Akumetsu

September 23, 2008

I’ve been reading a lot of manga on my spare time. Amongst them all, Akumetsu is probably my favourite.


Everything is always detailed to the smallest crack and I love the bold, strong lineart.


And the facial expressions are just so amazing. How well faces are executed is always an underlying factor as to whether or not I would keep reading a series.

The art is so great. Things like this make me want to start drawing again.


Things I learned today: At the end of Metal Gear 3, Big Boss is awarded with the Distinguished Service Cross, which is the second highest military decoration one can obtain. The only reason he wasn’t awarded the Medal of Honor was the fact that it requires statements from seven witnesses, while the DSC only needs three. Unfortunately for Big Boss, he only had three that would, or were alive to testify: Major Zero, Para-Medic, and Sigint.
