Oi.
Time for another delinquent / yankii / bosozoku thread.
Few things going on recently. Firstly, all of Volume 15 of Rokudenashi Blues has been scanlated now, and it was great (Morita > your favourite manga artist).
Also delinquentanon has scanlated another chapter of Bucchigiri/Bad Boys Boogie, which I am aware I am the only person reading. Not only that but they've scanlated the first chapter of Bad Boys, which was in desperate need of attention, even if it's not one of the regular series they plan on doing.
And we've got a few new Be-Bop High School chapters. One of which I am going to dump now.
Long as fuck chapter. First BBH OVA was based on part of this chapter it seems.
I hope this guy is a long recurring character.
Thanks for dumping
>>144089124
What, is the girl gonna fight too?
The OVA which covered this was great by the way, had Wakamoto voicing a delinquent.
>>144089354
Nah, they usually don't fight in BBH. At least not so far.
>>144089402
>sorry I gotta crap
>ha ha look at the pussy running away
>>144089705
He literally crapped his pants, didn't he
>>144089742
At least a little for sure.
Toru seems to have less bad luck than Hiroshi.
>My shit was real fucking hard today
Surely the most unnerving thing to hear in a fight.
I like how no one ever believes any of Toru's shit.
I've been slacking off, gotta catch up with RokuBlues, Clover, Rainbow, BBH, Osu!! Karatebu, A-bout!! and gotta check out Bad Boys now. Hope the story is not as lackluster as the art seems to be.
>>144090244
>>144090274
This is the kind of stuff I like, the tough talk and banter
Beelzebub had some of that early on but then it became a shitty battle shonen
>>144090293
I need to read Rainbow actually, havwen't read any of it. Only read like two volumes of Osu Karate Bu.
Latest volume of RokuBlues was fantastic start to finish, Clover has been great for a while and looks like it's heading for an interesting story arc, BBH is always top tier and I need more A-bout!, good mix of comedy and serious shit.
As for Bad Boys, I'm sure the art will improve, the first chapter is like lazy Togashi tier art. The story looks like it'll be interesting, kind of feels like it might be KKOW and SJG mixed together but who knows.
>>144090331
More or less every chapter of BBH has been like this.
is BBH still running or is it already finished?
I kind of like the way they do power levels in BBH. Kato and Toru always act like dumbasses but when shit goes down everyone is scared of them, but they still have moments where they get their shit handed to them. It's better than delinquent MCs being able to batter loads of guys on their own.
>>144090563
Finished. 48 Volumes. From the top of my head I think it's the longest delinquent manga ever with Chamelon coming in second with 1 volume less.
I wonder what the fuck they write about for so long.
>>144090724
>I wonder what the fuck they write about for so long
ORAAA
GORUAAA
BRING IT BITCH
COME AT ME
Then, I suppose, new characters rumble in occasionally and freshen the air. Rinse and repeat.
>>144087880
Started reading Rokudenashi Blues the other day.. It's the first Yankee manga I disliked, I can't like any of the characters and the artstyle is not my cup of tea.
Weird because it's supposed to be one of the good ones
>>144090808
10/10. I can no longer read GORRRRAAAA in anyone's voice other than Wataru Takagi's Onizuka/Okuyasu voice.
Nice panelling, simple but effective.
>>144091030
>>144091112
Sometimes it's hard to tell characters apart because they all look fairly similar, save a few stray bangs or scar or mole
>>144090919
It's literally the best one. The only other delinquent manga which had an impact like RokuBlues that I can think of is Otoko Ippiki Gaki Daishou (although I bet some shoujo yankii manga like High Teen Boogie or Hot Road were as influential, I hear Hot Road was pretty popular).
>>144090919
Give it some more time, I wasn't the biggest fan of it at the beginning either, especially the writing, but it improves, if you don't like the art though then that's tough because it really is great. Maybe try Rookies to ease yourself into the style and then come back to RB.
>>144091181
I agree but luckily with something like BBH the only characters you need to really be aware of are the MCs.
In something like Worst where some of the sameface is much worse it's fucking impossible to remember who is who and why they are relevant in some chapters.
>>144091309
>upperclassmen
What does he say in the original moon? "senpai"?
>>144091282
The main reason I am desperate to read more Bucchigiri is because of how much I enjoyed Rookies. Delinquents and Baseball sounds like a winning combination.
Morita's artsyle evolution is kind of odd, he went from almost hyper realism in early RokuBlues to a less detailed style during it final few volumes and for Rookies, and the art at the beginning of his Manzai manga looks more like a mix of the two.
As good as he is, still not better than Tetsuo "GOAT" Hara.
And it's done.
The follow up chapter was released by Hokuto no Gun recently and it's pretty funny, and also much shorter.
>>144091588
Thanks for dumping man I enjoyed it
>>144091220
>I hear Hot Road was pretty popular
Really, first time I'm hearing that. I'm not so sure RokuBlues has been the most influential delinquent manga though, quite a bold claim seeing how many other manga have been so popular, especially with live actions and such.
>>144091730
Popular amongst Shoujo readers and mangaka that is, don't know how popular it was in terms of sales and whatever. It's brilliant though, I haven't read any delinquent manga quite like it.
As for RokuBlues it definitely has the top spot in terms of sales and popularity because it was amongst the best ranking and selling manga in WSJ golden period. It seems to have some good international market as well (bastard Frenchfags have had the whole thing available for ages as I've said before).
I've argued with chartfag for ages about Crows being a pretty influential delinquent manga for things that came out in the late 90s and later after the delinquent boom period, I see it's influence in terms of characters and action in a few other manga which are doing/have done fairly well. Whereas something I found interesting about early yankii manga is that they never seem to be very similar to each other whereas other genres tend to rip off the most popular of their particular genre a lot more (in as much as for a while everything was a Hokuto no Ken clone, and then a Dragonball clone).
I've also previously said yankii manga have a weirdly large number of live action movies, even the less popular ones. I still don't know why.
>>144092201
And the follow up page.
Also the next volume of RokuBlues has the best volume name of any manga I've seen so far. When it starts getting scanlated I'll have to change the official Yankii thread theme music from The Blue Hearts to The Clash.

