🪐 Finished art from this week’s video! 🪐

Or at least a snippet of it, because this week’s video actually unpacked the entire process that went into making a prizewinning comic! It was a real journey, and the full process video – (as well as a motion-animated version of the comic itself! 👀) – are available right now on ▶️Youtube! (^^)/

Original illustrations are the killer of my blog's engagement, but I didn't train drawing for 35 years to draw nothing but fanart. This is probably the most Slavic piece I ever made.

Lupin III and Jigen Daisuke were childhood friends!?

Original article was translated from Japanese.

---------------------------------------

Jigen Daisuke is Lupin the Third's partner. He participates in most operations and often works with Lupin, right? How did the two of them meet in the original manga?

Jigen's roles are listed in the order in which they were published in the original work in the magazine "Manga Action" (Futabasha).

“To catch a killer” (October 12, 1967 issue) "Detective Jigen" role

“Hail to the King” (October 26, 1967 issue) Lupin's childhood friend

"Damned if you do" (November 2, 1967 issue) Lupin's partner

“The hand is quicker than the spy” (November 9, 1967 issue) Lupin's partner

According to Monkey Punch, the role is different for each episode. “At that time, it had just been serialized and I was drawing it in Gamushara. I thought it would be a one-episode series, so other than the main character, Lupin III, the roles changed every episode.”   The role in which Jigen first appears in the Lupin the Third manga is as “Detective Jigen'' (chapter "To catch a killer") However, this "Lupin Killer" or “Detective Jigen” is actually Lupin the Third in disguise!! In this episode, Lupin the Third disguises himself as a "detective Jigen” and defeats the fake Lupin.   I don't know if Jigen actually existed as a detective at this time, but I don't think Lupin III would disguise himself as a non-existent person to carry a plan (also to deceive his opponent). It is believed that Jigen Daisuke was a detective at this time.   Jigen Daisuke and Lupin the Third were childhood friends! ? The real Jigen Daisuke appears in “Hail to the King" (October 26, 1967 issue) ! It is here that Jigen is revealed to be Lupin the Third's childhood friend. Mr. Monkey Punch seems to have said at the time that it was a one-story series and that he wasn't conscious of the connections between the episodes, but when he forced himself to think about the connections, in “To catch a killer’’ (October 12, 1967 issue) , the real Lupin the Third disguised himself as his childhood friend Jigen Daisuke and carried out the operation in order to exterminate his opponents the Rat Clan.   After that, Jigen Daisuke will be portrayed as Lupin the Third's partner. By placing Jigen in a position where they knew each other as childhood friends, he probably decided to keep him as his partner. Originally, Monkey Punch also felt that Lupin III needed a partner. “Most of the time, I can say that I drew things with great momentum, so back then I would have never imagined that Jigen Daisuke would play an important role and become a character loved by fans, up until the current hugely popular Lupin the Third!”   You can also try reading it. Hikari TV Book.

---------------------------------

I hope the translation is ok. It's a confirmation that the Jigen who tries to kill Lupin in chapter "To catch a killer" isn't in fact the real Jigen but Lupin disguised as Jigen and the Lupin who dies in the end is fake Lupin. It's the only way that chapter makes sense.

In future chapters we meet other fake Jigens, like the one who gets killed in “Remember to forget” (reprised in ep 6 part 1) or the fake Jigen in the chapter with the "Death virus" or again the one who causes troubles and ultimately tries to infiltrate the gang in the Bulletproof Rose chapter.

🌼Art/Writing Introduction🌼

🌿About Me🌿

My favourite genres are fantasy and sci-fi

I am a very slow reader (sometimes, I write faster than I read???)

My art is heavily inspired by manga art, though I experiment with style quite a lot :)

🌿My Current Projects🌿

Taylaron's Story

A cottagecore vampire novel 🌼🧛🍃

Follows a 15-year-old vampire in a fantasy world

Foraging, magic, friendship :)

It was my NaNoWriMo project

I am uploading it as an audiobook to YouTube!

Blurb:

Taylaron is a 15 year old half-vampire who ends up alone in a country far from home, struggling to keep afloat. Not many vampires immigrate here, so he has to buy overpriced blood at international markets just to feed himself.

He meets a mysterious new necromancer friend, who spends her time trying to keep her sick sister from getting sicker. Can he help her in time, and can he finally reunite with his own family?

Israphaellia's Adventure

Fantasy + Sci-Fi Manga (full watercolour!)

It's set in the same world as "Taylaron's Story" but a few years later, when the characters are in magical university.

It's a sequel to a comic I made as a teenager, but you don't have to read the original to understand this one.

I am uploading it as a "dubbed comic" to YouTube! :)

Blurb:

Just after graduating from Moonrise School of Elementalism, Israphaellia is struggling to choose which magical university she should attend. She worries about getting assignments done on time and keeping in touch with friends attending different universities. However, what she really should have been worried about is the new adventure one of these catch-ups will send her on.

▶ Making-of & more

[jojaydoodles]

Yuwen Yong (宇文邕), future Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou (周武帝) was a huge fan of board games and even wrote a book about it. A lot of my story's plot revolves around his survival under the behind-the-scenes rule of his power-hungry cousin and regent, Yuwen Hu (宇文護). Imagine seeing two of your brothers getting killed by the guy and then serving him hand and foot even though he made you an "emperor" - in name only.

The game in the picture is XiangQi (象棋) the Chinese chess, or so called "elephant chess". It's most likely the same game, or a version of the game that Yuwen Yong wrote about in his book titled XiangJing (象经).

安靜的幸福【日安同學漫畫】

安靜的幸福是相對的安靜。 在一個熟悉安全的場所中不受打擾， 隱約聽得見環境的細微聲音， 感覺很幸福。

很久沒畫這種生活細節的漫畫， 剛出道的時候都是走這個調性， 被很多人說無聊。 沒錯，真的蠻無聊的， 但是我很愛這些無聊的細節， 愛到把它畫出來^^
