Did.
This series is interesting, isn’t it?
I wonder if they will do a similar reissue project with Hiroyuki Eto?
>>1In the booklet titled “Magical Circle Guruguru Land”
I have a memory of all the author’s DQ 4-panel comics being included.
First, distribute it as an e-book.
>>2Books of this kind have complicated rights issues, and there are no signs of reprints for the older ones…
It would be nice if it were something that just came out recently.
With the female witch Kazuki Ishida
I liked Takashi Niiyama’s female warrior.
I remember that some anonymous individuals were bragging about having been selected for the collection of masterpieces.
I found it while cleaning the house.
I swam from Arianhan to Noanil and climbed mountains to get to Mual.
I remembered that this was the original source for Ortega jumping into the Gearga’s great hole and swimming over to the cursed island.
Only the one by Ami Shibata will be released on the same day as Dragon Quest 1 and 2.
>>7I thought there was no need to call them “fake” heroes…
I remember the Derorin from Dragon Quest: Dai’s Adventure.
>>17You should make them a fake hero!
At the time, I had it and read it a lot, so if someone mentioned a topic like that, I would probably remember almost everything.
The Dragon Quest four-panel comics since 6 have been somehow…
I wonder if there are any people who can draw Dragon Quest 4-panel comics right now…
It seems that there are more people who have never played Dragon Quest itself.
>>10A collaboration project 4-panel comic was done to match Dragon Quest 3 HD.
>>10As expected, the way of worrying is just too foolish.
How much do you think 11 and Remake 3 sold?
>>10I really like the vibe of the original 4-panel comic from the Reiwa era that was posted here; it captures the characteristics quite well.
If you’ve played Dragon Quest even a little, you’ll get the joke.
For fans, it’s significantly important that it doesn’t generally fade even when read now.
So I really want it to be available as an e-book.
I had never played Dragon Quest at the time, but I read it anyway and found it interesting.
It seems like various rights are complicated.
I’m really fond of the DQ7 four-panel theater, which is practically a Maribel fanbook.
Well, there aren’t any authors from the early days who were really in the zone with their writing.
Arena attacks with a cane.
“Let’s definitely meet at Makino when it’s four.”
Suzuyu and Nachi… where are you fighting now?
I wonder why there weren’t any anthology-type works from Square’s RPGs back then? I want to read one.
…I have memories of being envious while just watching with my fingers in my mouth.
I think FF4 to 6 are treasure troves of ideas.
>>23I wanted it so much that I ended up making it myself… It was messy and boring because it was drawn by a kid.
>>26What kind of material was it, just for reference?
>>30Moogle supports the ceiling that comes crashing down in Gogo’s cave as expected, but in the end, gets crushed, while Strago gracefully jumps onto the rocky area of the lava zone in Phoenix’s cave, despite it being a bit beyond his age, but then the ground crumbles, and it’s like “ugh!”…
>>40Old man, are you gonna do it or not?!
>>40I felt the talent of a 4-panel comic artist.
>>23It’s not impossible, I guess.
There are occasionally anthologies for the Saga series.
I saw an erotic anthology, the one from FF7.
It’s strong that the representative authors are still active and presumably easy to contact.
There are also 4-panel comics for MOTHER2 and Zelda, and I often see the same authors here and there.
Ah, I realized that this writer is quite popular.
>>28The first person that comes to mind is teacher Kirie Reiko.
There are many people who can’t even be confirmed to be alive, let alone be active…
But it seems that even Enix has poor management of manuscripts for Dragon Quest spin-offs.
It seems that a revival of Sky Story is impossible…
Teacher Kirie also drew Mario 4-panel comics.
Is it also Professor Kurimoto?
>>33Mr. Kurimoto has participated in the test play of Dragon Quest and has been involved with it for a long time, drawing Dragon Quest four-panel comics early on in the item story and so on.
Teacher Kirie Reiko also did Mario 4-panel comics.
Ah, will Aamin’s reprint come out along with the release of the DQ 1&2 remake?
I laughed so much at the sharp Eleven manga I posted on Twitter, so I’ll buy it.
I want to see a book created with a completely different lineup plus a few familiar authors.
There were quite a few people whose drawing skills were mediocre.
I still thought it was amazing.
>>37Such a mixture of good and bad is quite enjoyable.
I realize that there are clearly people who are bad at drawing and those who are good, but the funniness of the content doesn’t directly connect to that.
The 4-panel comic by Mr. Shibata to commemorate HD2D was great just like the good old days with Sunekosuri-kun.
