Earlier last week, <\/span>Viz Media<\/span><\/a> revealed that it is launching a new one-shot submissions portal<\/a> in the United States, as part of its Viz Originals initiative. The new platform aims to produce short original one-shot stories created by writers based in the U.S.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Hisashi Sasaki<\/b>, a former editor-in-chief of Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump, will work with and guide creators whose submissions are selected, with Viz Media digitally publishing the successful one-shots. This may also lead to the company licensing and establishing an official intellectual property to turn the story into an anime, and produce consumer related products.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
