The first of a three-part series, Black Channel Episode0 is an animated special detailing the titular character Black’s life before becoming a demon and meeting Satoshi. Easiest way I can describe it is like Paradise Lost by John Milton, except the original sin is making prank videos on Youtube. There are literal, actual biblical allegories, in this spinoff especially, and Black is a direct interpretation of Lucifer.

What is Black Channel?

Black Channel is a manga-slash-animated web series, the manga being written and drawn by Kisaichi Satoshi and published by CoroCoro, while the web series belongs to a group of Youtubers under the animation studio Plott. It’s about Black, a demon, and him uncovering the “hidden sides” of people by granting their outlandish desires and turning them into topics for his videos with his trusty camera assistant and often-used guinea pig Satoshi. In my opinion, the web series is more explicitly aimed towards younger audiences, and the manga is far more… shall we say “unhinged”. The Youtube channel itself is here and the manga is available to read here if you’re interested. The Youtube channel uploads multiple times a week and can produce some great stuff at times, though if you want less filler, the manga’s definitely the way to go.

Give Episode0 a shot! I worked really hard on it and want to show it to people. Batch torrent with all three parts coming at a later date (whenever I finish them all). Part 2 coming soon. Maybe next month? No promises.
