The manga industry's net worth and what this means

[edit]
WP:NOTFORUM
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

As I noticed that the manga industry is worth several billion US dollars something unexpected was drawn irreversibly to my attention, and what I found is: that the US dollars can be divided in parts while the Japanese yen is a simple large number. It is 3.6 versus 406.



Although money is imaginary the difference is not. Money, money money. Speling12345 (talk) 2:59, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

erroneous Kanji given for manga

[edit]

This is a real puzzler for me, as the picture given for "manga" is erroneous, as one can quickly see when comparing it with the kanji provided right at the beginning of the article (漫画). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E34:EC72:E9E0:10E7:3A2A:8AAB:853A (talk) 08:00, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As could be seen on [1] (bottom right corner), Santō Kyōden's calligraphy is a bit particular. One stroke on 画 is started slightly below the top instead of from the top, and - unlike modern Japanese - Santō Kyōden regularly seems to utilize hyphen-like lines to connect compound characters. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 22:30, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly, and thanks for providing a more detailed explanation of what is problematic than I could.
The mains issue I see with featuring this particular calligraphy is that I have seen it reproduced a lot in different contexts, and therefore propagating something that is very close to being a typo. 194.2.155.30 (talk) 14:52, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why is first manga example on manga infobox Wikipedia related?

Because it's one of the only freely-licensed and high-quality pictures of manga on Commons. Link20XX (talk) 20:19, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
