Why doesn't Viz publish colored pages of manga in color? Weren't they supposed to be leaders of the industry?

Do Japanese tanks publish color pages from magazines in color?
>>

Depends, I saw that WSJ series have every colour page grayscaled, but one series from Jump SQ has one colour page every volume (not sure about other series)
>>

That's basically my experience too. They have a few color pages for the first chapter of the volume, and all follow-up color pages are grayscaled; and that's also what I get in localized releases.

They are almost always greyscaled in Japan too, in return, they remove all the advertising that's in the magazine versions, I think it's a fair trade-off

>I think it's a fair trade-off
I think if you pay for something you should get the product that was made. Not shitty greyscales. Just me though I'm sure.

Depends entirely on the publisher and the series itself, too.
>>
>>159582886
Manga are produced as cheaply as possible. That's why they're only like 350 yen.
>>
>>159582973
Then they'd print them smaller and on worse paper. Your argument holds no value when the cover is printed in color and extra pages and redraws are included not in the original run.
>>
>>159583074
They are printed on extremely cheap paper. Compared to Japanese tanks, the localized ones are high grade products.

VIZ doesn't even translate double meanings of kanji.
>>
Color pages are reserved for the kanzenban edition. That way they make you buy the series twice.
