Vintage Anime & Manga #1 | The Year 24 Group and the Female Revolution of Shoujo Manga

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Hello hello! I hope you are all well! :) Ever since finding Moto Hagio's work, I have become extremely interested in this era of shoujo manga, so I'm very much looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Either way as always, CC will be coming in a hot minute after KZbin has done it's automatic ones :) I'm incredibly busy atm, so I have been having to make this videos on the fly, but I'm sure everything will be running again as usual in a couple of week (and so the CC will be there in advance as well). As usual please enjoy this haiku: i could eat it! this snow that falls so softly, so softly - Issa

Yoweeee!

[@DoraKouknakou]

I really love retro shojo manga, it’s one of my favorite hobbies. My favorites are Ryoko Ikeda’s The Rose Of Versailles, Suzue Miuchi’s Glass Mask and Yumiko Igarashi’s Candy Candy. I love that flowery, yet melancholic aesthetic, with many symbolisms and deep meanings. Shojo mangakas of that time and their stories are criminally underrated and they certainly deserve more recognition.

[@SummerRockets]

These were my mom's favorites as well. I like reading Seinen but I started reading The Rose of Versailles and wow! Love the way Shojo manga evokes emotion.

[@AlexLizard]

The rose of versailles is an absolute masterpiece!

[@carolinecdbc3883]

I’m french and I did my master’s degree’s thesis on this subject, so your video popped in my feed it’s so nice 👍 I’m happy to have another person in the world who searched recently about this part of history, it’s so impressive

[@carolinecdbc3883]

I discovered them thanks to “Oni-sama e...” by Riyoko Ikeda, and “Tomas no Shinzo” by Moto Hagio who is my favourite, unfortunately in France we have a few translations of her works :( I would love to have mor from Fantagraphics. Moto Hagio is incredible she deserves so much recognition in Western countries

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Wow that's so awesome!! And yeah I totally agree, Hagio totally deserves more recognition! I was looking up different translations of her work and except for in Italy, only a few of her works have been translated. Lil' Leo btw is going to be published in English in March though which is really exciting! :D

Yeah totally agree, and it has so much good to offer! Thanks so much for watching -- glad to hear you loved the video!! :D

[@Pedro-ic3rt]

I love your manner of speaking. It's so soothing and nice to the ears. Also, I really liked the information you brought it in this video. I don't know if I've ever watched a shojo anime or read a manga of said kind. But now you really encouraged me to give it a shot. ❤

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Thank you so much, that's so lovely to hear! I'm really glad that the video inspired you to give shoujo a chance -- I hope you enjoy it!! :D

[@moodreaderwoes]

keiko takemiya is one of my favorite mangaka, i completely lost it when kaze to ki no uta got published in spain!!! i read it years ago through an unfinished fan translation and being able to finally experience it in its entirety brought me so much joy despite how tragic of a story it is. i had no idea rose of versailles was licensed in english though, i've been wanting to read it for years! i recently bought the first volume of the poe clan though so i'll have to save up a bit first😭 this is probably one of my favorite videos you've made, fantastic content!!

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Ooh that's lovely!! I would love to give Kaze to ki no uta a chance, though I'm picking Rose of Versailles next week, really stoked for that!! :D But yeah the copy is hardback just like the Poe Clan so it's super expensive! 😭 Btw, part 2 of TPC is coming out most likely in 2021, it has been hard for the translator to find enough time to work on it -- it's nice to know it will get finished eventually though :) Thanks so much for watching and I'm so glad to hear how much you enjoyed this video! :D

[@moodreaderwoes]

@@TheArtisanGeek i'd love to hear your thoughts on all of these works as you read them!! just a quick heads up though, kaze deals with csa and child abuse as a central theme so please tread with caution, it can be hard to stomach. thank you so much for letting me know TPC will be continued, i was wondering whether the project was abandoned! can't fault the translator at all, this year has been crazy. i'm so excited for vol2!!!!🤗

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Thanks so much for the heads up, will definitely keep that in mind! :) And yeah, no problem! I stumbled upon the twitter of the translator when doing research and that was her pinned tweet (I guessed a lot of people had been asking) :)

[@Wats06071]

I had no idea The Knight Princess was such a milstone in the history of Anime. I watched this when I was little. It was dubbed (Not English). I still remember little bit of the song. Ah! you brought back some memories :) Excellent video by the way!

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Ah that's so cool you watched that growing up! Would love to give it a go, as it sounds really interesting :) Thanks so much for watching!! :D

[@oscarruorochmolinacansino5907]

As one of my favorite manga authors, Moto Hagio doesn't get enough love. Great informative video. Keep up the good work. :)

[@chadsuke]

Absolutely fascinating! I know of the Year 24 group and have read quite a few of their works, but didn’t know all the history behind it. Thank you for doing this research and sharing it!