Thank god I'm here just in time, I'm working on pic related(Volume Release), my TL used the term 'Yankii', would you guys be cool with that or should it be 'Yankee'? My TL's chill enough to where I don't think they'd mind the change but since you guys are the ones that read delinquent manga, I want an opinion.
>>144092406
Wrong pic, here is the manga I'm talking about.
>>144092406
I think the term is 'officially' Yankii as it's a purposeful corruption of the word Yankee. I doubt anyone will mind though. Where is this pic from though?
>>144092713
Same as >>144092500
It's Guren 5, a shoujo delinquent manga and it's more like Kongou Banchou in terms of story rather than actual delinquent manga. A chapter is out but me and my translator are gonna do volume releases since it's only 3 volumes long, but thanks for the input, anon, I just wanna use the right term.
>>144092793
Any new delinquent is appreciated, I'll be looking forward to it.
Unrelated but I'd like to know what Private school means in Japan, over here you would get no delinquents at all in Private school (which are confusingly called Public schools as well).
>>144093119
Fuck if I know mean, I get confused too since a lot of the stuff I work on uses school terms and a lot of my TLs alternate. 'High School', 'Private Academy', 'Academy', and now 'Private School'.
>>144092500
>>144092793
Woah that looks awful, thanks for your hard work anon. Maybe check out some other delinquent manga pending scanlations for the future?
>>144093278
Academy also means something totally different in my country now as well but I don't think anyone properly knows what it means after the recent education reforms and retractions.
>>144093366
>Crows in top tier
>Kiku in upper tier
I'm glad that after what must be literally half a year of me bitching about that chartfag has given up and put Crows in top tier of this.
Now that delinquent anon has tentatively picked up Bad Boys, patiently waiting for someone to pick up Ai To Makoto and High Teen Boogie.
>>144093366
Nah, not until Rainbow and Fly Daddy Fly get removed from upper tier and Worst and Kongou Banchou get moved up a tier.In all seriousness though I might work on Barihaken in the future, just gotta negotiate with the guy I'm collabing with since he has a patreon set up to get paid every time he releases something, so if I'm gonna end up doing half the work, I feel it's fair I get half of whatever he gets, especially since I'd be providing raws myself.
Chamelon is one I definitely wanna tackle, but maybe after I finish a proper Japanese course or 2.
>>144093846
Do Otokogumi m8.
But seriously anything is better than nothing so do whatever.
Also realised someone could put Otokozaka on the untranslated bit of the guide.
>>144094183
I do what I want m8. And for that matter, a lot of the fucking DROP spin offs aren't on the chart, the one called Chicken looks neat to me since it focuses completely on Bosouzokus.
Bats and Terry might be fun to work on too.
>>144094341
>I do what I want m8.
You the real yankii here aniki.
Also fucking hell Chikin has got 17 volumes and is on-going. Why does no one seem interested in Drop or Drop OG, it sounds like it might be cool.
New Clover chapter and all.
>>144094527
Dunno, I know it has a live action movie and it was dubbed by Funimation too.
>>144094527
Because drop is shit.
I have 2 chapters of Bakuon Rettou ready. Gonna release the first one in an hour or so.
>>144090293
Don't expect a huge art change but it kind of gets better
>>144093846
Out of that tier those 2 are definitely the weakest but I wouldn't change them for the two you mentioned. I could bump up Rookies, out of anything in the Mid tier seems like the most fit to climb the ladder, maybe Saru Lock as well if we ever get more updates.
>>144095413
Check your inbox, I sent you chapter 6 of BBB for QC check.
Morita is good and all but if there's one man that I'd pay large sums of money to get a delinquent manga out off would be this guy.

It's apparently really fucking good, here's the movie with subs and dub if anyone's interested.

Nomiya is based as fuck
>>144097793
This was such a surprising read. I didn't expect AV to be that good but it really surprised me.
>>144100019
Incredibly underlooked, guess people really don't like soccer. It has so many fucking chapters left to be scanlated though.
Bakuon Rettou is out. The next volume brings a big change to Takashi so I'm pretty excited to be coming close to it.
>>144087880
Did he punch himself?
