When he initially planned the story, Asano wanted to chronicle Punpun's growth spanning ten years over seven volumes.<ref name="imagine" /> The first half was supposed to be a romance, and the second half when Punpun and Aiko go on the run similar to a [[road movie]]. The manga grew to thirteen volumes because Asano wanted to focus on the art and because many characters developed their own side stories. Asano purposely emphasized elements of the first half like its silliness to increase the shock of the second half. With every dark turn in the manga, sales dropped, which Asano regretted because his readers were being alienated. He also saw his readers as an enemy when he received criticism, which led him to react harshly and cause more backlash. The manga also served as an outlet for Asano's doubts and fears, such as the fear that he might be a victim or perpetrator of murder.<ref name="mangabrog">{{cite web|title=Inio Asano interview — 'Reality is tough, so read this manga about cute girls and feel better'|url=https://mangabrog.wordpress.com/2014/07/06/inio-asano-interview-reality-is-tough-so-read-this-manga-about-cute-girls-and-feel-better/|website=mangabrog|date=6 July 2014|access-date=25 July 2015|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150726004421/https://mangabrog.wordpress.com/2014/07/06/inio-asano-interview-reality-is-tough-so-read-this-manga-about-cute-girls-and-feel-better/|archive-date=26 July 2015}} ([https://cakes.mu/posts/5605 Original] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208125041/https://cakes.mu/posts/5605|date=2015-12-08 }})</ref>

When designing Punpun, Asano wanted to find a balance between making his male protagonist too handsome or too ugly and decided to let readers imagine his face.<ref name="imagine" /> Asano originally planned to depict all the characters like Punpun's family, but his editor did not like the idea.<ref>{{cite web|last=Ozaki|first=Mio|title=The disaffected world of Inio Asano|url=http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/features/arts/20100416TDY11T02.htm|archive-url=https://archive.today/20100424192155/http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/features/arts/20100416TDY11T02.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=24 April 2010|website=Daily Yomiuri Online|access-date=25 July 2015}}</ref> Asano utilized photography and computer graphics for the backgrounds of the manga. Outdoor backgrounds were created by taking photographs, converting them to black-and-white, and printing them so his assistants could draw outlines and objects on them. Interiors were created in [[3D modeling software]], which had the benefit of capturing angles impossible with cameras. When asked why he placed so much emphasis on the backgrounds, Asano said that it allows the drawings to have more impact, especially since characters like Punpun are lacking in dynamism.<ref name="imagine" /> Asano later came to regret digitally processing his images because he felt he was ruining his pen art.<ref name="mangabrog" />

|Summary = Aiko Tanaka transfers into Punpun Punyama's elementary school class and they come to like each other. At home, Punpun walks into what looks like the aftermath of his father abusing his mother. While she stays in the hospital and his father separately, her brother Yūichi Onodera comes to live with Punpun. Punpun also learns that Aiko's mother sells miracle water and he makes a promise with Aiko to take her away to her uncle in [[Kagoshima]]. Punpun and his friends watch a porn cassette and stumble upon a taped-over confession from a man who has murdered his family, requesting that they locate the bodies and an award. Punpun and his friends, along with Aiko, visit the abandoned [[miso]] factory mentioned in the video.

|Summary = The publisher is unconvinced by Sachi and Punpun's manga, disliking the main character's "needless" depression. While Shishido gets badly injured after being mistaken for a shoplifter, and ends up paralyzed for life, Punpun's childhood friends Seki and Shimizu, who stayed very close, drift apart as Shimizu joins a cult led by the mysterious and exuberant Pegasus. Punpun, having distanced himself from Sachi who is now continuing the manga on her own, starts using a fake name and acting like a completely different person to shield himself from his depression, but ends up running into Aiko by chance.

Revision as of 05:10, 30 December 2024

Template:Short description Template:Use mdy dates Template:Infobox animanga/Header Template:Infobox animanga/Print Template:Infobox animanga/Footer

Template:Nihongo is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Inio Asano. It was originally serialized in Shogakukan's [[Seinen manga|Template:Transliteration manga]] magazine Weekly Young Sunday between 2007 and 2008, and was transferred to Weekly Big Comic Spirits, where it ran from 2008 to 2013. Its chapters were collected in thirteen Template:Transliteration volumes. In North America, it was licensed for English release by Viz Media.

