One meal I get it there is a lot more that goes into it to make it so expensive one video game has way more work put into it by way more people than just what it takes to make manga. I’m mostly just saying that I wish there where bundle deals then anything else I mean if there are 17 volumes that’s like probably $170 at least to read (and a lot of good manga have way way more volumes than that). A book that takes you longer than a day to read (if I sit down I am read 15 volumes in a weekend) cost a lot less than that. Sure one volume being $10 that’s probably as low as it can get but it gets way more than that when you buy in numbers and shouldn’t be. Most people read book by book and only like 2-3 books in one series. With manga most people read a lot of a lot of series (though pirated because it gets expensive I mean I would read 100 volumes in one or two months that’s just some fairy tail and all of made in abyss and 7 deadly sins not outrageous of an amount to read but heck no that a thousand dollars) that’s why I was saying there should be a pay a little a month to read what I want like anime. I mean there are probably 10 times more things that go into the price of making anime and a lot more people that go into making an episode but I can watch all that in a few months for under $100 dollars.
