Black Jack SHONEN CHAMPION COMICS ● Hiyu Comics ● Osamu Tezuka
I’ve somehow bought all the volumes as e-books and am re-reading them.
Isn’t this an incredible masterpiece after all?
sai
Rama
The very first cover looks pale.
>>2Don’t speak ill of my friend.
It’s a work that saved Tezuka, which was considered over at the time.
There is an impression that doctors like manga.
>>4The medical aspects may be somewhat exaggerated due to the era and the fact that it’s a manga.
I believe the underlying humanism is consistent.
You’re saying something quite unnecessary at this late stage, aren’t you?
“Someone who has wiped away the atmosphere of ‘Tezuka Osamu is so outdated these days!'”
It was a horror comic, right?
Don’t forget the early horror route!
>>7The story about extracting a baby like Miura Jun through spiritual surgery is before the appearance of Pinoko.
It feels like the early explicit horror direction.
Initially, there wasn’t a setting where I received skin transplants from a half-African friend.
After ingesting a story close to the original episode in the 2004 anime, I will consume a mostly original story in the OVA.
I wonder if the electronic version properly includes all the episodes.
The complete set of the treasured edition I bought at the used bookstore had some stories omitted.
>>11That’s impossible.
>>15Was the one with the six fingers that came out of the lock no good?
>>19That might be true, but there are actually quite a few embarrassing episodes related to the seat of pleasure.
I also have the entire series, and it’s amazing how many times I can read it.
I am also somewhat of a doctor.
There’s nothing better than having your life saved…
>>13Basically, you send back anyone other than those judged to have no other options.
The scene where Dr. BJ appears in the first chapter is reminiscent of the popular gekiga from that time, isn’t it?
The story of the older brother who went insane from severe burns and finally unleashed himself to burn his younger sister to death is terrifying and frightening…
>>16最後の姿のコマ縫合がほつれだしてるよね…
And the bitter conclusion is that there’s nothing to be done about the twisted heart entangled with various feelings of love and hatred…
One green tourmaline that was a hassle to read is now available as a book.
The reason for the unreleased story is quite a tale… It’s a shame that the sequel to the story where the cause of the plague was a military satellite in the Akita Shoten version was not published.
Everyone is a traveler searching for the meaning of life.
I wonder if there is a way to read while sitting in pleasure.
>>24Printing the April 1975 issue of Champion at the National Diet Library…
>>24I’ve read it before, so it probably exists.
It seems like reading it online without permission would be quick, but there are options like buying a used copy or going to the National Diet Library.
I wanted to hear those words.
It seems that Tezuka himself said he has regrets about lightly depicting the dangers of lobotomy surgery in his manga, despite its risks. Yeah.
It seems you’re already accustomed to it; the procedures at the National Diet Library were really quite smooth.
>>31There are certainly some people who come to hear about unrecorded episodes, not just BJ.
I was researching, but you can read the general summary and images on the blog “Seat of Pleasure.”
I love pirate arms…
>>34I like that girl.
An old man who encouraged a boy who was about to commit suicide after failing high school.
Facing life and death due to a major accident during construction.
I really like the story of the boy watching over that surgery.
For some reason, there was only one book at my place… it was about a plant human due to pollution and a pair of twins whose heads were stuck together.
I had read it during a free release some time ago, but I was moved to see that things like the episode with the first girl have become normal not being available in hardcover books.
I can’t imagine the time when Tezuka was neglected because I’ve only read his masterpieces.
>>38It should have been the main serialized work “Phoenix” from the era when the thread image was being neglected, so it’s hard to imagine.
>>41Is Alabaster before this?
>>38People who are later called geniuses were probably just like that at the time.
>>45If there hadn’t been a rise like BJ, it might have been treated more lightly and its achievements might not have been conveyed.
>>49At least it’s quite dubious whether “Phoenix” was treated like an unfinished masterpiece that is regrettable…
>>45A few years ago, when I read up to the part where Aizen is defeated in the free release of Bleach, I thought that the period of everyone saying it was like diluted Calpis would start afterward—then I remembered the shock of finding out that we had already entered that period by the time of the fight against the Espada.
>>58The impressions differ between the serialized version and the paperback edition…
During its serialization, Steel Ball Run faced an incredible storm of criticism.
>>77I wonder what kind of world I’m being made to read about…
It is a world that does not deny that it was such a world.
>>77I don’t think the evaluation of the Jump era has changed that much even now…
Using all the parts of the first brain-dead spoiled brat was a bit traumatic.
>>39This and the president has served the nation well, but it’s quite a gruesome story, isn’t it?
