Manga Talk: Beat & Motion Chapter 1 · Dad Needs To Talk

• 0:02
  What's up, y'all? And welcome back to Danny's to
• 0:05
  talk. I'm your host Robert.
• 0:07
  And today, we're diving into chapter one of a new series
• 0:11
  called beat and motion. Now, being motion is a story
• 0:16
  from now key Fujita and it's a new series that you can read.
• 0:21
  On both the Shonen jump and Manga Plus website / apps, so Be
• 0:31
  in motion now in the last year or so I have been very hesitant
• 0:36
  to kind of dive into new series and honestly even talk about
• 0:44
  them ever since the heartache from a couple years ago, that is
• 0:49
  a red hood, rest in peace. But this one came across my
• 0:54
  timeline earlier today and I knew nothing about it.
• 0:58
  I knew I did not even know the news.
• 1:00
  Sears is dropping today. Special I said it's just a
• 1:03
  Friday and so I was like, I'm just a quick read and here I am
• 1:11
  on the other side of it. I'm pleasantly surprised because
• 1:15
  this one kind of took me on a roller coaster of sorts that I
• 1:20
  wasn't expecting, because it follows this young guy named
• 1:25
  tatsuhiko, who is try to become a animator.
• 1:30
  In the in the sit in the industry and stuff.
• 1:33
  But the journey that this first chapter takes us on was very
• 1:40
  experienced expected because Throughout reading this first
• 1:45
  chapter, I kind of got several wires, kind of come to mind.
• 1:50
  Passion discouragement inspiration, encouragement
• 2:00
  trying to rekindle lost hopes and dreams.
• 2:04
  And so this, this, this chapter kind of sets up potentially big
• 2:10
  potentially, something that could Special if handled
• 2:15
  properly because we kind of start following our main
• 2:21
  character back when he was in school.
• 2:22
  I don't know if this was either middle school or high school
• 2:27
  because his school whichever great, it was whatever his
• 2:30
  school. There's a very well-known I
• 2:33
  believe it was an animator. Let me see.
• 2:36
  I think it was an animator that was very well-known anime
• 2:41
  director. That school is his alma mater.
• 2:46
  And so that's kind of what led RMC to kind of been interested
• 2:53
  in doing animation and stuff, because this director came to
• 2:56
  the school, I guess, in Spoke one time and complimented,
• 2:59
  tosser, he got and that kind of was the Catalyst to start him on
• 3:05
  his journey. So he began, you know, drawing
• 3:07
  and stuff and enjoying it. And it kind of changed the way
• 3:11
  that he was viewing. The world which was just Very,
• 3:14
  very, very beautiful to see his like, internal dialogue as he's
• 3:21
  kind of, like, looking at the world and doing the sketches and
• 3:23
  stuff. But as a parent, I know and a
• 3:27
  lot of us remember from being young Kids can sometimes be
• 3:33
  cruel to each other and that is kind of what happens because
• 3:38
  some kids best kind of bully him.
• 3:40
  Take your Sketchbook and tell this girl they're like, hey
• 3:43
  tatsuhiko has been drawing you as she calls him a creep.
• 3:47
  She's like, yo, don't do that no more.
• 3:49
  It's kind of creepy, but it was a picture of like I guess she
• 3:53
  was like outside track pictures whatever and he was just no just
• 3:56
  drawing a person her as inspiration for our for a person
• 3:59
  running. But, you know, so From that
• 4:02
  point, that kind of is where things start to kind of like
• 4:05
  Spiral and go the opposite direction for our main
• 4:10
  character. Because from that point forward,
• 4:13
  he no longer dress. Cool.
• 4:16
  Or Drew in public, I should say and they're from there.
• 4:19
  Some of his buddies, whatever talked him into joining a band
• 4:23
  because they was like, yo, boy. Yo, bro, you want to get girls?
• 4:28
  Let's start a band. And this, dude, he ain't, he
• 4:31
  don't know nothing. Pay no answering or whatever but
• 4:34
  and then we get a passage of time.
• 4:36
  Several years, go from him finishing up school, whatever he
• 4:40
  was in Middle School, High School through and to college,
• 4:44
  and him, and his friends are still in this.
• 4:46
  This band they're not very good and he is pretty much all but
• 4:50
  abandoned his passion for drawing and art and stuff.
