i disagree with this take considering there's quite a number of very great female Japanese mangakas out there that write great stuff, even some very based stuff. Which begs the question. Why is there a lack of good female comic writers in the West? (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

Meritocracy, the manga industry is cut throat and so you REALLY have to bring your A game.

The west has quotas and pandering which artificially lowers those barriers leading to inferior products being made by Women.

I wanted to comment as well but this nails it entirely.

Focusing on getting "women"(insert any identity group here) into any field as opposed to getting "the best" into a field has been disastrous for us all on almost every aspect of life.

But especially in media.

Rumiko Takahashi climbed to the top of the industry over the corpses of her rivals.

She was a relentless artistic machine that won a battle of attrition while others could not perform as consistently or as often and burned out.

She earned her place as the top selling mangaka of her generation through blood, sweat and tears.
