On Berserk and Takayuki Yamaguchi.

I'm making this post to vague about a stranger, and also to talk about Takayuki Yamaguchi, who rules.

Someone once said that, in the wake of Miura's untimely death, Takayuki Yamaguchi should take on the mantle of writing and drawing Berserk.

No offense (OK, some offense) to the guy who wrote this, but I can't think of a mangaka with a more diametrically opposed creative voice to Miura's, even if they both had similar root influences (Go Nagai, Fist of the North Star, Phantom of the Paradise and henshin heroes like Ultraman, Kamen Rider and Kikaider) and aesthetic interests (intense gore and violence, muddy textures, weird and often extreme sexual imagery).

For one, Takayuki Yamaguchi is a man who IIRC has directly stated that he's not great at subtle or nuanced emotion and thus excels at creating narratives built off of repressed characters unable to fully express themselves and asking him to illustrate a manga whose identity is partly defined by its creator's mastery of expression and subtle emotion isn't a great idea, really.

He was good at rendering subtle emotions once, during the early chapters of Shigurui, and he then promptly abandoned that skill in favor of intense stoicism for good reason.

One, he makes it look good, two, his work is defined by its detached, clinical tone. He deliberately views characters at a distance, by either using impersonal, novelistic third-person narration, viewing his protagonists through the lens of others within the narrative, or through something as simple as avoiding language and explicit information, valuing weighted silence over exposition. This dovetails *beautifully* with the narratives he handles.

Gekikou Kamen is about a tokusatsu enthusiast's relationship with Imperial Japan as reflected in the art he consumes, Shigurui is a critique of rigid class structures and loyalty to the state, and Exoskull Zero is his version of Casshern Sins I.E a manga about a former superhero in a doomed, fantastical landscape at the end of time out to save people who might not even exist.

They're manga that require an ambivalent approach to function: any kind of emotional scrutability or visceral intimacy would contradict Yamaguchi's novelistic style and frank examinations of flawed social structures and the people they produce.

Shigurui's macroscopic critique of Edo Japan doesn't work as an emotionally intimate narrative, and Gekikou Kamen's critique of the imperialist subtext behind much of tokusatsu doesn't work if you were immediately sympathetic to or understanding of its wannabe imperialist lead, for some examples.

If you asked Miura to draw a Yamaguchi manga, he'd have failed spectacularly because of his love of intense, emotionally intimate storytelling and illustration. He was simply not capable of (or perhaps more accurately simply uninterested in) the kind of emotional ambivalence that Yamaguchi excels at.

Hell, as I'll discuss later, intimacy vs. ambivalence might be the best summation of the differences between Miura and Yamaguchi's respective styles.

I don't think Yamaguchi would be a great choice for Berserk's action scenes either. Yamaguchi displays his mastery of action illustration by dilating time to show every individuated step of the process of movement, making his action feel intensely deliberate and methodical. Every step, and every step within that greater step, matters.

Kentaro Miura, meanwhile, often did the opposite with Guts, depicting the beginning and end of a sword swing and deliberately excising everything in between to generate a sense of speed and kinetic intensity.

it's kinda of a shame that the Kakugo no Susume / Apocalypse Zero fighting game is so bare-bones cause the levels fucking own :0

[toskarin]

Do you think FMDM was inspired by Kakugo no Susume? It seems like it's particular blend of Kamen Rider, gross psycho-sexual body horror, insane gore and "oh my god what the fuck was wrong with Japan during the 40s Jesus Christ" intersects with FMDM shockingly well.

this might be a strange thing to admit, but I actually haven't gotten around to reading or watching Kakugo no Susume! I'd be inclined to say that, from everything I've heard about it, it probably did take some influence

[wibbleburger]

You need to read Yamaguchi's manga, they're the nucleus that Full Metal Daemon Muramasa emerged from. The blow-by-blow descriptions of sword combat, the Kamen Rider and mecha anime references, the intense violence and psycho-sexual horror, the fascism, Kageaki himself, they all feel like they were shaped by Kakugo no Susume and Shigurui.

(translation+lyrics) 革命のヴィラネス by BΣretta Crossrain

Yeah another one I had tled a while ago but had no time to post. Lyrics down below the cut and see you all next time.

-------------------------------------

革命のヴィラネス Kakumei no Viranesu (Revolutionary Villainess)

Composer: Yoda Takeru

Vocalist: BΣretta Crossrain

Shinzuru seigi ga tame Saa ima kakumei no noroshi wo

For the justice we believe in Light the fire of this revolution

Throw away useless emotions I have to endure it Trust only my both hands Don't look back. Just move on

Osore mo urei sae mo Kono ayumi wo tomeru kase to shite amari ni karuku

My fear and my grief Are like brittle shackles unable to stop me

Kaze ni mau you na usui kotoba de wa Daremo watashi shibare wa shinai

Faint words are carried by the wind I won’t let anyone bind me

Saa takaraka ni hanki wo hiragaeshite Kinou made no zokushiki wo sugu ni uchiotose Sendatsusha usopuku kousetsu kansei de ima mogaki keshita nara Kakumei no hibuta wa sude ni kirareteiru

Now proudly raise the banner of revolution even higher And overthrow the vulgarities of the past Drown away our predecessor’s dogma The flare of revolution has been ignited

Mayoi wa tou no mukashi ni sutesatta Migite ni wa seigi wo hidarite ni wa kakugo wo

I’ve long since discarded my doubts All I hold now is justice in my right hand and resolve on my left hand

Kizutsuku koto mo kizutsukeru koto mo itowanai to chikatta

Even if hurt I'll continue to hurt them Such is the oath I’ve taken

Onore no hinkaku kagasanu tame ni Shitoyakayori shitataka ni are

So as not to taint your dignity I’ll be tough rather than graceful

Saa takaraka ni shouri wo ten ni hoe yo Kaburi wo tareta orokamono ni jihi wa nashi Chou no you ni hachi no you ni karei ni dorokusaku tatakae

Now proclaim your victory loudly towards the heavens No mercy for the fools who bow their heads Like a butterfly, like a bee, fight gracefully yet deadly

Kagi wo kaketa torikago no naka ni etsukeru te Wasure wa shinai darou Saredo watashi wa nidoto furikaeranai Tatoe katsute no tomo wo kono te de yakiharau koto ni nattemo

Being hand fed within a locked birdcage I will not forget Yet I won’t go back to those days I’ve prepared to burn anything with these hands, even past friends

Aa motometa no wa tada jiyuu dake datta Hirogaru sora takaku kakeru yume wo miru Hitori no itami mo kizanda kizu mo Jiki ni ieru darou

All that I yearn for now is freedom To see my dreams rise higher than the skies The pain of loneliness and that of my wounds It’ll fade away soon

Saa takaraka ni shouka wo utai age yo Nozomi kogareta shouri wa ima kono te ni ari Onore wo tataeyo sono ashi de susume jishin de hiraita michi Kakumei no eiyuu tsune ni kodoku de are

Now chant our hymn loudly The victory we’ve yearned for is within our grasp Praise yourself and march on this path For the hero of the revolution is always in solitude

kako ni wa somukete daremo shiranu villain

an unknown villain turning away from the past