There were one volume of a 4-panel comic and one anthology for Xenogears.
I wanted to read Dupleism.
Chapter Four: The Sisters of Montbâra – End
The SO2 had an outrageous number of volumes.
>>46Su
ッ
Regarding Dragon Quest, even though the writers have varying skills, it was clear that they all equally loved Dragon Quest, and that resonated with me as a child.
It’s okay if you release a Chrono Trigger 4-panel comic from now on.
I’ve seen Taijan Hokuto and Kazuki Nakai in other 4-panel comics too.
I wonder what those two are up to…
>>50Kazuki Nakai was interviewed a few years ago about his memories from that time.
>>57I’m no longer a manga artist, but I’m working… somehow that feels reassuring.
Taiwanese giant Hokkuto is missing.
Even now, when the corresponding scene comes up in RTA videos, the impact of the lines flying around is amazing.
Give me back my training staff! Give me back my keikogi!!
I might want to see a 4-panel comic of Octopath Traveler.
Hey, you idiot!
I realized the charm of slightly erotic comedy through Takashi Nishiyama.
Please also release the ones like Echigoya Saiban and Taro Sakamoto.
>>58In that generation, I want Horiguchi Leo too.
Teacher Kirie seemed to be more into drawing Mario and Zelda.
It’s not that Dragon Quest is not great.
>>59The Mario brothers, with a hint of melancholy, were nice.
Being left behind in the lift or relying on the whistle because I couldn’t clear it…
It was casually included, but that one-shot by the authors who attacked Enix is an amazing collaboration, isn’t it?
>>60I have a vague memory of Kazuki Ishida crashing into something on a motorcycle.
I was getting off because of the sagging.
>>62The loose art style is cute.
I liked Yumiko Murakami.
>>63The first thing that came to mind with the information that Princess Samal will join the party in the upcoming DQ1 and 2 was this person’s joke.
I’m grateful for you posting on my behalf too.
“What’s this? The pirate captain is saying I’m like a girl? No way. …Huh? It’s incredible, exploring a cursed cave with such slender arms! I got loose socks! In the village of Dragon Sue on the northern isolated island! Is this a Dragon Shield!? Dragon scales too! Was there a famous dragon hunter on this island!? Over here, there were dragon tails, and they’ve appeared! This time! I got loose socks!”
It’s nice, the Dragon Quest four-panel comics.
The Mario 4-panel comic by Kirie Reiko is
The candle fire enemy that appeared in Mario 3 was heartwarming and great.
I’m glad to see that Professor Murakami is still doing well on X.
I am the man known as the kappa of Lorecia.
Also, Yama Miyuki, Sachiomi Chino, and Mitoken Motoka seem to be doing well enough in X to have posts on anniversaries.
>>71It was really a shame that Master Sank sword retired at that time due to various circumstances.
The image of the princesses drawn by this person was a perfect fit, so the princess in the remake of 5 feels like a knockoff.
What is that overly sweet brother complex that seems like it was thought up by a lolicon?
Right now, everyone is mostly in X, so it seems easy to request.
The shock I felt when I first saw Guri-chan was amazing.
Super Robot Wars was releasing an incredible number of 4-panel comics and anthologies…
It might be mixed in casually with someone like Yuichi Hasegawa…
Nowadays, there are quite a few people who write in the style of the past using manga characters.
Recently, the people I’ve been meeting here are also going down that path.
I like Taro Sakamoto.
>>77Wasn’t this person doing some kind of serialized work in Gangan?
It has the impression of someone like “Where is the uncle?”
>>78I was doing it vigorously, but “Where’s the old man?” is the king of gags.
>>85Is it the king of gags?!
I completely forgot… Thank you.
>>105(Receiving the first color on the back of the Fantasy Continent poster, the last paradise)
In Takashi Niiyama’s Mario 4-panel comic, when Peach hears Bowser’s line, “During tough times, if I suddenly think of Princess Peach…”
Suddenly, Princess Peach.
I’m sorry, but it seems that there is no Japanese text provided for translation. Please provide the text you would like to have translated.
Suddenly, Princess Peach.
I’m sorry, but it seems there is no text provided for translation. Please provide the Japanese text you’d like translated.
Thigh Princess
The absurd and nonsensical topics that I associate and get irritated by are so forced and ridiculous that they still strongly remain in my memory.
In Volume 1, there are scenes of eating slime and dismembering a unicorn rabbit.
>>80Turning the glacier demon into shaved ice or something like that.
