Because you'll earn a lot less being an assistant, while having a lot less creative freedom.

You could gather from the story that he seems to have some savings. I would say the issue is rather that he was betting on his new serialization being a sure win, but was pointed out its flaws. So now he has to put in even more time. I guess it was just not exactly what he expected, he overestimated the plot of his next work.

Oh nice another cute lovable boy <3
God he look so cute with that shorts i want to molest him already

I thought that when talented artists need money, they just sell their dignity to sexual deviants and draw whatever fucked up porn they commision. Heard that being a drawing slave for furries is pretty proffitable.

Oh no why is the brother so relatable

A typo if you ever want to correct it:
"upon"

The other people's points aside, the starving artist issue is still a problem in Japan. I'm not sure about manga in particular, but anime faces tons of newcomers leaving year after year because it's too taxing for the low pay they're getting.

And as an already published author who was top of the rankings, it would be unbecoming to step back into what's essentially an internship type role. Can you imagine say, Hiro Mashima becoming an assistant after Fairy Tail's serialization ended? You'd think, "Ah, what a loser, he's really washed up," right? It would basically signal that you didn't have the talents or the option to continue as you did before.

The ratio of boys wearing short-shorts in real life vs the ratio of boys wearing short-shorts in this manga. :/

Anybody else laugh out loud when dude said, "The readers want something they haven't read already." Very idiosyncratic take on the manga/comics industry he's got there.

@givemersspls You're expecting logic from a 15 year old?

@givemersspls

>japan has no starving artist problem

ahahaha good one

 

[reika]

He's not starving, lol. If he was starving, he wouldn't be paying his brother's bills. He just wants more money, that's all.

thanks, fixed!

 

[DaoLaw]

I thought it was finally Suicide boy's waifu...

 

[owlette]

the author really has a thing for shotas huh

 

[RayS]

Really, most readers always want about the same thing they enjoyed before. And is this all a guile to make the artist kid draw loser shouta series?

 

[Tamerlane]

"It's just a sci-fi verison of this fantasy series"

Ummm...Are you familiar with Warhammer 40k? Because that franchise got popular basically by doing that to Warhammer Fantasy...

 

[ciurrb]

I'd be hella happy if Hayashida Q or Ryoko Kui would made scifi versions of Dorohedoro or Dungeon Meshi (though their characters are veeryy likable).

 

[degfiledge]

Don't they know readers want the same isekai trash over and over?
