Manga versus Manhua

@EvergreenFir:

Regarding this edit

It is true the Digimon series is Japanese, but the specific product is written by a Hong Kong author. Some other pages on other wikis say it was first published in Chinese. This would make it a manhua, not a manga.

For example, while Spider-Man is an American property, Spider-Man: The Manga is a manga as the author is Japanese and the work was first published in Japanese by a Japanese company. WhisperToMe (talk) 03:06, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know, the term use is based on the publisher, not the author. See for example Boichi. EvergreenFir (talk) 04:58, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@EvergreenFir: AFAIK the original publisher is Rightman Publishing Ltd., which is a Hong Kong company. WhisperToMe (talk) 03:10, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@EvergreenFir: I acquired the Tokyopop (American English) volume 1 and the inside cover stated that it was first published in Hong Kong by Rightman. So I changed the description back to it being a manhua. WhisperToMe (talk) 18:45, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay thank you for looking into it and explaining. I appreciate it EvergreenFir (talk) 20:07, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 11 August 2023

– The other 2020 reboot series has almost equal pageview stats similar to the 1999–2000 one. Even with more page views total within last 90 days, I'm unconvinced that such stats suffice to make the original anime the primary topic of the same name. Meanwhile, the base title should be that of a disambiguation page. George Ho (talk) 21:53, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

For what I understand, the official title for the 2020 reboot is "Digimon Adventure:". 94-kun (talk) 22:26, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Since the official title is a stylization, I don't think it makes a signficant difference. The reboot is also not a straight-up remake, so they can be considered two separate series with the same name. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 23:15, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
