>>becomes extremely rich and beloved in 4 years of intense work
All thanks to Ufotable btw. If not for them, his sloppy manga would've ended and he would be eating instant ramen for a living, lol.
>>not an editorcuck like Toriyama
Toriyama will still be remembered far longer than Koyoharu Gotouge who already faded out in obscurity and the public don't really care about. Tezuka chose him as his heir apparent and Tomino named him in the top 3 most important mangaka in Japan. Oda and Tezuka too. They're pretty much rock stars in the manga world. Gotouge is a dime a dozen like Kubo is.
>>never has to set foot on the slavecamp again
A bit ungrateful for the magazine that published your slop in the first place, are we?

In the manga world, there's only three people who can truly be called a celebrity and be referred to as a superstar and these people are:
>Osamu Tezuka
The father of manga.
>Akira Toriyama
Most popular manga ever made and Tezuka's heir apparent (Tezuka literally called him that).
>Eiichiro Oda
Best selling manga ever.

Just like Kurumada, there's nothing that separates people like Kishimoto and Kubo from another mangaka with a hit, in Japan at least. There's no niche nor achievement that makes him a more notable name. Same with the Demon Slayer author whose series is well-known but the general public don't care about the author. Tezuka, Toriyama and Oda are the closest you'd get to "rockstars" in the manga world. Everyone else are just a dime a dozen.
