#I want to be the king of book reports#Thank you for every life in this world - my favorite animal comics Top 10

Animal world man's best friend, more originally is one of the main characters on the earth, who does not like these or healing the soul, or praise the life of the living beings? The animal theme of the manga is a lot, but most of them belong to the niche comics, the early years of the publishers are still happy to introduce a diversity of works, but now, in addition to the individual word of mouth works, basically difficult to introduce, it is really a pity.

Animal-themed comics can be divided into several creative types, namely, daily anthropomorphism, daily record, virtual fantasy, documentary fantasy, the following is a selection of the types of works they like to give you all sorts of grass ~

Daily anthropomorphism refers to the depiction of animals accompanying the daily life of the people, but in order to highlight the animal personality, anthropomorphic design, a large number of animals, the inner drama, distinctive character, and the animal's personality. Inner drama, distinctive character, emotional **** Ming strong, can also be called "human delusion".

The broadcast of the animation was a sensation, and the streets were full of Kiki's peripherals, and it was also the first Japanese animation that I watched happily with my mom. Mischievous American short Xiaoqi was picked up by a family of small children, loving parents with children and cats grow up together, at first in order to avoid the apartment administrator every day fear, and later exchanged for a special apartment can keep pets. The carefree Xiaoqi knows nothing of this, and is immersed in his own simple pleasures every day: what's this one, I want to play with it! That's my favorite clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter! The big cat at the door looks so awesome, I want to play! I haven't explored the jungle over there, I want to play! The kitten's innocence and sweetness of heart is expressed to the fullest extent, and who wouldn't want such a beautiful kitten?

The manga is in full color, and the author's level of both drawing and coloring is not bad, but the manga is far less popular than the anime. The Taiwan version was introduced by Tip, and only 9 books were published, the Jane China version was introduced by Shitu, and 10 books were published, and the Hong Kong version was introduced by Shobunsha, and 12 books were published. I received the Seito edition, the color printing quality is average, but the translation is okay, each book has a lovely book waist, cost-effective. Later turned over the Hong Kong version, slightly better but not particularly high quality, may be this color comics usually will not be particularly high specification printing or it will be more expensive.

Super tear-jerking manga. Bubu Tsubasa has become a representative character of animal manga because of Sentaro, but Shiba Wang is completely different from the relaxed and cute Xiao Xian who is loved by his master, he is a stray dog who lost his mother when he was a child and survived on the edge of the human society, and he has to work hard every day to live a life of strength and strength to face the difficulties in life, and pursues his own small fortune.

The tip of this set of comics is still given to the high specification of 25K, although the paper is only ordinary recycled paper, but this open book has been very powerful. Little Chai Wang, hard to collect and pull the garbage to build a small house, only to enjoy a few nights without the wind and rain, was cleaned up; hungry, can not help but be set up by humans in the full set, almost to be set neck away; spring blossoms, but also by the call of the spring into the crowd of people enjoying the flowers, do not want to ask for a delicious octopus balls hard to perform upright walking, and so on when you get the time to be all I don't have an appetite. But at the same time, there are also help it to wash white granny, there is a rescue was stuck in the water pipe of the stupid dog uncle, there is to take him to the home to eat the memorial buns of the ghost grandpa, there are kindly share its food children, there are for it to climb poles and walk on the wall of the "Killer D". There is also a **** together with the small flowers in trouble, there is a wide sea, there is warm sunshine, so Chai Wang - do not admit defeat!

Bu Pu wing will be the animal's cute and life is not easy perfect blend together, both heartbreaking and healing, even more famous, equally touching "star guardian dog" can not be surpassed, is my heart the best animal manga!

There are a lot of anime in this genre, such as the better known anime Mika Eki Diary (Cat Diary) by Yasunoko Miwa.

Daily record, refers to from the human point of view to observe the daily life of animals living together, like a pervert to record every move of the master, and then brainstorming speculation of the logic of their behavior, similar to the cloud sucking cats, the sense of immersion is very strong, but also can be called "pooper's diary of observation". Some of the works, especially the longer ones, may have two scenarios: when humans are present, it's Type 2, where the animals don't talk, but when there are no humans present, it's Type 1, where the animals can talk to each other in language.

