Rumiko Takahashi
I believe that friends who like anime are not unfamiliar with the name of Rumiko Takahashi, and her highly recognizable painting style and the orchid finger that appears from time to time in the characters in her works have left a deep impression. As a female shōnen manga writer, Rumiko Takahashi tells the story of a juvenile manga with a girl's manga style with her delicate emotions unique to women. Sometimes nonsensical spoofing, sometimes swinging back to the intestines, bringing everyone countless touches. So today, I recommend three classic works of Rumiko Takahashi for everyone, and I hope you can like them.
1. Fuxing Boy
Fuxing Kid (うる星やつら) is Rumiko Takahashi's first feature-length serial and one of her popular masterpieces. Fukusei Kid was serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday, a shōjo manga magazine in kokukan, from No. 39 to No. 8, 1987, and was initially serialized intermittently, but was only officially serialized after graduating from Takahashi University and devoting himself to manga creation, beginning a career as Rumiko Takahashi's Weekly Shonen Sunday, which was animated in 1981.
The story of "Lucky Star Boy" mainly revolves around the alien girl Ram and the high school student Zhu Xingdang. Ram is a distant ghost star princess who accompanies her father on a journey to conquer Earth, but is defeated by the stars in a hide-and-seek duel that determines the fate of Earth. Subsequently, the two sides staged one after another hilarious love and laughter stories. Each time it's a small story with an independent plot, basically crazy funny content. "Fuxing Kid" can be said to have set a precedent for Japanese hilarious manga, and subsequent works have no one to surpass, which shows the depth of its influence on the Japanese manga industry.
In this work, in addition to the funny elements, the most attractive thing is the love between Ram and Adam, and Takahashi's early work maintains a good balance between funny and pure love. It was also from this work that Takahashi's painting style began to "evolve".
2. Messy horse 1/2
"Chaotic Horse 1/2" (らんま1/2), or translated as Seven Laughing Fists. It is one of Rumiko Takahashi's manga masterpieces. Serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday, from No. 36 in 1987 to No. 12, 1996, It is another work by Rumiko Takahashi, following the popular works "Fukusei Kid" and "A Moment Together" from 1978 onwards. It is the most popular manga in the elementary school hall, and has sold about 50 million single-line manga in Japan, making it the best-selling one of Rumiko Takahashi's works and was animated in 1989.
The protagonist, Early Otome Chaoma, is a teenager practicing martial arts who comes to The Village of Mantra Springs (a fictional location) in Qinghai Province, China to practice, and accidentally falls into the "Female Drowning Spring" (also known as the Niang Drowning Spring), so that when she encounters cold water, she will become a girl, and when she encounters hot water, she will return to a boy. And his father, friends, etc. will also transform into pandas, little black pigs, cats, ducks, and so on because they once fell into different springs. This ability to transform has caused them a lot of trouble and made a lot of jokes. In the laughter, the story shows the various struggles of the male protagonist in order to achieve a higher level of martial arts and remove the trouble of transformation, and also shows the superficial struggle between young boys and girls, but in fact, the implicit innocence of feelings. is a fighting romantic comedy comic.
In the work, Rumiko Takahashi depicts a wonderful utopian world, in which the depiction of China may seem to us Chinese, and the work still continues the line of funny and love, and also continues the glory of Rumiko Takahashi.
3. InuYasha Fork
InuYasha is a manga series by Rumiko Takahashi in Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine from 1996 to 2008. At the end of "Crazy Horse 1/2", the serialization of "InuYasha" became a new page in Takahashi's manga creation career. Takahashi breaks the traditional model with her unique ideas, turns decay into magic, and dedicates readers a fresh, delicate, touching and fantastic Warring States fairy tale.
The heroine, Nichiren, is an ordinary girl who lives in a shrine. On her 15th birthday, she was dragged into the dry well of the shrine by the yokai 100-footed demon woman, and traveled to the Sengoku period of Japan 500 years ago, where she met the sealed half-demon Inuyasha. Coming to the Warring States period, Ah Li was mistaken for the deceased witch Kirito, but because of her spiritual power, appearance, and the jade of the four souls in her body, it was considered to be the reincarnation of Kirito. Ah Li awakened Inuyasha and accidentally smashed the Jade of The Four Souls with an arrow and scattered it everywhere. In order to collect the Fragments of the Jade of the Four Souls, Inuyasha and Ah Li embark on a journey to collect the Jade of the Four Souls together with the little demon Fox Seven Treasures, the mage Maitreya, and the exorcist Coral. Moreover, everyone is aiming to defeat the yokai who also collects the Jade of the Four Souls, Nairobi. The scenes of the group of demons and samurai fighting in the works are extraordinary, and the subtle psychological depictions and Takahashi-style humor are also played at a high level. This is a work that embodies Takahashi's twenty-three years of manga skills.
"InuYasha" as Takahashi Rumiko's most widely known work in China, after many years of completion, still maintains a high popularity, some domestic film and television dramas have a deep reference to it, although the triangular relationship of this bridge section can already be called dog blood, but under the arrangement of the author with profound skills, it does not make people feel disgusted, but makes people feel how beautiful it is to leave an unforgettable love. "InuYasha" has left an indelible mark of youth on us who were once teenagers.
After inuyasha's end, Rumiko Takahashi began a new series of "Reincarnation of the Realm" (境界のRINNE) Maiden Mammiya Sakura, who became able to see ghosts due to an incident that occurred to her as a child. One day, the incredible encounter that visited her was the six reincarnations. Crossing a realm that no one can cross, when the young girl meets, the gears of fate will begin to turn... Although the theme is a bridge section, it is estimated that it is very suitable for long-form serials. Rumiko Takahashi is still using the brush in her hand to describe love and dreams, telling her own story, continuing her life as a manga artist, and looking forward to the greater surprises that Takahashi Sensei will bring us.
