    Holy shit, looking at that first issue cover of SJ is insane -- it looks so different. I had no idea who the first mangaka was. The earliest I could think of (as you've anticipated) was Tezuka, but I definitely thought there were more before him. Another highly informative video. Thanks you as always for your ever valuable contributions to the community's knowledge of manga and the industry!

      Thank you!
      There's definitely mangaka before Tezuka, but Tezuka basically invented the "modern" manga, so it's natural we think of him first. Like how we think of Pong as the first videogame, even though it's not.

    Good Video man! I never knew that weekly shonen magazine came before WSJ or the fact that it was bigger than it in terms of popularity before series like Dragon Ball, Jojos & DQ: Adventure of Dai would become a thing

      Thanks! And yeah, both Magazine and Sunday are older than Jump by a decade. What made Jump grow more was Hokuto no Ken, followed by the hits you mentioned. The 80s was a great time for Jump.

    Damn I didn't know that lmao. I wasn't expecting the first jump mangaka to be someone super well known, but I literally don't know a single one of this guy's manga

    The first mangaka could actually be considered Charles Wirgman (yes, he is British lol, I recommend looking up Helen McCarthy, she is a pretty great manga historian), although Tezuka is definitely the first modern mangaka.

    • @MangaCrash
      @MangaCrash  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Charles Wirgman did had a cartoon magazine in Japan (I mention that in my Manga Magazines video), but I personally wouldn't consider him a "mangaka", just because he wrote in English for English people who were in Japan.

    It's a shame that so many authors get forgotten, and canceled so early into there series

    ngl, I'm not surprised this series got axed. From description alone this series sound like "first shonen manga".
    Like if someone would want to prank me and convince me it was first shonen and predecessor to all cliche that shonen manga have (especially battle shonen) I would believe immediately.

      To be fair, in 1968 most of battle manga clichés werent that cliched

      Probably it would be Astro Boy but maybe there is surprise?

      @@nieznajomy4398 Yeah, I think that'd be Astro Boy, but it's not a bad idea at all, I know there's influences from other Japanese mediums that ended up forming the battle shounen formula, so a video on the history of the genre would be pretty cool, actually. Thanks for the idea!

    History's getting cancelled. Way too, much; way too, fast.
