Why Don’t They Make College Sports Manga? Is College Sports Not as Big as Highschool Sports in Japan?
I read a lot of sports manga, and I’ve noticed that most focuses on Highschool Sports (Baseball, Voleyball, Basketball, etc.). If it’s not highschool, it’s in a professional setting (e.g. Hajime no Ippo).
From reading baseball manga, I know there’s at least a college league for baseball, but why isn’t tackled more?
I’m no expert on this, but in addition to the other factors people mentioned, I would say that people in Japan seem to pay a lot more attention to high school sports. The Koshien Stadium and the high school baseball tournaments name after it are very famous. I’m not even interested in sports, but I know about them and often notice friends talking about them online. I know absolutely nothing about the college baseball tournaments or where they’re held.
