The manga industry's net worth and what this means

WP:NOTFORUM
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
As I noticed that the manga industry is worth several billion US dollars something unexpected was drawn irreversibly to my attention, and what I found is: that the US dollars can be divided in parts while the Japanese yen is a simple large number. It is 3.6 versus 406. Although money is imaginary the difference is not. Money, money money. Speling12345 (talk) 2:59, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

There is any good explanation of why the hell this article treats like Manga and Anime are the same thing??

There is any good explanation of why this article make it sound like Manga and anime are the same medium???When a big chunk of Anime are straight from light novel and visual novel and manga are also often adapted into Films/Jdramas and Cdramas? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.193.164.126 (talk) 10:43, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

There is no such thing as Manga Style

A Mangaka can draw the way whatever he wants,it can go from Jiro and Taiyō Matsumoto European style to Hoshino Yukinobu and Inoue Takehiko realistic drawings,yet this article made it sounds like there is a set definition of style that a mangaka should draw like. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rafaelrios5964 (talk • contribs) 21:32, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

Return to manga kanji picture

Hi there. Why was the main picture changed? On this article, we need to be impartial about showing an actual picture illustrating some manga. I request for the kanji of manga to be the main picture once again. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 191.80.182.1 (talk) 11:55, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

An image of the kanji for "manga" is not illustrative of the topic itself (which is why I moved it to the "Etymology" section). In my opinion, File:Wikipe-tan manga page1.jpg is a suitably natural and appropriate representation of the topic, and I don't see how it isn't impartial. — Goszei (talk) 05:41, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

I second the request. If one clicks on the source of the current photo, it leads to the artist's Pixiv page showcasing "lolicon" pornography. In quite a few countries viewing such material is illegal; and legality aside there's also the concern of children or people at their working clicking on the source and being exposed to it. I know that Pixiv does require you to actually have an account and be logged in to see pornographic photos, but the risk is still there. FairlyDecent (talk) 03:21, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not censored. Putting that aside, it doesn't make sense that this image is objectionable because of material that is hosted on a different website (behind an account wall, no less) accessible through a link that isn't on Wikipedia. — Goszei (talk) 16:49, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi everyone. I come back to request this once more. I really think that the kanji manga is the best option rather than showing any page of any actual manga, just to be impartial. Could someone please do this or tell me why you won't do it? Thanks!
