    Yeah, honestly an amazing manga. Akane is a fantastic protagonist - competent, confident, yet willing to be humble and learn when needed. It's also great to see a female MC who the artist isn't afraid to draw in a wide range of expression - she's not forced to be cute, in fact when she's performing she gets to pull the most outrageous faces, and it all adds to her charm. You can feel that she's this rambunctious girl with plenty of potential, hungry for success and genuinely in love with her art. She's got infectious passion.

    The author of Akane Banashi pulling off a story about Rakugo something I never really thought about from Japanese culture and make it so thrilling and enthralling. From the battles and training arcs it has plus the mc is an awesome female character and every chapter to me leaves off on a cliffhanger is so good so much to look forward to in this series

    I was sold during the first chapter explanation tbh. Especially because i could tell immediately that the art is fantastic lmao. Like it's hard for me to even finish the vid because I'm that sold.
    You're really good at knowing how to sell a series! Good enough to make me curious what your previous videos were about, to which I immediately saw your first video is about one of my favorite current stories. Good taste, good content... you're going to pop off some time soon no doubt in my mind!

  • @ravingraven2522
    @ravingraven2522 Рік тому

    The thing I love about Akane-Banashi is how the various Rakugo stories and methods used to tell said stories, help to better explore the characters who tell them, not unlike typical shonen battle manga that have powers fitting the characters. Hikaru uses a style that focuses solely on telling characters apart via voice, which makes perfect sense as she is a voice actress. One recently introduced character is a gambler, who decides which story to use based on dice rolls before he goes on. It actually feels like each character has their own unique "combat style" that you would expect in the usual battle manga... except their combat is storytelling.

    oh man, brilliant artwork and such compelling setup & story telling, it's just the subject matter is so not my cup of tea, such a shame. Great video though, was so convincing it gave me real friction! Between wanting to read and not being at all interested in this art form. Though ironically, there was an anime about this art form and I quite enjoyed it. But done well in anime form, I think takes this to the next level, just cuz you can fuse so much emotion into the portrayal of the on stage stories (of us non-consumers of this art form)

    What’s the difference between Rakugo and Standup comedy?

    • @PlainTalkNoBS
      @PlainTalkNoBS  Рік тому +5

      At risk of oversimplifying: Rakugo is performing traditional stories (often humorous) while seated on a cushion. There are other constraints as well. Standup comedy is focused on modern, original material and the comedian has a lot more freedom in terms of movement and props.

    I've been reading this manga and just have not been enjoying it. How it is written is very much tell don't show, they tell you her performance was amazing but only show like 2 panels of her making a face. Later they tell you that she is overbearing to the audience but they never show it they just tell you "oh they didn't laugh much" and then explain after the fact that she is not taking into account the old people in the audience. I like the art and I kind of like the characters but I haven't been enjoying it much.

    It's not that good. The later chapters treat MC as a basic device for rakugo exposition. It's too obvious compared to similar works like Oshi no Ko and Act-age.
