thanks for makin this
Damn words don’t describe how good this video was dude. I really enjoyed the dive into the messages behind each manga and the messages it shows you. Great vid.
Genuinely one of the greatest videos on UA-cam that too few will ever see. Keep it up and you've made my day
banger after banger after BANGER‼️‼️‼️ You never miss with these you are genuinely a video essay extraordinaire, never watched one of your video essays and not felt so inspired. Thank you for all your hard work!!!!
Thank you! I wouldn't know i needed to know this, but I'm glad i KNOW now!!! Appreciate it!
This video was everything!! I'm so glad you're back.
This is such a beautifully well put man. You can really see how much effort you put in this man.
Bro thank you, I am a huge fan of video essay style videos because it allows people to just talk about things that they are passionate about and interested in in a way that can be hard to convey otherwise. I've watched so many of these types of videos about so many different topics but this is far and away the best I have ever seen and was amazing to watch, thank you for sharing this
I genuinely appreciate the time that goes into your videos. Every time I turn on one of your videos I feel like I discover something I didn't know I was missing out on. Instead of watching a YT Video I feel like I'm being shown a new world that immerses me instantly.
3:09 HOLY SHIT THE CAMERA QUALITY!!!
I have never commented on a video before but this video resonated so hard with me. I remember watching the slam dunk movie in the summer and forcing my family to join me, and I genuinely cried watching the last seconds of the game because it made me feel exactly the same way as I did when I read those final chapters of the manga. I have never felt such strong emotions from any form of media ever, and this video just brought all those memories and emotions back. Thanks so much for an amazing video!!!
The editing and everything else is just so good; thank you for this video ah lecks
This is the best video i have watched this whole year.Thank you Bro!!
Hey alecks this video is amazing, what you do is simply outstanding and the message touched me partly because of how good you made this video to be, basketball has been the only sport I have ever played and I liked the idea of rebounds when I played it too when I was 15. I could connect to slam dunks story and the way you iterate it elevates it more. Since last 6-7 years I have only been studying uselessly kinda and I am the same age as you, and inoue takehiko when he started slam dunk, looking at how you are using your time how he did makes me feel even worse but, but because of that the message at the end is compounded even more. No matter what has happened, there is always a tomorrow a second chance, this video literally motivates me to do more and give my all into things. It's incredible how you can make a video which could connect so much and at the same time motivate so much. Thank you for making this. Look forward to all your future videos every year lol.
excellent work and excellent editing!! You can see the DNA of super eyepatch wolf running through the veins of this video
Thanks for the video. Beautiful work.
This is genuinely one of the best videos i’ve ever seen in my life. And every video is just getting better
Bro...that's the greatest video I've ever seen on UA-cam...
That was a beautiful experience. Thank you.
This is the best video essay about Inoue and his works.
Keep making this type of video my guy. This is like 3 UA-cam video in one. Amazing
Love this. From another Alex, hope to grow to be able to put this much of myself into a project. Respect
Fist of all, english is not my native language sorry if i mistaken.
this is one of the greatest videos i've ever seen, for real this give me at the some type of chills.
you put so much effort in this video, that i can feel what you want to share.
keep the great content you have and keep growing bro.
greetings from mexico.
this dude leaves for like a year and comes back with such a masterpiece of a video...just wow. This video really motivates me to start again with my art journey. Thanks man.
i can’t believe i sat thru the whole hour without even realizing 😅 this was a great video & analysis, i really enjoyed your content! keep up the great work!
This is probably one of the best video's I think i'll ever watch. Your ability to tell a cohesive and emotional story that can touch other peoples hearts while still managing to intertwine your own personality and style of comedy that manages to not take away from that emotional story you're trying to tell is astounding. Not to mention, your passion to elevate your story telling through your editing and find new creative ways to bring your ideas to live is so fucking good. I can only hope to bring something i'm passionate about to life in such a way that you have and thank you for yet again reminding us all why Takehiko Inoue is one of the greatest mangaka's to ever live.
bro the love to detail put in the videos is insane
The 🐐 talking about the 🐐
LOVE THIS !!! literally at the top of your game and your niche the ammount of effort put into this is APPARENT and i appreciate it a lot!!! Keep it up!