There are various pages in this manga that have been poorly edited, which is troublesome.
The formidable enemy Pinoko at the beginning.
Which episode is it where Kiriko leaves laughing maniacally in the last panel, and the teacher says, “But I’m still going to fix it!”?
>>46I remember the entire plot, but I can’t recall the title.
>>50There are many stories like that.
>>46Are they two black doctors?
This episode, due to the actual adaptation of the original debut, effectively marks the full-on appearance of Kiriko.
>>56Is Kiriko’s first appearance the one where she treats people infected with an unknown virus?
Even setting aside the fact that the techniques and storytelling of current manga are completely different from those of the past…
Even the latest version of Phoenix has its ups and downs, and when you read some lesser-known works that don’t get mentioned much in the complete works, you often end up thinking “…uh, hmm…” about them, oh divine manga.
Even if it was said that I was drying out, it shouldn’t have felt like my work had stopped, at least in the context of the boys’ magazine.
Is it because it’s a comic that there seems to be no bad luck at all?
I feel that there are many interesting comics in short stories that are masterpieces.
Speaking of which, there are many erotic ones in short stories.
For its length, it’s impressive that there aren’t any bad episodes and it’s consistently interesting.
The story about the parasitic cactus is getting lost in an incomprehensible flow due to word hunting…
>>59Tree buds, tree buds.
>>59Not a patient!!
No, it’s a patient…
>>70Is this still labeled as “sick person”?
In the past, during a time of strict self-regulation, Fujiko F. Fujio’s works had “Kiburi Jiji” changed to “Jiji” and “Pansuke” changed to “Machi Shou,” but now they have been reverted back to “Kiburi Jiji” and “Pansuke.”
I wonder how the revisions in Tezuka’s works are handled.
I went to the original art exhibition, but it was really tough to have the endless news about the baby locker incident playing continuously.
>>60Is that your child? I like it when the author gets slapped on your behalf.
Kirika, who was able to change from a ridiculously low-tier villain vibe to a character with strong beliefs when it was turned into a standalone book, is amazing.
The conversation about how powerless we are with Chirico and Chen-Chen! What was that about?
>>66Was it the case of a boy who had been sleeping for several decades in a mine or something and suddenly aged rapidly and died just like that?
>>66We’re idiots! This is the episode of Urashima Taro!
>>66Is it the case that if I treat a patient who has been in a vegetative state and hasn’t aged, they will suddenly age and die?
>>66I thought it was the story about Kiriko’s dad having a valve in his airway, but maybe I was mistaken.
>>95You slapped Kiriko, who had given up on life and opted for euthanasia due to a slight touch difference, asking what they think life is!
>>104Sorry, was that the case?
The star system is really too convenient.
It’s not so much that I was dried up, but more that I was treated as an old-timer who couldn’t keep up with the changes of the times…
>>69It’s a different work, but there was a scene in Neo Faust where Tezuka was told by an editor, “Your era is over!” I guess he really held onto that.
>>87But, you know… I’m going to die hanging in Neo Faust…
>>99That’s why I read hundred tales.
It seems there was a lot of backlash saying that this isn’t medicine!
>>72It’s half fantasy, so it can’t be helped.
When I read it after a long time, I go “Oh! I remember this story!” It’s just the right amount of forgetting, isn’t it?
The Kiriko episode is good, isn’t it?
I love telling the suicidal teenage kids to hurry up and go home.
It’s an external work, but I feel like I’m being looked at very negatively for having to confront patients (both close women) with lethal radiation damage that cannot be cured, despite Kiriko being Kiriko, and having to release them from their suffering twice.
Was it Urashima Taro?
I like the story because it makes me think that Kiriko is also a doctor trying to save lives.
>>78I’m also a part-time doctor.
It’s best if your life is saved.
The story where BJ took Kiriko’s patient and treated them, but they died in a car accident made Kiriko laugh out loud at the end, but the last panel shows him slumping his shoulders and leaving in sadness; it’s really impressive how well the manga captures this.
>>81Is that from a skit or something?
>>86I think it’s the scene where I still heal people!
It seems like there are various scenes mixed in with Mr. Honma’s.
>>93Kiriko was smiling with her head up until just before, but in the last panel, she is looking down.
It’s not a character that would rejoice over a life saved being lost, so I think they were really sad after all…
>>86We are fools! In that case…
A boy who helped an unconscious person died of old age.
A real god comes down and heals.
If there are aliens (provisional), it’s foolish to poke fun.
There was something on YouTube explaining the differences between the standalone book and the published version.
I just learned for the first time that Blackjack appears as himself in other serialized works.
