Join me , your host Ryan, as I take you on a journey through the pivotal decades of the 70s, 80s, and 90s, exploring the evolution of manga and its impact on the global stage.In the 70s, manga experienced a transition period, with the rise of popular female authors and the mainstream success of the shoujo genre. I delve into the themes, representation, and cultural influence of this era, while also shedding light on the international market's growing interest in anime.Moving into the 80s, witness the birth and rise of iconic series that have become household names. Discover the groundbreaking works that redefined the manga landscape, such as "Berserk," "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind," and "Parasyte." Finally, explore the boom of the 90s as the international manga market took flight, fueled by beloved anime series like "Sailor Moon," "Pokémon," and "Dragon Ball." Dive into influential titles like "Hunter X Hunter," "Vagabond," and the legendary "One Piece," which continue to captivate fans to this day.Join me as I uncover the cultural significance, market developments, and digitalization of manga, and how these factors have shaped the anime and manga world we know today.
