The History of Weekly Shonen Jump: 1976 - 1977

[@SlapstickGenius23]

Kochikame’s 90s anime show is also popular in both India and Spain of all countries. People are still having fond memories of that thing.

[@watchforever1724]

The 1980’s is gonna be interesting cause we know that era is special and popular cause stuff like fist of the North Star and dr slump is gonna be mentioned

[@TrentinArt]

100% A lot more well known manga ... and also a lot more manga I need to read ahaha!

[@keybladeapologist.1131]

the addition of showing some panels from key manga is really cool, Iove seeing the art of this time.

[@TrentinArt]

Thank you, i've been trying harder to look for and incorporate panels now, it's gotten easier overtime as the throughout the years the manga become more accessible!

[@dnaphion]

HE'S BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!! YEEEEEES!! (Ok, now I'll go watch the video)

[@TrentinArt]

I am indeed BACKKKKK!!!

[@PKFLASH123]

You are doing gods work man ive been interested in jumps history since 2017 im so happy you are doing this thank you this is probably my fav series on youtube now

[@TrentinArt]

Aww tysm kinda in the same boat as you haha, very glad you enjoy these! The 1988 video should be out soon too!

[@irasac1]

I live in Brazil and i have heard of Ring ni Kakero before although only online. I was born in 2001 though so maybe older people rememberer it. I never saw it in any libraries that have manga so i don't know though. I found a 2004 blogpost talking about it's influence in saint seiya, i would think it's popularity is a side effect of saint seiya's since the SS anime was immensely popular over here, it even held the TV ratings record for at least a decade and even when i was a kid they still broadcasted it in TV(probably until 2010).

[@TrentinArt]

Ohhh really interesting! It'd make sense if it being known was a bi-product after Saint Seiyas popularity since it was a prior big series by kurumada and I think his second most known! Cool to hear about its legacy from other countries though!

[@CapybaraEnjoyer95]

The Silent Hill OST while the tanuki manga is on the screen is one of the best things I've seen on yt in awhile

[@TrentinArt]

Haha yeah while editing I realized how oddly comical and weird it was (since its just before a spooky section where i wanted to use SH music)! I'm glad you enjoyed!

[@SamTheGumMan117]

One of the absolute legends in SJ starts here baby and truly give props to the author for lasting that long 👏

[@TrentinArt]

Absolutley!! 1900+ chapters is insanity!

[@TemplarTrejore]

Love every time you drop one of these. I get to learn about and explore manga I've never heard of. Great video as always.

[@TrentinArt]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed learning about some old Jump manga!

[@watchforever1724]

I remember watching the first 21 chapters of kochikame online sad most of the other chapters are hard to find for an American audience sadly 9:35

[@TrentinArt]

It's a shame there aren't more, but it's worth checking on mangadex if you haven't already for any you might have missed!

[@watchforever1724]

@@TrentinArt2 months I picked the entire series

[@watchforever1724]

@onizukaeikichi141 yep the entire series

[@KOTEBANAROT]

Ive certainly seen that eyebrow cop a lot, never knew the source. Sounds really charming, and that art is rather beautiful, i dont normally expect it from gag manga... ill look it up, even though i have never seen an actually funny manga comedy. Might be that reliance on bokke-tsukkomi routine and loud = funny that ruins my enjoyment

[@TrentinArt]

Ohh Ryotsu is hugeee, Comedy manga can be hit or miss but i love it. I did a big 1 hour collab about the topic featuring a bunch of other people if your interested

[@samtepal3892]

There might be a typo in thumbnail, but outside of that, great video.

[@TrentinArt]

Thank you!!! Also thank you for mentioning the thumbnail I'm not sure I would have noticed otherwise haha

[@shinichi-nw4wg]

Kochikame, indeed, was publised by Planeta in Spain. The edition was based on a special edition that compiled what the author said it was his best period (his best chapters). Basically 10 volumes that compiled 2 japanese tankoubon in 1, in other words, japanese volumes from 81 to 100 in just 10 volumes. They are funny, in Spain the anime was popular at the beginning of the century (it was aired on all autonomic channel, there are likely 5 dubs of Kochikame just in Spain) but it's a shame that there aren't any chapters from the beginning.

[@TrentinArt]

Ohhh thanks for the insight, definitely not the case in the UK, I love hearing about how different Jump series are perceived in different countries!

[@Gabe_read_manga]

Great video, man 👍 Can't wait for the next video

[@TrentinArt]

Thank you!! Next one should be a doozy!

[@FuriousKAMEX]

been watching all the parts of this series and gotta say it's been a joy. looking forward to the upcoming videos, great stuff man.

[@TrentinArt]

Thank you so much! The next part is fully scripted and I did record it once but I had some audio issues sadly. I'd like it to be my next video though so stay tuned!

[@FuriousKAMEX]

@@TrentinArt awesome! been going through the rest of your videos, underrated channel for sure.

[@TrentinArt]

Tysm!! glad you think so!

[@egnichiekevin9647]

17:02 Of course and many's mangaka pick up often some few fighting games charaters.

[@blazingboifire]

Another great video leep up the good work

[@TrentinArt]

Thank you!!! Will keep it up!

[@BioPhoenixReviews]

blue city sounds really cool id like to check that one out. and i do find it interesting how a very weird one like Ankoku Shinwa got a game made out of it. come on people give us some more lesser known manga/anime game releases lol kockikame is one id like to see random episodes/chapters just for how huge and important it is plus it sounds funny just like Lupin

[@TrentinArt]

Yeah Blue city as a serious scifi manga seems pretty cool but sadly its untranslated. The Legend of Giants by the same author is though and tackles some similar ideas! Kochikame and Lupin is a great comparison i think! Both are character comedies with lots of recurring gags/characters and focus on their roles a lot, policeman/thief! A lot of the chapters you can find translated are from random points throughout it's history so definitely try to track them down if you can!

[@jaybeans981]

I think the thumbnail is off? It says 1976-1976

[@TrentinArt]

Ahhhhh I changed it to re align some of the text and I'm not sure how I didn't notice!! Thank you for pointing it out!!

[@kevinpillar6934]

I wonder what's shonen jumped did as a magazine that made it so much more popular than all the other magazines

[@TrentinArt]

I think just a large number of popular manga, I can't point to you exactly when it overtook it's rivals but the 80s and 90s when it had manga like Dragonball, Slam Dunk, Fist of the North Star etc where a huge time for the magazine and it just kept getting popular until it's peak in like 1996? i think, and because of all those and one piece later down the line it's retained the most popular!

[@seandarbe2521]

Sasume Pirates sounds like action Comedy Parody with satirical and political humor alongside puns and physical humor, is that correct?

[@TrentinArt]

It's been a while but it sounded like it had a bit of everything, lots of baseball jokes, current stuff, slapstick, randomness ... I'd imagine like Stop Hibari

[@pkbasis]

the homo jump...amazing

[@TrentinArt]

Ikr! Really funny and unexpected while reading!

[@warrenbradford2597]

Great history lessons! Thank you for educating us about Shonen Jump's past!
