This is very informative. I love to know about how ONE got his inspiration to write and draw these amazing webcomics and mangas. The fact that his desire to become a mangaka was from reading shin chan 🤣 i just love his humor so much
As someone who grew up with Shin Chan on tv, I can assure you that the humor was unlike anything around (compare it to like, Inuyasha or Medabots or whatever) t and the badly drawn characters had a style of their own that made them appealing. My guess is that's the part ONE took as inspiration.
@@Jonsoner Yup. When i was little, shin chan and doraemon were the shows kids in my country watched growing up. i was so confused as to why shin chan kept on showing his butt around and wriggles all over the place. But the show is just so fun and has that unique humor that makes it entertaining. Love that ONE finds some inspiration to become a mangaka from a show that has become a childhood memory for most people
ONE's artstyle is the *only* part that one might consider lacking, though at this point it might as well be a deliberate stylistic choice. His storytelling chops, gags, designs, and characters are all top notch. But for my money, what sets him apart is his storyboarding ability. His ability to frame scenes and create flow is among the best in the industry imo.
agreed! Even if it isn't 'traditionally' good I think the fact that it's his own is what makes it special. His storytelling is next level as well, just an overall legend
@@themangoose And you can tell by how well they translate to anime, especially with MP100! The storyboard artists have half their work already done for them haha
This just reinforced my belief that story matters more than the quality of the art and don’t get me wrong having great art to compliment the story is nice but if the story is uninteresting or mediocre then I’m more likely to give up on that manga or anime and go looking for something else that is more compelling This same belief goes for games as well the game maybe a triple A game but if it’s boring I start playing other game
The best thing ONE achieved is to create a story that genuinely fits to his artstyle, like this is a gag manga, ofc with superpowers and cool characters but having humor playing the biggest role, his drawings were still good enough to support the story, it even helped in making the humor better. This combination of specific artstyle with specific type of story is what truly matters the most. You don't need to have insane drawing skills to attract people's attention, you need to come up with a story that fits to your artstyle the best.
@@franciscolaurean8550 he admitted about his work on OPM that because it's a hobby he does for fun, he purposefully doesn't put much effort in since while he can draw well, it stresses him out if it doesn't look good after putting in a lot of effort and doesn't like doing it. However there are a few times where we can see what he can really do if he's willing to put in a bunch of effort on it (like the reveal of "God" where he spent a bunch of time on the one page just to see how far he could go, which is probably the best looking page in the whole webcomic in terms of clean/polish).
The fact that OPM even got enough attention to be redrawn speaks volumes of ONE's skill as a creator. I'm so happy that man has found success. He deserves every bit of it. Not one, but TWO comics from a guy who started out online all on his own getting extremely popular anime adaptations? And then MP100 didn't even get redrawn. ONE has always been stellar at composition and visual storytelling (which are just as important as more immediately obvious aspects of art, and often more difficult to pull off), so once his art leveled up just enough to be more confident and consistent, everything was golden. MP100 is a gem and I love how Bones maintained so many elements of the original art style (that got lost in translation with OPM) when adapting it. Plus he seems like such a good guy. I feel like he lets his personality, thoughts, and ideals shine through in his works, and there's so much genuineness in the messaging (especially in MP100) that it really hits home. Love him. Love this guy.
to be fair i think that ONE and Murata are some of the best duos in the manga/anime industry, one of them presenting an amazingly unique and funny story different from the mainstream shonen today, and the other making absolutely amazing art to accompany saitama and the heroes' fights (literally some of the best manga art i've seen in a long time, just look at the recent chapters)
Mob Psycho is a true opus, and I'm super thankful to Studio Bones for sticking with it. With season 3 coming very soon, the anime will have a consistent high quality from start to finish. It won't have to go through the same drama as its sibling series.
The problem with OPM is that if madhouse stuck with it, it would’ve been terrible for the second season since madhouse has gone super downhill with the staff moving to studios like Mappa
I mean, compared to other mainstream mangaka, we can admit that his art can't compete with them. This made me remember Isayama Hajime's pilot for Attack on Titan. It received high ratings for story but low ratings for art but then became one of the biggest manga of its decade despite the "bad" art.
