Is this the best art ever drawn in a manga?
>>139758185
no, but its pretty close
innocent ? that should be in Louvre
This was an amazing manga. Why haven't more people read it?
>>139759291
Probably a good amount of people couldn't stomach the pure shit that happened to the guy.
It's a true story, did you know?
Nips are terrified of blowjobs too.
>>139759291
I loved it, then I dropped it after he got a family.
>>139759654
Its that artist in particular. The sex scenes/imagery in Innocent is very vivid too
>>139759592
It's based on a real person, but he died on a japanese mountain.
Also to this day, K2 east face still hasn't been climbed. It's still the only 8000er face that hasn't been climbed yet.
I like how that 1 guy climbed the mountain because he was a cuck.
>>139759592
>he fucks montains

Reminder that the first nine volumes of Innocent were done fucking weekly. Sakamoto's a monster.
>>139759291
It's pretty damn popular.
I can swear to god when I read this manga years ago there was subtle seen where Mori Buntarou got cucked while climbing K2.
I still to this day can not find it, but there was like a panel where his wife leaves her ring and child behind to go meet a man at the door.
Maybe I'm confusing it with another, similar manga I was reading at the time...but it still haunts me to this day that I can't find this phantom cuckoldry.
>>139760191
Nope, you were confusing it with something else, now fuck off with your /pol/ memes.
>>139760245
>/pol/ meme
Please stop this meme. Just search any thread on /a/ and you'll find the word. And what what I was talking about was actual cuckoldry too.
>>139760505
> Just search any thread on /a/ and you'll find the word
Yes, and you'll probably find kek too. That doesn't mean it's not a crossboarder meme.
>>139760535
No it does. Because 95% of people using it picked it up from /a/ and not by crossboarding.
>>139760144
>Reminder that the first nine volumes of Innocent were done fucking weekly. Sakamoto's a monster.
Wha ... ?
Humanly impossible unless had had first 50 chapters done when starting.
>>139760705
Either way, he's still easily among the most talented artists in the industry.
>>139761046
Oh I agree, didn't mean to demean him, it's just pretty shocking to me if he managed to put out this kind of quality on a weekly basis.
I wish there was some vid on him in that Urasawa series, would like to see how he works and how he does the backgrounds in Innocent. I'd imagine a large amount of them are filtered photos.
>>139759862
I watched a documentary about those 11 people who died on K2 during a climb a few years ago and I will never understand why the fuck people climb mountains this high. It's like they have a reverse survival sense where their brain is telling them "holy shit I need to be in more danger right now, please deliberately put me in a life-threatening scenario".
No.
>>139762158
Mountain climbers have a different mentality, and it's something this manga explores.
Check out a documentary called The Beckoning Silence.
>>139759592
No it's not, it simply used the name of some obscure Japanese climber that doesn't even have its own wikipedia page. I'm not sure if he actually did go to K2 but he doesn't appear on the wiki page for K2.
>>139760705
He's on instagram by the name of 14mountain and he posts photos regularly and sometimes videos of him working on Innocent, it's pretty cool, he uses some really weird equipment along his tablet and he has a bunch of pre-done assets that he sometimes uses to speed up his work. Like a strand of hair for a certain character, he has a png of a starnd that he did previously so he can re-use it an alter it to finish up on the hair of a character faster. Cool shit.

>No it's not,
read the thread>>139760055
Great manga.
>>139763624
>He's on instagram by the name of 14mountain
Seen it a few weeks back but with how far behind we are with scanlations, I'm not sure if I want to risk spoiling myself on something.
>>139763713
He's still very loosely based on the real Buntarou and he's still some obscure ass climber is he not?
>>139763624
>>139765895
Checked it after all, pretty neat.
Has anyone else looked through the raws for Innocent?Can someone explain that one chapter in Rouge that looked like a musical? Did dildos actually exist in revolution-era France?
What's so surprising is how shitty the art is in the first few chapters.
Is this the only good mountain climbing anime/manga to ever be written?
>>139766971
no, but look up that shit yourself.
>>139760705
Probably has an assload of assistances
>>139767196
Kokuhaku is trash.
>>139767345
How so? (it's not the only mountaineering manga though)
>>139761426
There's a video on YouTube of him drawing a portrait of Kokou no Hito's MC at a convention in France.
Should have climbed the North Face of the Eiger.
His Instagram is amazing.
>>139758185
Yes, and this
>>139773025
yes
HE LIVES
thank god for that, i was gonna cry
