I decided to read some Naruto this week for the Manga week because
it has been a manga that I enjoyed since I was a kid. It is based on a boy named
Naruto who has big dreams of becoming the city's leader (Hokage) one day.
Although the story is based on such a simple plot, this story is composed of
700 manga volumes. I think that the text is really relatable and the content is
very immersive because of the relationships that are developed through the
story. I also noticed that the content was heavily emotionally driven and I
couldn't help but become so attached and wearied by the characters.
One element that I really appreciated about this manga was the
multitude of quiet moments that appear throughout the manga. It reminds me of
the point the Scott McCloud made about panel-to-panel transitions. He mentioned
that in more Eastern comics, the storytellers use more aspect-to-aspect
transitions to represent reflection. I think that this quality is probably one
of my favorites because it really lets the mood of the previous moments just
resonate.
I also really enjoy how the gestures and emotions of the
characters are really exaggerated. I think that this quality is more accurate
to the emotions that we feel.
Overall, I think that this manga is great!!
