this, like much of japanese society, is rigid. laughter and locally centered businesses? that doesnt allow a lot of potential mangaka to fully use their potential. yes they might be the best, but only in that category.

manga isnt meant to be about conformity. then again this is japan and they look down on people voicing personal opinions out loud. YAY FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!!....but when this country goes to hell im going to Italy where i have plenty of relatives.

oh yea...japanophiles, kiss my a$$.
