Manga Betting

[Obito]

is there a protagonist on RoR? if there is, wouldn't it be easier to bet in favor of the protagonist? since the fight is to the death I doubt they'd the protagonist. if there isn't a protagonist, then, maybe, but sometimes plots make it so easy to guess who is going to win or not.

I am currently reading RoR and I can confirm that there is no main protagonist, they are just fighting against each other and currently the fight is Buddha versus Zerofuku, there is no clear winner yet it could be betted on with your friend if you like to.

I don't think that manga is cool for betting because the outcome is always predictable , Bettors will Win mostly and that is not the concept of Being in gambling because the house usually wins and not the players.

But this is cool , imagine that You will bet against Monkey the Lupin and the Government armies

I was reading Kengan Omega and Records of Ragnarok and I think that it can be used for potential betting because the story is ongoing and it is a fight which means that we can put our bets on who wins or whether the round is a draw. RoR has a predetermined roster though so you can only bet on who wins the match and no in-between since it is a fight to the death. Does anyone think that it can be a good idea to bet on the fights that only the writers know who will win?

I doubt such betting would ever be able to take off for a few reasons but as already mentioned, you cannot bet on something where the outcome is already pre-determined by a single writer. If the writer ever found out they could make big money, then they could easily bet on the winner before they even release the next "battle". Even if they were super honest and kept the result hidden from those around them, they would instantly become a target for hackers who could also profit off the information in the same way. There is plenty of room for non-gaming bets going on, you could head over to smarkets to see some examples - they have a "Current Affairs" and "TV & Entertainment" section. The sort of bets they allow cannot be easily influenced by one or two people alone, like Who will win Eurovision? Will self-driving vehicles be allowed on EU roads in 2021?

I agree.

There's no way that the author wouldn't know about it if there's already a huge betting scenario on his novel, for sure he would do something about it, either he'll manipulate the story in his favor if he's gonna bet too using different name and identity which would ruin the original flow of the manga or he'll decided to stop it because people are betting on it which wasn't his purpose.

Edit: I didn't mean a large scale betting it is more of an informal, like how you do a bet with your friends and nothing more than that.

Maybe that games are not used for gambling, but maybe that will happen in the future as the gambling industry grows fast in this era and the gambling owner can have many new ideas on what they can use to have a new gambling game. But if that games can be used for gambling and only the writers know who will win, I guess that will not be good as the match can be set by them and win the character or players they like. That will not be fair for people who play that games.

I don't see anything wrong with manga betting, from my view it's kind of similar to betting on WWE where it's scripted but sportsbooks still allow betting on these events since there are gamblers willing to bet on it. You could probably do it on a site like betmoose since they allow their bettors to start their own specific bet.

I don't think that manga is cool for betting because the outcome is always predictable , Bettors will Win mostly and that is not the concept of Being in gambling because the house usually wins and not the players.

If sportsbooks are willing to open a market just for manga they'd probably put a low limit on the lines so even if it gets abused the losses won't be too damaging for them.

This would be a very niche thing but I don't see anything wrong with it. As long as it's just betting between friends then we really don't have to worry about manipulation of the final outcome. It would be like betting on pro wrestling. You know that the result is predetermined but only a few people know this result ahead of time.

^ Just because this could be a cooking show if in case! You would only take advantage of you have a deep connection with the writer. Also, betting on manga will never work as gambling has to be fast-paced most of the time. Gamblers are playing because they do not want to wait. They want results asap. So I think it would be better to place bets in eSports science compared to this. Informal betting would not be the best idea here, as the possible community might be too small. So I would suggest if you may find a better idea, let us see and talk about it.

Yes, in my opinion this is a good idea.  You can place bets on the victory of one or another Manga hero (Manga Betting).

The fact that the writer (screenwriter) knows how the battle will end is not an obstacle.  You can make anonymous bets.  Until the end of the battle, no one will know - on the victory of which Manga hero this or that player has bet.  

Cryptocurrencies allow the creation of smart contracts through which such bets can be made.  

After the end of the battles, the winning bets are revealed and the players - the winners receive their winnings.

