Why, back in the day, was it a meme for the longest time that the first episode was more boring than usual/people should skip it? This story is a great representation of the series.

The end.

I had to reduce the size of most images, due to the stupid upload size limit (and then i had to re-do it for some, and then i had to re-do it for the same ones again, because even 3.8mb was too big for some reason). Now they're all under 3.5mb, despite some originals having been 5-15mb.
In later chapters we get some really nice vistas and coloured pages. I'll provide a link for a full resolution pics when appropriate.
Anyways, chapter 2 tomorrow. Have a good day!

>>285732408
Oh, again? Neat.

>>285733042
If I understood OP well, he'll do the volumes that were rereleased.
Maybe he'll do the next rereleases when they come out, too.

>>285733972
Thank you for taking the time.

>>285733042
Yes, i'll just do the re-released ones. In April when book 2 and 3 release, i'll definitely continue posting. And then in August for the ones after that. We got 9 more chapters for now

>Why, back in the day, was it a meme for the longest time that the first episode was more boring than usual/people should skip it? This story is a great representation of the series.
The human ghost angle is a bit unusual compared to the rest of the series i guess. Too anthropomorphic a problem and solution maybe? But it's still a good chapter

Wait no. What i meant was, Mushishi Collector's Edition book 1 was released last November. It includes the original volumes 1 and 2, each 5 chapters long.
Collector's Edition book 2 will release in April, and contain volume 3 and 4. Each 5 chapters.
Collector's Edition book 3 will release in August.
In total there are 10 original volumes, so we will probably get 5 Collector's Edition books in total, seemingly with ~5 months inbetween releases. I'll dump em all

Prioritize cutting the bit depth on the .pngs before anything else.
Most manga page image files you get online are bloated and 4 bit depth (sometimes 2) is all you need to display black, white, and shades of grey.

>>285739629
I'm pretty sure this is meant to be like Meiji period where the literati would know about Western science about stuff like microorganisms, but the general peasantry are still practically feudal.

This is from Paint.NET
This image was taken from an aggregator, and was probably first saved at 8 bit depth.
If I swap to 4 Bit Depth, which is perfectly fine for this type of black and white image, I cut this down from 1.7MB, to 790KB. And there is no visible loss of quality for it, because the file was just bloated with useless data for the type of image it has saved. There are not that many shades of grey used in an average manga illustration, lol.
For images that were saved sloppily at 24 or 32 bit depth this can be more dramatic.

Ok Ginko what's the catch?

Is there a download for all new volumes? MAybe for the old volumes too.

I remember showing anime to my friends.
They didn't know what mushi were so I said mushi are väki.
At the end of episode we all agreed that mushi are just väki.
Väki is even wider spectrum of things that includes animals, humans and higher deities.
To my knowledge mushishi's world doesn't have higher deities even though first episode and chapter appears to point towards mushi-thing.
Why do supernatural beings and gods like to drink and why do they drag humans to drink with them? Just a generl question about mythology.

>>285732408

I've only ever watched the anime, it's exciting to read along!
I'm slightly hesitant to read and follow because if I read this then I'll be wanting to put off my rewatch for a while, otherwise the stories would be too fresh in my mind. Time apart makes the heart grow fonder and all that.

I don't really get it. He was covering his ears before and it didn't do anything, but this time it did because Ginko told him the ah wouldn't like it. Is it just a difference in intent?

He grew the horns the first time he did that, because he heard the "silence" you get from doing that the Ah mushi that his mom left on his ears grew up

The story is probably set some time in the early to mid Meiji era. Most of rural Japan would have looked exactly the same way it had for centuries, but western clothing would have been available to travelers like Ginko, if a bit rare and eccentric. His clothes all look similar to styles that existed in the 19th century, so there's nothing necessarily anachronistic about it.

The page ten mushi. You can't fight it, just post more.
