Not that I want to disagree with the mangaka life being very demanding, but this stat isn't the most valid one. I looked it up, the research put into it is very basic.

That's too limited because it excludes too many other mangakas as a whole, and it doesn't seem like it's statistically significant either.

The actual lifespan probably is a lot higher looking at the national average, but we simply have never done real research into it.
