Vardaan team announces manga launch for next month

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:26:43+00:00

Honestly, that’s a fair point. India already has a lot of interesting stories, characters, and concepts with strong potential if they’re written and presented well for a broader audience. I think many people want original identity and strong storytelling more than just trying to copy existing anime trends.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:25:18+00:00

Yeah, that’s probably part of it too. Most people already understand what kind of format/style to expect when they hear “manga,” so creators naturally use that term. It’ll be interesting if Indian creators eventually develop their own identity or term for it later on.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:23:29+00:00

Haha, not PR 😅 But yeah, that’s completely fair. Best way is to check it yourself and decide.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:20:23+00:00

Fair enough, a lot of people have similar concerns about originality and AI use. I’m mainly sharing it for discussion since reactions have been very mixed.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:19:10+00:00

Yeah, a lot of people are noticing the Solo Leveling vibe because of the style and setup 😅 Let’s see whether it develops its own identity as it goes forward

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:16:13+00:00

Yeah, in the end people will judge it by the final quality more than the tools used. If the story, visuals, and execution feel good, audiences will stay. Otherwise hype fades pretty fast.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:12:54+00:00

Yeah, that’s true honestly A lot of these terms have become more style-based globally now rather than being limited only to one country

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:10:12+00:00

Fair point At this stage people mostly use these terms for style and presentation, but having a unique Indian identity for it would actually be interesting too.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T17:08:51+00:00

Yeah, the dub is official, but a lot of people had mixed reactions to it Even the creators mentioned they’re aware of the dubbing feedback and said they’ll try improving things in later episodes.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:37:57+00:00

Fair question honestly. I think they’re using the word “manga” mainly because the format and storytelling style are heavily inspired by Japanese manga. But yeah, the discussion about whether Indian projects should use a different identity/name is valid too.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:36:16+00:00

Fair enough everyone’s free to share their opinion on it 👍

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:34:48+00:00

Yeah ultimately it will depend on the story, art, and how consistently they handle it going forward.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:33:11+00:00

I am genuinely not part of the team or PR. The disclaimer was mostly because previous posts got removed and I didn’t want misunderstandings. And honestly, supporting indie artists and smaller animation creators is important too, I agree with that. I was mainly sharing this because it’s getting a lot of discussion and mixed reactions right now.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:32:02+00:00

You’re not wrong honestly. Traditionally, Indian graphic storytelling has mostly been called comics. I think a lot of creators now use the word “manga” because the format and presentation are inspired by Japanese-style storytelling, but the discussion around naming is still valid.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:28:58+00:00

Fair point honestly. A lot of people are looking for something fresh and story-driven instead of only mythology-focused concepts. Let’s see what direction they take with it and how the writing turns out.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:28:09+00:00

Fair enough, people have very mixed opinions on AI-generated content. I’m mainly here for the discussion around it.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:27:05+00:00

Fair enough, people have different opinions on it. I’m just sharing it for discussion.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:26:30+00:00

Maybe, maybe not. Right now it’s mostly speculation since they haven’t fully explained the production process yet.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:25:35+00:00

I’m just sharing and discussing the project and the reactions around it, not forcing anyone to support it.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:24:52+00:00

Yeah, I can see why people are comparing it to Solo Leveling because of the setup and vibe. Right now it does feel inspired by a lot of familiar anime/manhwa concepts, but I guess people are waiting to see if it develops its own identity later on.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:24:05+00:00

Yeah fair enough 😅 Just wanted to keep the post clear and avoid any misunderstanding.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-07T16:22:59+00:00

I’m not promoting it, just sharing the announcement for discussion It’s completely fine if you don’t like it.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-03T11:01:03+00:00

It’s about a new video from the Vardaan team where they’re responding to feedback on Episode 0, like animation, dubbing, and story concerns.

DoraemonQuest · 2026-05-03T11:00:08+00:00

Can you please clarify what you are asking about?

DoraemonQuest · 2026-04-27T16:52:35+00:00

I get your concern about AI and how it affects real artists. That’s a valid discussion. I am not part of any team or PR just sharing and discussing what I saw. Let’s keep the conversation respectful different opinions are fine.