I don't know if Sentaro is the only rabbit manga? But it's also the most well-known pet manga, with 37 volumes! The tip of the iceberg was able to give it the 25K treatment and it should have sold some copies when it all came out, but unfortunately it's almost impossible to find them all nowadays. This manga owes its fame to Shinkansen magazine, which brought this cute and mischievous rabbit and his friends to us. Although there are no anthropomorphisms in this manga, the character and habits of Sentaro are depicted in a great deal of detail, as if you have a rabbit yourself, who is mischievous and unsettling every day, but at some point is so cute and heartwarming that it makes you feel very warm and fuzzy. And that is, the author's style of painting is really too suitable for talking about animals and this kind of daily small warm ah!

Because the number of this piece is too large, it is difficult to buy a complete set, and the later stories are not enough new ideas, so I chose to collect a set of four anthology, including the most important and representative of some of the most important stories in the Sentaro, and it is almost enough.

Renko Sasaki's neurotic style creates this unique animal story. A runaway husky is picked up by a veterinary student and inexplicably arranged for adoption by a professor, followed by a hamster, a rooster, and the queen's three-flowered cat originally raised by her grandmother at home, who follows a group of fish and bugs in the human body all day long, which is hilarious. However, the proportion of people in this work is still relatively large, but the character and interaction of various animals is very well grasped. Silly Husky is really the most unhealthy tool dog, bullied every day, silly cute; hamster birth ah birth ah, responsible for gags; rooster super fighting, who do not serve on the shutdown of the chicken; as for the cat is of course located at the top of the food chain, lawlessness.

The cutting-edge 32K version is not so easy to find, and my book is not in good condition, but I love this one, so it's better than nothing.

It's also a classic anime, a "strange cat that dances". Compared to other daily animal comics that are relatively neutral or even feminine in style, this one starts off with a distinctly manly comics tendency, with the scurrying cats giving some little perks. It's not quite right at first, but soon the style shifts to the behavior and performance of the cat itself. Mike is indeed a more "uncle flavor" of a little lewd cat, with other cute and warm type of animal cartoon style is not quite the same, but life does have a lot of such cats ah ~ but the most poke me is undoubtedly like the cat but desperately hiding the yakuza big brother vs.

This used to be a large format book, out of print for many years and then reintroduced by an unknown roamer, priced at a high price and turned out to be a library edition? The binding and quality are good, but the book is too small, so it's a bit hard to read, and even harder to turn the pages, so I'm not sure!

This genre is theoretically the most diverse, and in addition to these heartwarming and funny ones, there are also quite a few that explore the companionship of pets and end-of-life topics, such as Hajiro Taniguchi's "First I got a dog, and then I got a cat" which is so touching that I couldn't bear to read it if I had a dog. In addition, this genre also contains a "veterinary treatment" category, this type of work in addition to showing the animals are well-behaved, but also help readers to establish a correct view of pets, reflecting on the responsibility of human beings to cope with pets, green manga is more to "veterinarians Doolittle," "love of the dog obsessed with" as a representative of the great works, but unfortunately I did not get it. But it's a shame I didn't get any of them. The girls' manga are "Animal Clinic in the Alley" and so on.

Virtual fantasy is a fantasy story in which animals are the main characters in an empty setting, with cats being the main theme, usually mixed with myths and legends and everyday life, but usually underneath the heroic appearance, they can't help but show the animal's adorable and silly habits.

Cat fantasy in ukiyo-e style. In fact, it's based on everyday life, but with the addition of a fantasy component of cat demons and monsters, it's like a cat version of Bugmaster or a cat version of Natsume's Friend's Tent. Jubei, the "Cat Painter", goes around with a cat monster similar to "Cat Teacher" to help cats solve their problems, act as a communicator between cats and humans, and fulfill cats' wishes to make them happy. Whether it's the painting style, fantasy flavor and emotionally moving are all good works, I do not know why the popularity is not high, Changhong slowly introduced in the upcoming publication of the tenth volume (the Japanese version seems to be almost 20, but if it is the Tohato may have been cut off long ago!) However, because it is a unit drama, even if the head is cut off does not have too much impact, there are so many stories can see has been very good (desperately self-congratulation!).

This one is purely for personal taste, it's a four-panel manga where the unreliable cat "General" opens up a ramen noodle shop, and because of his complete lack of skill and haphazard management, there are basically no customers! Only our tool of a protagonist comes in every day and spits on him on time. The story format is a bit manga-esque, the jokes are a bit cold, but unexpectedly to my liking, and I personally find it quite funny. A **** 6 books finished, the back will occasionally interspersed with some short stories. The mainland has also introduced, but also two editions, but I personally feel that the translation is not as good as the Taiwan version of the rhyme, the funny degree is weakened.