I think it’s a pretty good conclusion that it ended up feeling like a doctor who prioritizes the patient’s quality of life above all else.
Well, if you think about it, it might seem that way.
I also like the relationship between Hyakkimaru and Chenchei.
Kiriko is a doctor with a pure heart.
BJ doesn’t really like Kiriko…
“I have no interest in mere murderers.”
I know it’s out of order, but Kiriko seems like TETSU…
>>94I heard that the name TETSU comes from a very twisted Kiriko.
It’s common for very old manga to be frequently revised.
It’s become something outrageous like Devilman.
I like the story about a death row inmate getting shot in the head to avoid damaging their surgery scars.
>>98The question of whether we heal to kill is a powerful conflict that speaks to the reader well…
We are idiots! It seems like we’re getting mixed up with that.
In the end, Kiriko seems to be trying to skip a step while climbing the stairs.
A fairly trivial story, yet I remember the title: The Monkey’s Paw.
What’s worse than Devilman is that…
I love talking about sushi restaurants.
Fantastic…!
Dialogue with the dead is just like recent news that seems to be remembered in reality.
If we had a popular character ranking, Kiriko’s younger sister would probably quietly rank high.
>>110Because it’s erotic.
>>110I still don’t know the name…
>>110Yamamoto’s version of the spin-off is great, isn’t it?
The story about implanting a human brain into a deer makes me think maybe I was tired when I came up with this…
I think there are definitely times when you wonder, “What is this story…?” in BJ too.
The reason the reward was a huge sum of money was to buy a deserted island, turn it into a minefield, and avenge my mother. Is that okay?
>>117The uninhabited island aside, are you turning it into a minefield?
>>121It was originally a minefield.
I bought up such an island.
>>117I wanted to depict searching for my mother’s avenger and buying a deserted island to protect nature.
Manga with a plot that makes a boy’s heart race seems to either not suit the gods or maybe I’ve just become too accustomed to modern storytelling, because when I read it now, I think, “Hmm…”
Specifically, it’s the third one: Dororo.
There was a story about repairing the hospital’s computer.
The computer that says it is sick.
>>120This story was interesting.
I forgot the punchline.
>>146The guy who was locked up with me hesitated to pay, and I thought that’s about it, so I just returned it and that was the end of it.
>>233It was definitely a story about building a shelter and then getting trapped while bragging about it.
>>233Isn’t that another story about being trapped in an underground shelter with the wealthy?
>>233It’s a story about being trapped in an elevator.
Separate from computer repairs.
>>233That should have been when you were trapped in the disaster shelter.
>>249Aren’t you trapped in an elevator instead of a shelter, and since there are only a few wires, isn’t it a story about finding them by feeling around to cut the wiring?
>>256It is correct to touch the wall and cut the wiring, but it should be a shelter.
It’s a story about demonstrating to the computer that there is an earthquake, causing it to close the shelter door, but with no one outside, it can’t be released and gets trapped.
This turned from a horror story into a slice-of-life manga.
It feels like K has turned from a battle story into a human drama.
The popularity vote has confirmed that BJ Pinoko is in 1st and 2nd place, but for 3rd place, it’s either Kiriko.
>>125I feel like Mr. Hyakkimaru, Mr. Shiitake, and even the ship’s doctor might also come there.
Even if there are some memory lapses, it might be a story I haven’t read, so I can’t really point it out too much…
When it comes to Kiriko, I remember a story by someone else where Kiriko herself suffers from a strange disease that causes water to accumulate in her abdomen, and the treatment was a bit erotic.
>>127
>>127It was drawn by Kenji Yamamoto.
A character like Pinoko has sprouted as Kiriko’s assistant.
>>127It feels a bit like Jubilo.
There aren’t many other frequently appearing named characters either.
>>128Omukaedegonsu
A nice girl aspiring to be a doctor that I met in Vietnam!
My sister was trying to save people in a different way than I was!
Both suffered from irreversible levels of radiation damage, and I ended up watching over them!
This is Kiriko!
>>131Don’t kill off the main character in the spin-off…
That’s right, especially since she’s Kiriko’s sister.
Black Queen, etc…
Money is not for the sake of moving freely overall.
It is used for nature, to repay kindness, and for revenge as well.
Surely, the surgery on the mummy and the surgery on the invisible ghost were in separate episodes, right?
>>135It’s different.
The ghost is from the early days and still dragging along with the supernatural manga.
The mummy is the one that helps in return for gratitude.
Rh-‘s president or something…
Isn’t it a different story to leave someone in a minefield and to say that villains on a deserted island should die from a snake bite?
