treebeard meeting Merry and Pippin for the first time

[vulture-jack]

In all honesty the fact that any shonen jump manga ends up even somewhat coherent is wild considering the authors schedules like all id be able to produce would be rambling fever dreams

Like imagine having to plan, storyboard, and illustrate each new chapter every week on the fly with meetings with editors you have to please and then days of crunch time, like never getting a full nights rest and then doing the same thing next week.

Mangakas have reported a mere couple of hours of personal time a week. Its literally unfathomable to me how anyone can create consistently good work in that industry.

And takahashi being SICK on top of that? Christ dude.

Like look at this one artists schedule and tell me this doesnt make your soul shrivel a little at the thought. They barely have time to SLEEP let alone write and plan

[shapooda]

yes this ^^^^^^^ they are heroes

[obskenobs]

they aren’t heroes, they’re overworked human beings. stop glorifying overwork culture it’s super unhealthy. the manga industry is a grim place and they really, really need to get a fucking grip and stop coming up with bullshit rules. 

if they want to release their magazines weekly, they need to come up with a system that doesn’t involve a person having to sleep for 2 hours and eat once in a day. or don’t have a weekly manga magazine at all… and y’all need to stop normalizing and/or glorifying unhealthy work ethics like this, it’s disgusting

[vulture-jack]

Yeah no one send any hate to shapooda but the point of my post was that this is p awful.

No one needs their weekly manga chapter that badly. Imagine how much more time theyd have if it were even just biweekly.

This isnt healthy or sustainable. Its soul sucking and exhausting. One week of this would be enough to burn me out I cant imagine this being my whole existence. Theres no time in here to be a person. See family and friends. Go out and enjoy yourself. Meet people. Try new things.

Look at that monday. He eats at 8 am and then doesnt even get another break until 8 am the next day when he goes to sleep.

Theres no reason for this.

[Twitter user @MinovskyArticle directly quoting Junji Ito at his TCAF 2019 panel: Sleep is very important. Everyone get enough sleep. Many manga artists die young and it’s because they don’t sleep. Your best ideas will come to you when you’re sleeping. Please get some sleep.]

Shigeru Mizuki on getting enough sleep, contrasted with Osamu Tezuka and Shotaro Ishinomori.