I actually like One's art style of mob psycho on the manga. It really fits the funny theme and I really, really love mob psycho 100. And One collabing with Murata for OPM is amazing. Murata's panels for the fights are amazing, even blessing us with colored ones. So glad they got together. I follow them both on twitter and found amazing artists from their retweets.
i was just going to say this. i prefer one’s art over murata. it’s part of the charm. another example of this would be one piece. oda also gets flak from people who say his art is “bad”, but one piece wouldn’t be the same if it had “serious/dope/raw” art. oda’s eccentric, whimsical art style works so well for one piece. i wouldn’t have it any other way. it’s one of the reasons why i prefer mp100 over opm. one’s art for mp100 suits the story while i feel like murata’s art somewhat changes the tone of opm’s story
@@nmpoy true actually. Murata kinda mixes his own perspective already just by being the illustrator. I don't mind since it looks cool but the original tone which is more humorous and fit with ONE's fun storytelling. It's something I noticed with the newer chapters of OPM since ONE is still drawing his casual drafts. The spirit of the story which initally attracted me is gone in Murata's works while still present in ONE ofc
Goes to show that as long as the story is good and capture the audience's attention, artstyle doesn't necessarily take away from the enjoyment. One can actually draw though as there are some panels in Mob that are really good
Same reason Ranking of Kings was a success. People do value cool art but they value a gripping story, characters and passion more. With the anime it became a success to the rest of the world as well.
Respect for him for dropping the story after he made the final boss to hard to beat 😂 Authors these days if they put themselves in the same scenario, they would just find a bullshit way out or just use power of friendship
Gotta respect how self-made this man is. He went against the status quo over and over again. Regardless of all the rejection or the criticism of his drawing, he managed to stay persistent and reach his goal in the end. Young men typically idolize people who are famous actors or athletes because of their natural talent, but there is nothing to learn from that. What you can learn from ONE's life story is the importance of tenacity and quiet patience.
I never really thought ONE’s art was bad. His characters are so full of life and movement that it really makes up for its lack of apparent technique; definitely being one of my favourite art styles of all time.
@@Keylogen everyone has different tastes. I absolutely adore his style it's charming and unique. OPM didn't need to be redone. Yusuke was a huge fan of OPM and reached out to ONE and wanted to work with him.
Both One and Murata improved alot trough out the years, the last chapters... hell the entire currenct arc (wich is very very big) are easilly the best Chapters I have read in years, and that's saying alot
I remember reading a Q&A thread featuring some of the producers at Madhouse and the storyboard director was loosing his shit because half his job was done for him through ONE’s drafts/webcomics. That goes to show how phenomenal his ability to set a scene is; with how easily ONE’s work translated to anime/motion picture it really makes you wonder what tf J.C. Staff was smokin to fumble the bag that badly 💀
@@HuehuehueEsBest Salt, basically. The first season looks better than the overwhelming majority of all anime ever, the second season reaching the level of "good" just looks really bad by comparison. Not going to shittalk JC Staff though, they did a fantastic job on plenty of other things even if I was one of the people disappointed by season 2.
I saw the title and I immediately thought about ONE lol. His creations always gave me comfort and inspired me to keep on drawing because he created two of my most favorite series despite his lack of skill in art. I especially love mp100 because I was a shy kid when I was younger and I could relate to mob and some of the other characters :’)
I am very grateful for Yusuke Murata for finding One's potential and polishing the already great story with his amazing drawing dynamic. To this day I still get goosebumps rereading EyeShield 21 and One Punch Man.
Dude this is an amazing video, it’s amazing because murata is literally my favorite manga artist, one punch man is within my top 3 manga of all time… but I always felt like it was hard to learn about the creators because mangaka are just so private about their lives which is understandable. So the fact you were able to find all this and present it beautifully was just a joy to watch thanks man!
truly, a good manga isnt consisted with flashy art, sometimes, proper framing, scene preparation and others really set the great mood of a manga. I can say this cause alot of mangas suffer from this, even with the artist's detailed art, they cant fully capture the true moment and feel on that scene
Ever since first watching Mob Psycho 100 I always wondered if ONE based Shigeo on himself. The character really shines as an incredibly accurate representation of an awkward teenage; I feel like I can relate to Shigeo better than any other fictional character. Makes me think about the other characters in his work and whether he based them on real people. Here's hoping the people ONE played tennis with are like the boys in the body improvement club.
