ThatBoyNice247 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Just wondering why manga creators don't finish the manga first before they create the anime? Are they in a rush to get it animated or what smh, because man if they waited we could have more complete anime.Would have loved to see Gantz, Claymore, Berserk, and Soul Eater when the manga was completed.

Koby Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 It's because of how licensing works and the contract agreements that come with it. It's first come first serve with the highest bidders usually. Getting licensed for an anime means more money for the mangaka and anime companies want to be sure to snag the good series. Thing is this comes with contract agreements where they must release by x-day or lose the license etc.Plus there is the whole, 'make the anime while the manga is hot' ideal rather than wait till people have forgotten about the manga to animate it. After all if there isn't much of a following there isn't much point. You also take into account how long some manga have been running. One Piece for example is still not complete even after nearly 15 years. While even some shorter anime series had manga that was only released on a monthly basis and therefore took several years to make enough manga for a small 12 episode series. They just can't wait around. As a result we often get unfinished or anime-original endings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rominzxx Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 While yes it would be nice for the mangaka to be able to finish his/her manga before it get's licensed that just isn't going for several reasons. While there are many reasons the main one has to do with time constraints. As stated previously the studious want to get the manga made into anime to make money as fast as they can, the mangaka's who write the mangas can't write fast enough to turn a several volume series into a full season anime. There are also several economical factors involved such as budget constraints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkDream787 Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 My guess is, their thinking more about income than anything, unless their just plain impatient.Also, some animes dont even follow the mangas so theres really no need for it to be finished first.

misakilovesu Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 ahaha xDD Greed but also impatience I think Furthermore, Anime are also meant to promote the stuff they´re based on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveit2me Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Although greed is a major player in it, I would say it also comes down to lack of good ideas in the industry. People just aren't wiling to come up with original anime anymore, so they wait until manga are 10 chapters from finishing and start adapting it for the next season so that they don't waste a 13 episode slot of time and lose potential money gaining opportunities.

gyad Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 It's good publicity for the source material (manga/light novel). Shingeki no Kyojin manga sales went through the roof when the anime was released for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajin Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 manga is for readersanime is for viewersmanga is the story depicted in anime. manga and anime aren't aligned : this is why filers exist.not every series get an anime . only those seies which have the potential to geneate money are produced and fianced . manga is continous work which starts after getting publishers approval and complete contract is signedhence by no means they gonna spill all the beans in anime with all the uncertainity of its sucess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
