>What did Japan do right with manga?
They showed me Kagome's big bare tiddies when I was a young teen.

>What did Japan do right with manga?
The manga we get is the curated shit. We don't have to suffer through the mountains of amateur doujins that flood the japanese shelves

There was never a comic industry in my country. But its cool going to retailers online stores and seeing "erotic and hentai" manga sections replacing all the shitty airport selfhelp books and cricketer biographies.

>What did Japan do right with manga?
A constant stream of a wide variety of adaptations, many of them vey good, to almost every corner of the globe one way or another. Adaptations = people interested in, and eventually buying, your product. That whole "people buy manga more because they stay away from wokeshit!1!1!1!!" take is cope.

Without the surging expanse of anime globally over the last two decades, manga would be obsolete.

They ignored the retards that dont buy manga but whine about content, and have a constant flood of new series/settings instead of constantly rehashing the same 20 or so heros/universes that where popular 50 years ago.

Hollywood.

Marvel was saved by making over priced double tv episodes in needlessly large dark rooms in order to keep he lights on.

>That whole "people buy manga more because they stay away from wokeshit!1!1!1!!" take is cope.
Cope.

Unfortunately, America only gets shonen shit from Japan unlike European countries such as France which get almost everything from Japan, especially shoujo manga. America is apathetic toward shoujo manga.

>How does your country's comic industry survive against the brutal onslaught of manga invasion?
Literally collapsing in the 1970s. Manga brutally killed it and couldn't fully recover since.

>How does your country's comic industry survive
It doesn't. And thats a good thing.

The US Comics market has realistically been dead since the 90s. After Dave Sim popularized self-publishing and image comics popularized smaller publishing houses throughout the 80s and early 90s, Marvel and DC decided to pursue an aggressive strategy of shifting their IP elsewhere and letting the industry die, culminating today in their awful movies.

Philippines mainstream comics industry completely died around 2004 but had been dying since 1970s around when comic illustrators all went to USA for DC and Marvel. It's all manga and american comic books here now. The independent comic creators still try to revive the comics by doing their Comiket rip off but not enough people go there so yeah. It's dead

I have no idea, I've only ever bought one vol of manga in my life.

Why do you want to read shojo?

You love isekai which is slice of life in disguise. Shojo manga is the epitome of slice of life.

No it's not, in the isekai I love all the characters (male and female) are virgins and they're always pure of mind and heart. In shojo there's a lot of sex, dirty thoughts, impurities, and bad men

Be honest, you want to see woman suffer aka being a slave. The virgin isekai torture can't compare to the psychological fight in shojo manga. Shojo manga doesn't need much fan service because female author are so sadistic that you can cum when characters feel hurt.

This picture looks like it comes from days of yore.

I feel like even without manga being a factor the American comic industry would still be in pretty dire straights.
