Yokozuna Momoko intends to collaborate with Akasaka Akira to create a doujinshi for ‘My Recommended Child’! Is this an official history that has not been reviewed by the editorial department?

In the modern Japanese anime industry, the term ‘doujinshi’ is usually used to refer to publications created and self published by individuals, rather than through commercial publishers. However, this usually includes various secondary creations based on popular anime works. If the original author wants to extend their work, can such a publication still be called “doujinshi”?

Recently, Yoko Minamoto, who is responsible for drawing the popular manga “My Recommended Children”, shared her idea of creating a doujinshi for “My Recommended Children”. This idea immediately sparked ridicule from Japanese netizens: Isn’t this an official history without editorial review? Let’s take a look at the development of this matter together.

Is this an “official official history” that has not been reviewed by the editorial department?

However, there are also many fans who are looking forward to this. They believe that the two creators may have many ideas and content that were not presented in the serialization.

Netizens have expressed that:The fact that ‘My Recommended Child’ has not been reviewed by the editorial department is really curious… not to mention that Teacher Akasaka himself has a background as a manga artist, right?
