The fun thing about being a brazillian reading this manga is that, whenever you see a politician getting a visit from akumetsu i don't even care about the context, i just know they deseved it.
KARALHO BRASIL MENCIONADO PORRA ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽ O CARALHOS É UM GOVERNO NÃO CORRUPTO????!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔊🔊🔊🔊🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣
Same thing while being russian or iranian
Same thing with being Portuguese
Well aint that most politicians though ? Most of those mfs roll in corruption.
@@eriksigalraven8340No.
…are there really people who don’t think Light has a God complex? He verbatim says “I’m the one who’ll become the god of a new world that everyone desires” Have we become this illiterate as a society? 😂

Yes we have. Honestly just don't respect the opinions of anyone who's birth year starts with a 2 and about 50 to 70% of the ones who's year does not.
@@TKVirusman weirdo
The old masked man
i read this shit back in 2018, it's about time someone gave it the attention that it deserves
Masked man has been talking about it pretty consistently for a couple years but yeah it needs way more hype
It's literally his inspiration for his name
Wait for me to get rich AF, I'll do it 😂
AkuMetsu 悪滅 = Evil Annihilation (Or annihilation of evil)
Coincidentally, Hakumen's (Blaz Blue) ultimate attack has the same name.
BLAZBLUE MENTIONED 🔥🟦

BlazBlue mentioned, you get my like, have good day my friend

We diss CGI anime but if Studio Orange got a hold of this it would be a visual masterclass
Agreed , they really respect animation so it would kick ass
It's funny that studio orange is always the exception. They could touch anything ever and make it good
@@puperman4208 That's because they are a CGI animation studio who specialize in the field, every other studio use CGI due to Time Constraints.
@@Pumpkin7269 Yeah CGI is great, both 3D and 2D can be used poorly, greatest example of bad CGI being Berserk and the greatest example of bad 2D animation I can think of being Naruto
I like cgi anime 😭
“Gotta get Back

Love the samurai jack reference
Ngl, I could see Netflix deciding to hire a Western Studio to make an Akumetsu anime, but honestly, i think that's the only way I could see it being made into an anime
And we all know Netflix would inject their own horrible politics into it, destroying the message.
Would prolly go from selfsacrificial corruption destroyer to genderswapped girlboss patriarchy smasher
Lol no
@@enriquejoseantequerasanche6180you mean not being racist ?
@@enriquejoseantequerasanche6180 like what happened in the BOYS, which was originally anti cia anti fbi and federal government and corporations, turned into some progressive agenda lmao.
Shou driving a Countach put him in goated territory imo
Akumetsu kind of reminds me of a little known Marvel character called Cardiac who also unalives white collar criminals. I guess that's why Marvel hardly ever uses him. 🤔🤔
poc cardio-surgeon with a reactor artifical heart and vibranium skin, usually a Spidey irregular, first drawn by Erik Larsen.
Who's to say a studio in another country can't adapt it?
The costs to do so are incredibly high and it is not guaranteed to be a hit too, so best case scenario a minor studio could animate enough of the story to act as an inspiration to read the source material. The danger of getting legal suits placed on your studio for defamation etc deincentivize this investment though... rather pray that it stays without adaptation as it'll no question get turned down in its defining aspects aswell as/or pushed in current-socio-political directions it never had anything to do with and thereby ruined.

Akumetsu really is a troll and is such a charismatic dude and is a savage againsr corrupt higher ups. Such a fun read ong.
Has it ever got an English release?
BTW, the last good comic I read was King of Spies ( 4 part series written by Mark Millar). A James Bond type agent finds out he has a year to live and he decides to take out corrupt presidents, billionaires, a religious leader and various super high up corrupt leaders who cause wars/ global suffering. Great art and very bloody.
there's a movie with this concept named "Jawan". Where the vigilante main guy not only punishes the corrupt politicians but also changes the systems which r corrupted.
watched it in theatres it was shit
@@Sameer_bhaskar might not be the best but definitely isn't shit. But I guess it's subjective. But yeah it became goofy in serious times which I didn't quite like.
