Manga Store

'Not only did I reincarnate to another world, I also got a system. No, a store,' Levi thought, excitedly as he tried to open the store from his mind.

To his surprise a very neat green interface opened up. Looking at this interface, Levi noticed in the center it said Manga Store, at the top right, was a dollar balance that was at $0. And in the center, taking up most of the interface were hundreds of manga, sorted alphabetically.

'This shit is real...' thought Levi looking at the manga in the green window. He could notice hundreds of manga.

The first manga on the list was called [A Channel] Levi never read this manga, nor heard of it, with his little hand he tried to touch this manga to see if the screen was touch screen or something, but his hand passed as if there was nothing. Giving a mental command, he selects this manga, which gives a short synopsis and its price.

Its Synopsis is as follows: Tooru, Run's childhood best friend gets into the same high school as her friend. When she goes to tell her, she finds a somewhat violent situation between her old friend and two new friends Run: Yuuko and Nagi.

'I don't remember reading this manga...' thought Levi, shaking his head. He noticed that its price was 5,000 USD, even so, this price was only for volume 1, and this manga had 8 volumes so its total value would be 40,000 USD. He didn't know if it was a good price since he didn't know this manga and how many copies it managed to sell, but for his current moment to get so much money would be impossible.

Even for an adult with a normal job to get that amount of money would not be something easy, since the average salary in Japan is 2500 to 3000 USD per month, and a year would be between about 30,000 USD to 36,000 USD. Even working a year with a normal job would not be able to buy the 8 volumes in full, plus he would have to save his salary completely and not spend it in the least.

However, you can buy Volume 1 and then publish it. This way you will make money with that one volume and then buy more.

This Manga Store solved all your previous problems. With this store, he can know every detail of his favorite manga, which will make him concentrate on drawing and making a masterpiece, and he can bring all the works of his past world to this world, revolutionizing the industry much more than he had thought.

Levi kept scrolling through all the manga, 'There are too many. Don't tell me there are all the manga from my past life...' Levi thought in amazement. He had been scrolling for quite a while and was still on the letter A. He also noticed very old manga that he didn't recognize either. He began to doubt if he was an otaku since he still couldn't find any manga known to him.

'Finally, one I know,' thought Levi stopping at a manga called [Air Gear] this was a manga from his past life that he read completely and enjoyed quite a lot, still he didn't remember much of this manga, since the last time he read it was many years ago and when he finished it he never picked it up again, so it would be very difficult for him to bring it back to this world, that would be the case if he didn't own this manga store.

Air Gear had 37 volumes in total and was already finished, it managed to have an anime with 25 chapters, and the work sold more than 20 million copies.

Levi saw its price and noticed that each volume was worth 8,000 USD, higher than that of A Channel, buying all the volumes would cost a total of 296,000 USD, although this amount was considerable. If this manga managed to have the same success as in its past life, he would recover all the investment and not only that, he would become a millionaire, since he would earn millions of dollars. This is possible since each copy can sell between 5 to 10 USD.

However, knowing the exact profit is much more complicated since the author does not get the full percentage of the profit he sells per copy, since in addition to the author there is the publisher, the distributors, and others involved such as translators, author's assistants, designers, etc.

As he was scrolling quickly, he stopped at a manga called [Barakamon] which he had read in its entirety in his past life. It was about comedy and recounting life. It was about the life of Handa a 23-year-old calligrapher who moves to a remote island in Japan to clear his stressed mind.

This manga had 18 volumes and was adapted to anime, and even had a spin-off called Handa-kun that tells the story of his adolescence. It managed to sell 1.8 million copies. Its price per volume was 2,500 USD.

'I still need to grow up before I can start drawing and especially get money to buy this manga,' thought Levi, annoyed that he was only two years old. Out of curiosity, he turned to the letter D, looking for one of the most famous manga of his past life: Dragon Ball.

Dragon Ball had 42 volumes in total which included up to the end of the Majin Buu saga. When Levi saw the price of each volume his expression changed drastically. Each volume was worth 100,000 USD which would be impossible for his current and most likely future self to buy.

He would need approximately 4 million USD to be able to buy it in full. However, he knew that this manga had sold over 300 million copies in its previous world, and that's not counting the profits that gave the anime, merchandising among other things. Which would make his investment successful.

'Before I can bring Dragon Ball to this world I need to become a millionaire...' thought Levi, knowing he would need to start with cheaper manga. As for manga like One Piece, Bleach, etc., he decided not to look at the price, as the prices would most likely be similar to Dragon Ball.

...

In the blink of an eye, Levi turned three years old when he came into this world. This year, his parents enrolled him in preschool. Even so, he couldn't meet Aqua and Ruby, so he shook his head. He even misbehaved in his first preschool to be changed, but he couldn't meet the twins either.

Now, Aqua and Ruby should be the same age as him, so it won't be long before the stalker murders Ai. In the preschools were children between 3 to 5 years old, so he was hopeful to find them, but he had no luck.

'Looks like it's a canon event,' thought Levi, shaking his head in one of the rooms of his preschool.

"Hey, Levi-chan... What are you thinking?" said a tender voice that made Levi look up and back to reality.

When he looked at the person, he noticed who it was right away, Frill Shiranui a girl, who was in the same preschool room as him, and mostly well known in the manga as a super popular and very talented girl.

In the manga, she appears as a multi-talented artist who shines as an actress, dancer, and singer.

She was now three years old, the same age as Levi. Despite being this young she spoke much better than the average three-year-old which surprised Levi.

Levi didn't think that by changing preschoolers he would meet a manga character.

"I don't think anything... Why do you keep calling me by my name?" asked Levi with a frown on his childish face.

In Japan, calling someone by their name indicates that they are a very trustworthy person, and is usually used by lifelong friends and family. In Shiranui's case, he has known her for only a few months, and he doesn't understand why this brat stuck to him so much since he came to this preschool. Although she is a three-year-old girl, Levi knows that her parents are wealthy people, so they must have taught her these basic formalities.

"Mm, I don't know... because it's funny," replied Frill with a smile.

'This kid just wants to annoy me...' thought Levi with a roll of his eyes.

He remembered that, in the manga, this girl's personality was weird and half outlandish, so he didn't give it any more importance and kept thinking about how to get money so he could start his way as the best mangaka in this world.
