I haven’t read a manga or comic book, but all I know is that anime adaptations of manga far surpass the equivalent for comic books unless it’s a Marvel movie…DBZ, Yu Yu Hakusho, JJK, AOT, etc With some of these comic books, I’ve heard that there’s numerous different universes or versions of the characters, and things seem to get so convoluted, it’s like, how do u even keep track? at least with the Marvel movies, u don’t need to know anything about what’s been written in a comic…before I watched my 1st Marvel movie, the only Marvel characters I knew or had even heard of were the Hulk, Spider-man, and Wolverine
Honestly Manga is a bit more R rated than comics You can see some T&A but most importantly more BLOOD AND VIOLENCE Rocket River
Some of the manga out there is NC-17 and not just for sexual situations. It’s -very- adult in ways that most comics can’t get away with. The only comic I can think of that is close to adult manga is Alan Moore’s Neonomicon miniseries.
I cooled off new manga for awhile. Too much t&a + waifu merchandising to a predictable formula (harems are a coin toss). Can't recommend or share 90% of the more interesting ones, and most don't even finish anyways because it's mostly a money grab for funneling in more promotional pipelines. Still catch a good series here and there, but it needs a shot in its veins.
I imagine that happened sometime between Japanese surnames covering the entire closing credits of mid-week cartoons in the '80s, and Salior Moon syndication on KTXH 20 in '96, same year as Seinfeld reruns started.
Usually consumers choose what product they feel is better MANGA is Popeyes and DC/Marvel is McDonald’s chicken The whole ordeal was laid out by ICv2 as the organization recently reported on manga's new sales record in North America. The industry racked up nearly $250 million USD in 2020 which blows the previous record from 2007 out of the water. Of course, these sales are great for publishers, but a slew of issues are keeping them from re-stocking hit manga titles.