Wow this video is so good, great editing and presentation! I recently got into Mob Psycho 100 (anime version) myself, I enjoyed OPM but I'm enjoying Mob Psycho a lot more. It was really interesting to learn the history of ONE!
I watched season 1 of MP100 once but I've watched OPM over and over. I still remember it coming out weekly on Hulu and I would just start from episode 1 each week. Then the dub came out bout 6 months later and I started over. Mob has an alright story but I didn't want to rewatch it.
One may not be good at drawing in a typical sense, his composition and ability to do panel layouts are fucking stellar. The drawings aren't great, but his manga is so easy to read and great to look at. It doesn't matter about how good his drawings are, you can tell what he is trying to draw and that is enough for his storytelling abilities and composition abilities to carry.
Really cool relationship between these two artists, glad one is getting recognized for his talent, you know they both love their work and it seems like a nice mutual benefit
It feels like an actual manga, the guy with so much talent faces a huge obstacle (his drawing) and a sick man that is almost dying kinda wanted as a last wish to work with him just when One was actually considering to retire and just dedicate to a normal job, they both ended up working together as one of the best duos in manga history and getting so much success.
It makes me sad that JC staff gets such a bad rap for season 2 of one punch man when in reality there was no way they could of gotten it to the quality of season 1, if you do a bit of research you’ll find out the absolute very best in anime production all came together to do season 1 as a passion project when it came time to do season 2 they couldn’t get everyone back to work on it because of scheduling issues, it’s unfair to blame JC staff for that
I definitely still enjoyed opm season 2 and I don't blame them for what happened. It's kind of a tough thing though for fans to see something so gorgeous drop in quality so I get the frustration from both sides for sure.
@@themangoose especially when you realize that jc doesn’t usually do large scale action shows, the show style being very artistic and sharp and having like one year I think to actually animate it.
Still, Jc staff is known for having mediocre animation at best for most of their anime. If the studio that animated season 2 was bones, oh god it would've been awesome.
@@davidreacts8786 Funny thing about that is that I think in season 1 madhouse also did a lot of outsourcing from bones. Also, I think season 2 looked pretty good personally. Nothing really bad imo besides one sequence in the *opening* of all places. Just nowhere near the quality of season 1.
@@djroscurro9859 The thing is, even if Jk studio's attempt of opm season 2 has "decent" animation, because of Murata having one of the best art in the history of manga, it's a disgrace lol.
Two different thing OPM about the whole concept of heroism while Mob is about a teenager growth. A story that focus to a single character should be more easy to be related.
What makes ONE's story resonate with so many people is that he's a true example of success through passion and perserverance and we've been able to witness it in real time. And we're not only aware of the highs of his career but the lows letting us all know that even the most successful artists are normal people who still have struggles in finding their audience. At the end of it all, Mob Psycho 100 is on its way to become what I consider to be a "perfect" anime series, a title shared only with Cowboy Bebop.
agreed! his story is so inspirational, and it's nice to see his continued progress. Absolutely love mob as well, it has so many layers that are just perfection
@@Traesto "Sun Man" it was a manga he drew while he was around 9yo so no one actually read it,also boros travelled for 20 years to find a good opponent to fight,little did we know that those 20 years were irl time as One created OPM 20 years after Sun Man.I love ONE for this little easter eggs he put in his mangas
ONE is one of the best cartoonists I’ve ever seen tbh. I’ve read manga where the artist has plenty of technical drawing skills but really just falls flat when it comes to layouts and visual storytelling. But Mob Psycho 100 is one of those gems that never loses its impact no matter how many times I reread it. Some of the page turns still give me chills to this day. ONE has a really amazing cinematic eye, along with his amazing comedic timing and visual gags lol. There’s never a disconnect between the humor and those intense emotional moments. Nothing feels contrived or exploitative. Just total sincerity, and so readers can’t help but approach it with sincerity, too. People have really rigid ideas about what “good” cartooning (and animation, too) looks like, but I actually really prefer ONE’s art to Murata’s, if I’m being honest. Looking back at how he drew Fubuki and Tatsumaki in his webcomic, I’m always shocked at how much more… character they have. Those heavy black contrasts in Fubuki’s hair and dress really give the impression of an intense and troubled person. And Tatsumaki being drawn as such a silly looking character is so effective as an aspect of why Fubuki is so terrified of her. Tatsumaki is so powerful that everything is trivial to her. But the way that Murata draws them… He’s a very talented guy. But it’s just not the same. I don’t need Fubuki and Tatsumaki to be beautiful. I need to feel what they’re feeling.
