I think it was already a jackpot when it became a live-action movie in the 2000s for some reason.
Thanks to that, my representative work was “Gyakkyou Nine” until “Aoi Honoo” came out.

Baseball manga won’t become popular, so it’s impossible, right?

I don’t think anime suits me…
The live action was good, but

That’s such a thing to say, like a manga by Island Moto…

I want to see Onsen Man animated.
I think it will definitely be popular if done properly.

It seems like the impact of a double-page spread wouldn’t come across well in an anime.
That’s that! This is this! And then strike batter out!

Let’s animate the masked boxer!

There is a funny element in the way they seriously say silly things, which is why live-action really suits Shimamoto’s works.

The drama of Aoi Honoo was truly blessed.
If that trouble hadn’t happened after that…

I honestly think Shimamoto’s works look better in live action than in animation.
It seems like it might end up flopping if it’s an anime.

If they make one more live-action adaptation, I might start self-deprecatingly wonder if my manga is not suited for anime!?

The art style and the vibe are old-fashioned.
Animating this illustration just as it is would definitely be tough.

The basics are parody manga, after all…

Yuichi Fukuda does good work when teamed up with Shimamoto.

Is Magma Taishi a work by this Tezuka-sensei?

Wasn’t it right after Aoi Honoo that Toshiaki Okada’s blunder was discovered and he resigned from being a professor?
The former executives of Gainax are all worthless.

The movie “Adversity Nine” was quite interesting.
I remember it was a punchline that said it would be impossible to hit because the new Howl’s Moving Castle movie was synchronized with a blockbuster movie series… was it Star Wars?

What happened to the drama of the transfer student from the flames?

After watching “Gyakkyou Nine,” I felt like I could recklessly go for it, so I worked hard on my job hunting and somehow managed to squeeze into a place that was academically out of reach for me.
It was a nostalgic feeling, like “It’s just a science department I accidentally entered! I’ll somehow outsmart those mechanical guys and get a job!”

In the thumbnail, it looks like an outrageous chin.

It is filled with reckless energy.

I want to see the transfer student from the flames.
I just want the quality of the old OVA.

It can’t be denied that the finals of the prefectural tournament were so good that they somewhat lost momentum afterward.
It feels like the person drawing is also aware of that atmosphere.

If it’s anime, I want to see Masked Boxer.
I just like masked boxers.

I had heard various things about the live-action Adversity Nine, but I got hooked on the original after that, so I was quite shocked.
Also, Horikita Maki was just so cute after all.

Regardless of the quality, to be honest, even at the time I wondered… why was it a live-action?

I can’t completely hate Yuichi Fukuda because of Aoi Honoo.

Please also make a live-action adaptation of Gekito.
Let’s shave Tetsuji Tamayama’s head!

Shimamoto is an amazing person, but does not ride the mainstream of the major leagues at all.
Despite frequently riding, for some reason, it was an existence that went unnoticed, swirling around among a group of skilled professionals.

Because it’s a parody of a hot-blooded manga.
By doing something that could only happen in manga in live-action,
Moreover, it becomes a scene that adds another layer of parody, like Shimamoto’s live-action work.

Kokoriko Tanaka surprisingly suits it well…

I heard that the thread picture is almost recreated in the Sunday morning shows.

It’s amazing that Hell Koshien has become a movie.

I wonder how they were able to market Hell Koshien as a movie in the first place.

It’s a strange drama.

It feels like a drama based on a manga.

There was an anime scene in Pachislot and Hayate the Combat Butler.

>>9Let’s do it… Gai-Fax movie adaptation!

Was it that someone mistakenly called it a movie thinking it was a TV drama, and that’s how it became a movie?

It seems that the transparent runner is a misunderstanding by the author.

The Flame’s Transfer Student was adapted into a drama…

The voice drama that was created for the film adaptation was really good.

Professor Shimamoto said in a commentary that Hinode Sho is definitely working harder and it’s sad.

I think it was better as a movie than as a drama.

I want to see a live-action adaptation of “Ping Pong President.”

However, they cut characters and had that kind of ending to wrap it up in just one movie.

By being adapted into live-action, the sense that Hinode is making an effort has intensified.

If it’s going to be animated, Ninja Man would be great.
There’s a panty shot.

I wonder if my body can handle the shuriken…

If it’s a red card, it’s soccer, so we can do it, right?
A bird-man appears, but…

While “Gyakkyou Nine” does have some parts where it resorts to gags, the characters are seriously passionate, which makes it a masterpiece.

It seems difficult to depict the illustrations of Shimamoto from this era in anime.

I am imagining that I want to use the gathering where Kazuhiko Shimamoto went to the year-end party for the ED.

It became a masterpiece because it progressed briskly with enthusiasm and gags, pushing through to the climax of the prefectural tournament finals before any flaws could be revealed.

Thanks to their character and connections, they have quite a strong influence, but basically, they’re more of a lesser-known writer, aren’t they, Shimamoto?

Even though Ultraman, Kamen Rider, and the Sentai are all working hard together…

There’s not much of a fallback on bad habits and jokes in “Gyakkyou Nine.”
Although it presents a gag with enthusiasm, the protagonist is serious, so it ends up being a properly passionate manga.

Finally, I feel good that Aoi Honoo was a hit.
I wish it had been a hit outside of autobiographical manga.

If “Gyakkyou Nine” had been published in Sunday, I think it would have been more well-known and would have normally been a hit.
Because I’m the captain.

I think Shimamoto’s works are more suited for live-action.

Shimamoto’s manga seems like it would be more interesting if adapted into live action.

It feels just right that the exaggerated acting in live-action is like something out of a comic.

In anime, it’s a bit difficult to get those kinds of exchanges just right.
I get hooked on games like PowerPro.

Well, if the base is broad, there are plenty of top-tier ones as well.

It’s close to people like Harataira and Hiruko.

I have a memory of Kokoriko Tanaka giving a great performance.

In the genre of being in their 60s, doing roles as a company president, store manager, character designer, and manga artist, I might be the strongest.

The fact that it has been continuously serialized for decades without interruption means it’s definitely in the top 10%.

It might be strong in a genre where there are four boys only.

Even “Howl’s Pen” has been supporting the magazine since its launch for 10 years.

I overlapped with Fujita’s new series, but theirs is really trendy and super interesting…

The current serialization is… that…

It’s impressive to have the courage to do something that was laughable in an out-of-ring brawl on paper.
After a while, it seems like no one will mention how it all started like that in the first place.

Adversity Nine, I’m right here in the audience!
It was fun even though I was just an extra.

I really felt relieved that the meetings I used to have directly with the president during the COVID period disappeared.

I think the only way to beat Fujita is to push the route of drawing girls seriously, as they are cute.

Recently, I’ve been wanting to draw nostrils, so I’m worried about that…

The movie was quite interesting, “Adversity Nine.”

There are absolutely no elements that can truly work, like Onsen Man or the Red Card and those kinds of things.

It is indeed prolific, isn’t it?
