It doesn't matter if the storyline sucks. MCU and superhero movies and TV shows are exploding but you don't see their comic sales climbing

@@jjsamuelgunn1136 not necessarily talking about story, I’m just saying the formula of having an adaptation that coincides with a comic story. Generally the sales of a manga go up after it recieved an anime adaptation.

@@jequangold7098 Yeah, Marvel is definitely not worrying about that with how much they mix and match and burrow from popular and obscure runs of stuff. You need god damn comic historians just to find what there using as a loose baseline sometimes

I hard agree with you on this. Cause even though I think you definitely did get some hamfisted messages put into comics, I think you got quite alot of stories that handled those messages with tact and left your audience wondering with food for thought then just telling them what is right or wrong. As for diversity It honestly feels like they parade around minorities and talk a bunch about diversity and inclusion and when a lot of those measures are just race swapping or changing the sexuality or gender of a character. It's honestly made me have a lot of appreciation for minority characters that are well done like cyborg, static and pretty most of the Owl House cast. Cause they feel like people I can route for.

@Otaku Animes oops

I mean almost all the mangas have one thing in common, one author-one vision till the end

Even in Superhero genre which western is good at manga beat them in sales

likely because they have very few people creating the same story/character. if for example one piece has something that seems out of nowhere seems to be hinted at previously while if something in say spiderman comes out of nowhere it's probably this months new writer just wanting to do something "surprising"

The changes were jarring! More so when I did not like one of the artists at all!! Some characters felt like other people just from their facial expressions, I had trouble associating what the character had went through with the emotional outburst on the next volume because his face looked like shit

Yeah the artists changing was probably one of my main issues with it.

one piece does :D

I slightly brought it up. You bring up a point I didn't think of as well. The MCU for example aren't really adaptations. Very loose ones for some of the more popular storylines. (Sometimes for the worse - Anything with the Hulk. Sometimes the better - Civil War.)

Marvel and D.C. have more under their labels. They'll just never give them the same amount of promotion as superheros. That's their biggest fault.

Sandman/ doctor who

@@wetdon591 yep I agree, you’d think huge companies like DC and Marvel would have more ideas than the super hero genre

Watchmen and Ultimate Spider-man are closest examples, I can think of Superhero comics storires being like the Manga stories.

@@nnnnmhughuuhhjiijj9457 I can Agree with the best of comics like The long Halloween by joeseph Loeb and Tim Sale (rest in Piece Tim you are the best artist) And Also Scott Pilgrim for how it was a Video game version of Boy meets girl story, I've really loved The famous DC comics of batman like the Dark Knight Returns, and the New 52 story line by Scott Snyder and Greg capullao like the Court of Owls to Batman Bloom...

definitely

Manga has always been better

Manga has always been better than Comics. Mainstreamers just noticed it recently.

Manga is not at its peak of popularity. it reached its peak back in the 1990s. When shounen Jump manga sold more manga in a week than DC and Marvel did in a year. Since then manga really hasn't blown up like it did when it was the 90s. There is more competition out now. Indie comics, The boys, invincible, MCU, DCEU, smart phones, manwha (webtoons),etc. If anything western comics are becoming irrelevant and being replaced by manga, manga isn't at its peak, its just taking away western comic audiences.

As far as unique goes, if this was 90s and maybe early 2000, I agree, but recently their been a lot of sammness

Just read the visual novel. Mind you it goes beyond just fate. Don't forget the Tsukihime franchise, Kara no Kyoukai, and Mahoutsukai no Yoru.

@@201bio so, Nasuverse.... Lol...

@@sqfath7490 Aye. The Fate universe is only one (although the largest) part of the wider clusterF that is the Nasuverse. I’m not even sure how the Tsukihime and Mahoyo remakes fit into the canon…

@@201bio Bruh, what's even outside of Fate-verse? Kara No Kyoukai? Tuskihime?

@@nnnnmhughuuhhjiijj9457 Yes, those, Mahoyo, and a bunch of minor things like angel notes and whatnot.

It woudnt work the whole point of the show is about the theme of television but a spin off comic could maybe a satire comic on heroes and super heroe universe

@@carlacarrero4975 what if they do a mini comic for cards ?

@@nicholassims9837 that could work a satire or Pokemon parody would be awesome

Dope.

mangakas are paid between 90-135 dollars per page, manga are usually 20 pages so the amount of money they get is at least 20x95=1.900 dollars per chapter (they release 1 per month or 1 per week), not to mention the royalties the comic writers are treated like gods only in the fact that they never finish the issue in time they are always late and they dont get fired

are you frustrated?

One Piece: Wano Country.

slice of life is key thing what manga make it special

My channel was hacked for a few days recently and the videos were made private. So all the comments were taken when I took control again.

