My entry was chosen and my debut was arranged.I was so happy. I asked her again and again until she finally relented and posted it. The problem was that I couldn't send my manuscript because the post office closed before I got out of school.There was no mail on Sundays, and courier services did not exist in those days.I bought a stamp and asked my mother to post my entry, but she refused for a long time. For reference, a stewardess's starting salary at that time was 17,000 per month. Then KODANSHA held a competition to find a new manga artist, with prize money awarded jointly by four of its manga magazines.
My parents were strongly opposed from the moment I told them I wanted to be a manga artist. That was what inspired me to be a manga artist. When I thought about my future career path during junior school, I wanted more than anything to keep manga alive, and I really wanted to be part of that world.I thought it was amazing that manga artists brought us such wonderful stories despite the condemnation they received from society, and I wanted to learn from them in some way. There was a white-hot movement to get rid of "harmful" books, and Mighty Atom was classified as a "harmful" series.
It made a huge impression on me.But some people were against it just because it was a manga.
