Manga Is More Popular Than Ever, And Marvel Is Capitalizing On It (screenrant.com)

(quella che segue è solo un estratto)

Quote

VIZ Media has cited sales of My Hero Academia and Demon Slayer as examples of high demand, with My Hero Academia having nine million copies in print with one million copies of just Volume One. Demon Slayer has over four million copies in print. Both have been on national bestselling lists. Chainsaw Man Volume Four outpaced anticipated sales, similarly selling more copies than some best-selling novels. Now, the company will begin selling manga under a new program: VIZ Originals. Under this heading, VIZ will develop manga, anime, films, and merchandise developed by local creators.

Already there are two original series that are being developed as VIZ Originals: World Piece and Devil's Candy. They will release this summer. World Piece is a sci-fi adventure created by Josh Tierney and Agroshka. Devil's Candy is a supernatural high school comedy created by REM and Bikkuri, which was originally developed as a webcomic. With this new shift adding a different operation to VIZ's broader mantle, fans will be able to enjoy stories faster. Normally, fans have to wait for manga like Chainsaw Man and Dragon Ball Super to debut in Japan, then be licensed and translated before being put on the overseas market. This causes a significant delay between experiencing the stories fans love worldwide, which can even lead to spoilers occurring long before North American fans get the chance to catch up.As part of the partnership with Marvel, VIZ Media will be releasing volumes of Marvel Meow and Deadpool: Samurai! in the future. Chewie - Captain Marvel's Cat - will be going up against Thanos, Spider-Man, Galactus, Iron Man, and Deadpool, among other Marvel characters, causing flerken feline mayhem. Deadpool will be taking another trip to feudal Japan to fight in samurai battles in an ongoing series following fan demand for more after the one-shot of the same title was released. This series, written by Sanshirou Kasama with art by Hikaru Uesugi, will be translated into English. These are just the first of probably many titles to come from Marvel's partnership with VIZ Media. The future of manga seems to be bright, which isn't surprising considering how much growth the medium has had over the last several decades, and Marvel is going to be helping to drive it towards further success.

Abbiamo un editore che ha da un lato dichiara che ha una cosa in stampa con 4 milioni di copie. E un'altra che ne ha venduto 1 milione (sempre di un numero).

Eppero' l'editore fa un esempio e un pregio non di quello che avendo in stampa 4 millioni di copie, ma di quello che ne ha venduto un quarto.

Picce' l'editore deve spingere MHA oltre ogni delirante possibilita', e crearne a tutti i costi un caso editoriale dove NON c'e', mentre un'altra serie come Demon Slayer e' li' che vende ed ha avuto un exploit drammatico al cinema specie negli USA, MA l'editore non vuole spingerlo.

Con piu' di un dubbio sul fatto che non abbia idea del perche' abbia avuto successo, specie senza uno straccio di supporto.

Questa cosa mi da' da pensare e mi preoccupa.

Perche' e' parte della forma mentis dell'"editoria" italiana.

non sarebbe nemmeno una novità perchè per il passato alcuni autori giapponesi hanno realizzato delle storie per questo o per quell'altro editore (tipo asamiya e nihei tra i più citati).

era il 2003
