In Japan, everything can be rendered in manga. Now some entertaining outfits in the West are picking up on that idea — and putting comics to some surprising uses.

why back in the day we didn't 'download', we had to swim to japan if we wanted fresh anime and that was only if...

I dream of a better tomorrow... where chickens can cross roads and not have their motives questioned.

That reminds me of how some people are also trying to find ways to use video games to educate people, such as this video game focusing on fighting cancer to help cancer patients understand it, and therefore make things like operations or other things to get rid of the cancer not as scary. Then, there are some places where DDR is actually used for physical education.

:[ I picked up "Hamlet" (the manga) since I was reading the original for an analytical paper. Sure I didn't like it that much...but i'd have to say they served Shakespeare no justice by making it.

I've read a comics of The Raven and other of Poe's works, it's not a manga though.

Shakespear life is pretty abnormal right? About how his mother married his uncle, he hates his girlfriend and all those craps.. ?

Well, there was also how Shakespeare married an older woman, because he impregnated her, but later took a fancy to a young man in later years. His beloved only son, Hamlet, died at 11. After that, all references to him were lost for a period of time, which is why it's called the "lost years" of Shakespeare. Some people speculate that perhaps someone else wrote the plays, and Shakespeare was merely a medium to convey the work. Ya, his life was pretty abnormal.

Mmm... homework help links... have you tried sparknotes?

"Illustrated Classics" anyone? Or am I just too old, & nobody else remembers them anymore? 🤣

Back when I was in grade school there was a whole shelf in the school library, full of Shakespeare etc. in comic book form. This is not a new idea, folks.

Nope, never heard of them, although it seems like it would exist. Personally, I like reading Shakespeare because once you understand what he's saying in his plays, the stories aren't bad. Mmm... Twelfth Knight was fun.

But, I guess they did this because manga is so popular right now. Comics back then were like... well, people probably weren't as crazy as they are now about manga.

I think I saw Romeo & Juliet at the bookstore.
The draws weren't bad at all. 😃

I remember glancing at the Illustrated Classics and being profoundly uninterested, actually. I also like reading Shakespeare & was watching the plays even at that age, so seeing it hacked up like they did didn't impress me at all.

I'm sure they're trying to ride on manga's coattails, and if it's well done, then I guess it's fine, but...I have my doubts on the quality. 😔

Methinks you are right. Mmm... if it turned out to be something like Disney's Hercules, then that would be a big problem.

It's already available in Korea. I have a comic version of Hamlet, and there are many illustrated versions of mythology and classic stories.

This feels almost like a profanation...

I doubt there is a way to make such a thing out of a dramatic play without losing all it's charm...in the end, with only the story left to tell.
