Ume is working on 2 series. One is quarterly with ~15 pages per chapter and one is monthly in theory but actually more like quarterly or less in practice with ~5 pages per chapter. I don't know how she makes enough money to live.
Brandon Thompson
>sells merch of himself
Fucking kek
Thomas Murphy
Madoka royalties will keep a roof over Ume’s head and mikans on her kotatsu until she dies, everything else is just gravy.
Lincoln Hill
Naruto guy, although he is a good example of why editors are needed.
Also back when MIA almost got the axe Tsucc was working with his editor to save it and Nanachi arc was the end result.
Liam Gonzalez
Kurumada is the owner of his IPs and he spent most of his youth feuding with Shueisha. In fact Saint Seiya Final Edition is being published by Akita Shoten as a final fuck you to Shueisha
Austin Harris
This thread makes me think of Maeda and Kumeta making insane shit "because fuck you".
Isaiah Ward
>be newbie mangaka
>stop editor for trying to force changes into his manga
>now writes without any editor at all
He must really hate people meddling his stories

What makes you think the character designer gets royalties? That's usually just work for hire.
Owen Gutierrez
It came to me in a dream
Juan Phillips
He's still working for Shueisha as well though, Otokozaka is on Weekly Playboy's online companion.
The biggest failure of his editor(s) was not telling him to cut the shit with his workaholism and take a break.

Current Oda

>Kumeta
Behold!
David Bell
Isn't his editor supposedly extremely based? Like, i have read multiple times that parts of made in abyss were originally milder but his editor told him to make them gorier/wilder
James Murphy
Only Kumeta could do something as insane as release an extra for his former assistant's series in a magazine he wasn't serialized in at the time.
Blake Richardson
I'd buy it. Where to buy it?
Luis Davis
It'd be worth wearing just to see people's reactions.
Luis Fisher
I'd say UQ Holder Akamatsu definitely just stopped listening to his editor. There's no way people looking to keep their manga going have their protagonist fuck a chick for like 20 pages straight for three chapters in a row.

Whenever they want
David Watson
The only person he listens to is his wife.
Cooper Myers
*refuses to work*
*shits pants*
*keeps crown of king of the genre*
Nothing personel.
Ryan Lewis
I often wonder the same about shoujo mangaka who have a single monthly manga. Some even have assistants.
I can only suppose the merchandise makes them a lot of money.
Hunter Phillips
Why does Tsukushi get an acrylic exactly? It just seems somewhat random especially for someone who is only known for one manga
