OPM Manga Art Study #1 - Murata's Influences

The first thing I wanted to do when conceiving this project is to form a baseline of sorts. As expected, I can't directly dive into OPM if I want to understand Murata's approach going into it. As such, this first entry is more of a reading list. HOPEFULLY I'll get to actually breaking down illustrations next time.

Naturally, as a professional artist, Murata has spent his life accumulating influences from his own personal idols. It's something he pushes other artists to do as well.

Boy, are there some big names on his list. If I went into each of them, they would each warrant a dedicated series. Unfortunately, I do not have the time for that. So, think of this as a breadcrumb trail to go and research on your own. I have skimmed over these artists' careers and a common factor I've noticed is that their success was marked by their deviation from tradition. Make use of that as you like.

After the cut, I discuss the book and artists that helped Murata get to where he is today, and the sequel that he wrote later on.

First up: Hetappi Manga Kenkyūjo (鳥山明のヘタッピマンガ研究所/Akira Toriyama's Clumsy Manga Laboratories) by Akira Toriyama & Akira Sakuma (1985)

Murata sites this as the book that got him started on manga. Written by Dragon Ball's creators, it predates Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics by a decade. Like McCloud's book, it uses the medium of comics/manga to explain that medium. It seems to be targeted at a young audience and covers some basic drawing tips as well as comic storytelling fundamentals. It makes some suggestions for tools when working in traditional media, as most mangaka have up until recently. I have yet to find a complete copy to review, and unfortunately nothing that has been translated into English. I have found partial copies in Japanese, French, and Portuguese(?).

The 2nd book in the Hetappi series was written by Murata himself. I can't help but feel happy for him as he describes, in the forward, how honored he is to write the successor to the book that started him off on his career.

Hetappi Manga Kenkyūjo R (ヘタッピマンガ研究所R) (2008-2010) was completed 2 years before the OPM manga was published, during the last years of Eyeshield 21. It follows the artistic pursuits of Murata's restless editor, Saito, as he badgers Murata for the secrets to his success as a mangaka. This book (henceforth calling it HMKR) is available in Japanese on amaz*n, though half of it has been translated to English by reddit user DarkMeROTMG. I reached out to them recently and although it isn't up as of this writing, the rest of the translation may be coming in the not-too-distant future. I'm really looking forward to it, as the 2nd half of the book - according to the table of contents - covers more abstract concepts such as character design and how manga get published.

Like its predecessor, it covers the standard tools for traditionally made manga, though Murata acknowledges that in the future, many newer artists may work completely in digital media. (He was right)

I'm one such artist, but I'm still noting the effects of different tools because it will doubtless be important for understanding how he achieves certain effects in his work. Software like Clip Studio Paint, which has become an industry standard, has gone far to simulate them, making the transition a little easier.

HMKR is a goldmine for getting important insights into Murata's creative process and the strategies for mangaka in general. Just reading through it gives so many breadcrumbs to look into it's overwhelming. This book alone features: Mizuki Kawashita, Yusei Matsui, Shimabukuro Mitsutoshi, and Yoshihiro Togashi - each powerful mangaka in their own right. Murata sets a good example by roping these folks in whenever he feels that something is not his field of expertise. Among these, amusingly, includes drawing women and designing characters for a story.

"I have to do everything I can to become better! That's it. I did not hold myself to any limits on what not to do from the beginning. And I worked hard without worrying about what other people think of me." -Yusuke Murata, HMKR

There isn't much more I can say about HMKR that it doesn't explain much better itself, so - go read it and keep an eye out for the full translation. I have a lot of thoughts, particularly on how women are discussed, but I'd rather talk about those in more dedicated posts.

Another resource Murata uses according to this livestream transcription is certain boy-love (BL) manga for anatomy references. He doesn't say which ones, unfortunately, but it's easy to see how he works in that charm for his male characters. If anyone reading happens to know, please share with the class... 👀

Since this series focuses on OPM specifically, I can't list artists that influence Murata without mentioning ONE himself. By some stroke of fate, these men independently became mutual fans of one another's work. According to a Sugoi Japan interview, ONE's work affected Murata so deeply that he decided he would work with him at any cost while resting in what could have been his deathbed.

"...Each character has their own soul. ...When I pulled that all-nighter [to read the webcomic], I realized that this work has enough power to rival the best of the pros."

Murata has meticulously studied what makes ONE's designs so charming and has gone to great lengths to make sure those ideas translate into the manga. In the same interview he emphasizes how understanding the core of what makes a character appealing is essential to imagining the kinds of scenes you can draw them in. He has essentially made a professional career out of doing fan-manga and I respect his power all the more for it.

I might elaborate on the core appeal of OPM as Murata saw it in ONE's works in its own post, but if I have to boil it down to some key ideas going from ONE's interviews... A theme that comes up a lot is the contrast of Saitama's simplicity with the rest of the world he lives in. Visually and in personality, he is a simple solution to a bleak world's complicated problems. I haven't found any such sketches, but Murata has said he went over the first chapters of OPM many times, up to Boros' fight, before he was satisfied with the way Sai's face looked.

As I study, I'm reminded - not for the first time - why being a comic artist is a full-on career. I'm a hobbyist chipping at a mountain of knowledge for some shiny kernels I can use. I promise that if I've missed something, it's not for lack of trying or care - there is just SO MUCH. I've come into this with a little bit of background, but it really comes up short of those who have made it their primary field. There's so much that I have to neglect in the interest of time so that I can get this out for people to use rather than in some years as a thesis. I hope that if anyone reading this wants to do comics as their job that they'll keep digging for more.

SPECIAL THANKS

@nenrikid0 - for finding the livestream snippet and the saucy examples

@the-nysh - for reminding me to check out the livestreams in general - I'll do a deeper dive when I can

REPLIES TO REPLIES

I really don't know how to do this properly on tumblr so I'm just gonna save a section for this

@ganet '...It probably helps to study his previous works? ...'

For certain! Though I don't think I'll get to it for a while. Even just trying to list his most important influences yielded this whopper.

Please share any additional thoughts on this, or the formatting or anything, in the replies and I'll answer as I can, maybe in the next entry!