>>80There was also a joke about forcibly making a female priest change to a sage, resulting in her becoming completely naked due to the mechanic that all equipment is removed upon changing jobs.
Volume 1 has a very unique vibe with the authors and the jokes.
The fundoshi! And the medal king escaping with a rocket blast are definitely too impressive.

>>82It’s natural for teenage boys to show interest in “H things.” I oppose completely dismissing it as “not allowed!” However, scenes with “erotic” elements in boys’ manga tend to revolve around “sexual harassment.”“Sexual harassment” is an act that ignores a girl’s personality. However, if “sexy” depictions are made while showing that “girls have a personality too,” I believe it is acceptable.They were a person with an incredibly strong sense of human rights for their time…
>>113I was also in charge of the beginner’s guidance page at the end of the 4-panel comic book.
They were explaining examples of things that are not allowed, such as those with excessive blood splatter.
>>113There was a somehow refreshing and heartwarming charm.
It seems like even people I’ve never seen before know about my runny nose.
>>84During the streams of DQ1 and DQ3, when bridging the gap, the comments get flooded with “runny nose.”
>>84It’s generally played in three videos of Desman…
There were a lot of Devil Summoner and Persona too…
>>88I would have bought it if Mikaberu had drawn it, even though I didn’t know the content…
I was so into it that I even bought a book on how to draw the four-panel manga that Kirie-sensei was creating at the time.
Eito and Kaguriko clearly had an impact when they first saw this person; they thought, “This person obviously has a high level of humor,” right?
>>90I like the Hassan version of the song of the spirits from the 1P theater.
Congratulations, Professor Niiyama.
The ghost mushroom has joined the party at 5.

Recently, I was surprised by this from Leo Horiguchi.
In the end, Hero Samunestrov was doing a bit of work after all.
It feels like it’s going to take a long time to fully recover.
One-page comic theater is great, isn’t it…
I wonder if calling Baramos a “cabbage” is influenced by the four-panel comics.
>>100I was brainwashed by Ishida-sensei’s material.
I drew a four-panel comic that was relentlessly teased on 2chan.
>>101I wonder why Yamazaki was criticized that much.
>>106I only know that AA, but was it being criticized?
Wasn’t there an element in the style that could be criticized?
Most readers who like the thread images must have also read Gag King…
I wonder if Taijan Hokuto is doing well.
The demon god Grico was too interesting.
>>107Recently, four-panel comics featuring Ultraman have been gaining popularity.
>>107As a result, now that my painting style has become much quieter, I feel a sense of loneliness.
Well, it’s unreasonable to expect someone to maintain that level of excitement.
I’m really happy that Ami Shibata is still playing Dragon Quest.
They were also working on the remake of 3.
Yamazaki Wataru had incredible artistic skill and stood out since the posting era with just one type of joke.
I thought this person would definitely come to the main house… and before I knew it, they became a 4-panel king.
>>112Moreover, that person only came up with jokes from 1, didn’t they?
I really liked Zelda from Kirie Reiko…
I remember the story about the link where I was seen writing my name on my underwear.
∧＿∧
Pyu~ (＾＾) < Please continue to support me from now on (＾＾).
=〔~∪￣￣〕
＝ ◎――◎ Yamazaki Wataru
I thought every time I saw this person in a post, they were just a frog, but then they became a king.
>>119People who specialize in specific themes definitely leave a strong impression.
This person is a monster joke, and Wataru Yamazaki is a one-liner.
A woman in her 30s with children.
I really liked the relationship between Ryan and Hoimin in the submitted work, Hinemosu-san’s.
It’s a shame that Wataru Yamazaki was in the same era.
If it’s Zaki, I would die.
The path of the fierce king, she attained enlightenment. “Why is the demon sword user stronger than me?” If possible, it’s better for wizards not to get involved in battles. Hey! We’re finally at work. The king of Samantha is just fine, but it seems like we have monsters causing worry. The country has become a complete mess. I was thinking of raising taxes. I need to fix things after hearing that. But I have nothing but my naked self. Did you recommend me knowing that? I can’t forgive that. That king is a proper fit for this place. Oh no!
From now on, the monk is a sage.
Kiriko Reiko’s Mario 4-koma was also interesting.
Bowser is into tofu.
Seeing the painting of Tarumi and Mitukage made me feel like crying.
Asano Rin started posting back in high school, right?
Someone from QED was drawing a Mario four-panel comic.
I was already good at drawing around this time.
>>128That person had a serialization in the early G-Fantasy.
