Masashi Kishimoto is not as rich as I thought he was.

He's richer than most of us. And he deserves the money for 15 years of hard work

But but but I didn't like the way he ended the series so I want his movie to flop and his manga sales to plummet!!! :(

Dude the last 50 chapters sucked balls but he did a good job for most part, we should appreciate his work. HunterXHunter is on a hiatus despite being a good manga. Kishimoto always managed to deliver the chapters each week. That's a great and difficult accomplishment

He's still incredibly wealthy, and he deserves it.

That's significantly less than I expected....it looks as though Kishi is getting shafted in terms of royalties.

His readers are mostly the ones who read free stuff. :|

How much money have you paid to read the manga? Don't answer the question, just ask yourself :|

I would've thought Kishi would be worth more than that, but it's not a small amount by any means.

Even Stan Lee is just a 30 million USD more than Kishi. But Stan Lee is more popular than Kishi. And his real life movie is blockbuster where is Kishi never made a real life movie.

I think Stan Lee should be a Billionaire like JK Rowling, not just a millionaire.

Even comic is hard to get a free read compared to manga

Compared to that Kishi is not bad either

Also, it's Japan. 20 Mil usd is a ridiculous amount of yen. Considering there's a lot less people to buy your stuff in Japan it's really not too bad.
