OMGGGG OYASUMI PUNPUN IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE MANGAS. I've read most of Inio asano works and one day I will HAVE to make a video on it. And thank you so much im really glad you found this as well, cus you clearly have amazing taste and I couldnt relate more to that simply "different" type of work. It just hits different, damn it I was trying not to say hits different 😂
@@AntiKash OMG YESS I recently read Solanin too and that artist is just amazing I want to make manga (or rather comics) like him. You totally should make a video I'm subbed and waiting :DD
Oh no The pressure 🙈 I will 1000% put it on my video list, though I have to figure out how to make good manga videos first since I’ve only done anime so far, but I will definitely make it at some point. And YOU 10000% CAN make manga/comics like that, I saw your art on ur channel and it’s genuinely really good, I’d buy a copy easily!
Yeahhh I know the pressure lol you just make whatever video you want and I’ll just feel special if you ever put out a punpun one ^^ And thanks you I have a silly little webcomic right now and plan on making a beautiful manga one day.
What’s the webcomic name ! Is there anyway to read it because I’m so ready to! And don’t worry that video will 100% come out at some point I’ll need to mentally prepare as well a bit with the extreme darkness of it 😂
If people actually watched Banana Fish, they'd be surprised with that the scenes of characters being "gay" are few. The anime delves into so many dark topics, such as abuse, drugs, and just some very messed up stuff. Anyway, nice video.
SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK !!!! Literally, damn near a single gay scene which was the kiss scene, the anime is literally has so little to do with being gay that the author had to act like they weren’t gay at all at one point to sell it, but obviously we know. Regardless that has absolutely nothing to do with how freaking good the anime is, and more people need to know that!
I don't consider banana fish to be a gay anime like people claim. Since in the anime there was technically not really any boy love except for the villains r*ping people. The Ash and Eiji...no. They hinted at it, but nothing gay ever happened with them. A lot of people say they were in love with each other or whatever, but that's not really confirmed in the anime maybe in the manga only. In the anime they just remain friends.
@@AntiKash The "kiss" scene was not gay...ash was sneaking a note through a pill he had smuggled in his mouth to eiji. It was the only way to sneak it to him
@@GrowingDownUnder It all depends on the viewer's interpretation. To me, I think it's more queerplatonic. I still think Ash and Eiji's relationship is beautiful. They'd be willing to literally die for each other.
@@notationmusical Sure, but I like how in the anime it wasn't actually a gay relationship with eiji and ash. Probably due to censorship but either way the anime takes a lot of the boy love out of it and makes it more of a friendship. Apart from like when the characters get r*ped and stuff that's obviously different It just makes the anime more watchable for people who actually don't want to see that. Which is a lot of people I tell people all the time it's not boy love anime, obviously that's controversial since it was published in boy love magazine in the 80's lol. And some people say in the manga it was gay but censorship worked in it's favour this time. And same with Mo dao zu shi which is a great chinese anime you should watch too the censorship made it more of a bromance than a romance
Banana fish is one of my all time favourite animes but whenever I ask any other anime fans abt it they dont know what it is and it makes me so mad cause i know if the main characters were straight it would probably be more popular wich is kind of ridiculous 😥🙄
Not just kind of, insanely ridiculous!! 🤦♂️ crazy how the sexual preference affects its popularity when it’s so damn good😭 at least we both know that it is, the banana fish fandom is elite!
I love the fact that you titled it “judgment is holding YOU back…” because at the end of the day only those people, whoever’s judging are missing out, you’re trying to do them a favor if anything. Great vid as always!
Literally exactly why I titled it this. I forgot to add emphasis to that in the video but luckily you exist. I Couldn’t care less what others think of me and myself alongside great people like you are the ones benefitting regardless, if someone else is judging us. And Thank you fam appreciate the support 🙏
Aggretsuko is also an Animal based character designs anime with a more cartoonish artstyle that is also amazing and have little to noone watched it. I want more people to watch the show without being too judgemental about the artstyle.
Yesss I need to watch that, it’s been on my list forever but I think it’s something I’ll start soon. I heard it deals a lot with like work life and adult struggles so it’d be nice, could be like my comfort show
That Ib soundtrack hitted some forgotten memories, nice one. To share my story, I was really judgemental with art styles, didn't watch Made in Abyss and Ranking of kings because of the character design, recently (last 3 years) I started to improve on that and how stupid I feel for missing these masterpieces for something so silly.
Yesss ofc my guy Rea notices the IB soundtrack, I was literally hoping somebody noticed it 😂 and yessss exactly what u said, even I myself used to be way too judgmental and then I realized screw it what kind of logic is that, anime literally teaches us time and time again how to not judge a book by it’s cover. But the issue isn’t being judgmental it’s staying judgmental and luckily neither of us have 🙏
I came here after watching 4 eps of banana fish and searching if it gets the credit it deserves for the gem it is. But finding OddTaxi here! Legendary bro. Great minds think alike! :>
I'm so glad that I found this video!!! It's been so long since I found someone talking about OddTaxi after its original airing (and small hype afterwards). I loved OddTaxi so much and completely forgot about it until now. Great video :)
ODDTAXI IS A MASTERPIECE!!! Thank you bro for bringing light to it again, anime fans are so selective that they forget where anime came from, we’re all a bunch of nerds like you said 😂 equally nerds
Of course fam its amazing and I don't blame people for being thrown off from first look, but anime time and time again teaches us that there is so much more than just the looks
this will sound weird but thank you very much for posting this to the Odd Taxi subreddit, otherwise I would've missed out on - someone who loves and talks about Odd Taxi today - a new anime to watch (didn't know anything about Banana Fish but that premise has me interested) - someone who's engaging to listen to and makes good points
Ayy of course, it’s hard to get TH-cam to push my content to the right viewers so I take it upon myself to post on the subreddit. Glad it brings amazing people like u to the video, hope u stick around 🙏
Odd Taxi is such a GEM!! My best friend is one the people you're talking about I practically forced sat him down to watch and it FLIPPED his entire world
EXACTLY!!! I literally did the same exact thing yesterday😂 my friend was hating on it so much but I showed it to him and the ending, and he was BAFFLED, like u said completely flipped his world and I’m sure he won’t be able to look at anime the same again 😂
I am so happy to find another enjoyer of Odd Taxi! I rememer watching the series in 2021 just for pure curiosity when I was living a really bad time in my life, and I loved the first chapter. Since then I waited for every single chapter until it was finished! and I remember clearly the day I watched the last chapter, I was almost finishing my thesis pre-postulation with little energy left, then the past and truth of the protagonist was revealed, it broke me, I started sobbing non stop the entire day after that, re watching the whole chapter again and again. the ost is soooo good too! I really love odokawa ! I also was soooo happy when it was announced that it won best anime in 2021. thank you for making this video!
I also loved it so much too, and found it at the perfect time, i could not resonate in your words any more. It hit and I was invested even prior to the end reveal but that end reveal just capped it off to be one of my favorites of all time. And then like you said the ost just straight up *chefs kiss* loved it. Thank you for your amazing comment 🙏

@@AntiKash The list is mainly just stylistic anime, like those anime I feel that did what odd taxi did with it's art style and went a unique direction with it.
@@AntiKash I would be okay with it ending on season 1. More than okay actually. Everything ended so perfectly and conclusively. But I'm willing to see the story progress.
@@Sunaru6914 honestly same I’m just a feen for the show lolll but yes honestly the first season ended really good and I wouldn’t be mad if they kept it there, it’s better than forcing production as well as we’ve seen that go wrong a ton 😂