By the way, I was drawing Actraiser (completely different from the game’s content).
Noel and Ernesto from SO2 were treated terribly by Taro-chan, weren’t they?
>>129I liked this lawless territory of a topic, but I can understand why it would anger the two fans.
The unique and impressive style of Cat City caught my attention, but later when I read back issues of Fan Road, I was surprised to find that they were a regular roadie.
>>130I didn’t think you were a female writer…
I learned from the behind-the-scenes comic that “Oh, she was a woman.”
>>130In recent years, they have been active in horror manga, but I think it was a bit unconventional in their later career to have drawn four-panel gag comics.
>>136There is no trace of the style from that time in my current work… although I can’t help but feel there are still glimpses of it here and there.
I also liked the Contributor-Only 4-Panel Club.
Although I didn’t debut with DQ4 comics, there are a few professional manga artists who did later on.
Yukie Mori of the Medaka School.
>>132It was a place where there were few necessary pages, making it easy to split and have opportunities to be published, like with Dragon Quest four-panel comics…
There are probably many people for whom this was the trigger to hold a pen.
After all, Misato’s style seems like that of a female writer now that she’s an adult, but it’s hard to tell that when you’re a child, right?
>>135I really love the way that person draws Ryan…
>>139The tea is lukewarm… 🍵⚡
>>139The tea is… lukewarm…
I remember Enix’s 4-panel comics for things like Pokémon and Star Ocean 2, so characters like Shiratori Hato, Kanzaki Ryuuko, and Tenkuu Uchuu Ryu stand out in my memory.
>>137The three parties that have a strong image in the later stages.
I was surprised to see that Professor Kanzaki was participating as a guest in the two randomly bought Suikoden games.
It’s a Pokémon, but I’m glad that Haruka Mukamizuki is still drawing.
Scouting the authors of interesting works directly as manga artists is way too efficient.
The trend of 4-panel comics and anthologies shifted midway to things like To Heart and Komi-Pa.
It was an image that became entirely focused on gal games… but I don’t really know the reality of it.
>>145There were also some gal games around that time, but titles like Tales and Star Ocean continued to be released quite a bit.
It’s something like “Higurashi.”
Tea is good too.
Oh man!
A devilish Manya who was betting on the side where no one would die in a fight with Nekonozu.
Maybe a Hoimi Slime that is cute and doesn’t have an intimidating presence…
The touch of the painting is completely different from other artists and leaves a strong impression.
I really liked the material from Mr. Nishikawa of ZMAN.
The super cool Pizarro is burnt to a crisp in the fourth panel, what a gap!
I laughed at the joke where the laughing demon summoned by a random spell while riding in a hot air balloon falls to its death.
Oimo soba
>>150Damn it!
I liked Ayaka Kajiwara.
The range of writers was quite broad, wasn’t it?
>>152That person has the feeling of having transcended as Killer George.
Like this… (super dramatically beautified slime)
>>153Pound (umeboshi)
Monster Farm 4-Panel Manga Theater was a good thing.
Makino-san was drawing happily.
Teacher Fujimori Nuts asked me where to find sexy lingerie backstage, so I wrote down the answer and sent it, and I was so happy when I got a postcard with an illustration back.
I used to buy the FE: Genealogy of the Holy War comic, but it’s really sad that the art style became flat in the second half and there were many incomplete sections.
I didn’t really like Ami Shibata that much comparatively.
I like Papuwa and HERO.
Isn’t it about a million swords of steel along with runny nose and medicinal mushrooms?
>>158Well, it greatly makes the characters unique, for better or for worse.
>>158There were indeed people who disliked the style where life is regarded lightly and blood is spilled.
Why are you blowing Baron’s horn*!
>>160Pakaran

Chino Sakiya is drawing for the anthology of Wonder Project J.
“What is Pino’s dream for the future?” “To die from a sex crime,” I remember laughing to death.
>>161Just that sentence makes me laugh.
There’s someone who is really good at emulating Toriyama’s art style.
I’m here with Zelda, but I vaguely remember a person with a very dramatic cartoon style.
>>162Yamazaki Wataru and Murakami Yumiko, perhaps?
>>162It’s Denshirou Tadano.
Cover illustrations for volumes 1 to 5.
>>177I love that there’s a punchline that matches the back of the cover.

It’s a shame that the Super Robot Wars series, which had an incredible release, stopped around the Z era.
>>166I’m pretty sure the last one was the anthology for Super Robot Wars NEO.
That was quite good…
