YAKKIN Ushijima-kun" launches a YouTube manga channel! Transmitting the Dark Side of Society in a New Form

The manga "YAKKIN Ushijima-kun" will be developed into a YouTube manga video. The YouTube channel will open today, August 4, 2021, at 19:00.

The dark hero manga "Yami Kane Ushijima-kun" has been a hit since its serialization began in 2004, selling a total of 18 million copies and becoming the subject of four blockbuster movies. The manga, which is still talked about as a masterpiece that exposes the truth about Japanese society, will finally appear on YouTube at 19:00 on August 4, 2012.

Two years have passed since the end of the 15-year long serialization, and instead of improving, Japanese society seems to be in a state of increasing chaos. The world depicted in the series, including "inequality," "poverty," and "defrauding," may in fact become more realistic now, in 2021.

The "Fuzoku-kun" version depicts the way of life of women who pay off their debts while working in the sex industry, the "Yamikin-kun" version depicts the reality of the poverty business in which people in a weak position are further exploited, the "Salaryman-kun" version depicts a man who finds his own place while suffering from mental illness from being caught between his company and family, and the "Internet business," the alchemy of our time. The "Yakuza-kun" version depicts an untouchable underworld where overwhelming violence and great evil are mixed together. The "cry of the souls" of people living at the bottom of modern society will be heard once again.

The "YouTube Manga Video," a new form of expression, is back!
In recent years, "manga videos" have become one of the most popular genres on YouTube. Channels with more than 1 million subscribers are appearing one after another. In this context, "YAKKIN Ushijima-kun," which has been called "the best educational material for studying society," is being developed as a YouTube manga video that meets the needs of the times, in order to reach a wider generation.

The "YAKKIN USHIJIMA-KUN" has a stimulating and addictive style that matches the YouTube audience: the desire for knowledge satisfied by learning about the underworld, the entertainment value of the many unique villains, and the sexy scenes featuring women who sell their bodies for work. ...... The "YAKKIN USHIJIMA-KUN" is stimulating and addictive, so it seems to match the YouTube viewership.

If it comes down to "take or be taken, I choose to take," as Kaoru Ushijima famously said, will he be able to take many users?

■Operated by Keiken Content, the popular "Human Bug University" YouTube channel with over 1 million users.
The channel is operated by K-Contents, which runs the very popular YouTube channel "Human Bug University," which depicts a dark world that no one tells you about.
Since "YAKKIN Ushijima-kun" also depicts the realities of people in a corner, it seems to be a perfect match. What is the world created by darkness x darkness...?
It is likely to be a masterpiece that brings out the best of the original work's appeal.

Other people's misfortune is the taste of honey. ...... There is no need to hide your true feelings of seeing scary things. Let's wait with excitement to see what kind of disastrous development it will be.
