basic information

Manga are Japanese comics. In Japan, there are comics covering every possible topic from recipes to travel guides and from science fiction to history. But they are not just for children; there are manga for people of almost every age and interest group. For example, it is not uncommon to see business men reading thick comic books in commuter trains.

Anime are Japanese cartoons. Japanese manga and anime (e.g. Sailor Moon and Pokemon) have become popular around the world.
