If by priviledged you mean that his wife will eventually lose her mind and functions until she becomes a complete husk after giving birth to a daughter that will probably vanish afterward....then yes...he is quite priviledged.
Please Emanon, be mai waifu
Privileged? She's going to rip his heart out.
Nah, he makes all the reader jelly, so there is gonna be a retaliation.
Little does that guy know how privileged he is.
Wait, you're missing out!
Doesn't real publishers make it slower?
I'd really wanna read all of it
but I've seen novs and mangs being completely dropped due to actual publishers picking up only to say 'not much viewers/ buyers meh' ... then due to the law being how it is adds risks for free translators picking up, which ultimately disables the chances for readers to get more releases.
The series is originally a set of novels, which are actually still ongoing. A bit like Diane Duane's Young Wizards series, in a sense--it started in the 80s and the most recent installment was released last year.
The story is essentially told in a sort of in-medias-res, in that the story of Emanon herself is billions of years old. For our purposes, though, it really doesn't matter that much.
Here are the novel titles, in order of release:
-Omoide Emanon (Memories of Emanon)
-Sasurai Emanon (Wandering/Wanderer Emanon) [this has been split into multiple manga volumes; the second is the most recent manga release]
-Karisome Emanon (From here on, I'm not going to decide how I specifically should TL the names; it's ambiguous in English)
-Maroudo Emanon
-Yukizuri Emanon
-Utakata Emanon
........Just read Memories of Emanon first and then read this, in chapter release order.
Weaper: Holy shit, five?! I'm going to enjoy translating every word.In fact, when I become an actual media translator for a real publisher, this is the first series I want to work on, if nobody's on it yet by that time. (Novel or manga, either would be wondrous)
I have this strange longing for Emanon.
The '67, '73 and so on represent the years. ie: '67 means 1967
that way it shows a chronology of Emanon's adventures.
There are currently only Memories of Emanon and Wandering of Emanon volume 1 and 2 published but I believe reading somewhere that the artist was aiming for a 5 volumes story for the wanderings
1. This is just about my favorite manga. And I love it for the reason someone said earlier:
"Every time I read this my heart breaks. (She looks a bit like someone).
Anyway, I get the feeling that the writer/artist is in love with his character lol."
Emanon, with her always-composed manner and lithe body, always makes me think of a particularly slim, elegant girl I had a crush on in high school. And I would bet anything that she was based on someone who became an even sweeter memory for the mangaka -- that is, she was someone whom he had, or almost had, a relationship with and afterwards could never forget. "Memories of Emanon", which seems to be a quite realistic fragment of the life of a sensitive young man in which he meets and loses contact with an enigmatic young woman, strongly suggests that.
And the drawings of Emanon naked here in "Wanderings" seem to me to be full of memories of desire and/or love--and particularly of the worshipful regard that desire can sometimes rise to. I believe the complex and grandiose storyline that the mangaka is trying to tell about Emanon here also arose from the intensity of his attachment to the memory or the girl she's based on. I just wish I could understand that story!
2. But I can't. Even the note at the head of the title page that purports to explain the intended order of this material just confuses me more. Could anyone please say what volumes of this series were published when--and, more importantly, does that represent the order the volumes are supposed to be read in?
I don't think there are missing pages. Regarding your question about the brother, do read my post. Hope it helps, or please correct me if I'm wrong.
Posting this to help clarify things as I see some people might be confused, since I was a bit confused myself after reading all the releases the first time.
Do correct me if I'm wrong
Hm... sounds plausible. Also, was there a character who seemed to go along a parallel time line in there somewhere, or did I hallucinate text again
Ah yes, you're right, i remembered that page wrongly on the previous arc about the next meeting of Emanon and the other time wandering woman
http://vatoto.com/read/_/86463/wandering-emanon_v1_ch7_by_gantz-waitingroom/4
i remembered the 1990 but they were not talking about the time they were in, but their next meeting.
so basically that part of the story was in 1968
The first volume is Emanon from 1967, not 1990.
And it's pretty normal for us not to see Emanon past in the current story as she herself doesn't remembers it (ie: she's amnesic)
romance in the air?
Ema has been a mother in past lives, so it's not terribly hard to see happening.
I'm not sure, as we're following the Emanon from 1973 , the one that encountered her brother was Emanon in 1990
Considering they look the same without having aged, the Emanon of 1973 is the mother of her 1990 version (that we have read the wandering in previous arcs) and mother then of that strange brother.
I wonder then if that guy is going to be the father.
true. probably has something to do with her brother though, doesn't it?
probably just happened at random tbh
Awsome! I kind of feel there are pages missing (like where did that brother go?), is this intentional or is it a mistake of some kind?
I think I am a little in love with her as well haha