So glad your back, honestly had no idea about anything discussed in this video before watching it but god dam did it slap, incredible job man.
Just finished the video, really well done. Thank you for taking your time and putting so much effort in to make something like this, the passion here was palpable. I could tell that question on the meaning within art was not only important to the topic, but a really personal question for you as well. Whether the answer you found was one that you expected, the connection art can bring was reflected here in your work throughout. Congrats on finishing, you fuckin did it.
Bro didn’t die but instead blessed with an hour vid love this guy 🙌
Not even done watching but damn, Alex. I have to stop and appreciate the depth of research you put into this one. It's so well-researched. You went to the extent of reading books that the author read just so you can get into his head. Damn. I'm blown away.
And it's so masterfully done. And for the first time in my life, I'm watching video about manga and thinking not about manga, but about what it means to work really hard. And what it means to throw oneself into one's work. Yes, Takehiko Inoue is great and all, but this level of effort is awe-inspiring.
Never left a comment this long on any UA-cam video😂
Thank you Alex. For back-breaking effort you put into this. You probably just wanted to create a freaking excellent video, and you did. But you did more than that. You inspired. Thanks man. You gave your best. And now your best is inspiring our best. God bless you.
Luv ur vidz man. top tier editing, top tier subject, top tier research, and top tier comedy. Can't get enough!
Ah Lecks finally left the Editing Dungeon so we can enjoy this video.
this has got to be one of the best video essays I’ve seen a while. Congrats on your return Ah Lecks.
Bro thank you for this video. I love the way you make videos and the dedication put into them. Genuinely entertaining 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I've never subscribed to a patreon before but this video made me feel like I'd be a scammer if I didn't
Brb gonna go read Real instead of sleeping
Edit: 21 hours later and 78 chapters into real i can confidently say that it's a masterpiece. It's like if vagabond and slam dunk had a baby and if that baby was Jesus. I missed school but idgaf it was worth it
Finally after 9 months
Outstanding video my dude. I'm a huge Real nerd and loved every bit of it, your analisis is so spot on and passionate it reminded me of inoue's work
Every once in a while the UA-cam algorithm hits the mark and recommends a channel/video that is actually incredible. My man really just got me to watch an hour+ long video on the author of a manga/anime I'd rather die than read/watch (Slam Dunk - I *loathe* basketball *AND* sports anime). The strength of the writing, the.....presentation style and the editing (dear Dog in heaven the editing) are just incredible. Immediate sub and I'm really looking forward to binging your entire catalogue of videos.
I genuinely can't believe that something of this quality is free to watch.
Bro this seems to be by far one of my favorite video in UA-cam, storytelling, editing...BRO YOU COOKED!!!!
(I'm kinda biased, Vagabond is my favorite manga)
A video about my favorite mangaka coming from my favorite manga documentary channel and after almost a year too!!! Thank you so much for making this video!!!!
You can't imagine how this video make me go through a rollercoaster of emotions, this mangaka just make feel stuffs I didn't know i could feel
After fully watching the video... this was easily worth the 9-month wait. I think this is a phenomenally insightful video and just pure gold. I'll bide my time for your next upload, and please be sure to take care of yourself dude
Bro came back with the best video he’s ever created and one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. Thank you for telling us about these amazing mangas and it’s amazing creator. Thank you for being amazing.❤
This video slaps it's just good so good that I wish it was 10 hours long. I love the tone pace editing and the script and presentation of it. Ya got a new fan licks.
This video was basically perfect. You’ve perfectly described all of these manga way better than I ever could myself. This is one of my favorite UA-cam videos ever now. Thank you man for making this masterpiece of a documentary.
I loved reading Vagabond
I ended up building a time machine and becoming a Ronin wandering through collonge germany because planes didnt exist back then
Your narrative in this video was amazing. I love your insight. It made me shed tears because of all the themes from Inoue. Thank you.
