Japan's manga sales hit record but growth slows as more people go out

At least now they stopped blame on piracy, one of the problem is they haven't changed their business.

They should make mangga accessible legally worldwide, they just keep doing business the way they are doing now and complaining that sales down.

Good, keep growing..

that's true, if they just sold it outside of Japan their piracy issue would go down and they'd make money. It's silly

Are the Digital sales included ?

I see more people on trains reading Manga in Digital format, than paper these days... perhaps the Government figures can't capture those numbers ?

More to do with the online offer than people not going out, market got saturated.

Spy family was a great manga.