Mob Psycho 100 is one of the greatest anime of all time. Masterful work by BONES combined with the visionary genius of ONE, a total deconstruction of the Shonen genre and a deeper story than other anime has to offer.
Total deconstruction??? Nah man. Still a shitty shounen in the end lmaooo. Bunch of shounen cliches here and there. Lmaoooo go watch gundam and slap you back to reality. OPM > mob psycho
This was really informative! I think ONE's ability to tell a story makes up for his rough art style so much that it makes his art look like it was meant to be like that all along
honestly hella inspiring ive been trying my hand at storyboarding for a little over a year now but becuase of my effectively complete lack of art skills i havent got around to really fleshing out a series knowing that people can succeed and make amazing works of art without drawing talents of their own has really stirred me up very much so considering putting the effort into writing and drawing a full chapter
Ima be honest, I read one punch man (one) while one punch man was way far behind. Is his art perfect? No, does it show exactly what it needs to and gets the story across? Absolutely. Mans a brilliant story teller.
mob psycho 100 is one of my favorite animes and i think is probably the best anime I've ever watched, I'm glad you shed light on that anime because for the most part i only see opm (which i love) but its always nice seeing mp100 get the recognition it deserves. I def think mp100 is one of the best animes to come out in 2010's.
I dont even know how by face but I new instantly it was about one Can't draw? Doesn't matter. Just makes incredibly fun to watch lighthearted social commentary
This is a brilliant video. ONE's story is extremely inspiring for anyone who is worried they are not good enough. ONE is talented and it's awesome how his online webcomic gained so much traction His story is so good!!!
If something doesn't meet standards it doesn't mean you can't draw. The lines are messy and the anatomy is scuffed but it's got a charm that people to this day still love. Comparing yourself to other artists is only going to kill your motivation because you're never able to achieve the same style perfectly nor should you.
I still remember when i found OPM when it's still just a sketch style from ONE. a few years before it's become famous outside Japan. The art is not good but the story is unique and amazing. I told my friend about this and said to him this will be famous one day.
The writing , especially the humor , in One Punch Man and Mob is brilliant and the art work is unique , love both of those series and can hardly wait for those to come back in the form of anime .
ONE's artstyle may not be perfect, but man, he can tell a phenomenal story. What's nice is that his artstyle really fits with the humor, to the point where Murata would throw in ONE's artstyle every now and then to exploit said humor. Mob Psycho 100 and One-Punch Man are fantastic stories.
One of the most notables writers of this century hands down and one of the best illustrator of this century no doubt about it thats how good they are!!!
Ah I remember when I first saw One punch the first time, there was not much from the re-drawn chapters there, and I've found the OG ones and read them all till the current chapters back then. It was great! This was probably 2013, 2014? I never connected Mob and One Punch together, but looking back yeah, similar style and great stories I should have known^^. For a while I haven't read much manga, got pulled into Wuxia/Xianxia light novels ^^ I should give it a shot again.
Definitely worth getting back into manga, there are a lot of great stories, and I've never gotten into Wuxia or Xianxia, but they seem very interesting!
It's a wonderful, inspirational story. the fact that even with hardship, when your skills seem outclassed and life makes things difficult.. perseverance can ultimately pay off. I say "can" because realistically it doesn't always work out as you want.. but give it your all and who knows where you might end up?
This was my favorite series until the latest arc in the manga. Such a shame it's become yet another shonen cliche, it had such a promising satirical approach.
This is very informative. I love to know about how ONE got his inspiration to write and draw these amazing webcomics and mangas. The fact that his desire to become a mangaka was from reading shin chan 🤣 i just love his humor so much
thank you, and agreed! I didn't know how much shin chan had such a large impact!

@@themangoose seriously man, fasten your seatbelts, the latest chapters have been FIRE
Worst arc for me
Because my most two favorite characters gonna die. Dunno about the destroyed one but the other is dead for sure.
