For comics, idk but for manga specifically the second country is France.
Yeah, I think these stats are bs, some people are also debunking the taco bit.
According to Wikipedia, France is about 40% of the European market and I don't think Japanese read much western comics, so I don't think that's what we talk about.
In my perception this French anomaly comes from two factors :
- There was a French TV segment in the 90s called "club Dorothé" that imported a lot of Japanese animation, initially because it was cheaper that producing or importing other TV shows. This got a whole generation addicted to mangas and now it's just part of culture.
- There is an actual cultural proximity between France and Japan, the most obvious part being the obsession about food.
Pretty sure California eats more tacos
Am I reading this wrong, or are apart from the Pepsi thing all per capita facts? How is this surprising you don't need a large population for that.
And yet, they closed the Noway ride 'Maelstrom' at Epcot. I'm still sad.
Skjera bagera
So does that mean America is 3rd in the taco eating? 🤔
I honestly have trouble believing that, real talk.
My contributions alone make me feel like we're numba one. 😤
there are also many people in Norway who are very beautiful. so many of them are so pretty or handsome, and even the handsome ones are pretty
I always wondered if the Norwegian's love of tacos comes from it sounding kinda like "thank you" in Norwegian
