YouTube star CoryxKenshin has made a direct appeal to streaming giant Netflix and renowned animation studio Mappa, urging them to adapt his manga, Monsters We Make, into an anime series. The announcement, which quickly gained traction among fans, signals CoryxKenshin’s growing ambitions beyond his success as a content creator.
Taking to his platform, CoryxKenshin expressed his vision for Monsters We Make and why Netflix and Mappa would be the ideal partners to bring his work to life. “I believe Netflix and Mappa could make something truly legendary with Monsters We Make,” he stated, referencing Mappa’s recent string of hits, including Jujutsu Kaisen and Attack on Titan’s final season.
Monsters We Make is CoryxKenshin’s original manga project that delves into a world where humanity faces supernatural threats born from its darkest fears. The narrative focuses on a group of young warriors who must confront these “monsters” while dealing with their own personal struggles. Its themes of bravery, trauma, and perseverance resonate deeply with CoryxKenshin’s fanbase, who have eagerly embraced the manga’s concept since its initial announcement.
CoryxKenshin, who boasts over 17 million subscribers on YouTube, has long been an advocate for anime culture, regularly featuring gaming content and reviews inspired by Japanese animation. His appeal to Netflix and Mappa is significant, given their influence in producing and streaming high-profile anime adaptations globally.
Fans of the YouTuber and aspiring manga creator have already taken to social media to amplify his message, with hashtags like #MonstersWeMakeAnime and #NetflixMappa trending across platforms. One user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “CoryxKenshin x Mappa would be insane. Monsters We Make deserves this adaptation!”
While neither Netflix nor Mappa has publicly responded, the move highlights the growing influence of internet personalities in shaping entertainment trends. CoryxKenshin’s ability to unite his massive audience in support of Monsters We Make could prove influential in catching the attention of production studios.
Anime adaptations of creator-led projects are not unprecedented, with recent examples like One Punch Man and Chainsaw Man proving successful in both manga and anime markets. CoryxKenshin’s pitch aligns with this trend, blending his unique storytelling with the visual impact of an anime adaptation.
As excitement builds, CoryxKenshin’s supporters remain hopeful that Netflix and Mappa will take notice. Whether the studios will greenlight the project remains to be seen, but the YouTube star’s passion for seeing Monsters We Make come to life is undeniable.
