“why is manga outselling american comics in lgbt spaces, despite a push for diversity?” cus i can read dozens of volumes of textual gay stories in manga and DC takes seven years to release four pages of some random white boy smiling at another w the chemistry of a wooden plank

If your character design course doesn’t talk abt which racial caricatures to avoid, then you’re failing your students. If your animation course doesn’t cover minstrelsy, then you’re failing your students. It’s not enough to be just “not racist”, we need to be anti-racist.

Cannot think of a better example to show that prioritizing fictional character “representation” in the mainstream truly ain’t shit. Capitalism will always be compliant with whatever is profitable, regardless of morals.

1. This is an incorrect headline. it’s describing the direct market comic industry not graphic novels, and the data excludes online metrics (its using units sold). Their numbers of 15mil vs 10mil “total” is completely incorrect.

Hi you should be asking for longer deadlines but also remember that this also falls under the umbrella of “what an agent does”. It’s our responsibility to uphold your choices and advocate for you. The responsibility of the artist is to draw the book, we try to make it easier.

As someone who adores manga and owes most of my creative life to it: We need to reassess the manga magazine system. it is an abusive labor practice that banks on exposure and overwork to martyr it’s creator over a blockbuster story.
No, no, hell no, holy sh*t no, NO.
The “Shonen Jump System” is a prime example of what’s wrong in creative industries, and especially manga. NO ONE should be burning themselves out and sacrificing their health because “I could be dropped at any moment if I’m not popular.”

There’s tons of reasons for why it’s important to credit an artist, even for a commercial job like a book cover, but abstractly it hits on art’s modern crisis of separating work from creator. It deprives both the audience and maker the tools to continue a visual conversation.
