[edit] Missing his right hand?
There's a video with Azuma at [1] (He's the first man on the microphone). It's almost imposable to not notice that his right hand has the appearance of a prosthesis. Anyone have any more information on this? --Paul Soth 07:53, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Is this sentence really necessary?
"His original works deviate from standard manga plotlines; rather than base science-fiction or fantasy settings, Azuma's manga take place in a completely normal world, and the entertainment of his stories is derived almost solely from the well-developed personalities of his characters."
although the yonkoma format may seem unusual to western manga fans, and azuma's sensibility is definitely unusual, there's a lot of translated manga available to us non-japanese readers out there with perfectly normal settings and no elements of science-fiction or fantasy whatever. indeed, a lot of them take place in high schools. --Scarlettraces 09:17, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, I wrote that sentence when I was unfamiliar with slice-of-life stories. You can removei t 24.91.16.229 17:31, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
