Since avatar the last airbender graphic novels,the Norwegian graphic novels like Nordlys have been added to mangaupdate is it time to add the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels in this website since it's influenced from shonen manga along with fighting video games form the 90s including Goldie Vance and other western webtoons?

Even on the website you linked it refers to it as a graphic novel so probably not. When it came out it was marketed as a comic if I recall, not "manga" or oel or "amerimanga" etc, in my opinion it has no business being added to this website no matter whatever influences there are.

Avatar was marketed as manga when it came out through Tokyopop. I don't get why this is such a difficult thing to understand. I don't know Nordic but my searches really don't bring back much besides the literal description for the company in mangaupdates, so perhaps the amount of Nordic manga is suspect especially since its 2018+. Nowhere can I find on the company's website that they consider or are trying to appeal to the same kind of people that buy manga etc.

Good point, I suggest we tell the administrators to remove the Norwegian graphic novels from the site including the avatar books that doesn't come from tokyopop
