/jp/ - Otaku Culture

You lack the understanding of how the Japanese comic market works.
No, scratch that, you don't seem to understand how any comic or literature business works.
If you actually thought something ''I've heard that all sorts of things get published as manga in Japan, so I figure with a lot of persistence and the right story, it shouldn't be too hard,'' you're already out, out and out.
I doubt you would even break into your domestic comic market as a writer but do you what you want because I am no one to stop your ''dreams''.

You're right, I don't. it's not a dream of mine and I'm not an aspiring writer, it's just something I was idly curious about. since you seem to know a thing or two about it, what's it like?

It's never going to happen.

lol so you don't actually know anything about the industry? that's what I was expecting but here you are deciding to post in the thread anyway

>>18162992
It will be difficult anon.

Why would I waste my time replying to someone who has no serious interest? Plus this is not a manga or publishing board

This thread is proof /jp/ is useless. You might as well ask someplace else, OP.

Why the fuck would you ask about a job on /jp/ of all places

I'd ask reddit. They're a couple iq points higher than this site and there may be a good bloke that can actually answer you. I dunno about publishers, but have you considered self publishing? All it requires is a website pretty much.

>>18165572
First, >>18164185 is not me (>>18163753).
If you're actually and seriously asking some hypothetical editorial advice about stories that you've never even wrote then all I've to say to you is should not waste other people's time with this any longer.
If you want to learn about the inner workings of the ''industry'' (you didn't even specify which comic or literary industry) then do your own researches about the subject, read the tons of books and articles about it like everyone else, don't expect other internet users to feed you info.just because you asked.
Oh, and please do go search your answers somewhere else like those two were saying, even though I doubt there's a single soul who would humour you after you reading about nonexistent stories from a person who's not actually a writer and doesn't have any intention of becoming one.

why are you on /jp/ if you aren't otaku enough to answer a niche question about manga economics and only pretend to be
Get out of /jp/, kudasai

I don't understand your question

>>18168453
Why are you on jp if u don't know how to sage

>>18168602
I thought I did, maybe I mistyped it.

you know what, I previously wasn't planning on becoming a writer, but simply because of how condescending you two are I have changed my mind and now I am going to move to Japan and become a famous gensakusha. my work will become so popular and influential that people will become overly attached to the female characters and non-Japanese fans will use images of them to shitpost on /jp/. I just need to know some way of signaling the two of (You) so that, when the day arrives, you know it was me who wrote it. maybe some kind of internet handle that I can put on the dedication page.

>>18168453
All shitposting aside, do you have any good sources on the economics of the Japanese "otaku" industries? I've seen articles here and there about individual cost breakdowns but I was wondering if there was a book or something there about it.

>>18170288
Use "Tenshi from that one image of Tenshi yes, THAT one, eating a corndog and experiencing the pleasure of being cummed inside" as your alias.

>>18170288
Yeah, and I'm gonna get two wheels attached to my ass so that I can become a bike and race in the Moto GP.

>>18170288
Nah dude, the fact that you're posting here means you'll never amount to anything, much less learn Japanese and then become a famous author

I'll answer you a little seriously based off what little I know about the industry.

Firstly, it's possible to enter the manga industry as a writer. Secondly, I don't know how that happens and only know a few writers who have done it. Sandrovich Yabako, for instance, is at least somewhat foreign and was recruited into the industry as a writer despite a COMPLETELY wild career path.

That said I have to imagine it's next to impossible for a full foreigner to enter as a writer for manga. For one thing note I mentioned Yabako was recruited, he wasn't even looking for a job. I'd be very surprised if anyone took interest in a story of yours, let alone gave your gaijin ass the time of day.

But I bet if you wrote a web novel that got really popular that might open some doors from you. Web novels can get stupidly popular and become light novels, manga, and then anime so hey, it's worth a shot. Might need some art though, I don't know how that garbage works.

man this post looks terrible, I shouldn't have double spaced it like that, shit I'm sorry

This thread stinks of shittit.
Stop replying and let let this thread die.
You retards keep making the same damn threads over and over asking /jp/ about shit that doesn't fucking matter.
4chan is not your personal blog. It is not a hub for non-NEET/Normalfag advice either.

surely if poptepic can be broadcast on television, anything is possible
