Manga is a Japanese style of graphic
novels and comic books that is aimed at adults as well as
children. In manga, the characters have oversized eyes and the
drawings are often in black and white. Manga stories are told in
serial form. Manga style descends from Japanese aesthetics, though
many see the influence of American comic books brought into Japan
during after World War II. Katsushika Hokusai coined the term
manga in 1814 to describe a free-flowing, quirky style.
Manga style has been popular since 1984 and literally means
involuntary pictures.
Anime is a Japanese style of animation for television and film,
often based on previously published manga. Anime appears in Japan
in 1985 as the Japanese word for animation, taken from the French
verb, animé. So, manga is printed material and anime is video
material.
