Giganto Maxia

Product Information

Written and illustrated by Kentaro Miura, Giganto Maxia was Miura's first completely original work in 24 years since Berserk. [3] It was serialized for six chapters in Hakusensha's seinen manga magazine Young Animal from November 22, 2013, to February 14, 2014. [4] [5] A bonus chapter was published on March 14, 2014. [6] [7] Hakusensha collected its chapters in a single tankōbon volume, released on July 29, 2014. [8] Who needs to develop a reason for an ending when you can simply wash away all the negative parts in a convenient holier than thou false moralism and Deus ex machina. Luring in Prey: Sand anglers are a species of anglerfish that has adapted to living on land. They bury themselves under the sand and disguise themselves as an oasis to fool unsuspecting creatures to jump in their water-filled mouth. They even have a palm tree growing from their head in the place of the usual lure.

Peccato, il world-building dell'ambientazione era notevole e con 4-5 volumi in più il wrestler Delos e la piccola Prome(teo) sarebbero stati due personaggi interessanti invece di una pseudo-parodia di Gatsu e Pak... ma visto il finale aperto potremmo vedere un seguito in futuro. Sin embargo, aunque hay mucho potencial en la obra, al final se queda en un vistazo a lo que podría ser un trabajo mucho más extenso y por supuesto, no puedo ignorar el extraño fetiche que tiene el autor con la protagonista, el cual, por cierto, nunca había visto en otro personaje antes (no se si esto es bueno o es malo, pero sí que es innecesario).

Visto che Berserk procedeva fin troppo speditamente (ma anche no) qualche anno fa Miura si è preso una pausa dal sua manga più famoso e si è dedicato a questa storia autoconclusiva (o no?) frullandoci dentro tutto quello che gli veniva in mente al momento: mitologia greca, Nausicaa nella valle del vento, l'Attacco dei Giganti (sta avendo successo, quindi posso farci soldi pure io), Final Fantasy, ecc. Humans by Any Other Name: Baseline humans are known as the "Hugh" and demi-human races like the Scarabaei as the "Mew", presumably short for "Humans" and "Mutants". If you go into this short series expecting an ultra-violent, dark and gritty, edgy series, you will be sadly let down. What I found while reading this that while it does seem a bit generic at points, there are some really fascinating ideas, decent characters, amazing art, and a few really well done fights. There's no conclusion. The "ending" is some Gainax Ending that is the terror of any anime/manga fans who had experiences with bad endings, and can cause chills down the spine of Berserk fans if you stop to think that Miura could have done this to Berserk. At least we know from his final interview there WOULD be at least 2 main battles against the evildoers and the main characters wouldn't just hide their heads in the sand and become farmers because muh conflict bad.

Loo, Egan (November 3, 2013). "Berserk Manga to Resume After Miura Runs 6-Chapter Mini-Series". Anime News Network. Archived from the original on November 18, 2021 . Retrieved May 20, 2021. Updated August 2, 2023 by Ritwik Mitra: Not every manga needs to be a multi-chapter epic masterpiece that is filled to the brim with uncountable characters, multiple arcs, and long-running plotlines that last for hundreds of chapters. Sometimes, the manga that stays in the minds of people are the ones that are brief but focused, keeping readers on the edge of their seats for this short yet amazing ride that can be truly wild if a really creative mangaka is at the helm of things.Immense Speed: Despite his gargantuan bulk, Gigantomachia exhibits incredible running speed, powerful enough to rip the trees out of the ground as he runs past them. [11] He can run at least up to 100 kilometers (62.137 miles) per hour. [12] Oct 28 NBA Star Rui Hachimura Gets Animated and Possibly Saves the World in New Crayon Shin-chan Episode

To explain this better before entering the manga storyline, here's a brief description: In Greek mythology, the Giants were a race of great strength and aggression - though not necessarily large - known as Gigantomachia or Giganto Makhia and their battles with the Olympian gods. According to Hesiod, the Giants were the children of Gaia (Earth), born of the blood that fell when Uranus (Heaven) was castrated by Titan son of Cronus. In North America, the series was licensed for English release by Dark Horse Comics. [9] The collected volume was released on February 3, 2016. [10] No. Energy Saver ( エネルギー 効 ( こう ) 率 ( りつ ) , Enerugī Kōritsu ?): Gigantomachia's fifth Quirk allows his body to function on very small amounts of nutrition and hydration, allowing him to fully function on a minimal amount of sleep. [10] [2] I cant really talk too much about the plot, as it so short, that any more details beyond this basic set-up might be considered spoiler. The art is probably the weakest point. I admit it’s detailed and appealing in some ways, but when the fights were happening, the panels were confusing and hard to understand who’s doing what.

Creo que, en este caso puntual, el dibujo se lleva todo el crédito por encima de la historia. Verdaderamente está a otro nivel. This deep respect and loyalty towards his master, however, does not impede him from feeling negative emotions towards his decisions. Gigantomachia was greatly saddened when All For One left him alone to go into hiding, and felt betrayed when he, in Tomura's body, abandoned him during the Paranormal Liberation War. As a result, he chose to take out all his anger on his master once he was freed, inadvertently helping the Heroes fight him. [9] Abilities [ ] Pasando a hablar ya del manga en sí, tenemos justo lo que puede esperarse: un dibujo absolutamente magnífico que aunque ya es de la época en la que Miura pasó al dibujo digital, perdiendo con ello un poco de nivel y cambiando su estilo a peor, no deja de ser excelso y de desencajar la mandíbula, en especial con esos dibujos a página completa y a doble página de los que está repleto. Un deleite visual y artístico con parajes y seres de auténtica fantasía y pesadilla que sin duda llevan su sello. Fantastic Racism: The Myuu, or the demi-human tribes, despise the human tribes who are all considered to be "dogs of the Empire". On the other hand, according to Ogun, the trespassing Hyuu use to call the Scarabaei people "bugs". Y aunque sorprende que plantee un mundo que podría explotarse mucho más y con bastantes posibilidades a la hora de desarrollarlo que es una lástima que se quede en un solo tomito, es cierto que también puede quedarse perfectamente en solo lo que vemos aquí y quedarse como una disfrutable e interesante historia corta ligera y de muy fácil lectura pero con cierta profundidad. Comentar también que a pesar de ser también seinen tiene un contenido mucho más suave que Berserk, sin desnudos, sexo, ni escenas grotescas ni de mucho gore.
