CHILDREN RECORD (RE:BOOT)

“Boys and girls, face forward!”

Original Producer: JIN ft. Hatsune Miku / older version ft. IA Covered by: Amatsuki x mafumafu

Probably my most favorite cover of this song but there’re also other versions of Children Record that I found; soraru, un:c, SymaG, ito kashitaro, Akatin (but only in niconico), Will Stetson, JubyPhonic, Project Sekai, VTubers(?), and many many more. Look at how much love singer community gave to this peculiar series.

【KagePro】 KagePro Manga Crit Rambles

(CW: Crit rambles)

Personal opinion/ramble piece.

I've been re-reading MR2's chapters, and while I enjoyed the character interactions + dialogue, I'm seriously not a fan of the generally undynamic art + janky pacing of the manga as a whole.

I also wish Kuroha/Saeru, especially the MR2 form, looked more monstrous and menacing and intimidating and dangerous in the manga art.

Like. Could we at least of had a hot snake demon man lmao cuz the manga is NOT doing him justice

Sayuki draws this form SO well in the Children Record Re:boot MV. Sayuki has such dynamic inking

I wanna see Sidu's concept art sketches... Iirc she was the one that designed Saeru's MR2 form

I personally dislike the KagePro manga art. I remember when I was a kid, I was like "I'm not a fan of the manga art cuz it doesn't suit KagePro"

And I would say now as an adult that the KagePro manga is so undynamic and boring to read.

It’s personally disappointing to me.

Like I bought the manga volumes despite my misgivings, out of love for the charas, and cuz I wanted to see the OG dialogues in JP.

So it's mainly the dialogue I'm interested in, though I am still grateful that we got a manga at all with visuals.

Along with the fact that Saeru would've looked hotter and more monstrous/intimidating in any other art style like ADHHDSHDHSH

Pretty unfortunate.

It doesn't have proper composition/page flow to connect scenes

So it's SO jarring when there are scene transitions, because it doesn't feel like it connects properly.

I've been especially thinking this while reading the final volume (chapters of MR2)

Cuz I feel like the entire manga desperately needed an artist that was capable of drawing more dynamic scenes, especially for MR2

Like the whole confrontation with Saeru at the end

The ending chapters of MR2 feel so abrupt and rushed to me

...

Even aside from the weak, un-dynamic art, the Kagerou Daze manga's art style is so boring looking and uninteresting to me

Iirc the KagePro manga was decided through an art contest/competition?

Mahiro was chosen as a beginner/amateur mangaka.

That’s fine, we all start somewhere. I also understand that making manga is hard.

But I personally wish the Kagerou Daze manga got a more experienced artist

Cuz the art just does not do the scenes or charas justice tbh

I was personally never a fan of the KagePro manga art style as a kid and that hasn't changed

And because the most important scenes lack dynamic-ness, it's hard to feel it emotionally too.

Like for example, the scene when Ayano and Mary are standing together to directly contrast the scene of Ayano turning her back on Mary in the rain

It's supposed to be an emotional scene, but the art doesn't convey it well, so I as the reader don't feel what it was intended to give off

Imo the Kagerou Daze manga's art style doesn't suit KagePro.

Hot take but the way the Kagerou Daze Manga draws Mary's Queen Form is my absolute least favourite out of all the KagePro medias.

Well, except for MCA (Anime Route), which is the fricking ugliest

It lacks the curls, weight, and volume of the hair, that all other depictions of Queen (Medusa form) Mary have. The hair looks so fricking flat, dude. It doesn't feel dynamic. It lacks depth

Sidu and Sayuki draw it really well.

Fate/Grand Order: From Lostbelt

I decided to put this one as an example because it has a storytelling style you'd tend to see in doujinshi. Simpler compositions with a focus on chara interactions + dialogue.

So I got reminded of Nakatani who's a manga artist who draws FGO: Anthology comic short stories

Like I expected interesting compositions from the KagePro manga more like these.