It was goofy😂@@BLED555
It reeked of feminism & honestly it was pretty cringe
Could've used Nobody as as inspiration but naaaaaah
Its a shitty remake combining atleast 3 south indian movies and straight up copying mersal and making it worse.
So it's a modern re-imagining of the count of monte christo.
That’s what I thought of as well. Pretty cool concept
Its from 2002 and not entirely, a modern re-imagining of count of monte christo is Gankutsuou
I wouldn't put it this way, they're similar but not for this one is the re-imagination of the other.
Montecristo is a (the) revenge story, akumetsu surely HAS revenge in it but it is more a "wipe the evil" story.
They both take the place of the Providence though
thats literally monte chirsto Gankutsuou lmao sci fi reimagining
Guys guys guys. He's just Thanos with no glove
I think it’s possible that the Studio that animated Pluto might animate since they weren’t afraid to criticize the Iraq war.
Just got the mask tattoo'd on my arm a few weeks ago. My favorite manga by a mile
22 seconds ago is crazy. But wait wasn't ur previous mask inspired from this manga?
Yes
You're the reason I read this manga and I don't regret it, it's awesome! I watched your video on it back then not knowing who you are, but I loved it, decided to read the manga myself and watch your videos because of it. I should probably reread it now that you made another video on it AND because I forgot quite a bit of the story (besides main plot points and such).
man if we tried this shit in the USA we'd probably dead before chapter 2 lol
he die
We would end up with a lot of dead Tiny Hats
Us will takedown itself
Lol the 2nd page would be "but the fbi heard his entire plan through his phone, he was abducted on his way to class, and never seem again."
The end
But than again there were guys who could hack them (even to the nuclear bomb system according to a trusted news channel in Germany)
This was the first manga I ever read, pretty sure it was your recommendation in an old video along with holyland and I still love both of them.
Akumetsu is the hero we all need.
100% going to read that, thank you for sharing it. i never would have heard about it otherwise
The idea of commiting evil to get rid of evil reminds me of a group in a ttrpg, who aknowledge that they stain themselves, by their acts of evil, but if they do it to stop greater evil, they will reduce both the harm to the victims and prevent the evil-doer from furher staining themselves.
Anti-heroes are like that. That's pretty much the Punisher right there.
Code: Breaker does this also. If I remember correctly (since I read this one super waaay back like early 2009-ish), each of them follows their own version of "Code of Hammurabi". I'll use the protagonist as example, Rei Ogami's version of it is "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and evil for evil.".
We appreciate your insights on this matter.
So, i went and actually read all of Akumetsu after hearing the premise of it, and i gotta say, it bangs. Still reads like a manifesto, but a really banger manifesto.
I like this one a lot. Despite this not really being a central point until the very last arc, I was invested into Hazama and his girl's relationship and it ended in a very sad way, that still keeps me wondering if that pod was a standalone, or she's practically a 4th now
him and yuuichi from tomodachi game have my fav facial expressions 😭🙏🏽
I have been a fan of this since it came out and was there day by day as it released.
I was literally just thinking about it yesterday.
Thank you for making this video
I had seen it listed before, but this breakdown sold me on trying it out. Thanks!
I've come to know about akumetsu in a past video of yours, red it and just loved it.
I just want to say thank you for this wonderful discovery
Goat finnally upload
W video
never heard of this manga before. to ma list to read
thanks
Such a good, fun manga, definitely recommended read. Deserves an anime for sure, but for obvious reasons will never get one ESPECIALLY after what happened to Shinzo Abe.
Its for the best this series never gets a popular anime adaptation. The video essays from the "media literate" crowd would be unbearable for this.
Hey, wanted you to know how much I appreciate your videos.
I remember watching your Akumetsu video from 3 years ago and got so intrigued that I started to Read it soon after.
Akumetsu is one of my favorite manga of all time and the Main Character so Special to me.
Without you I never would have experienced this Read. Keep Up your awesome work!