• 4:57
  Now, one thing he kind of meant just and this is something kind
• 4:59
  of comes into play in a funny way that our own Is that he gets
• 5:04
  this dream of someday, marrying a pop out or whatever, he's
• 5:10
  specifically names, this random chick named Nico because at the
• 5:14
  time she was also around the same, a just down and kind of
• 5:18
  coming up. And so he kind of was like, yo
• 5:21
  okay. Maybe if I ban gets big, maybe
• 5:24
  we'll meet her and then that's how I mean, her will link up and
• 5:26
  stuff, whatever. But they are their band sucked.
• 5:29
  Their band with trash and then Letter to their college life,
• 5:34
  they end up, just just coming to an agreement II.
• 5:37
  Let's just end the band and go our separate ways and so they do
• 5:42
  and then we just kind of see tatsuhiko, just kind of fall
• 5:46
  into a pit of despair because he's like, man all these years
• 5:49
  have gone by and what have I done?
• 5:52
  I have accomplished nothing and he sees some video online of
• 5:57
  somebody post, a short little animation.
• 6:02
  For a music video, wherever they went viral and of course he's
• 6:05
  getting bitter, whatever. He's like, man, screw talented.
• 6:07
  People his buddy calls me up and he's like, yo, let's go out for
• 6:10
  drinks. So they're drinking chilling or
• 6:12
  whatever and he's complained, he's drunk, he's complaining.
• 6:17
  Whatever about his his woes and there's random woman that's also
• 6:21
  in the bar. She's also kind of drunk and
• 6:23
  she's kind of basically being like yo, stop complaining, you
• 6:27
  know and Later on in the night, you know, he ends up trying to
• 6:34
  call her a cab, but the cab won't take her because she threw
• 6:38
  up everywhere. And so he's thinking like, hey,
• 6:41
  this chick is kind of hot. Maybe I can make a move or
• 6:44
  something or whatever, but she ends up saying again, like yo,
• 6:48
  you are trash because just because your dreams didn't
• 6:52
  happen and you didn't get things the way you wanted to doesn't
• 6:55
  mean that you can crap on at somebody else's dreams and stuff
• 6:59
  and Our kind of had a scary moment where she kind of kicks
• 7:03
  him and to this guardrail or whatever.
• 7:06
  But at the time, it looked like she's about to kick our boy into
• 7:09
  some traffic like he's about to get east of cotton and that that
• 7:12
  is one thing about this chapter is that it kind of like kept
• 7:16
  making sharp turns and kept me on my toes and stuff because I'm
• 7:19
  a joke, I kind of know where it is.
• 7:21
  My God, whatever. And then it kind of like gives a
• 7:23
  little bit of a we're going to go this way instead and so that
• 7:29
  moment where she kind of calls them out for his attitude and
• 7:33
  stuff, whatever that kind of like awaken him of source
• 7:37
  whatever. So she wanders off into the
• 7:38
  night walk wonders home to the transition or whatever and he
• 7:42
  keeps on thing about this what she said and kind of basically
• 7:45
  just a size. So I okay.
• 7:46
  You know what? I can't keep dwelling on the
• 7:49
  past. I'm going to find a way forward
• 7:53
  and so, he pulls out all his old sketchbooks and stuff and kind
• 7:57
  of starts thinking back to, you know, how he was. so, his
• 8:00
  parents and his friends and stuff and all that stuff are, so
• 8:03
  he kind of starts putting in work and so after a few months
• 8:06
  he creates a short little Animation clip, whatever.
• 8:12
  That's a few minutes. Long post it online.
• 8:15
  And now this is something that I really felt and I feel like and
• 8:18
  this is one, one of many things that I feel like anybody, that
• 8:22
  is a Creator content. Creator, whether you do project
• 8:25
  as YouTube String, whatever type of credit you are whatever.
• 8:30
  This moment like really hit because he's alright, the videos
• 8:34
  done. It's been uploaded online.
• 8:38
  I'm forced to go to bed. It's late.
• 8:40
  I'm tired. I'm forced to go to bed and so
• 8:45
  he wakes up the next morning and the video has gone viral and the
• 8:51
  idol chick that he had kind of been Thinking about for years
• 8:57
  and years or whatever she ends up, seeing the video whatever
• 9:02
  and reaches out to them. And it's kind of like yo, I
• 9:05
  liked what you saw and I recognize your username because
• 9:08
  you know he kind of comments and stuff, whatever a lot of her
• 9:10
  social media post, whatever and some of us do and she's like yo
• 9:15
  hey would you like to come in work with me on making a
• 9:20
  animation for a music video that I got going on for one of my
• 9:23
  songs? And so it seems like A match
• 9:26
  made in heaven, this guy's dreams of finally.
