I know I shouldn't be bringing up politic but.... Don't let Donald Trump think this is a manga (or even a manga biography) talking about him or his life just because it has a TRUMP title on there.

He is that stupid so, if it gets released in the US, they’ll probably change the title

The problem is...It's that some idiot(s) on Twitter/X and/or Truth Social may stumble upon this ANN article by random and that idiot(s) either on Twitter or Truth Social share this article and throw in misinformation about this prequel manga and somehow Trumpers/MAGAs think it's a manga talking about Trump's life or achievement and Trump somehow stumbled upon this and claim this manga is talking about him, this is why I worried about it and I don't like the idea of this manga getting a US release because Trumpers/MAGA may appropriate this in a way that make me and the rest of the anime/manga fandom that opposes Trump make us feel uncomfortable and unsettling.

this sounds like a made up problem that will never happen

That's what people used to say before the 2016 election and the 1st Trump administration, and to be honest, anything impossible can become possible thanks to him.

If the Trump manga ever get licensed in the states, they'll simply change the name to its stage play title, Cocoon ~Wish upon a star~, while Cocoon will get its subtitle from the stage play back, Cocoon ~Dark of the Moon~. The Trump series reference probably will be put somewhere less visible like how Delico's Nursery was marketed.
