Well its simple. Printing it Manga style translates to small little book(less paper = less money). Printing in black and white helps. Add in the fact that Palladium recycles so much art and you can see where they can keep costs down.

Sure other game companies books are costing more and more. But they are inovating things. I can't remember the last time Wizards has recycled a piece of art work more then once. Most of the big companies are printing in full color, glossy page and hard cover.
