Новые дизайны персонажей "Бродяги Кеншина"

Вторичный перевод с французского

Джиппонгатана из двенадцатого тома

Фуджи

Это броня эпохи гражданских войн, украшенная изображением скелета.

На спине он носит накидку, которая создаёт впечатление, что он ещё выше своего истинного роста.

Его длинный тесак носит имя Матагинагаса.

*рост взрослого человека – к фигурке у его ног.

Юми

Основа персонажа не изменилась.

Но её наряд стал совершенно ПРОЗРАЧНЫМ.

Сайтсучи

После перенесённой операции по удалению свода черепа мозг начал раздуваться. Поэтому он стал таким.

Он кажется стариком, но на самом деле ему лишь около тридцати лет. Эта старческая внешность произошла от того, что мозг расходует все поглощаемые Сайтсучи питательные вещества и энергию.

Несмотря на все знания, которыми он овладел, он недостаточно умён, чтобы использовать их. По этой причине его ранг ниже, чем у Ходжи.

Усуи

Его смуглая кожа создаёт впечатление, что он прибыл из южных стран. Его костюм также указывает на это.

Его волосы стали белыми, потому что он был в ужасе от мыслей, что он потерял зрение в битве с Шишио.

Его основным оружием являются меч с лезвием в форме весла, а также тимбе и роусин*.

В качестве "замены третьего глаза" его изображение вытатуировано у Усуи на лбу.

*примечание переводчицы с французского: названия оружия Усуи взяты из перевода манги с tenchuu.narod.ru

О цветах с обложки двух томов Джиппонгатаны написано в дизайнах Каматари и Чоу.

That Shishio is bitching and I love that look.

Watsuki Nobuhiro Redesigns 3

And moving on to the Juppongatana! I hope and pray that this is the way Shishio will appear in the live action. I think this design kicks ass!!! Soujiro reminds me of Miki Kaoru from the Utena series. And finally, Kamatari, while cutter then the original, he’s more scantly clad! Wear that kimono more properly young lady/man!

[rachelannmillar]

I've been having fun drawing some of my favorite girls! Tomo-Chan, Kaoru, Akane, and Utena for the first round. I would be TERRIFIED to play volleyball with them, but Nabiki would make BANK selling the photos.

Disclaimer: I loved Kenshin when I was a baby buying VHS dubs at Suncoast in the 90s. Kaoru is a girl boss. Runs a dojo regardless of her ENTIRE class ditching her, takes it on the chin when others mock her, adopts orphaned Yahiko and trains him up, DEFEATS A MEMBER OF THE JUPPONGATANA, and rocks a kimono or hakama at any given time. Sucks that the creator is gross, but that doesn't make me hate my girl.

This was so epic from Hokkaido arc!

Kenshin killed Shishio and now he’s the leader of the Juppongatana

Looks a bit different, doesn’t it? We’re waiting for Wano to wrap up, might as well take a detour to something this important. Think of it as this blog doing its own Oden flashback. Or a Boss Luffy filler arc and my god do I want another one of those with the Wano characters. Kiku and Omao would be total buds.

Anyways, this is Honjo. We’re looking at a page from Rurouni Kenshin. Oda was an assistant on this and is credited with the design of this lovely scythe-wielding cutie. There’s immense value in understanding this piece of context if we’re trying to fully appreciate Kiku’s role in One Piece. As you can already tell, Honjo is...we’ll just leave it at a realistic take on what okama meant historically.

We’re going to hit a couple of things that don’t age well, but overall I’ve always felt Honjo’s tale was rather positive for the time. Yet as I have already mentioned here...author Watsuki (who we’re going to try to ignore as much as possible for other reasons) does bemoan feeling like they dropped the ball with Kamatari. Seems reasonable that’s been sitting with Eiichiro Oda for a while and so that’s why Kiku ends up being such a major player in Wano. It’s what makes it plausible we could have distant foreshadows like Victoria Cindry. So let’s meander through this detour and see what comes up.