I haven't checked on this channel in a couple years, glad to see its doing well
Damn you brought back my last manga series i bought before i moved to the US in 2007. What a throwback. Zipang and this manga were my fave.
Oh my lord, I read this when I was younger and I was trying to find it again and failed to do so.
You got me into this manga years ago
Man good timing, I just started reading Akumestu after watching Scamboli's Manga recommendation video.
Great video! Had no idea they were based on real people, this Mangaka is WILD dude. O_O
I remember this series! Man i wish it would get more love
Same
Comedic troll with a gun, plans against government officials... Happy Chaos??
Not enough interestingly bullshit OP powers.
it read it a while back on your recommendation, really good series, i think it tapers off in the end somewhat, but the bulk of it is very satisfying. I wish this was a genre. 'Retribution'. I like seeing evil punished with little to no mercy lol.
It is actually a genre. In Japanese it's called "ざまぁ" (Zamaa), an abbreviation from "様を見ろ" what means "Serves you right". It is a pretty pupular tag on, for example, shousetsuka ni narou.
@Miraihi hmm ill do some research and see if there are any that looks good. Thanks
I love this series, and thank you for making this video 😁.
This has been one of my fave mangas for years :) reread this every year
Bro glad I stayed to watch this video, def gonna read it now.
I cannot remember how long ago it was that i read this.
Damn you bring back some memories. Loved reading this manga when I was younger.
I read this manga after you recommended it a few years ago and it was a wild ride
You my dude are doing the lords work. I been an Akumetsu fan since 2014 and have always thought if it was ever made into an anime some people might learn some shit. Still my fav manga to this day and I share this with everyone every time someone askes for a recommendations.
Shou is gonna show em
It is also my favorite. Thanks for the suggestion all those years ago.
Finally!!! Someone talks about Akumatsu. I read this Manga back in 2018. And I was genuinely sad that no one was talking about this series. You bring up a good point about how this Hidden Gem of a manga basically went into obscurity while there's so many by the numbers isekai, fantasy, and shonen anime being shoveled out by anime studios these days.
Feels like the original comic of the Mask.
I read this the first time you made a video about it and it's absolutely worth the read
Great video. I think an adaptation of that is only viable IMHO if not just the violence is toned down but if the corrupt government/business/criminal group does not resemble real-people and/or done in a very cartoonish way (Mr. Robot comes to mind). Also, feels like this manga feels part of the overall extreme stuff coming out of Japan at that (Battle Royale & Ichi the Killer for example) even if the discontent and disillusionment with the way democracy works in Japan (or in other places, just can pick one country) continues but has increased. They would rather do something more akin to Eden of the East or using something else as base (like Shin Gojira did)
looks cool! definitely will read
It feels really weird being reminded of this because I once stumbled upon it by sheer chance and got quite absorbed by it during the edge teenager phase of my life. It was already completed by then and while I do think it goes a little too weird near the end of it, overall I still really like it.
I always felt like the writer was venting through the series.
As you said, the series is revenge porn and I felt the writer communicated several times that what akumetsu was doing isn't good and sometimes even had flawed logic for doing it. Like the first kill where he accuses the guy of killing 30 people because one guy killed himself over an amount of money and everyone acknowledges that it doesn't make sense. The only reason the kill felt good to read was because of how they were treating the girls. Strip them out of the scene and akumetsu looks a lot less justified in his actions.
The chemistry teacher analogy, brings back memories 😂
got it all at Lucca Comics some years ago. I was so happy that it was printed in my country!
Story so interesting I had to stop mid video and go read the manga before coming back. I can confirm this truly is amazing
FINALLY someone is talking about this manga
Damn Akumetsu is epic. Especially the Systema scene hits hard. Emotional as well.
I read this years ago I think I was still in high school and it still holds up to this day. One day I hope to spread the knowledge of Akumetsu and other older anime content someday. It challenged you to think and a pod light novel to read is Reverend Insanity if you understand the undertones.
Happy seeing this old gem getting some love! Still is one of my favourite manga of all time
Akumetsu rocks! The ending was a bit depressing though.
