All the good manga get anime, if it's not animated, that's usually a good sign it's shit.

Reminds me of this. The extra long leg is to compensate for the folds.

I thought the over the top spreads and pseudo animations were scrapped and redrawn for the tanks?

>>151025799
quite the opposite, not being adaptable means its utilizes the medium to its full potential

>>151025112
I don't know why manga artists keep making two pages splash images when they clearly won't look good in the printed format.

>>151025891
Just the animation-esque ones.

>>151025112
I like the feel of the book in my hand.

>>151025934
Uh, what? Manga and anime are both just drawings. Anime can do literally anything a manga can do, only better because there is movement and sound.

It's like saying that gifs are better than webms and that gifs which have no wemb counterpart are better for some reason.

>>151025808
If it's properly printed the file will have an appropriate sized gutter. I don't think any professional printer would ask for something that stupid.
>>151025963
You can make it look perfect if you do it properly

Jesus... it's like looking into a torn, ripped up asshole. Except the only thing being raped are your eyes, conscious spending habits and your wallet.

>>151026629
That's your own opinion. Anime can't capture articulate aesthics that only manga can do. There's a tradeoff in art quality in a still over a movement.

>>151026629
still i feel like anime completely bastardizes pretty much all aspects of the source material

>>151026629

>anime can do literally anything a manga can do, only better

Maybe if you had unlimited funds and manpower. And even then, some things cannot be translated from manga to anime when it comes to art.

>>151026629
You forgot your guaranteedreplies.jpg

>>151025934
What potential? Manga is nothing but anime stills is done that way so a conversion is easier too

>>151026629
Flip through Vagabond and you'll understand why some manga don't get any sort of anime adaptations.

Not a factor when it isn't the case almost all the time. Judge things by how they are, now how they could be in your irrelevant hypothetical scenario - You're usually going through the story with worse art than the manga, you're most likely "reading" it anyway because you don't speak nip and need subs, and after a while of watching anime you'll start recognizing shit by VA instead of by character as intended (I hope you enjoy Takahiro Sakurai because that guy is fucking everywhere)
Unless it's a series where they drastically do make an effort to improve it over the source material (and that does happen with some series) you might as well just read the manga

>>151025112
>Not reading the chapters first online and then purchase the books to support the author
Get out of my /a/ now. No fucking wonder the content mangakas produce is shit nowadays.

I do buy localized manga mostly because I like it physical and its cool shelf candy but seriously.

>>151028196
Well yeah, part 2 was drawn before you were even born.

>>151026878
No, Anon you are wrong, I can't touch anime and anime doesn't have the paper smell.

>>151026629
Anime can't do panelization and page turns. Even if you had literally unlimited talent working on whatever show you want and time to finish the thing those are things you can't do.

Comic art focuses on stills. You can draw art and create poses that aren't believable or interesting in movement.

>>151036501
The company that localizes the manga. Japan disregards western market and sells rights fairly cheap; what's worse they often want one time payment, not percentage, so buying localized manga only means your local publishing company gets more money. Anyway even buying original works is inferior to sending the author some money.

>>151027782

They do have money though, they are just regurgitating shit that prints money (and some shit that no longer does, before some people can't adapt to demand changes fast enough).

>>151036501
Japanese right owners do get money from localized manga. The smart ones don't sell the rights for cheap anymore.

It's actually that they still sell much more manga in japan than anywhere else.

There are some retards in this thread that think it's physically impossible to put stills in anime.

Literally the only limiting factor is time+money.

>>151036972
Kubo being one of them. That dude arm wrestles pretty tough to get a good contract deal to help him live comfortably. 50% is actually pretty good, considering how popular bleach was and the sales and promotions were good too while it lasted. He could have done better and gotten more creative post fullbring really. His readers just got older and smarter after a while.

Highly recommended reading here. Comics are its own unique medium and plenty of manga takes advantage of that fact. Anime is not a "superior version of a manga," but rather its own thing entirely.

>>151038240
"Understanding Comics" is the English title.

I would say that's because the print quality of most tankoban is deplorable. It's very cheap feeling with poor paper stock. English manga publishers often have more "deluxe" editions with better binding, printing, paper, etc. One downside is a strong binding that results in OP's problem.

>>151039696
Depends on series and demographic. Kids manga for 400 yen is printed on toilet paper, cute girl doing cute things manga for 800 is printed on great paper with a bunch of color pages

>If it's properly printed the file will have an appropriate sized gutter. I don't think any professional printer would ask for something that stupid.

Shows what the fuck you know (hint: it's nothing). Putting a break in the image for a two page spread is terrible in print. Looks like ass. It's better to have the artist compensate for print, looks much better.

>Guin Saga (グイン・サーガ Guin Sāga?) is a best-selling heroic fantasy novel series by the Japanese author Kaoru Kurimoto, in continuous publication since 1979. A record 100 volumes were originally planned,[1] but the final total stands at 130 volumes and 22 side-story novels, with the last four volumes and the twenty-second side novel published posthumously.[2] She was working on the 130th volume of Guin Saga up until May 23, 2009, after which point she became too ill to write.[3] After the 100th book in the series was published in 2005, an event to celebrate this was held in Tokyo, with 600 attending.[4] Guin Saga is the longest continuing single-writer's work in the world with total circulation exceeding 28 million worldwide.[5]

>The main story of Guin Saga resumed on November 8, 2013, four years after the passing of the original author. Yū Godai published Volume 131 Parro no Ankoku on that date, followed by Yume Yohino's Volume 132 Cylon no Banka in December 2013.[6]
