Kus put out the cover page for their upcoming compilation of authors from Japan that will be coming out at the end of August, 2018. I heard about this a bit ago since I know some people that are going to be featured in it, but the final list is better than I expected. This is a really great look at not only older veterans of non-mainstream manga from magazines like garo and ax, but also a number of new authors that have established themselves via illustration, design, and doujinshi/self-published comics.

Highly recommended if you’re interested in the alternative or indie manga as I have no doubts this will serve as a great reference for their scenes in the 10′s ~ 20′s, just like secret comics japan (rip shiratori) or comics underground japan was for their respective eras. Multiple award winners and cult favorites in here.

Selected stills from the underrated 2002 Olivier Assayas film Demonlover. I was originally drawn to this movie by its peculiar synopsis about a dangerous media corporation attempting to acquire a Japanese hentai production company, who, with the corporation’s financing, will be able to produce lifelike, 3D animated pornography for sale in the West. While the company attempts to acquire the US hentai distributor Demonlover, the protagonist discovers that Demonlover is a front for a live-streamed torture website called the Hell Fire Club. I really like it for how it exaggerates the web browsing experience as something far more immersive and hallucinatory than the actual period technology would allow. I enjoyed the movie Fear Dot Com for this reason; artists of this era were coming up with a range of interesting aesthetic decisions for how to visually represent the experience of being online. Take Hackers, for example: the filmmakers favoured kinetic editing of Kung-fu fighting and flybys over a motherboard city instead of the (admittedly) banal and boring experience that compromising computer networks must really be. The exaggerated, speculative Internet of the Hell Fire Club is interesting for how it preempts the red room myths (streamable torture sites) that have become synonymous with the “deep web”. I even noticed that the kid at the end who uses his Dad’s credit card to buy a Hell Fire Club subscription registers the account with a Freenet address.
