“One Million Manga Pages” shows 1,074,790 unique pages from 883 different manga series from Japan, Korea, and China. The series includes both popular long-running titles such as Naruto and One Piece, as well as several short-lived titles. Custom software that implements computer vision methods was used to measure selected visual characteristics of every page. Another custom program mapped the positioned images of pages on a 30,000 x 30,000 pixels canvas according to two such features (X-axis: standard deviation. Y-axis: entropy.) The visualization shows which graphical choices are more commonly used by manga artists (the central part of the “cloud” of pages) and which appear much more rarely (bottom and left parts).
