Anime & Manga Asked by user54389 on October 2, 2021
How big a portion of anime gets adapted from different sources like manga, light novels, visual novels, and video games in general?
Has there ever been published a study or numbers that looked into how many anime shows have their origins in the different media and drawn a comparison between them?

Not included are adaptations from other media like comics, manhua, manwha or other anime.