A coming-of-age drama story, it follows the life of a child named Onodera Punpun, from his elementary school years to his early 20s, as he copes with his dysfunctional family, love life, friends, life goals and hyperactive mind, while occasionally focusing on the lives and struggles of his schoolmates and family. Punpun and the members of his family are normal humans, but are depicted to the reader in the form of crudely drawn birds. The manga explores themes such as depression, love, trauma, social isolation, death, and family.

Summary

Goodnight Punpun follows the life experiences of Punpun Onodera, a young boy living in Japan, as well as a few of his friends. The story follows Punpun as he grows up, splitting it into around four stages of his life: elementary school, middle school, high school, and his early 20s.

Production

Asano announced the manga a year after finishing Solanin. Encouraged by its success, Asano said he was done with "feel-good stories".[1] Despite initial opposition from his editor and publisher, he went through with the manga. Tokie Komuro, the editor-in-chief of Monthly Sunday Gene-X, who is a supporter of Asano said that the only reason Asano was able to serialize the manga was because of his good track record and reputation from his earlier works.[2]

Template:Quote box When he initially planned the story, Asano wanted to chronicle Punpun's growth spanning ten years over seven volumes.[2] The first half was supposed to be a romance, and the second half when Punpun and Aiko go on the run similar to a road movie. The manga grew to thirteen volumes because Asano wanted to focus on the art and because many characters developed their own side stories. Asano purposely emphasized elements of the first half like its silliness to increase the shock of the second half. With every dark turn in the manga, sales dropped, which Asano regretted because his readers were being alienated. He also saw his readers as an enemy when he received criticism, which led him to react harshly and cause more backlash. The manga also served as an outlet for Asano's doubts and fears, such as the fear that he might be a victim or perpetrator of murder.[1]

When designing Punpun, Asano wanted to find a balance between making his male protagonist too handsome or too ugly and decided to let readers imagine his face.[2] Asano originally planned to depict all the characters like Punpun's family, but his editor did not like the idea.[3] Asano utilized photography and computer graphics for the backgrounds of the manga. Outdoor backgrounds were created by taking photographs, converting them to black-and-white, and printing them so his assistants could draw outlines and objects on them. Interiors were created in 3D modeling software, which had the benefit of capturing angles impossible with cameras. When asked why he placed so much emphasis on the backgrounds, Asano said that it allows the drawings to have more impact, especially since characters like Punpun are lacking in dynamism.[2] Asano later came to regret digitally processing his images because he felt he was ruining his pen art.[1]

Themes

Punpun's depiction as a faceless caricature was meant to help readers identify with Punpun and encourage them to keep reading, both when he was depicted as a bird, and in his later forms.[1] Asano also utilized Punpun's simple look for symbolism,[2] like giving him bull horns to represent Altair, the cowherd star, to symbolize his love triangle as the Summer Triangle with Aiko as Vega and Sachi as Deneb.[1]

Asano described the young Punpun as a fundamentalist, which leads to his regrets and dislike of gray areas later. Asano also ascribed these characteristics to the other characters: "The main characters in Punpun always remain children in the way their purity leads them to fail and become social misfits." At end of the manga, Asano was originally going to make Punpun die while saving a child of a friend, but he felt that it was too "clean" of an ending. He continued the theme of nothing going right for Punpun by making him live and by denying Punpun solitude after Aiko's death by pairing him up with Sachi. In the final chapter, Punpun's experiences are contrasted with those of his childhood friend Harumi to show Punpun from the perspective of a normal person. Harumi sees Punpun surrounded by friends, but in reality nothing went right for him, further emphasizing the theme of failure.[1]

In terms of genres, Asano disliked the labeling of the manga as an utsumanga (depressing manga) or surreal, which he felt pigeonholed the manga. Since the manga was serialized in a seinen magazine, Asano created the manga for readers who could accept immorality rather than see the protagonist as a role model.[1]

Release

Written and illustrated by Inio Asano, Goodnight Punpun was first serialized in Shogakukan's Weekly Young Sunday from March 15, 2007,[4][5] until July 31, 2008, when the magazine ceased its publication.[6] It was then transferred to Weekly Big Comic Spirits, being published from October 20, 2008,[7][8] to November 2, 2013.[9][10] Shogakukan compiled the 147 chapters into thirteen volumes between August 3, 2007[11] and December 27, 2013.[12] Some of these volumes have been sold as limited special editions with extras like: a phone strap, T-shirt, colored pencil set with figures, and lensless glasses.[13]

In July 2015, Viz Media announced at Otakon that they licensed the manga[14] and would be releasing the manga in seven omnibus volumes,[15] with the first published on March 15, 2016,[16] and the last one on September 19, 2017.[17]
