    I didn't get how the structure fit the example yonkoma until I rewatched it.
    At first, I thought panel three was just more buildup, of the situation in previous panels (they are going to duel). I didn't get why it was a twist. But the twist is the petals becoming obnoxious and blocking dialogue. That sets up the fourth panel.
    My God, I finally get kishotenketsu now.

    this was a great episode!
    I see that Ki-sho-Ten-ketsu can also be applied to a long story, now if that story is divided into separate volumes, can Ki-sho-Ten-ketsu be applied to each volume at the same time?
    thanks a for the excellent job that you do.

      That's a really good point you have there!
      Yes, applying "Ki-Sho-Ten-Ketsu" divisions is extremely important, especially as "Tankobon" separate volumes.
      We said the key is in "Teasing" the readers, building up anticipation for Cliffhanger effect that actually work.
      For a manga to survive, it's critical that the readers always want more, so much so that they wait for the next volume.
      And "Ki-Sho-Ten-Ketsu" is the best way to help us find the way.
      Many creators throw-in some shocking event right at the final page, in a hope to create a "Cliffhanger" ending.
      In reality that never works, because random events are just that, random events.
      Good cliffhanger makes readers go "Wow!"
      Non-working cliffhanger makes readers go "Wtf?"
      So how do we make our dear readers "Wow I want more!" at the end of a 4koma/Page/Chapter/volume/Season ?
      Please look forward to more episodes on this topic! 😁

    I wasn't aware of how important Ketsu really is. I thought of it more like an outro, but here it's made clear, that's really a resolution. I thought the climax (Ten) would have to be the most interesting part, plot-wise, but if you really look at it, it's actually Ketsu which is more important, since it's the solution of the puzzle. So, when the reader reads the climax, he/she actually doesn't even really know what is going on yet. It's basically more like a part where you just put the most flashy images, but not necessarily the most interesting information of the plot.

    • @smac-thesilentmangaauditio3749
      @smac-thesilentmangaauditio3749  Před 8 lety +14

      1. Imagine it as SILENT MANGA. (Yes, even scenes with dialogues)
      2. Once you really shown EMOTIONS without dialogues, make them say THE CONTRARY.
      A soldier boy, is reunited by his friends after fighting alone.
      His inner voice would say "Oh great now that you are all with me", but what if, while keeping the happy face and he says "You idiots are always late!!!" - is the scene more memorable?
      A girl is waiting her boyfriend on her birthday. He doesn't turn up. She's worried, worried, many thoughts around her mind,
      He finally turns up, all muddy and scratches all around, it seems he risked himself to obtain the rare flower that the girl likes.
      The girl is full of happiness, that he finally turned up - But way past the promised time.
      Instead of - "Oh I'm happy but you shouldn't have risked yourself for just a petty present that is flower. Oh by the way it's not nice turning up late" -
      She says "...baka!"
      Get the picture? The key is always in EMOTIONS ;)
      SILENT MANGA is probably the toughest form of manga expression.You can't cheat but have to show all emotions by drawing only.
      and that is why you improve so much, by just keep on making it!
      Try it next time you feel your panel needs enhancing. It's always harder but once you get it, so will the readers :)
      We sure will try to demonstrate more in coming episodes!

    Another great video, and again giving some of the history, thank you very much!
    I wanted to know if there is a chance to submit storyboards (names) to you for feedback? (not relating to the Slent Manga Audition contest)
    Even if not, I appreciate you sharing knowledge with everyone!
    Also I wander in relation to this video, should I read something like "Azumanga Daioh" to get a better understanding of the "Ki-Sho-Ten-Ketsu" feeling? (Azumanga Daioh is a 4 volume series consisting of almost only 4koma)
    Looking forward to next week :]

      Thank you for the compliments! I'm afraid we do not accept any Manga for review/proposal outside of SILENT MANGA AUDITION® But I recommend showing it to your friends, families, passers-by... That's how all upcoming creators improve themselves :) ( We can never emphasise enough the importance of befriending your readers )
      Many of SMA winners have been doing that before winning an award ;)
      Ah Azumanga! Another brilliant example of 4-koma format, even expanding the format a little with creative use of "Ma", and "Ketsu(Conclusion), being a Ki(Introduction) of the next set (Making a chain of 4-koma, that is actually one long story)."
      Not only technically brilliant, it's also a fantastic read :) I do recommend reading it if you have an opportunity!

    Do you guys know if there has ever been any successful variations on this technique? though i understand one must fully understand this before trying to go outside of the box.

    • @smac-thesilentmangaauditio3749
      @smac-thesilentmangaauditio3749  Před 8 lety

      Yes! and there are many. Many 4-panel manga these days, often connects the the set of 4 panels to the next set, effectively making 8-16 or even 32-64 panel manga, with each 4 panels being a complete story in itself, joining to form a much longer story.
      The magazine we showed "Manga-time Kirara" by Houbunsha is full of brilliant examples of that, as well as Yotsubato, Azumanga... many popular manga uses the "extended-4koma" to great effect.
      In Tanko-Bon, sometimes they insert segments in the style of more normal story manga too. The creators didn't choose 4 panel style because it's easy, instead they cleverly use that repetition of 4 panels like the "4 on the bar" beats of dance music, letting readers experience great new ideas in comfort.
      For quirky joys "Berlin wa Kane"
      tap.akitashoten.co.jp/comics/berlin/1
      is the latest favourite of mine. Dubbed "5-Koma manga" by some, it uses the "story title" as hidden punch line, with some extremely creative uses of "Breaking out of the norm" effects.
      Highly recommended if you read Japanese ;)

      There really is so much more to "Ki-Show-Ten-Ketsu" than just 4 part divisions.
      K-S-T-K, connecting, adjoining, intertwining, small and large...
      It's a bit hard to explain, but if you start small, the most basic form, it won't be long before you realise how much creative potential is there.
      Sorry my answers may be vague! Hope you enjoy creating KSTK in your story :)

    How do you apply kishotenketsu to a manga that’s multiple pages long?

    • @rindenauge3426
      @rindenauge3426 Před 21 dnem

      By describing more complex scenes than in a 4Koma manga. It's basically just a cumulation of multiple ideas which fit to each other and get formed in a Kishotenketsu way.
