Posted in: Japanese government wants to acquire original anime and manga art for creation of national archive See in context
Some mangakas are against this as government do not want to pay them. Its their work, why would it be given for free?? Therefore they decided to burn their genko and genga now or asked to their family to do so.
About anime cels, very are still kept by studios and due to the high value now, how will you request to private fans to give their collections?
Even more when a large quantity is already abroad lol
will they go to mandarake shops and bring all cels and gengas?
This project basis is right but the way to do it is totally wrong!
