A manufacturing apparatus, including: two electrodes whose forwardmost end portions are opposed to each other; a power supply which applies a voltage between the electrodes in order to generate discharge plasma in a discharge area between the electrodes; and plural magnets that form a magnetic field in the generation area of the discharge plasma by generating a magnetic field from a magnetic pole surface of each of the plural magnets that are arranged to have the magnetic pole surfaces thereof opposed to one imaginary axis within a space; and of the two electrodes, at least a part of one electrode is located in an area surrounded by: an imaginary plane formed by connecting end portions of the magnetic pole surfaces of the plural magnets on one side in a direction of the imaginary axis.
