“These printing plates are abandoned or recycled day by day,” explained Kinpachi to ANN. He clarified that the factories themselves own the plates, and not the publishers or the authors. “Many of these plates don't exist now, but we should archive them for the future. If you want to study how manga is made, there's no real place to do so anymore.”
This made me unexpectedly sad. How much has been lost that now there's no really place to learn about those kinds of details? Are there ANY archives at all anywhere? |

Based my discussion with Kinpachi and what I read from the two links below, there aren't any public places that actively archive the manga making process. Since the factories own the resin and roller plates, I imagine they're only displayed in special cases, like these exhibits in partnership with Shueisha. When I visited the Manga Museum in Kyoto, I didn't see anything like this, so it was really interesting to see how manga is printed and bound together. I imagine since these factories improved the printing process in 2024, the materials featured on display are no longer in use and they actively recycle material and resin wears down over time. So if you're able to get to the Bay Area, I highly suggest going to see it! https://www.famsf.org/stories/one-piece-only-how-manga-is-made https://play2020.jp/article/onepieceonly-en/ |
