BAKUMAN TP COMP BOX SET: Volumes 1-20 with Premium (Bakuman?Complete Box Set (Volumes 1-20 with premium))

Product Information

Like I said some time, a long time ago, I'm only adding mangas when there's a reference for the full series or very few volumes, because otherwise my stats get messy. Also, I don't like reviewing them volume per volume as my opinion on them is on the whole thing rather than individual volumes. By the creators of Death Note! The mystery behind manga-making revealed! This bestselling series is now available in a complete box set! Includes volumes 1 through 20, plus the bonus mini-comic “Otter No. 11” and a full-color, two-sided poster. A 20% savings over buying the individual volumes! Bakuman อะนะ แค่นี้ก็ออกมาเยอะมาก ๆ แล้ว แถมเด่นมาก 3 เล่มสุดท้ายด้วย จบไปอย่างสวยงาม แก้เฮิรตซ์กับฮิคารุที่เพิ่งอ่านจบแต่ไม่จบได��ดีเลย Discover the mystery of manga-making in the bestselling series by Tsugumi Ohba, the creator of the hit series DEATH NOTE, available for the first time in a complete box set. The Box Set includes Volumes 1 through 20, plus the bonus mini-comic “Otter No. 11,” along with a full-color, two-sided poster. To be able to create a typical "Shonen" story while not including any of the typical action synonymous with the category is a talent this duo are well known for by now but still you would be hard pressed to find anyone else able to make a story about two teenagers creating manga this exciting that it feels like a typical "Shonen" story.

I am updating this post in real time. One Piece Sets still available. Claymore still available! Bakuman gone!

Ohba's storytelling is fantastic. He made me care for the characters, and gave them each a distinct voice. His twists surprised me every time, even though this wasn't my first read of the series. First of all, the reason the review is on the boxset is because this is a Manga (The Japanese equivalent of a comic book) it has fewer words and is significantly shorter per book in compression with a novel, so to compensate for that I read the entire series and my review is a general review of the series as a whole.

Bakuman Complete Box Set | Book by Tsugumi Ohba, Takeshi

Naturally, the big appeal of Bakuman is its theme: manga publishing. This is one time where I’ll admit that I enjoyed something because I related to the characters, even though I hate factoring that into the actual final score of the story. Since they’re publishing manga, the characters of Bakuman spend a lot of time talking about all the topics that I think about everyday: tropes, marketing, mass appeal, and taking risks. Born in Tokyo, Tsugumi Ohba is the author of the hit series Death Note. His current series Bakuman? is serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump. The setting is Japan during current times and the protagonist is Mashiro Moritaka. Mashiro is a highschool student who excels in drawing and is a fan of Manga and anime (a TV show based off a Manga, may be completely orignal on rare occasions) His dream is to become a mangaka, a person who creates Manga either a writer or illustrator or both. He specifically wants to become a mangaka for a weekly magazine called "Shonen jump" the most popular Manga magazine in the world (this is also true for real life) Unfortunately for Mashiro, 3 things are denying him from achieving his dream:I decided to add the 20 volumes all under one review so as to 1) save time, and 2) not go over my reading challenge all in one go). This is less fiction (still is) as it is a behind the scenes of mangaka's life, and more specifically the famous Shonen JUMP magazine. (Not much of a fan myself, but I know someone who is and for whom this appeared therefore better than it was for me...) Another thing that bothered me a bit was about all the mangas from the other authors. It was a lot of "it's more popular and better because we said so" rather than showing an actual potential manga. Like, for Ashirogi's mangas, they spent a lot of time talking about it so I could kinda picture something (I'd kill to read a TRAP or PCP manga) but most of the others, I could barely imagine what it would be like.