@@adamshadow9881 oh man that sucks :/ I'm glad you got it back tho

"I'd say the poltics angel is about wether or not there's nuance or if it directly tries to preach to you. Lots of people seem to confuse this with not wanting politics." It's fundamentally PROPAGANDA because it IS political agenda masquerading as story or comic etc. That is also why people hate it so much, the same way that regimes such as communism or 3rd reik also produced blatant propaganda and ruined the culture of those times and nations. In point of fact, stories don't have to have politics in the same way they don't have to have religion or any other given topic. Eg a Manga could be just about the experience of an adventure to fire the imagination of a young child to entertain them. The nuance angle is an attempt to convince that ALL cultural mediums MUST have politics in the same fallacy that in an ultra-orthodox nation of some religion, ALL/EVERYTHING MUST be about that religion which is in fact obsession + madness. Yes if a story is doing politics, then that is abstracted to create either: Allegory (Animal Farm), Satire (Karmen America Volume 1) or Polemic (Battle Royale (more social commentary than politics but it will do). If for example comic writers wanted to do a gay superhero they could invent a new person but instead they wanted to use Superman and then insert their "The Message" (The drinker's coinage with echoing) which is then turning the comic into delivery platform for propaganda. This is an example only of the description. I'm sure a gay comic character can be done very well eg in Manga or some other source.

Why?

Manga is doing better than comics in my country as well. You can tell just by looking at the size of the manga section compared to the comic books. Manga used to have about 8 shelves similar to comics but now manga has 14 shelves and comics like not even a full shelf. They replaced the comic books with anime figures and more manga.

What genre do you like?

@@adamshadow9881 I like action , horror, science fiction.

@@danielnel4467 OK. All Action - Sakamoto Days or Chainsaw Man. Pure Horror - Pretty much anything by Junji Ito or Blood on The Tracks. (Psychological Horror). Science Fiction - Dr. Stone or Pluto. And the rest here is a mix of those genres: Jujustu Kaisen. Dorohedoro. Dandadan. Parasyte. Ultraman. And most of these have an anime, so you watch the first few episodes or so to get feel of the series before you dive deeper in the manga. And in terms manga, the ones that are finished are - Dr. Stone. Parasyte. Dorohedoro, Pluto, and Chainsaw Man. (Technically.) Happy Reading.

@@adamshadow9881 Awesome thanks very much for the recommendations🤙 ill check some of these out and the anime's as well.

@@danielnel4467If yuo still havent checked out DanDaDan I second the recommendation

Lots of slice of life or comedy manga is like that, not many action/adventure manga stay episodic for long even if they have that for a while

@@baileythewitchofvoid8784 But is there any that follows a kin to Spongebob or Simpdons and have no continuity in which a character can die at the end but is back with explain reason.

@@nicholassims9837 Yeah stuff like Osomatsu kun or that vocaloid manga were about as episodic as American cartoons

@@baileythewitchofvoid8784 how come some anime has weird words while others have normal words like Dragonball and Sailor moon,?

@@nicholassims9837 Some titles are translated to English some are kept in Japanese

Penders had good ideas but bad execution.

Ian Flynn tends to fall into loops.

@@adamdenardis5438 Explain. What are some of Flynn's loops?

Yaoi has better art? Have you seen how wack yaoi anatomy is at times? There's a reason the term yaoi hands exist

What do you like then? In terms of genre.

@@adamshadow9881 fantasy / mythical

I would recommend One Piece, but that's a daunting task for newcomers. So instead, I say maybe something like Radiant would be a story you would enjoy. Very whimsical and fantasy like. As well with having many bits and pieces of European mythical tales and creatures as a part of story, lore, locations, and characters. And not too many chapters or volumes too worry about. I know it sounds like shameless plugging, but the last video I made was a comprehensive guide and review on Radiant. So check that out for more details. If you're looking for a little bit more action, but still keeping the mythical element to it. Record of Ragnork is a massive tournament of Mythical Gods and Well-Known Figures in history, battling for survival. Black Clover would a be mix of the two. Leaning more for action. Berserk is the father of Dark Fantasy manga. You could check that out. If that's too extreme or edgy for your liking, Claymore, a sister like series, is very similar, but not as extreme. Dorohedoro is a rather bizarre take on the idea of fantasy. Being a bit more grimmer and unpredictable. That's just the first five that come to mind, check those out if you haven't heard of them before.

@@adamshadow9881 thank you so much :)

Blade of the immortal

You technically don't have to if you don't want to own it.

you can sure but it’s not really supporting anyone

Shounen Devil.

💀💀💀💀

You got me.

@@adamshadow9881 Yeah I hope my comment didn’t came out as rude

@@thefvguy5648 Nah, you're fine. I can agree that the video does favor towards manga. Mostly from the fact, that's kinda what I was going for, hence the title. Though, I'm not saying that comics outright suck. I grew up with reading over 200-300 issues of different series. And I love some of the stories I've read from then to now. (Every Sonic Comic, a lot of Batman stories, TMNT IDW, Power Rangers, Bone, I Hate Fairyland, just to name a few.) It's just that for the common person and even some of my friends who are admittedly more well versed than me in comics. They would prefer manga over comics 80% of the time.
