@ryo That's fucking sad, like most JP Manga artists are already open about who they are and plenty of people can do simple things like seeing if they have an account that's legit. I assume this is more of a problem for hentai artists who draw lolis or JK girls or whatever else is popular to "woke" Twitter users to hate on that day. Can't they protest against this?

@Dakotastomp96 Most manga artists don't disclose who they are to anyone other than their publishers actually, so no idea what you mean by "being open about who they are".

As for protest, they probably won't.
Japan just doesn't really have a protest culture, it's instead more common to just bite through the sour apple and go along with it like if it's no big deal.

@ryo I mean famous artists like The ones from Shonen Jump. Don't we know who they are and what they look like?

@Dakotastomp96 Depends on the manga-ka in question.
Some are known, others are not.
But even if everyone in Shonen Jump is known, it's still just a fraction of all the manga-ka throughout the country.

@ryo take Kohai of MHA, and niggas were mad at the team for not making a non-binary character or "Sexualizing the female characters" with their outfits or some bullshit earlier back in 2020, and even after all the criticism, they're still making bank and loved by its fans. People seem to know who he is.