@@iguoyrxayananikihs9505 who?
the comedy in webcomic opm is beautifully written and the storytelling was superior too while the humor is so subtle
agreed, his storytelling is just next level
I remember reading a Q&A thread featuring some of the producers at Madhouse and the storyboard director was loosing his shit because half his job was done for him through ONE’s drafts/webcomics. That goes to show how phenomenal his ability to set a scene is; with how easily ONE’s work translated to anime/motion picture it really makes you wonder what tf J.C. Staff was smokin to fumble the bag that badly 💀
😂 fr! Still enjoyed the series but gave me a ton of trust issues after
Where'd you get that thread could you send me a link id love to read it
The choreography of season 1 was way too good for JC to replicate
@@HuehuehueEsBest Salt, basically. The first season looks better than the overwhelming majority of all anime ever, the second season reaching the level of "good" just looks really bad by comparison.
Not going to shittalk JC Staff though, they did a fantastic job on plenty of other things even if I was one of the people disappointed by season 2.
I saw the title and I immediately thought about ONE lol. His creations always gave me comfort and inspired me to keep on drawing because he created two of my most favorite series despite his lack of skill in art. I especially love mp100 because I was a shy kid when I was younger and I could relate to mob and some of the other characters :’)
agreed! I also resonated so much with mob, glad you kept drawing, never give up! 😄
I am very grateful for Yusuke Murata for finding One's potential and polishing the already great story with his amazing drawing dynamic.
To this day I still get goosebumps rereading EyeShield 21 and One Punch Man.
It was the perfect combo of great storytelling and art coming together!
Dude this is an amazing video, it’s amazing because murata is literally my favorite manga artist, one punch man is within my top 3 manga of all time… but I always felt like it was hard to learn about the creators because mangaka are just so private about their lives which is understandable. So the fact you were able to find all this and present it beautifully was just a joy to watch thanks man!
ahh thank you sooo much, this comment made my day, I'm glad you enjoyed the vid! 😅
Mf stalking a mangaka
In OPM, I always thought ONE had a fantastic art direction. Yes, the art wasn't the best, but he was fantastic at framing and conveying motion.
truly, a good manga isnt consisted with flashy art, sometimes, proper framing, scene preparation and others really set the great mood of a manga. I can say this cause alot of mangas suffer from this, even with the artist's detailed art, they cant fully capture the true moment and feel on that scene
agreed! He knows how to captivate by using his strengths, which is brilliant to me
Ever since first watching Mob Psycho 100 I always wondered if ONE based Shigeo on himself. The character really shines as an incredibly accurate representation of an awkward teenage; I feel like I can relate to Shigeo better than any other fictional character. Makes me think about the other characters in his work and whether he based them on real people. Here's hoping the people ONE played tennis with are like the boys in the body improvement club.
Yeah I definitely love mob because he is so relatable in that aspect. Also, that would be awesome the body improvement club is the best 😅
Actually the body improvement club was based off of the gym bros the author met when he was depressed and started working out
That would be so wholesome
This is truly inspirational for anyone who decides to take a career path related to art.
This video definitely deserves more views! Good job 👍🏻
Thank you so much! Appreciate the kind words 🙂
One's story of starting at rock-bottom, and then becoming as one of the best mangakas is so inspiring to me.
it honestly is super motivating
Wow this video is so good, great editing and presentation! I recently got into Mob Psycho 100 (anime version) myself, I enjoyed OPM but I'm enjoying Mob Psycho a lot more. It was really interesting to learn the history of ONE!
thanks so much! agreed, I really like opm, but once I saw mob psycho I fell in love haha such interesting characters
@@themangoose Yup I agree! The characters really make Mob Psycho special
samee mob psycho is one of my favorites right now
I watched season 1 of MP100 once but I've watched OPM over and over. I still remember it coming out weekly on Hulu and I would just start from episode 1 each week. Then the dub came out bout 6 months later and I started over. Mob has an alright story but I didn't want to rewatch it.
One's story-telling is simply another level, what with his multi-layered narratives!
agreed! the man is a genius!
