Boichi on manga piracy and digital access

The demand for manga already exists, and Boichi thinks the industry should stop treating pirate readers like enemies. The Dr. STONE creator calls them the future audience instead of adversaries. His reasoning is hard to argue with: a lot of fans worldwide have no legal route to the thing they love, because their countries are missing the whole chain, from the publishers to the translators to the networks that would get books into their hands. So telling someone in a place like that to just go buy manga is pointless when there is nothing to buy from. Boichi's answer is affordable digital services, which he sees as the thing that grows the industry worldwide and opens doors for the creators who come next. i am so glad someone said it lol