I'll show a few snippets of Nakatani's comics that depict short stories of the events of LB6 (Lostbelt 6) main story chapter in FGO

Ch. 18: Baobhan Sith takes a liking to the rhymes told from Panhuman History

Baobhan falling into the Great Pit + The Fall of the British Lostbelt (Faerie Kingdom)

"London bridge is falling down"

Ch. 16: Morgan's Downfall + Oberon Vortigern: The Curtains Close (The Ending Act)

While Nakatani's art isn't very dynamic, they still manage to make up for it by having interesting artistic interpretations of FGO scenes (in-game) and interesting visuals and compositions in their manga panelling, at times.

These aren't 1-1 adaptations of Visual Novel cutscenes, but a new and different take on them.

Nakatani has a creative approach to depicting scenes + compositions. Really fits with the "fairytale storybook" theme.

The art isn't dynamic, but they still make up for it via interesting compositions, poses, detailing, inking, etc.

(Art style is a personal preference.)

Some of the chosen panels and panel shots are interesting.

Like I love the shot with Morgan and Oberon sm...

The flow of Morgan's hair...

How Oberon is shown to be standing in front of the curtains after Morgan's death. And how he refers to Morgan's Britain and Faerie Kingdom as a "Fairytale storybook crafted by her"

I love Oberon's line about Morgan's kingdom and the British Lostbelt being a fairytale storybook crafted by her...

I also really enjoy Oberon's My Room Line towards Morgan in-game in FGO, "That's why I'll say this to draw the line. I didn't hate the picture book (fairytale) you drew."

KagePro Manga

For example, I feel like the scene portraying Mary's guilt for "wanting too much" while the fallen MekaDan members are around her, in her mindscape/dreamscape could've been presented in a much more interesting way.

Like it could've taken a more fantasical approach with interesting compositions, more creative/artistic liberties in scene settings

In the Kagerou Daze manga, the poses and expressions are so flat and the art style is uninteresting as well (to me, personally)

Preference in art style is a personal taste, though.

Here, Mahiro Satou is drawing Jin's story writing

The Kagerou Daze manga has almost nothing going for it visually to me. It doesn't even have interesting compositions.

I do like some of the scenes it gave us (cute interactions between the MekaDan) and some MR2 exclusive scenes (Ayano and Mary, Saeru's backstory), but that's... it.

Cuz it's mainly the story/dialogues and character interactions I'm interested in, not really the art.

It seriously feels like it lacks pages in between scenes to properly join them together. It lacks proper page flow

I wonder if this manga was rushed to completion cuz it's even MORE noticeable in the later volumes compared to the older ones

Cuz Iirc the later manga became less heavy on screentone usage (understandable tho if it's for a timeline crunch)

Though I've definitely noticed a lot of visible improvement in Mahiro's art compared to when the series first started.

I can’t blame the mangaka if the manga was rushed by publishers or higher ups, so I’ll cut some slack there.

Cuz I feel like the whole confrontation with Kuroha/Saeru just needed a more experienced artist to be able to do it justice.

It seriously needed an artist capable of drawing more dynamic scenes.

Either that, or to rely more on more creative compositions and more artistic/fantastical storytelling.

Also I'm rereading the ending volumes of the KagePro manga and the pacing is sooo fucking janky.

Like the Ch. 65 scene with Seto and Mary holding hands, and then it just abruptly cuts to Saeru.

Like it's so ???

Like why does it just cut from Mary having a conversation with Azami in the Kagerou Daze to Kuroha/Saeru killing Seto. And the other members suddenly knocked down on the ground.

The pacing is sooooo janky.

Though maybe the manga was rushed to completion? In which case I'll cut more slack.

currently struggling bc like. children record was first released in 2012. children record re:boot came out in 2021. i am positive i recall jin releasing a remaster done at some point in between the two, that wasn't any of the official covers done for mekakucity actors bc it was still IAs vocals. and in addition it was a new pv,--done by sidu, tho tbh i cant recall if she did the original one--and it did visually reference the first pv

but also i can't find any trace of this?? does anyone else remember this or am I cursed with knowledge from another timeline
