I'm looking to find some good Manga sites, where I can read the stuff.. because someone I know reads Manga and I wanna see if I like it. Preferably like.. Ranma 1/2 and Chobits.

Manga DOES fall under Anime, right?
:x

**CheshireCat** · 09-28-2004, 01:43 AM

No, manga is a comic book, Anime is a cartoon.

But it's an anime comic book, no? And does anyone know where I can find Chobitz and Ranma 1/2?

**Lycshiftz** · 09-28-2004, 09:24 PM

and yet again thats wrong.

Manga is just better drawn anime.

**whyseewhy** · 10-01-2004, 02:43 PM

wat is manga?i dun noe....

**Lycshiftz** · 10-01-2004, 02:50 PM

omg... how many god damn times to i have to explain it...

Japanimation: A form of deformed artwork where people have bigger eyes or bigger boobs or both.

Manga and Anime are both of shoots of this. Manga is the better drawn version and yes manga can be a cartoon.

Anime is a cartoon and usually horribly drawn via Dragonball.

Let me put this one to bed.

Anime = Japanese for animation
Manga = Japanese for comics.

Anime = Moving Manga on TV
Manga = Still manga in comic book form.

They are both done in a particular style eg big eyes, purple hair. Ie they are the same thing, so CheshireCat and KellerD are Right and Lycshiftz is Wrong.
Often the same story appears in anime and manga.
I offer this as evidence. :

BTW If I am wrong on this count, I will eat my PC

**n3kk1d-l337** · 10-11-2004, 03:34 AM

Definitions of the following:

Manga

Anime *Note just read the first definition.

**dim_sum** · 10-11-2004, 08:03 AM

I didn't know that anime was based on futuristic robots....:

Lol, I think that's a little wrong because there's a few exceptions where it's not based on the future.

**A|fzZz** · 10-11-2004, 09:16 AM

oh...now i know what it is...yea...it rox..

**trayne** · 10-21-2004, 10:39 PM
