Okay, ill reply here.

silly boy.
An individual does not take of those that sont belong. a group does.

The image was the same, the content was the same, it has nothing to do with interpretation(please check for the definition of this word). It is simply a heavily improved version. The same picture just done with much more artistic skill.

also might i say, for a top set student your grammar is horrific, as is your spelling.

slamminriff In reply to skaneda [2007-10-29 17:09:26 +0000 UTC]

actually I was getting at the point that art is coherent with the artists own interpretation e.g. Picasso you wouldn’t get someone re-drawing his art and saying no that’s how its supposed to be would you? so why do it here, you cant tell someone how they should draw and what is better each person has their own personal tastes in art just like with music. if any thing is horrific it has to be how immature and pathetic you are, seriously go sort yourself out!

Oh noes.

i've been following your little kiddie-debate for some time now and ive got to say, who gives a .

This entire thing started, to my knowledge, because you decided to comment on laura's artwork - how they're all "chinese/japanese".
Firstly i say this, what's your point?
Let me give you some backround information on modern manga. The term was first used by Katsuhika Hoksai,most definatly Japan's most well known artist but he's also called the most un-japanese artist who is infact japanese.His artwork didnt abide by the Japanese Art conventions of the time at all. He use the term originally to describe his sketches and if you seriously think they look anything like modern manga -you need to be institutionalised.Like i said in our breif encounter, which was also repeated by laura, modern manga is the love child of western cartoonists , European filmmakers and conventional hokusai-styled sketches.

But regardless your racial profiling of her artwork kinda annoyed me. It showed you had very little understanding in the topic, and i wondered to myself, why the hell would he mouth off about something he obviously doesnt know jack about.

the first reason that came to mind was sheer ignorance, the second was that you wanted attention or that you wanted to cause a flame war(if so you failed, you ended up losing) or finally that you just wanted a reason to talk to laura and have her attention. If the latter is the case that im afraid you've blown any chances. If its the second its sad, because its people like you who give DVA a bad reputation. and if its the first reason i said, good god you're sad. VERY SAD.

okay now onto more lulzy matters.

even after you obvious lack of knowledge in the original topic, you spread it over and made it person by attacking her personally. well myfriend, i hope you feel very good about yourself- you successfully insulted a 15 year old girl.Congratulations,seriously you deserved it /end sarcasm.

You know what made of fail though? the fact that you cant acknowledge that you up. that you lost and the only reason this pointless flame war continues is because of, what i assume to be, an inferiority complex.


feel free to launch a war against me by the way. i really do hope you try.

this is spoken as an /i/nsurgent for any of mods are watching.(z_c reporting in ;\)

actualy it started because laura and her friend decided to gang up on one of my friends so congrats to them for insulting a 14 year old girl
I dont realy wish to start an argument with some one i dont know but is it any of your business.
Tbh i dont realy care about all the manga stuff and i dont want to research it i just cant see how people can leave bad coments on other peoples work when their work is very similar to alot of other peoples work, and what bad name does DVA have and how have i gived it this name by mearly having an argument with some one?

stop. flaming. lora.

have you got something against western anime? tell that to anyone else on this site and they wont like it. its mostly american/ british anime here and its bloody brilliant. a lot of effort goes into them and each person has a different style- original or heavily influenced, this style of drawing is unique to every artist. flaming lora for japanese anime is flaming 75% of dva for japanese anime.

really! are you blind or stupid? probably both. you cant even spell. 'japanees'? 'chinees'???

wow. you suck.

if any one's stupid its probably you. You have no idea how pathetic you really are you don’t know iggy yet you follow Laura’s orders to give her bad comment's do you have no personality of your own? how can every artist have a different style to western anime when its all supposed to be the same? also why cant you two just develop your own style not copy from a style that’s from a complete different origin? once again just like Laura no individuality just a new wave mannequin

by ranting about how unoriginal my work is, do you realise how unoriginal YOU are being?

i have had this, and laura has had this, hell, probably MOST users have had this complaint at some point. you obviously have no idea what you are talking about. i'm not just saying that to get a rise out of you, really, you obviously don't know ANYTHING of the origins of the manga/ anime style.

before you make a comment, such as the one you sent to me, it would be a good idea to research what you are talking about. it would help in not making you come off as stupid looking as you sound.

indeed, the manga style started in japan, but it was heavily influenced by western art. japans trade with western countries, such as america, caused the japanese to undergo an art style change in an attempt to adopt outside influences into their own culture. i'd say it worked pretty well. actually, japan incorporated many western practices during this time, like its government and education systems. though a little off topic, it just goes to show how western japan is. ever heard of the term 'wasei eigo'? japanized english. japan is becoming more and more under the influence of western culture, a sad truth actually... japan may not stay japanese for much longer.

that was a total lecture, i know, but i just wanted to show you that the manga style we know and love does not come from 'a completely different origin'.

as for your comment about anime supposedly being all the same, have you actually looked at the work of other manga artists? try aoyama gosho, clamp and peach-pitt. they are NOT the same. sure they are all manga style (the term manga being the word for comic- an american concept) but the hair, eyes, body proportions, clothing styles... utterly different. i also suggest you actually looked at the different styles of manga are. there are as many as there are styles of 'realistic'. to say that manga is unoriginal is to say realistic isn't as well. if that is your way of thinking, then i suppose its true- people have been drawing realisticly for thousands of years- not just for the few decades manga has been about for.

please, think about what you are saying.

and about laura and iggy. Laura is my friend, yes, and that is how i found iggys page. but i follow no ones lead. i simply didn't like her work, so i said so. it's as easy as that. though i can't see why it got so out of control- a comment board is for just that, commenting. its to say what you want, not just blindly stating how awesome a piece of art is just because it was a friend who made it. it then just becomes a praise page for an undeserved (perhaps) piece of work.

again, i ask you to think about what you are talking about. To call anyone stupid and/or unoriginal (as you have) when the person in question has no idea of the subject (just as you don't) is... forgive me the pun, but it IS unoriginal and incredibly stupid.

please don't bother to reply that this is also unoriginal, stupid and shows i have no personality. by writing this i have clearly shown that i do in fact, have a personality. also, you would be proving me right.

slamminriff In reply to demonically-lemon [2007-10-12 08:12:21 +0000 UTC]

So you're telling me that Laura had nothing to do with you commenting on iggys work, you honestly expect me to believe that? Western cultures as you have said might have influenced the running of the country but I highly doubt it affected the drawing style. And those artists that you mentioned are probably the very few that developed anime and manga into their own style.

demonically-lemon In reply to slamminriff [2007-10-13 00:36:10 +0000 UTC]

ahhh... i did say i followed no one, but, that dosn't mean i can't stick up for my friends, plus i didn't like Her art work any way.

Like i said, research the artists and you will find out that they are HUGE and a few of the many mangaka who have a very distinctive style.

And of course western countries influenced manga, that is why it is comic book style.
