unless I'm overlooking some obscure mangaka, no one else even comes close to those two
Jonathan Sanchez
Not a mangaka but a LN writer.
Aaron Reyes
i doubt Araki had any clue on most of the bands were and just used their names because they sounded cool
Brandon Sullivan
You're retarded
Samuel Peterson
The motherfucker listens to Boyz II Men I will never believe a Japanese person would know who they are
Aiden Peterson
Yeah, I doubt that. This is his music collection in his studio, no clue how much he'd have at home
Nathaniel Baker
you doubted wrong, Araki is a very close follower of popular western music. There's a reason that the character Mariah appeared only 6 months after the release of Mariah Carey's first album
Jace Cooper
>Listens to Snoop Dogg
Based Nigga
Andrew Ortiz
I always wondered if a Western creator decided to name things after foreign music. Would it sound cooler or not?
Jonathan Long
Hideo Kojima
Jeremiah Stewart
depends on what you count as foreign. A work where everything is named after Asian bands would be kind of wonky, but a lot of western but non-Anglo bands have some pretty cool names
Dylan Jones
Hori
William Scott
Napoleon manga
Hunter Fisher
All of them
Aaron Cruz
Douman considering all the western references in his stuff and one of his biggest artistic inspirations being Mike Mignola.
Adam Gutierrez
Samefagging but I mean it's not like Cass Cain is the most mainstream character either so clearly he knows his shit.
Tyler Foster
It's easily Fujimoto. He can't stop referencing hollywood movies and even buys into westernized tranny-rights shit.
Jayden Allen
He named a stand Doggy Style recently. Also said he's been listening to the album while writing the B.I.G. fight
Dylan Morris
>He can't stop referencing hollywood movies
Kinda the point of the character. Also the ones mentioned are huge fucking blockbusters and worldwide phenomena iirc
>buys into westernized tranny-rights shit
Just because he showed the mental torment of someone who doesn't feel comfortable with their identity? There's no underlying message behind this except for making the reader think "wow it must suck"
Austin Ward
>prince 1999
>Snoop dogg doggy style
Jason Peterson
>There's no underlying message behind this except for making the reader think "wow it must suck"
user, this was a manga about a man who was literally on fire forever. Making trannie suffering anywhere comparable to that is a joke.
Zachary Powell
Never said it's comparable but it still made you feel for this otherwise one-note character while making perfect sense
Nathan Campbell
classic rock is actually really popular in Japan
Jordan Wood
>keeping valuables in a studio
Adam Smith
Kenichi Sonoda is so westaboo he was thrilled when American fans brought their guns to anime conventions for him to sign.
Also he's a huge Blues Brothers fan which is the biggest reason he set Gunsmith Cats in Chicago.
Levi Thomas
the most incorrect opinion ever
Aaron James
Talking about Batman, how about Masakazu Katsura?
Jack Gomez
Miura
Samuel Bennett
This is a great pick.
Levi Flores
He also is, or at least was, good friends with Adam Warren.
Kayden Hernandez
I can see why, Adam Warren did a good job at emulating Sonoda's art style for Bubblegum Crisis Grand Mal.
Grayson Cox
Fuji showed that it wasn't comparable when she got lit on fire just like Agni. She mentioned that him being able to move or breathe was incredible.
But her problem was a significant one, undoubtedly.
Easton Hughes
Sebastian Brooks
Really? might have to pick up Jojo again I stopped right after Nat King Cole stand introduction
Zachary Hughes
Rock and metal dominates Japan, the real reason to get a Japanese gf is because she will more likely than not like classic rock of some kind
Ethan Harris
There's even a manga about a poorfag school teacher getting Jimi Hendrix as a rock and roll newtype ghost, also starring Kurt Cobain.
Austin Gonzalez
Yeah, Sonoda and Shirow are pretty obviously his biggest influences at least early in his career. Sonoda drew a pin-up piece for Magical Drama Queen Roxy, the Gen13 mini that Warren did back in the day as well.
Ryder Long
I would say Suehiro Maruo. His Shoujo Tsubaki (The Girl of the Camellias) is a direct reference to Dumas' La Dame aux Camélias. One of his short stories is a direct adaptation of Bataille's L'histoire de l'oeil. He references some Western authors in his DDT and his style is reminiscent of German film expresionism.
Akira Hiramoto (Prison School) makes several references to western culture such as Shakespeare, Taxi Driver and Milton Friedman.
He has a manga that's literally about Mississippi Delta Blues.
Carter Rivera
Its a shame he tried to deviate away from that early style. It might have been a shameless clone of Sonoda and Shirow, but at least it wasn't a mutant with blow up doll lips.
(Granted, his most recent work in Empowered seem a lot more naturalistic)
Easton Rivera
you just posted him
Jack Bell
Obvious b8
Jace Fisher
Naoki Urasawa
Lucas Harris
Isn't his style based on some type of weird Japanese film?
Leo Ortiz
The guy behind Monster, right?
Matthew Sanders
Yeah, his style now looks somewhere between where he's been for most of Empowered and his earlier stuff. Still don't like it as much but it looks better now.
Fuck that Gen13 run is so good. Shame it got cut short.
Angel Barnes
And Billy Bat, and Master Keaton.
Wyatt Rogers
His Manben series is great, he interviews different mangaka about their daily lives and watches how they work on a project, if you never saw it.
The Junji Ito episode is a favorite of mine.
Ryan Gutierrez
Adam Warren stinks.
Ryan Lopez
It's based on the Ukiyo-e wood paitings in the themes regarding topics and style but the characters movements, gestures and compossiton often resemble german silent films like "Nosferatu" and "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari"
Jonathan Richardson
Camden Sanchez
Isn't hajime isayama a huge game of thrones fan? He also likes western memes
Jaxon Walker
Japan is the second largest buyer of music in the world. Surf rock is the true king though, The Ventures were bigger than The Beatles over there.

The west in westaboo doesn't mean just the us you dumb burgers.
Mason Price
I would think like you, but there's no way that Pucci's final stand being called Made in Heaven is coincidental
Chase Parker
Ancient Magus' Bride along with Lord Marksman and Vanadis could count since the former heavily uses Western European folklore and latter makes a few references to Slavic and Rus' paganism, involves fighting an alternative version of the Ottoman Imperials, and dealing with Slavic folklore characters.
Dylan Rodriguez
Hayami Rasenjin (mangaka for Kutsuzure Sensen and Taihou to Stamp, historical advisor for Princess Principal) is a slavaboo of the highest order.
John Davis
Murata
Daniel Collins
ODA his entire series is about western pirates.
Lincoln Taylor
What video is this?
Robert Hill
they're about as close to pirates as naruto is to ninjas lmao
Jaxson Miller
How does he look so young?
Eli Clark
Wait, there is a manga about CZ? Why did nobody tell me about this?!
Nolan Parker
this
Charles Murphy
You should probably lurk more, considering its usually mentioned at least once in every retro anime thread on here.
Jack Hall
Grayson Morales
Murata is a traditional Japanese man
Landon Edwards
>western comic with heroes named Boris or Melt-Banana
They'd probably get away with it
Brandon Murphy
constantly listening to upbeat music you enjoy
Jaxon Hughes
You're seriously overestimating Japan's cultural isolation.
Cooper Parker
As a Czech I am amazed that those crazy foreigners jerk off to the most mundane of guns.
Aaron Perez
The main character has a personal bias for that specific model, since it was given to her by her dad.
Noah Brooks
Yes, Steel Ball run is my favorite jojo part, How could you tell?
Jack Turner
Lmfao.
