About this deal

This might be a little hard to put into words, but when I draw using physical media, I almost feel like I’m caressing the drawing, and I start to feel affection for my characters. In particular he enjoys striking, absurd ones, or ones with the character's name (which, well, makes sense.

the hero must always rise, or always fall, but never go through ups and downs, because that confuses the reader and looses their interest. Whether you’re working in long form or short, when it comes to the story, the two ironclad rules are that you follow the ki-shō-ten-ketsu structure and that your protagonist is always rising. He goes into great detail about how he creates characters, and even shows you his character template that he uses to think through his characters before he sits down and designs them visually. Major props to him for admitting the earlier arcs were marginally defined by their abundance of dichotomies. Learn how to create manga from Hirohiko Araki--creator of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and a master of the medium!Reading this book has confirmed some of my suspicions of JoJolion's 'shoddy writing' but beautiful execution. To be perfectly honest, by making public ideas and methodologies that are trade secrets, which up until now I’ve held under monopoly, the publishing of this book will be disadvantageous to me on a personal level. Pero no sólo hace una simple anotación: intenta explicarse porqué le ha llamado la atención, porqué le gusta o porque no lo entiende. I would highly recommend this book also to other literature students who are interested in genres like drama, thriller, mystery or adventure.

Todo lo que nos da son tres reglas —la necesidad de calibrar los cuatro elementos regidores, que la historia tenga un orden ascendente y que el tema sea importante para nosotros como individuos— y todo lo demás que nos dice es «el resto es observar». According to him, manga is the ultimate synthesis of all forms of art, and in this book he reveals the secrets behind how to make the magic happen using concrete examples from his own work. The scope is very strict: a bunch of advices on how to survive the task of plotting a serialised adventure manga for a long time.The way Araki gives readers a peek behind the curtain of manga creation in a realistic and pragmatic manner is amazing. He gives a few pointers about anatomy, using the golden ratio, signification (simplifying a drawing e. So, I read this book to understand JoJo's, Hirohiko, himself, and perhaps even to learn some tips on how to keep writing exciting in the ways I, relatively, admire in his work. Araki is best known for his long-running series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, first published in Weekly Shōnen Jump in 1986 and which to date has sold over 80 million copies in Japan alone. However, the lessons, tips, and examples Hirohiko Araki shares can be applied to a lot of story-telling mediums.

The upside is that its themes often convey positive moral messages about perseverance, friendship, and justice.His reasoning for setting these guidelines for himself and talking through why he thinks one thing works and others don't is absolutely fascinating. He understands he does not achieve this all the time, but aims to achieve it where possible by refining his style and attitudes accordingly to maximise the propensity.