One may not be good at drawing in a typical sense, his composition and ability to do panel layouts are fucking stellar. The drawings aren't great, but his manga is so easy to read and great to look at. It doesn't matter about how good his drawings are, you can tell what he is trying to draw and that is enough for his storytelling abilities and composition abilities to carry.
agreed! Knowing he puts so much effort behind the scenes on storyboarding makes so much sense
Really cool relationship between these two artists, glad one is getting recognized for his talent, you know they both love their work and it seems like a nice mutual benefit
It feels like an actual manga, the guy with so much talent faces a huge obstacle (his drawing) and a sick man that is almost dying kinda wanted as a last wish to work with him just when One was actually considering to retire and just dedicate to a normal job, they both ended up working together as one of the best duos in manga history and getting so much success.
haha so true! They should just create that story at some point
An interesting fact is that Shin-chan also lives in Saitama, so it is clear that One just loves that place.
ohh no way, makes me want to visit haha
It makes me sad that JC staff gets such a bad rap for season 2 of one punch man when in reality there was no way they could of gotten it to the quality of season 1, if you do a bit of research you’ll find out the absolute very best in anime production all came together to do season 1 as a passion project when it came time to do season 2 they couldn’t get everyone back to work on it because of scheduling issues, it’s unfair to blame JC staff for that
I definitely still enjoyed opm season 2 and I don't blame them for what happened. It's kind of a tough thing though for fans to see something so gorgeous drop in quality so I get the frustration from both sides for sure.
@@themangoose especially when you realize that jc doesn’t usually do large scale action shows, the show style being very artistic and sharp and having like one year I think to actually animate it.
Still, Jc staff is known for having mediocre animation at best for most of their anime. If the studio that animated season 2 was bones, oh god it would've been awesome.
@@davidreacts8786 Funny thing about that is that I think in season 1 madhouse also did a lot of outsourcing from bones.
Also, I think season 2 looked pretty good personally. Nothing really bad imo besides one sequence in the *opening* of all places. Just nowhere near the quality of season 1.
@@djroscurro9859 The thing is, even if Jk studio's attempt of opm season 2 has "decent" animation, because of Murata having one of the best art in the history of manga, it's a disgrace lol.
honestly mob psycho was much better than one punch man after reading both manga mob psycho was overall better
I like mob better personally as well, I really enjoy the character depth in that story
They got more drama i thing,,,i just watch the anime they so defrent
Two different thing OPM about the whole concept of heroism while Mob is about a teenager growth. A story that focus to a single character should be more easy to be related.
What makes ONE's story resonate with so many people is that he's a true example of success through passion and perserverance and we've been able to witness it in real time. And we're not only aware of the highs of his career but the lows letting us all know that even the most successful artists are normal people who still have struggles in finding their audience. At the end of it all, Mob Psycho 100 is on its way to become what I consider to be a "perfect" anime series, a title shared only with Cowboy Bebop.
agreed! his story is so inspirational, and it's nice to see his continued progress. Absolutely love mob as well, it has so many layers that are just perfection
The villain that was too strong to beat on one of his previous manga was actually Boros
What manga is it?
@@Traesto "Sun Man" it was a manga he drew while he was around 9yo so no one actually read it,also boros travelled for 20 years to find a good opponent to fight,little did we know that those 20 years were irl time as One created OPM 20 years after Sun Man.I love ONE for this little easter eggs he put in his mangas
I proud of ONE and very happy that Yuuske Murata actually reached out to him. OPM art is godly and the storyline is just 💖
such a wonderful duo!!
I loved Season 2. People are so damn picky it's unreal. Your videos are amazing man, glad I fell upon this.
agreed haha I still love the show no matter what, and thank you so much!!
ONE is one of the best cartoonists I’ve ever seen tbh. I’ve read manga where the artist has plenty of technical drawing skills but really just falls flat when it comes to layouts and visual storytelling. But Mob Psycho 100 is one of those gems that never loses its impact no matter how many times I reread it. Some of the page turns still give me chills to this day. ONE has a really amazing cinematic eye, along with his amazing comedic timing and visual gags lol. There’s never a disconnect between the humor and those intense emotional moments. Nothing feels contrived or exploitative. Just total sincerity, and so readers can’t help but approach it with sincerity, too.
