Manga and Anime

What is manga? Some people think that manga is a "mangga" (which means Mango in some countries such as Malaysia.) Anyway, the manga that I am going to write about was actually a Japanese words which mean comics. In Japan, almost everyone of all ages from children, teenagers, adults and elders(probably?) read manga. Manga has become a large part of daily life of community in Japan. Furthermore, Manga is also very popular in other countries outside Japan. Since manga is define as comic, what about the comic artist? In Japanese, comic artists or cartoonist are called Mangaka.

ANIME.

The meaning of anime is a Japanese Animation. Like manga, anime is also very popular in Japan and other countries

So there are some debates among the manga and anime lovers (anime manga fans or something like that.) about the terms of Manga and Anime. Example:-

Random people: //saw you watch anime// OH you watch cartoon?

Anime/Manga lover: THIS IS ANIME!

Situation which similar with the above. Basically anime and manga are terms that used to describe Japanese animation and Japanese comic.

From my point of view, Anime and Manga are very popular among all ages regardless gender because of the genres. There are many genres for anime and manga such as action, romance, fantasy, science-fiction, comedy, slice of life, mystery and many more.

Furthermore, the arts and illustrations of manga and anime are very attractive and unique. The arts are usually includes big eyes characters, spiky hairs, small nose, small lips, pointy shape face/chin, long legs and arms and many colors used.

(Example of anime. Title : Kuroko no Basket. I recommend this anime, so inspiring!)

So anyway, I'm going to keep this brief and simple. I am not that knowledgeable about this too but I love it so much and I want to enjoy them always. I hope anyone who might does not know about anime and manga know a little bit about them by reading my blog. Even though this is about animation and comic, it is worth to know about it because they are actually quite nice and have some nice quotes and inspiring too!
