to tell you the honest truth, as an aspiring writer, I hope Yoite stays dead.

Then at least we might have a chance to see some interesting character development out of the rest of the cast, because the latest turn-of-events haven't really been that exciting. I couldn't find myself really caring or worrying about anything happening.

You know, I wonder. There'd be something powerful about him starting over and learning hope...

But it'd be very poignant to have him die, and Miharu overlook his own desires for his loyalty to Yoite's wish.


...but I'm a Yoite fangirl and still cried buckets and want him back, so... ahaha, hypocritical girl is hypocritical.

I'd be lying if I agreed. I'm a gigantic faggot for YoiteMiharu. GIGANTIC FAGGOT.

FUCK it makes me want to SHIT BUNNIES.

The storyline is unique, definately, but with the art level and cliche aspects (retarded ninja run, EVERYONE IS AWESOME IN SOME WAY, typical ninja story stereotypes, etc) my standards for it aren't incredibly high.

In fact, Yoite is the only reason I got as far in the series as I did. The other characters were well-designed, but not really appealing... Miharu was boring before loosing his indifference (thank you, Yoite) and art was... well, quality. I'd rather look into Yun Kouga works.

But I'm a faggot for YoiteMiharu. It makes me more queer than normal. Like a fucking fangirl. Jesus.

Seriously? I think the manga art is some of the best I've ever seen ;___; But that's because I like androgynous faces on my anime males. And stylish clothing... Kamatani's art style is so different from other styles and it just gives a beautiful and touching feel to the characters. The way she draws expressions, oh god...
>> Anonymous
>>1037183

Kamatani's art is generic at best, and her body proportions are almost clampesque. She has a tenuous grasp of anatomy and way of slapping all kinds of mediocre tropes together.

But believe it or not, I'm actually a fan of the series. Or the parts with Raikou in it, anyway.
>> Anonymous
>>1037183
I got into the anime first and then went back and blitzed the manga in like... a day. (It was intense.)

Kamatani's art is really a first for me; I am a hardcore Shoujo girl and I like my sparkles and ruffles and flowery sprinkles. I like shiny screentone and what-the-HELL detailed frames, and ridiculously complicated clothes and environments. I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't attracted to the artwork at first. The proportions were odd and gangly, and the line quality all seemed somewhat the same, and it seemed very... plain, to put it bluntly. The page layouts were also really... Grid-looking, which made the flow of the pages kind of jagged sometimes.

But after reading it a while, I really liked its simplicity. The black and white is very effective, only using tone when it's needed gives it more impact. I even started liking their funky pencil legs and creepy knees! And the way she does faces is refreshing, she's not afraid to have her characters look 'ugly' to get an emotion across. (Unlike in most Shoujo, where a crying heroine might as well be singing a ballad, when Miharu cries over Yoite, his face is all twisted up). I just had to get over my own personal preferences and prejudices, and now I really enjoy the art. :3

Uh, sorry. Hello, text-wall. Unfortunately anything I have at the moment would be reposts, except my own drawfag.

I'll give that her proportions can get weird at times, her fighting scenes are decorative at best, and character poses may look somewhat awkward here and there, but the art itself being generic?

I dunno, I think one of the most beautifully drawn manga I've ever read, and I think I've read... not an insubstantial amount of it. All of the negative aspects said above actually seem to come together and create a sort of fairytale-ish surreal feeling to the whole thing, which works really well. For me anyway. Then again, I'm a fan of the surreal manga genre, and weird drawings seems to be a fact of life round those parts.

>The storyline is unique

Really?? If you view Yoite as a the usual damsel in distress, no, not really. Up until he kicked the bucket of course. (TT___TT) Princesses aren't too fond of doing that, unless they get resurrected later on, it seems.

No, the one refreshing (maybe even unique) aspect of Nabari is definitely the casts, for me. I have my favorites, but I'm fond enough of almost everyone because each person seem to defy the stereotype in one small way or another. Never too much it seems the manga is trying too hard, but enough that I don't feel like I'm only reading a rehash of X character again for the thousandth time.

That, and the angle Katamani chose to tell the story. she took what could've been a stereotypical shounen plot, and tells it almost exclusively as a... love story? (fuck the naysayers, if I were Miharu, I'm SO not going to do all that and a bag of chips unless I'm massively crushing on Yoite, AT LEAST)
>> Rei-chan *???*

I don't understand how you can call Kamatani's art "generic", it's much different looking from the multiple shoujo style copies or anything I've seen before. I'm someone who's attracted to the extraordinary, so when I saw this manga I -loved- the art. There's a certain fluidness to the lines that makes the expressions look soft yet severe at the same time. But everyone has their entitled opinions.

I also just bought the artbook~ /brag

I wouldn't say the art is generic, but at the same time, it's not extremely unique. It seems like a mixture of Clamp's weird dangly tarantula legs and Yun Kouga's rather simplistic toning.

Don't get me wrong - Yun Kouga is my idol because of how obvious her improvement is between every volume of her work, and because how she uses more of a sharp contrast than a realistic tone to emphasize a more fantasy feel. And while Clamp's tarantula-legs are weird at times, they do have a bit of aesthetic appeal to them.

The art style of Nabari is good, but it's not EXCEPTIONAL to me, as Yun Kouga and Clamp are. Perhaps because it's less extreme in those ways.

The expression in the manga is definately the key to the artwork, and the characters make the plot worthwhile. Otherwise, it's a second Naruto.

The artist is a narutard, after all.

>>Otherwise, it's a second Naruto.
Clearly this series is more mature though. If you understand the characters enough. But it does seem like she copied a little seeing as how she's a fan and there are SOME connections. If you look at it purely plot-wise. Which apparently isn't what Nabari is about. So clearly they are different. If Nabari had retarded long fight scenes and and fucktarded lead characters who have annoying catch phrases, then it would be the same. And thank god it doesn't.

SORRY FOR THE SLIGHT NERDRAGE...
For a change of subject, Miharu and Yoite's outfits in this are GORGEOUS.

Wasn't Miharu's true wish to make Yoite disappear, right? I have my hopes, and we only will know what truly happened in the next chapter.
But we can have sure that Miharu used the shisomething and a few memories of Yoite probably were erased and that Yukimi is dead LOL.

I'm not a HUGE fangirl, but I love the relationship between Miharu and Yoite, is the unique reason to me read the manga.

Technically MiharuxYoite isn't yaoi or het... lol But I guess RaikouxGau kinda is. There are straight pairings in it as well though. So it pretty much covers every sexuality. (QUITE LITERALLY)

But uhh, back on topic... The character interactions are my favorite part about this series. I don't know how to describe it, it's just.... really touching. It's rare for me to get emotional while watching/reading something but Nabari pushes my limits in the most wonderful way. So take that as you will.

Yoite pretty much self-identifies as a male this time around, but he's pretty self-destructive about this persona, and adamant that it not be allowed to exist.

I think that if he came back as a girl, it would kind of give him a fresh start? It would help him accept that this body wasn't "Yoite" but somebody worth living as, despite his misgivings. (Despite all this, I would really rather boy!Yoite, the reasons for which being obvious)
