Also, branding can be functionally a type of monopoly in effect. JK Rowling can wipe a wiki article with her ass and make millions even if it's a sloppy, unedited, trite piece of offal. Apple might not be the only smartphone out there, but their walled garden makes leaving painful enough to...

Sigh. When it comes to market costs for localization, market size is a huge part of what drives costs. The same work that localizes in JP/EN for 900ish will cost 4-500% more in Germany because of the size of the market and the RoI. There's a MUCH more rabid and competitive market for high...

She pregante, preganannanan Dude BOUNCED.

I thought the harem ending was the only one that actually made sense given the running theme of the work...but it's also hard to say goodbye because each of them were so well developed and interesting. I would have loved a few character heavy transitional chapters that shows their life in the...