Well that's a good point , i have enjoyed WWE since childhood and just learn about the script when I'm in college.

So yeah let us know when there is available spot on betting for this Manga thing and i will gladly try and win.

If you and your friends like manga and betting then why not. Besides, you all have an equal chance of winning.

If you want your idea to be something more, try to find manga supporters among the developers.

[Betwrong]

Does anyone think that it can be a good idea to bet on the fights that only the writers know who will win?

Technically, NO but it's no different when betting on Oscars, International Pageants, etc. where someone who has the authority already knows the result.

Regardless, it's up to you if you want to bet on that if there's an open betting on it.

Do you see some crypto-gambling sites offering betting on that?

I can't say about International Pageants, but with Oscars the outcome isn't known beforehand to so many people as in the case of a book. The famous incident on the stage of the Oscars 2017 can serve as a proof of that:





Too many people, like illustrators, editors etc. know what happens in a book well before the book is published.

So, on a large scale this kind of betting isn't a good idea. But on the level of friends/family members/neighbors, why not?

If this would be a personal betting event then it is an interesting idea among the fans who love to read manga and gamble for betting on the outcome of the next story. The thing is manga stories could be leaked, I mean if the manga serialization was adapted from games or novels. People would definitely know what would happen in the next chapter if they had been read the story through the novel in the first place.

No matter who is the winner, if we are betting between friends, we might not feel too regret because we know one of us can be the winner.
That will depend on how good we play on that game and if we can play together with our friend in one place, that will be a pleasure to us.
Even if the manipulations can happen at the end of the result, sometimes we do not care because we only want to play the game with our friends.
But it is better if the result will not get manipulations to be more attractive to see the result and the winner.

Sounds right, as long as you have a friend/set of friends who are willing to place bets here, sure. Just as usual, mostly your cousins would be the ones who would be willing to do it with you.

I still remember the days when I and my cousins would place bets (real cash) on our school mates kid fights, we were in primary school. Associating it with your post, I guess the principle is the same. As long as two parties are willing to place bets, there will be no problem with it.

Hahaha, I miss that day too when I was a child.
I also have experience betting with some friends.
That is not for a fight but that is about what a girl will react when she got a flower or something like that.
The winner will win some money or get a lunch free and that was fun to do that thing.
That will not have manipulation because that moment is real and we can not arrange what will happen.
I wonder what it will be like if the betting will use manga.

[Xinarae*]

We have a lot of fun betting with friends and not every bet has any tricks everyone plays to win but this game will be different with manga betting. The rules of the game are also quite different from baseball if the rule is to strike or to miss, then all those who have bet against him on the other hand if the bet can be won in the case of winning if everyone passes to bet then he will win and all his opponents will be his.

A community or group of people who are fan of Manga comics can surely have personal bets between them to predict the outcome.Because if there were some market for manga bets it could be easily manipulated by the writers and win huge profits.You cannot make bets whose outcome is predictable by some individuals.But if you are taking about personal bets then you can surely have that option.

Glad you cleared it out. All or most of the impressions is that you suggest that Manga Betting can be featured nor be done in existing gambling websites. IN small scale betting, yes it is possible for like less than a hundred bets and to those who generally is close to you and a fan of what you would bet on, a simple fun game to be specific. But when it would be a gamble of huge bets, I guess it could not really be fun to gamble at all. Lastly, Manga Betting still relies on the Author's ideas and can easily be predicted when some leaks of issues are published by anonymous people online.

Maybe they don't know the result beforehand in Oscars, but the outcome is so subjective like a fairytale/comic book stories ending. It's possible to bet in such things, but it's very hard to predict the correct result, because the variables are infinite and they don't rely on logic or facts, but on someone's imagination and creativity.
And in Oscars it's all about personal preferences of the judges. They just need to be creative to justify their decision, exactly like the writers mentioned above. You can't predict the scenario and pick the correct film being just technical. Although by a decade ago I think it was different, because there were films which really shone among others, but now all of them are similar, average movies.

When you put it that way I think anything could be used as betting material for it.
I remember growing up my siblings and I would guess what would be the next commercial on T.V and the one who have the highest score would be the first to play on our P.S1.
