		Tokyopop's unethical way of handling new creators will be big news in 2005 too if they don't change their policies.
		Tokyopop pays the lowest advance ($15,000) with an unachievable $2,000 incentive to finish faster than humanly possible (typically 4 months for a 176 page book).
		I've been glad to see Tokyopop giving opportunities to upcoming creators, but if they're using their position to take advantage, that curbs my enthusiasm quite a bit.

		Critics charge that these changes compromise the anime viewing experience, watering down and Americanizing it and making it less "authentic." This has spread to their manga series, with the renaming of Ikki Tousen as Battle Vixens, and Karin as Chibi Vampire, when Karin herself is far from chibi.
		Most notably, after several well-translated Anime releases, Tokyopop angered many fans of Initial D with a substandard "Americanized" dub of the Anime.
		They suggest that the misnomer is being used to exploit the current popularity of Japanese manga in the United Staets--of course, at the expense of the proper denotation: comic.

		Nevertheless, TOKYOPOP has been influential in the growth of the popularity of manga, as well as the current presentation of manga.
		Then in 2002, TOKYOPOP made a change that had manga purists cheering: the company decided to publish the anthologies in their original right-to-left format (essentially, they "unflipped" the comics) and left in the Japanese sound effects which, while impossible for Americans to understand, were an important part of the overall art.
		TOKYOPOP is also interested in branching out to American comic books, and is currently looking for American artists and writers willing to write and draw fl and white anthologies.

	Interview with TOKYOPOP. DVD Vision Japan
		TOKYOPOP is fast becoming a force to reckon with in the anime community.
		After about a year of deep analysis and thought, it just kind of evolved into becoming the real meaning behind the company and the values that name had kind of set were really indicative of what we were trying to do.
		I also wanted to add that several fans have told us, several retailers and others that TOKYOPOP is actually one of the companies that make the least amount of conscious changes to something.

		He hadn't heard word of Tokyopop acquiring them, but when he heard they were all sequels to popular titles they'd already bought he was VERY interested.
		Never-the-less, Tokyopop's basic stance is no editing (he used Battle Royal as an example.) I was also told that sometimes censorship of the manga becomes an issue when a series jumps erratically back and forth between two different age ranges depending on content.
		So far Tokyopop has chosen to change the age range on the manga, but if it becomes too much of an issue, their stance may be altered in the future.
