[Multiple reports of damage]
—Yohsuken (@yohsuken.bsky.social) 2024-12-17T06:28:16.292Z
One aspiring new manga artist reported 'about a certain editorial department,' in which the editor is very enthusiastic and 'demands a ton of completely pointless retakes.'
The writers were exhausted by the editor's constant requests for retakes of small details, which really had nothing to do with the completeness or quality of the finished product.
Because of this, writers have been leaving one after another, and it seems that writers are even sharing information with each other, saying, 'It's dangerous to work there.'
It really seems to be at the level of 'remaking even the patterns on small items,' which seems like a misreading of the saying 'God is in the details.'
