I also read Strawberry Love, which is a josei manga-flavored love story about a stoic man and a city girl who ends up helping at her family’s strawberry farm when her grandfather is hospitalized. Lots of unnecessary misunderstandings, but w/o them, this story would be v. short 😅

Reading this super humble, 'i hope you like my manga' statement in My Hero Academia vol. 1 is SO STRANGE when you know that this young man has NO IDEA that what he's drawing now after having 2 series end prematurely is going to be a HUGE hit. https://t.co/A9XhRqzczv

I didn't think to say it during our My Hero Academia episode of - but is this manga attempt to draw an 'American superhero' kind of like when US how-to-draw-manga books try to draw "manga girls" and it looks... like this?

Im not saying that it’s impossible. In recent years, we got Rose of Versailles from , Kamen Rider and Devil Man from & Fist of the North Star & Jojo’s from . Given how well manga is doing now, more risk-taking is possible. It’s just not available yet.

Yeah. It’s a most wanted manga license but it’s a long, older series. Maybe someday in English, but it’s available in French from Glenat

Michael Gombos / “Maybe what we’re seeing is a case where Asian content creators are doing new, different things with a medium that originated in US & doing it better.” e.g. zombie stories told in non-gun cultures like Last Train to Busan & I Am a Hero

“How do we explain the explosive growth in manga readership? I think a lot of it is American comics refugees. The best Superman story out there now? It’s One Punch Man, sorry!” - Michael Gombos

Similar sentiments from the rep from “anime is not a genre - it’s a medium for telling stories. Within this medium, there’s all kinds of different ways to tell different stories.”