Also recommended Tamura Yumi's "Magic Cat", although the main character is human, but there are also a lot of animal parts, all too cute.

Documentary fantasy refers to the "documentary" form of fantasy animal behavior and stories, usually set in ancient times, full of imagination, and most of the authors are very good at drawing, and those that have been able to be disseminated are good at both drama and painting.

Classic in the classic, dragon head and brain of the Agon by attacking the invulnerable shell and solid as a diamond teeth in the primitive world rampage, lawlessness, hate the other animals itchy teeth. At the beginning of the setup of the cold, one-dimensional heaven and earth only, later slowly have a hint of warmth into the integration, so that the image of Agon lovely up. Of course, the best thing about this work is the author's superb painting and amazing imagination, so that an empty world comes to life.

Thanks to Dong Li for reintroducing this book to my collection after years of being out of print.

This is not the same DNA, it's a cold animal manga from Lysol XIII, which I also got to know through the recommendation of Shinkansen. The same is a dinosaur manga, this anthropomorphic component is heavier, is a unit story, although the drawings can not be compared with the Agon, but the plot is richer than the Agon, depicting different dinosaur species and contemporaneous creatures of the story, some inspirational, some warmth, some offline, but also has a certain popularization of science, personally more recommended.

Dong Li published *** three volumes, not sure whether out of print, and black and white printing quality is more general. In fact, Jane in the introduction, *** four volumes, the story in addition to a few, basically the same, are 25k, printing better than Dongli, and cheaper, you can consider buying Jane in the version.

Again, "Shinkansen" recommended, cold in the cold, but super like, especially by the Shinkansen was published in the big fat fish and tiger shrimp mutual **** the story of life before the disaster of the struggle, helplessness and despair and optimism, not a word, but to say all what is "survival". Compared with the previous two works, this is more of a documentary feeling, the original is the story of ocean-related creatures, Dong Li gave the color pages of the full restoration of the high treatment, the end of a book, it is worth collecting.

The same kind of Ankishou's "Tiger Story", the style of painting and Agon has some similarities, the picture is very fierce, but a only in the face of nature and goat and stupid, really really recognize the goat to protect the peace, but also quite interesting!

Above.

Please ask for the name of the style of these two pictures!

The first style is common in graphic design, but there is no style name, similar to color block illustration or paper cut illustration.

The second one is similar to ukiyo-e, but with a modernized style of painting, and the coloring style is plein air and celluloid.

What is ukiyo-e style

Ukiyo-e style is an art style that originated in Japanese custom printmaking.

Ukiyo-e, or ukiyo-e, is a Japanese custom painting, printmaking. It is a unique national art that emerged in Japan during the Edo period (1603-1867, also known as the Tokugawa Shogunate period), and is typical of the art of the flower street. It mainly depicts people's daily lives, landscapes and plays. Ukiyo-e is often thought to refer exclusively to color-printed woodblock prints (called nishiki-e in Japanese), but in fact there are also hand-painted works.

In the early days of ukiyo-e, it was said that there were "Shisen in the east and V-nobu in the west," and that while Shisen of Hishikawa in the eastern capital was the counterpart of V-nobu of Nishikawa in the western capital, V-nobu of Nishikawa also produced a great deal of artwork, although V-nobu's reputation was not as strong as his, since many of the scenes had already appeared in Shisen's works.

Artistic background of the ukiyo-e style:

In Asian and world art, it presents a special color tone and richness, after more than 300 years, the influence of Europe and Asia, nineteenth-century Europe from the classicism to the impressionism of masters of all schools of thought is also inspired by this style of painting, therefore, the ukiyo-e has a very high artistic value.

The art of ukiyo-e, in the early days, was originally ukiyo-e, that is, paintings made by painters with ink and color, rather than woodblock prints. Flesh-brush ukiyo-e, which flourished in Kyoto and Osaka, began as a decorative school of painting.

It was used to paint frescoes for expensive buildings and to decorate interior screens. The content of the paintings had a strong local flavor, including landscapes of the four seasons and places of interest, and they were especially good at expressing female beauty and had a high degree of realistic skill, which was appreciated by society. The technical achievements of these Yamato artists were passed down from generation to generation, and the art of ukiyo-e was the first of its kind.