• 9:28
  Things are finally starting to fall in line, and then they go
• 9:33
  to link up, he's on the phone. And he's like, yo, I'm here at
• 9:39
  the spot where you at and he hears the echo coming from
• 9:42
  person next to me, he turns, and it's the girl that told him off
• 9:47
  at the bar, some days ago, whatever, or months back, or
• 9:52
  whatever. And she's happy to meet him,
• 9:55
  whatever. And It is kind of where this
• 9:57
  first chapter kind of comes to an end and so yeah.
• 10:03
  So I am very intrigued by this. Like I said, I did not expect us
• 10:08
  to get kind of like a time-lapse of like his early years and then
• 10:13
  now fast forward several years and he's in college.
• 10:16
  He's a young adults and stuff, whatever.
• 10:18
  Now he's in this life-changing situation and I don't know, it
• 10:22
  just really spoke to me because like like Those you're watching
• 10:26
  the video version, the the this one panel here with like this
• 10:29
  whale, and these butterflies, and stuff forever, just like
• 10:33
  really grasped me when I was scrolling through whatever.
• 10:35
  And this is kind of where he was kind of, like, started to, like,
• 10:37
  find his passion again for drawing and stuff.
• 10:40
  But, like I said, this this reading there's like said, kind
• 10:46
  of gave me some reflection myself because I've also gone
• 10:49
  through moments of burnout, Mama's have self-doubt and
• 10:53
  stuffed, where I might man. Maybe I really don't really
• 10:55
  shouldn't. During this whatever or kind of
• 10:58
  just lost a passion for something and saying our main
• 11:02
  character go through several years of, you know, all this
• 11:06
  wild goose, chase doing something that he was kind of
• 11:08
  peer pressured, invite some friends to do instead of doing
• 11:13
  what he was wanting to do. Whatever it was just just just
• 11:17
  very intriguing to see. And like I said kind of gives me
• 11:19
  hope. Of course I maybe next chapter,
• 11:22
  this all falls apart and you're like Rob that thing we talked
• 11:25
  about. Last week was kind of it ain't
• 11:28
  it no more thou was a good first child to break afterwards.
• 11:31
  It was but you know, hey, we're here to give stuff a chance
• 11:36
  because every now and then you got to kind of take a leak on
• 11:39
  these new series and stuff for that because if nobody takes a
• 11:42
  shot at them, then nothing will survive.
• 11:46
  So every now and then you got to be that brave soul to step out
• 11:49
  on faith and to see how things go with everybody.
• 11:55
  But yeah, this is what And then I feel like my have what I call
• 11:59
  the blue period effect to where it is, as it could potentially
• 12:03
  be a series for people who are creators of any sort of any type
• 12:09
  of artist and this might maybe rekindle some passion that
• 12:14
  somebody or kind of maybe give somebody better perspective or
• 12:18
  make them realize their okay. They've been in a in a creative
• 12:22
  rut for a while and that's kind of maybe like wakes them up and
• 12:25
  shake some loose. Yes, but we'll see where things
• 12:28
  go. But um, but yea like I said like
• 12:30
  the the orange stuff in this look really solid.
• 12:35
  This seems to potentially be the first series from this Arthur
• 12:39
  because they had no previous at least nothing that I could find
• 12:42
  so far. No previous notes.
• 12:44
  As far as though they were the assistant on this or that or
• 12:47
  whatever. So we'll see.
• 12:51
  You know, like I said I'm on my hope that I could check back in
• 12:55
  maybe in a few weeks. So maybe a month or so.
• 12:57
  After we've gotten a handful more chapters to kind of see how
• 13:01
  this thing kind of shakes out. But for now being motion might
• 13:04
  be one to potentially put on your radar.
• 13:08
  So with that being said, I think I'm a wrap it up there.
• 13:12
  Y'all let me know which I thought if y'all have read
• 13:14
  beaten, this first chapter of being motion, let me know what
• 13:18
  you think. And if you all feel the same as
• 13:20
  I do that there might be something here or am I calling
• 13:23
  it too early? So but regardless Thank you all
