Wasn't Kenshin arrested in 2017? 2018? Either way, THREE people in less than 3 years is worrisome. If this happens again then I am going to be careful reading jump manga... |

What I will say is that this is entirely situation-dependent. If it is a collaborative work, for example, the likely situation is that the 2nd party holds equal rights to the overall IP. This would remain a complicated matter, however, as there is no easy way for those joint rights to be severed, so even in the 2nd party wanted to continue, and potentially could, they would need to get the 1st party to agree to that continuation. In this case that would mean hiring a writer. That writer would likely then look to gain their own set of rights, potentially being added as a 3rd joint rights holder... as I said, it gets messy. Another common example would be where the party sold their rights. It's not uncommon for a writer to sell some or all of the rights to their work to a publisher in exchange for getting that work published. It's a much easier way to get on the map with your first work where you're an unknown without a lot of clout. This might be less common in the manga industry, but it's still easily possible. |

Just for accuracy's sake, Shimabukuro (the Toriko author)'s arrest happened in 2002. It's still not great, and the way Shueisha handled both previous incidents by trying their damndest to pretend they didn't happen is still awful, but it's not quite as frequent as once a year. |

That still would depend on who holds the rights to the series and whether the artist can write a story too. Some artists only or mostly draw the manga for writers in their career because they don't have the writing skills needed, although I sincerely wish that Usazaki has the ability to write stories herself so she can advance as an independent mangaka. She's still 22 years old anyway. (Besides, Miura was only working for chapter 0 and the first 5 chapters of Ajin before giving it all to Sakurai - it was still pretty much in the early stage. Sakurai has said that he had met Miura only once, and that's after Miura dropped writing for the series. Before that Sakurai was only asked to make the storyboard and draw the manga. Miura never told Sakurai why he left, and when they met he just apologised for leaving and that was all. After that, Sakurai has proven that he himself is one hell of a writer.) |

I dunno if it's been said here yet (I dare not read the pedo apologism in the comments) but apparently Act Age has officially ended:

Yeah, it seems like they're still supporting Usazaki, so hopefully she has a long career ahead of her because she's a great artist.