I don’t remember anymore…
>>139Different
The former is a story about a mother seeking revenge.
I heard that the style has passed its peak, is that true?
>>140Tezuka Osamu’s art has changed quite a bit, but it doesn’t really give the impression of deteriorating with age.
My partner’s total hysterectomy and Chen Chei are quite tough jobs.
There was an episode about a superhuman who performs surgery with bare hands, right?
>>143It’s that one with no head, isn’t it?
Thanks to this story, “The Summer of the Cuckoo” was really interesting.
The ones in the minefield were the guys who kidnapped Chen Chei during the unexploded ordinance incident, right?
I’m not a person with a noble mission or anything like that, you know, teacher.
I’m quite temperamental, doing things the way I want, prioritizing my emotions.
I am consistently dedicated to helping those who sincerely wish to live.
I’m not fixed on just one use for it.
For the sake of a person’s kindness, which is unparalleled, I would even buy a hospital.
Even back when I first read it, I was thinking, “What does this mean?” But now, reading it again,
It’s not really a gender change but a hysterectomy when it comes to Dr. Megumi’s story, and the way it’s handled… you can feel the era, can’t you?
I’m going to treat it because the rival horse was kind of irritating.
I’ll do it out of stubbornness.
It’s generally interesting.
How did the story end about the man who exchanged brains with a deer and could only love his wife in the deer’s body?
Husband’s brain transplanted into a deer?
>>153That’s not BJ.
>>153I think that transplant caused the brain to swell and turned into a monster.
>>153What we did in BJ is that the brain is constrained by the skull, so there is a limit to its growth! If we embed a separate spacious container in the chest and move the brain there, the brain will grow and we’ll have the ultimate genius deer! We ended up creating a monster!
The guy who embedded a tape recording of his dead wife’s voice in his dog’s throat.
There are somehow two organizations that are like a doctors’ union, right…?
>>154The one from the Japanese Medical Association is that electric shock thing.
The overseas doctors’ federation had Pinoko kidnapped and she ended up in a tough situation.
>>154Wasn’t it Japan and the world?
The admiration from the world is welcome, and they should have no interest in a Japanese medical license.
I love the old man who has ambition and does not get swayed by money.
I love the playful side of Blackjack…
Pinoko wants to go to school, but it turned out to be impossible… I like the story because it’s so sad.
🐸
>>159Kill him!
What was done in that way was a horse, not a deer.
The NTV version of the anime usually has some kind of happy ending adaptation, which feels comforting.
Is Largo a single-use character?!
>>165I’m glad to be alive…
>>169Moreover, there was an earthquake just before their first appearance, so they became a dog that was suddenly there.
Since he is a quack doctor, it makes no sense to expect a sense of ethics, but isn’t it quite something to say, “I was told to pack jewels, but I stuffed in imitations” and “I donated the jewels”?
>>166Huh? I embedded the real one and it burned together with the body.
>>166Chenchen is not really a good person…
>>174It seems that it was ultimately done by Master Hyakki Maru.
>>166Wasn’t that done by a front-line doctor?
>>188You’re doing even more amazing things!
>>188BJ did it first, so give it back after redoing it! → It burned up, huh → The imitation, you know.
So it turns out the doctor also made the same choice as BJ.
>>194I recently compared the magazine version and the book version, and it seems like the rewritten book version feels better.
The intonation of Nadare in the anime felt really off.
A story about a man who hit his head and thought a cat was family, and a story about a man who made it possible for a dog to mimic the voice of his deceased lover, and how the dog and cat are both incredibly erotic.
>>171I’ll kill you.
In the commentary book, besides Kiriko as a rival, people like a spiritual healer and a blind acupuncturist were also introduced, but they really didn’t have any significant role, right?
It’s a good guy, but there are quite a few cases where it’s really frustrating that he dies.
I can somewhat understand the changes in the Heisei version.
21 is trash.
>>178Drama version…
I love stories where I’m crushed by a line said by an equally greedy internist, just like the ones I usually say.
医師会会長の孫だか何だか助ける話は免許もらったけど要らねー！！って破り捨ててたな
…In that case, since the registration as a doctor itself is done, it seems like it’s just treated as not being placed where it can be seen?
>>180Was it when someone from the mafia tried to have their child treated by BJ, but was denied by the chairman and ended up getting shot in retaliation?
I think Biwamaru leaves a deep impression despite the number of times he appears.
I saw that the anime was being streamed for free, and it was interesting how various stories were mixed together.
They probably made it that way to wrap up the story, but is the Phoenix element really necessary?
You’re quite something… to easily heal five people like that…
Dead men tell no tales!