People have really rigid ideas about what “good” cartooning (and animation, too) looks like, but I actually really prefer ONE’s art to Murata’s, if I’m being honest. Looking back at how he drew Fubuki and Tatsumaki in his webcomic, I’m always shocked at how much more… character they have. Those heavy black contrasts in Fubuki’s hair and dress really give the impression of an intense and troubled person. And Tatsumaki being drawn as such a silly looking character is so effective as an aspect of why Fubuki is so terrified of her. Tatsumaki is so powerful that everything is trivial to her. But the way that Murata draws them… He’s a very talented guy. But it’s just not the same. I don’t need Fubuki and Tatsumaki to be beautiful. I need to feel what they’re feeling.
He cant draw but he can tell one hell of a story. Theres so much more complexities that go into a good manga wherein ONE excels at
yess his storytelling is honestly next level!
Yusuke Murata's art is amazing. I loved his work in the Eyeshield 21 manga.
yess!
Mob Psycho 100 is one of the greatest anime of all time. Masterful work by BONES combined with the visionary genius of ONE, a total deconstruction of the Shonen genre and a deeper story than other anime has to offer.
Total deconstruction??? Nah man. Still a shitty shounen in the end lmaooo. Bunch of shounen cliches here and there. Lmaoooo go watch gundam and slap you back to reality.
OPM > mob psycho
This was an amazing feature for this. Really enjoyed this! Thank you
His ideas were greater then his artistic talents and he made something beautiful
This was really informative! I think ONE's ability to tell a story makes up for his rough art style so much that it makes his art look like it was meant to be like that all along
ONE has recently started a new project btw, and I'm absolutely sure it's gonna be as epic as Mob Psycho and One-Punch Man!
I definitely knew its ONE from the title, he's a freaking genius
I love knowing more about ONE, literally a inspiration for his mangas/stories like mob psycho 😭.
his storytelling is incredible, and mob was so relatable in so many ways
honestly hella inspiring
ive been trying my hand at storyboarding for a little over a year now but becuase of my effectively complete lack of art skills i havent got around to really fleshing out a series
knowing that people can succeed and make amazing works of art without drawing talents of their own has really stirred me up
very much so considering putting the effort into writing and drawing a full chapter
Good luck and don't give up :)
definitely keep at it! Everything worth it takes time, and I'm sure in no time you'll see some great improvements!
Ima be honest, I read one punch man (one) while one punch man was way far behind. Is his art perfect? No, does it show exactly what it needs to and gets the story across? Absolutely. Mans a brilliant story teller.
I honestly did not expect for me to be as emotional as I was when watching this. I shed a few tears after all.
What an amazing journey.
One's way of story telling is really something that most mangaka nowadays lack.
agreed! he is very special when it comes to his storytelling
mob psycho 100 is one of my favorite animes and i think is probably the best anime I've ever watched, I'm glad you shed light on that anime because for the most part i only see opm (which i love) but its always nice seeing mp100 get the recognition it deserves. I def think mp100 is one of the best animes to come out in 2010's.
imagine if Murata didn't each out or find out about One
the world wouldn't be the same 😥
I dont even know how by face but I new instantly it was about one
Can't draw? Doesn't matter. Just makes incredibly fun to watch lighthearted social commentary
You deserve way more subscribers! Awesome video. Good luck with the future of your channel!
ahh thank you so muich for the kind words, appreciate you checking it out! 😅
this was a great video :)
MOB 3 IS GONNA BE AMAZING!!
I CANT WAIT!!!!
This is a brilliant video. ONE's story is extremely inspiring for anyone who is worried they are not good enough. ONE is talented and it's awesome how his online webcomic gained so much traction
His story is so good!!!
New subscriber, definitely going to be binging ur channel!
thank you so much, that means a lot! 🙂
@@themangoose of course!!
