Being on the "Losing" Team

The “Harsh” reality? No American manga-ka, or American manga creator, has ever sold 1 million copies or more of anything, pretty much. Ever. Manga made by Americans doesn’t really sell. I don’t see why so many American artists want to draw manga and anime. The market points out quite obviously that world manga doesn’t really sell. Some of it looks pretty good, but for the most part no one really pays it much mind. They never have. It makes a miniscule amount of money at bookstores. It’s pretty much neither marketable nor profitable.
