More like "semi-monopoly". Like various other media companies, the Sony Corp is way too big. The Sony Corp has has about $193,661,051,300 in total assets. To me, they should be at least $150 billion less. |

Not in the US but they do have a manga publishing division in Europe thanks to Crunchyroll buying a majority stake of Viz Media Europe (which owned Kazé) in 2019 back when they were still part of WarnerMedia. The rebrand took effect last year and just like with ex-Funimation sets here, you have anime & manga releases in France & Germany with Crunchyroll's logo all over them now instead of Kazé. Example |

Also, since they have bought Right Stuf!, Sony has become one of the larger retail distributors of manga from all US companies.

The DOJ actually did take a long look at the CR-Funi deal. They were concerned it limited the options of Japanese studios looking to license their content here. https://www.theverge.com/2021/3/24/22349203/doj-crunchyroll-investigation-sony-att I think the departures at TRSI are what tend to happen with a merger. Many of the administrative functions can be handled at the corporate level as they find efficiencies and redundancies. At this point, I wonder if Rightstuf will even stay in Iowa. I don't know what their warehouse lease looks like or any of that. |