6:31 outstanding works of art😁
If something doesn't meet standards it doesn't mean you can't draw. The lines are messy and the anatomy is scuffed but it's got a charm that people to this day still love. Comparing yourself to other artists is only going to kill your motivation because you're never able to achieve the same style perfectly nor should you.
of course! I just speak from a general consensus at the time. I think his art is unique which differentiates itself and he improves all the time
9:25 just like MOB and Reigen , such great artists that complement each other, beautiful
I haven't read the manga but I have seen some panels. I love mob psycho. The story is great and I love the characters sm. I'm glad it got big
agreed, love mob soo much! 😄
seriously, one punch man has become so iconic, it simply cant be overlooked when it comes to action comedy animes. This guy really did a great job
Video is so high quality i didn't realise it has only 2k views
Ahh appreciate you checking it out! 😅
@@themangoose dude that’s a good vid bro he’s right I thought it had 100k views
Awesome, video man! I knew ONE didn’t start off super strong in drawing, but getting some insight in how he started is really inspiring.
Murata swooped in like a thief in the night
😂 was a great move for both
ONE is a true genius. His stories are one of a kind. His partnership with Yusuke Murata resulted in one of the greatest series of all times.
I still remember when i found OPM when it's still just a sketch style from ONE. a few years before it's become famous outside Japan. The art is not good but the story is unique and amazing. I told my friend about this and said to him this will be famous one day.
you see the future 👀
I’m so glad ONE was born because if he wasn’t then I would’ve never been able to experience mob psycho 100
The writing , especially the humor , in One Punch Man and Mob is brilliant and the art work is unique , love both of those series and can hardly wait for those to come back in the form of anime .
ONE's artstyle may not be perfect, but man, he can tell a phenomenal story. What's nice is that his artstyle really fits with the humor, to the point where Murata would throw in ONE's artstyle every now and then to exploit said humor. Mob Psycho 100 and One-Punch Man are fantastic stories.
agreed! He has really improved as well, and it does go hand in hand with the way he tells his stories
ONE is an inspiration for the manga industry and damm I love his energy and series
One has above average drawing. Look at mob psycho manga panels, he is improving rapidly
yes, so nice to see!
One of the most notables writers of this century hands down and one of the best illustrator of this century no doubt about it thats how good they are!!!
So interesting!
Thank you! 😊
i love how informative this video is about my favorite manga artist ONE
thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed!! 😄
He’s got so much credit to his name.
Ah I remember when I first saw One punch the first time, there was not much from the re-drawn chapters there, and I've found the OG ones and read them all till the current chapters back then. It was great! This was probably 2013, 2014? I never connected Mob and One Punch together, but looking back yeah, similar style and great stories I should have known^^. For a while I haven't read much manga, got pulled into Wuxia/Xianxia light novels ^^ I should give it a shot again.
Definitely worth getting back into manga, there are a lot of great stories, and I've never gotten into Wuxia or Xianxia, but they seem very interesting!
Awesome video! I was moved to tears hearing how he wrote Mob's character.
J.C took the money and ran away 💀
Sadly 💀
When seeing the title I just KNOW that it will be ONE
His artstyle might be lacking but his storytelling is better than most
Thank goodness for subtitles.
It's a wonderful, inspirational story. the fact that even with hardship, when your skills seem outclassed and life makes things difficult.. perseverance can ultimately pay off. I say "can" because realistically it doesn't always work out as you want.. but give it your all and who knows where you might end up?
great inspiring story, shows that you don't always need formal training to achieve your dreams
One is a goat
Agreed!! 😄
ONE is a force of nature and i personally think that Reigen is the most relatable and badass character ever written, period.
well of course he's the best he grew up in SAITAMA
Already knew this vid was about ONE before clicking. Great vid bro 💪🏽
😂 thank you for checking it out!
This was my favorite series until the latest arc in the manga. Such a shame it's become yet another shonen cliche, it had such a promising satirical approach.
You've yet to see what happens to Garou after this arc
Mob Psycho and OPM are literally my second and third favorite anime series and OPM being my favorite manga. That just shows how good One-s writing is.
his storytelling is next level! 🔥
@@themangoose Facts
Very Great Video, Enjoyed it
thank you for making it
subscribed
thank you so much for watching!
As soon as I read the title I was like, "wait is this about ONE?" I didn't know what he looked like and low and behold it is. Love it man.
haha the legend himself!
For anyone wondering a 3rd season has been announced to be going in production.
We just got confirmation on season 3!
Yesss so excited!
His brilliant character concepts is the key.
agreed, he's brilliant!
What an inspiring story! Thanks so much for sharing
Gotta love the beautiful things that happen when we help each other out♥️♥️🤟
