Same meaning in Chinese simplified and traditional, and Japanese.
Dojins (å人; often romanized as doujin) are self-published works, including but not limited to comic books (manga), novels, fan guides, art collections, music and games. They are most often done by amateurs, but some professional artists participate as a way to publish material outside the regular publishing industry. The term basically means "literary group", "coterie", or "clique". Groups of dojin artists refer to themselves as a circle.
Dojins are made by artists who prefer to publish their own materials. Avid fans of dojins attend regular dojin conventions, the largest of which is called Comiket (short for "Comic Market") held in the summer and winter in Tokyo's Big Sight. Here, over 20 acres of dojin materials are bought, sold, and traded by attendees.
Over the last decade, the practice of creating dojins has expanded significantly, attracting thousands of creators and fans alike. Advances in personal publishing technology have also fueled this expansion by making it easier for dojin creators to write, draw, promote, publish, and distribute their works.
