Hiroyuki Takei's Juuki Ningen Yunboru

Postby Debitt » Tue Feb 27, 2007 10:07 pm

I randomly caught wind of this series when I found fanart on a Japanese website - I haven't been able to track down anything but a teeny picture of (presumably) the main character on the Jump Weekly website. Has anyone heard anything more about this? ^^; I love Shaman King, so I'm really excited to find out more about this one.

I haven't read it personally, but it was so unpopular in the Jump rankings that it was cancelled after only ten weeks of serialization (and ended this last issue actually.) Jump is extremely brutal to series that don't make the cut.

Poor Takei can't seem to get a break.

XD Wow, you're kidding me. The few Japanese sites I saw seemed pretty enthusiastic about it.

That's too bad, I managed to find the first chapter and I wanted to see where it was going to go.

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."

"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther

"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."
- Dr. Joseph Ton, the exiled Romanian pastor (quoted by James Montgomery Boice)

He'll probably be back. Shaman King was successful for a large portion of its run even if it did get canned at 32 volumes.
And he's definitely not the only artist to ever have failed after a success and then come back(Watsuki comes to mind).

I highly doubt he'd quit - and if he did, I'd be sorely disappointed. SK began to drag after a while, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
