We all have read a manga, we know the work behind these works, the mangakas are those who are responsible for drawing and scripting of these (depending on the work), this can be a really beautiful job … although it requires constant effort and what is earned is not too much, so the Twitter/X user and d0ujinshis cartoonist, “@ANETAROU”, says it is better erotic drawing, because you can earn more money with it.
Drawing d0ujinshis makes the most money, mangaka says
In his recent update on the social network Twitter/X, the user of “@ANETAROU”, an erotic manga artist, which has had a recent debate by a tweet of the same stating with his experience in the world of manga that, professional mangakas do not earn anything compared to a novice who draws racy content, something that has formed a constant debate in this thread that would make many mangakas like Mr. Oda fall off his chair.
In the comment thread many state, “The demand for erotica is too high, that’s why it works”, “What sets them apart is that a professional can create a work like Oda or Kubo, something newbies can’t”, “You might be getting squeezed out”. The comments go back and forth, but a pattern can be seen in it, as one of the comments, people express that, being an erotic cartoonist gives money, but it doesn’t open as many doors as a professional, the projects you can do as a professional mangaka.
This artist offers a point of view where the royalties of a professional are fairer, since the professional only gets 5%-10%, being the novice someone more endowed with benefits for not having so many means, publishers, labels, reaching up to 80% of royalties, a real barbarity. Speaking of adult content artists, recently a sad news has been brought for a certain d0ujinshis website which is being shut down, something we have detailed in this note on our page.
The path that a talented artist decides to walk, depends on his objectives, there are people who make their manga for the love of their work, others to make money with it, others for recognition, like everything, mangakas decide their destiny, but we can not ignore the fact that artists who are dedicated to drawing things subdued and d0ujinshi, also have their merit. If you want to take a look at the thread full of deep debates about this moral issue, you can check it out here.
Illustrators, cartoonists who decide to create their own stories can go to the call of manga or comics, in Japan more professionally there are faculties aimed at developing mangakas along the art studies, this leading them to create their dream stories. Perhaps along the way everyone has their own goals, looking at the big picture they choose the best decisions to achieve it, so drawing adult content to earn more money is not something that can lower the value of the work, although there are certain limits. The mangakas, even if they earn little by comparison, have shown us their beautiful and unique stories, something we appreciate every day.