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Yeah same here! I went looking for more information a couple of years back. but was surprised to see how not many people had spoken about them on KZbin, despite their importance. Very happy to share the video! :)

[@cherrybepsi]

This is so interesting! I used to be a really big fan of Glass Mask which originally came out in like the 70s, so I've recently gotten a lot more interested in the history of shoujo/older shoujos. Loved the video 💞

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Oh that's super awesome!! I've been meaning to take a look at that one actually! :D Thanks so much for watching!! xx

[@huggiebuggie2]

I ordered Moto Hagio’s Otherworld Barbara last week, and I’m really excited to read it! I’ve been really interested in vintage shoujo manga after finishing Utena

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Oh that's so cool!! I have Hagio's manga at home too -- been meaning to read it this holiday! Hope will both enjoy it :D

[@Lauren-mc7mo]

This video truly felt mind blowing!!! I’m a huge shoujo fan but I never knew any of this! I don’t think I’ve ever given vintage shoujo a chance but you’ve really peaked my interest. Thank you so much for this!!

[@emmanuelsandoval1870]

I highly recommend you read the manga "A Cruel God Reigns" by Moto Hagio. It is easily the best manga I have ever read. I binge read it in a week despite the fact that the subject matter of the manga was so dark and disturbing that reading it became mentally exhausting. I constantly had to put it down and stop reading to walk around for a few minutes before I could pick it up again. By the time I had finished reading the manga, I felt so drained that I had to watch something more lighthearted to make me feel better. Nevertheless, I simply could not stop thinking about this manga for a week after I had read it. If you suffer from mental illness or trauma, I do not recommend you read this manga. To read this manga, please be sure you are in a healthy enough mental state.

[@yuraka]

What an amazing analysis on my favorite era of Manga. I grew up intensely reading these artists from 6 to 18 years old. It was joy packed moment to open monthly/weekly shojo manga magazines. When I reflect the time, it's incredible to see many of them became legends. Thank you for your effort.

[@yes-lc1vz]

I remember studying them as a collective literature course.. used to be one of my favorites in my schol journey

[@bstarjam466]

That was masterful! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. I knew all of the information but I came to support and see it archived by your narration. This is important as a black male shoujo artist myself. All of the old greats you mentioned heavily influence my work. You did so great detailing the history.

[@ria9924]

You are so well-spoken. I can see you writing a book on these subjects. I love learning about popular culture :)

[@luca.desu.2590]

Such an interesting, informative, and well-researched video! So much good history in one place! I think you might enjoy the morning drama that NHK did maybe almost 10 years ago, called ゲゲゲの女房about the wife of Mizuki Shigeru, author of ゲゲゲの鬼太郎, one of the earliest horror manga. It also shows a little of the early industry dynamics with shojo manga you discussed.

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment!! That's super interesting, thank you so much! Will definitely have to take a peak at that. One of Shigeru's manga called Tono Monogatari is getting published in English next year, which I'm really interested in, so I have been looking into him as a mangaka recently! :)

[@luca.desu.2590]

@@TheArtisanGeek that's exciting! I've been meaning to try gegege because of its role in horror manga, and because it was a popular anime that my dad used to watch. Tono sounds really interesting and maybe informative culturally too!

No one here talking about Masako Watanabe, who wrote the horror manga Saint Rosalind, or Hideko Mizuno, who influenced Moto Hagio :(

She mentioned Mizuno at the end

[@TheArtisanGeek]

As Alma said I mentioned both in the video, but I think you meant in the comment section right? I think with some of the mangaka it's hard to get a hold of their work, both in English and Japan, which is really unfortunately -- so I guess that's why not many people might have spoken about them.

[@momoirorabbit5137]

​@@TheArtisanGeek Someone began scanlating Saint Rosalind and it's gotten some comments so I'm hoping that will encourage publishers to pick it up (manga publishers here won't pick up series unless they're popular and that come from scanlations I've even suggested Hoshi No Tategoto which has no scanlation, multiple times and they didn't get it, because they say, it's too old, but then they get the latest manga which has a scanlation that updates frequently and the manga still manages to sell well) I've also suggested Fire! by Hideko Mizuno to Seven Seas only for them to get the atrocious Lupin the third manga by Monkey Punch. Manga publishers don't see classic manga as worthy unless it has an anime or the manga is made by men.

[@TheArtisanGeek]

Before I go on my damned anti-piracy stance?