#rurounikenshin #anime #opening #samuraix #kenshin #Juppongatana # Los Japoneses si saben hacer opening. No necesitan mucho para contar una historia en minutos. La escena donde se muestra a los contrincantes a la luz de una vela, en claros y oscuros, no es más que una metáfora, del bien y el mal, que se puede hallar una persona. Personajes que creían en la "sobrevivencia del más fuerte" algo que aún se cree y se aplica, sin ir más lejos el nazismo es un ejemplo, creencia que es totalmente errónea. Punto aparte es la canción hablando de amor 🖤 Estoy obsesionado con la serie. Soy culpable, lo sé.

Rurouni Kenshin Hokkaido Arc - Chapter 14: Gathering

“I’m counting on all of you, that I am”

This chapter is really good. Not only was it nostalgia to see the reintroduction of my favourite villains but the humour reminded me of the old Ruroken manga so much. This team dynamic is gonna be fun.

Новые дизайны персонажей "Бродяги Кеншина"

Вторичный перевод с французского

Чоу с фронтальной обложки одиннадцатого тома.

Основной концепт остался таким же. Теперь Чоу стал красивее, чем раньше.

Обычно он носит свои катаны за спиной, обмотав их кожаным ремнём. Когда он их использует, ему сперва приходится размотать ремень, прежде чем он сможет отстегнуть меч.

Между ремнём и ножнами находится сетка из стальной проволоки. Будучи расправленной, она работает, как гибкий щит.

Каматари с фронтальной обложки двенадцатого тома.

Хотя основная концеп��ия осталась прежней, персонаж был слегка модифицирован, чтобы напоминать героя видеоигр.

Рисунок его одежды сменился с квадратов на шестиугольники.

Его оружие состоит из малого и большого серпов, соединённых цепью. Оно создано с использованием западной технологии, неизвестной в Японии.

Он уже перенёс операцию по смене пола.

Оба тома Джиппонгатаны украшены изображением магнолии - на японских гербах магнолия означает благородство и настойчивость.

What are your thoughts on the hokkiado arc so far?

Honestly, I’m not particularly interested. It feels like a forced story. Things feel like they’re happening just to happen rather then to build up/move a story along.

One of the points that bugs me is that Kaoru is supposed to be looking for her father and 50 chapters later, she hasn’t done anything other then be a mom and stay at a hotel. Her’s is the inciting incident to get the story going and she’s barely there. Finding her father has become maybe a tertiary plot line? Do any of the other characters even care anymore?

I’m not sure how to feel about the other Shinsengumi characters being introduced because, again, they’re not doing much to further the plot. If you cut them from the story, the story still happens. Other then Nagakura & Abe, they’re all just kinnda there, airing out grievance from over a decade ago.

I love the idea of the Juppongatana siding and fighting with Kenshin & gang. But they’ve been cast aside like Kaoru. The last time they all showed up as a team Kenshin saved the day and there was no need for them. Maybe these next few chapters will have everyone shine on their own.

I don’t know, maybe it’ll make sense in the end. But I feel the Hokkaido Arch came out in that time when sequels were a thing. When companies were looking at their popular IPs and asking for sequels even if the stories were done and didn’t need one.

What if somebody finally cut that broomstick as a reunion gift.jpg

Rainy

-So, you don't like the rain? That's new -I don't like you to get sick, I still remember the last time... -You don't like to take care of me? -I love to have the chance to do it... the attack with your ogama in the middle of your fever is the only thing that I don't miss...

[eternal-echoes]

Since Saitou adopted Eiji in the Kyoto arc (maybe as a recompense for failing to help his older brother Ei’ichirou), this is probably the most fatherly thing he has done for him.

As a Shinsengumi living in the Meiji era Saitou had to work with a lot former Imperialists that most likely have killed his comrades or at least ordered them to do so that honestly took a lot of swallowing a lot of his pride for the sake of peaceful Japan. And now he’s teaching Eiji the same by working with the Juppongatana.

Revealing he has a wife in the Kyoto arc was one of the funniest moments in the series but I think most of us missed this subtle but ultra-dad moment.
