"Once you pop, you can't stop" Right? In fact, I'm re-reading it from volume six now along with Berserk.
Oooh, that sounds interesting. I've never sat down and sort of read them side by side, except for the new episodes. A direct side-by-side comparative would be interesting.
Btw Im also drawing Sasaki Kojiro, maybe I'll post it around here sometime.
Please do, that'd be great. Considering Musashi's affinity for the arts, both in Vagabond and in life, I'd love to get the creative juices flowing in here. Some sort of art section or thread ("Drawing with Water"? =) and maybe our own drawing board.
Good idea, neat things are happening right now.
I wonder if there's a way to officially pull that off, like have a specific warning appear over the gray bar and disappear when you scroll over, or even go with click to reveal system... Wally? Aaz?
I hear you, man. But 13, is a bit young don't you think? Berserk was the first real hardcore anime he watched.
I agree that's a bit young for either, but it's still impressive considering how cerebral Vagabond is.
There are a good deal of movies, anime and even books that reminds me of both Berserk and Vagabond. But I can't come of anything else at the moment, but will open a thread as soon as I remember more.
Do as you like, but feel free to make one just about that movie. I'd like to hear more about it and why it reminds you of Vagabond. Maybe it'll spur the discussion about other media that reminds us of Vagabond and Berserk.
I will hold my breath at least until the end of this month, and enjoy reading it more than 10 minutes. (I regret that I read all Berserk episodes)
To each his own, I actually really enjoy the wait and getting and analyzing the episodes individually piece by piece, though it seems I'm in the minority.
Not for the anime, I don't think. The manga is written specifically for mature readers, though, so you may want to wait a few years before showing him any of it.
That's a good point actually, the anime isn't as explicit as the manga; still, I'd say it's also intended for mature audiences. I remember the first time I watched it was without subtitles and by the end I was spellbound. The eclipse ceremony was shocking, surreal, and mesmerizing to watch like that. I too felt like I had been transported to that frighteningly alien world.
He has already read 3 volumes after Golden Age. But I sensed that he understands that it's not the right time for him to read it.
Again, his maturity is impressive. Most people of any age don't recognize such things at first glance.
No, not because of the waiting time, but having less Berserk material to read. So this time I won't read Berserk until new year (I also consider it a test). I did follow it episodically 2 years ago, but not anymore, I usually wait for 2 episodes. Except this time...
It's a bit different with Vagabond though because he'll do 9 issues in 9 weeks and then you know you're in for a couple of months off before getting a similar bounty, so it's very much like getting a new volume anyway when it's time. You don't get it all at once, but you get a steady diet, so it just keeps you from reading it all in one sitting.
