How can anyone find his self indulgent wankery and constant whining within his works engaging...

The first one who is open about it at least

>–You would rather be a cute girl than a handsome man?

>Asano: Let’s say there’s this really cute girl. Let’s say I fall in love with her and we start dating. The thing is, I absolutely would not find fulfilment in that. And the reason for that is, I wouldn’t want to make that girl mine — I would want to become her.

>they were dedicated to painting life in the worst possible way without a single shine of optimism
Because that's exactly how life is you retarded normalfaggot

Legend of the Strongest Man Kurosawa does a better job at covering depression than anything this faggot has ever written.

Not true. Without hope everyone here would just kill themselves

I thought the obnoxious glasses girl in PunPun was his self-insert. Sachi or something?

They both are

I just find Punpun and it's characters to all be relatable to some degree. I feel like Asano's work really shines when he has less dramatic moments of melancholy that are more down to earth. Him making all of his main characters depressed dulls his range of storytelling a lot though.

The difference is that I'm not publishing works and charging people to view my complaints