Second I saw that thumbnail I recalled this entire story only read it once when it was being serialized and scanlated but damn was it a trip.
one of the first I've ever read and definitely one of ny favorite and one of the very few I'd accept seen adapted to live action
Damn someone made a manga of what is sitting my mind for the very long time.
In short, I completely understand the anger that author of this manga feels towards politicians
Bro you are an anti-vaxxer and flat earth believer might want to first educate yourself I am unsure how someone that does not believe in science will know anything about fixing society
@@GwainSagaFanChannel he didn't mention either of those things lol. also thats a very long run on sentence
@@water6305 Although he doesn’t implied such conspiracies within his comment, what is clearly visible on his TH-cam profile gives off the impression of a conspiracist who just learned that Facebook isn’t the only social media platform out there. Out of his two total shorts, short one centers around the “chemtrails” created by planes and short two is centered around dying birds (may be related to that camera hoax about birds). Out of his seven total videos, three center around how the Earth is “flat”, three center around anti-vax propaganda, and one is a reupload of a fictional dystopian short film he thinks reflects his actual government. Are you really sure you want to defend a grown adult, who believes that every single piece of media they consume is actually occurring in real life and is something actively being suppressed by the government? This man is gonna start praying for Gojo like Winston Cave praying for Trump to come save him three years ago.
@@water6305He clicked his channel
Author is also a deeply sick individual if you read his other "works"
If i have to say , naoki urasawa and others mangaka did a great work on decoding Matrix and many stuff
wow i want this animated
this shit went hard
Wait until anime studios hear about the literal manhwa called Terror Man
I read this years ago. We definitely need some adaptation.
Akumetsu is a damn masterpiece. It's cathartic in the best way, while having a good story, art, and characters. I binged it over the course of a weekend and i loved nearly every second of it.
This somewhat reminds me of the Mark Millar series ‘Nemesis’.
I heard of this before but damn, didn’t know they were meant to be real
Coolest terrorists ngl
This is by far the best vigilante manga I've ever read. I remember stumbling into this over a decade ago while I was looking for stuff to read after a golgo13 marathon. I found Dendrobytes, another gem, and... THIS.
Such a underrated manga...We could all use more Akumetsu in our life.
i should had stopped before the spoilers JAJAJA damn, i really wanna read it now
I’d be hilarious if a Korean aeni studio picked this up. I’d love to watch it
Biggest issue is that Mappa would definitely be the type of studio to pick this up, unfortunately it's one of the most inhumane studios so I can't say I'm looking forward to whatever masterpiece they choose to animate
Always loved Akumetsu, glad you're covering again!
Will you do a video on Western Comics? I recall you saying you would make a video on Kingdom Come Superman and I'd like to see your take
Nice choice in that FFXI battle music.
6:43 you can change the faces of the characters and the story still works
I've always been amazed that the amazing team that made this somehow also made the godawful Wolf Guy series.
Day 4 of asking for an updated top 100 anime/manga list
one of my character is Sergeant Sharia. a counterpart of Captain America.
upholding the sharia law in the US soil in Punisher/Judge Dredd style.
Akumetsu was amazing, and so appropriate for today's political climate.
This feels like if Garth Ennis wrote a manga and I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for the amazing recc!
Not enough whining about how ww2 soldiers are ackshual heroes for a Garth Ennis piece
Wow, I never even thought someone would review this manga. I read Akumetsu waay back when I was in highschool and I am entering my 30s. It was for me, one of the most unforgettable read that I have ever done.
Thanks for bringing that out for us, this manga got a new fan.
The video was fire
I am glad I am not the only one to remember Akumetsu
I read this for the 1st time 15 years ago. For years Akumetsu mask was for me a symbol on how good and thought provoking a manga could be. I’m glad to find other people love this as much as I do
I read and finished this about a month ago. My friend recommended it to me, and I recommended it to my cousin. There are now 3 more Akumetsu fans in this world. Let's make some more fans 👍
I spent the whole night reading all the chapters in one sitting thus missing school the next day. It was year 2009. I've re-read it a couple more times during all these years. One of the best manga ever.
