Description
Abstract
El siguiente artículo analiza y define una distinción de estilos de dibujo realista en el manga a principios de los años ochenta, en base a una comparativa de los estilos de dibujo de los mangaka Ikegami Ryōichi y Ōtomo Katsuhiro. Tras el análisis de ambos estilos, se proponen dos categorías estilísticas — denominadas como realismo idealista - físico y realismo objetivo - óptico — para definir ambas vías de realismo formal al manga. Sus principales diferencias residen en el aspecto de sus trazos, volúmenes, sombras y rasgos faciales, entre otros aspectos que denotan diversas técnicas de dibujo como también concepciones diferentes de “realismo”: una más idealizada y artística, mientras que otra es más naturalista y fotográfica.
La investigación también valida ambas categorías como “estilos" de dibujo generalmente diferenciados, tanto contrastándolos con sus precedentes históricos — de la historia del manga japonés y otro tipo de referentes — como también observando la influencia de ambos estilos en dibujantes de manga posteriores. En este sentido, proponemos que la vía idealista-física queda congregada principalmente en el ámbito del manga adulto masculino, mientras que la vía objetiva - óptica adquiere una continuidad más ecléctica, combinándose con los modos de expresión moe o el desarrollo del anime japonés.
Abstract: The following article analyzes and defines a distinction between realistic drawing styles in manga during the early eighties, based on a comparison between the drawing styles of mangaka Ikegami Ryōichi and Ōtomo Katsuhiro. After the analysis of both styles, two stylistic categories are proposed — called idealistic - physical realism and objective - optical realism — to define both paths of formal realism within manga. Its main differences lie in the shape of its strokes, volumes, shadows and facial features, among other aspects that denote various drawing techniques as well as different conceptions of "realism": a more idealized and artistic one, while the another one is more naturalistic and photographic. The research also validates both categories as generally differentiated drawing "styles", both contrasting them with their historical precedents — from contemporary Japanese manga history and other kinds of referents — and also observing the influence of both styles on later manga cartoonists. In this sense, we propose that the idealistic - physical path is mainly congregated within the field of adult male manga, while the objective - optical path acquires a more eclectic continuity, combining with moe expression modes or the development of Japanese anime.
