Same goes for anime, Spongebob, Simpsons, Shrek, etc are all anime. All forms of animation is anime and that's what I call them when I speak to my parents. This is because there is no word for "cartoon" in Japanese and anime comes from the word "animation". Most weebs oustide of Japan who can’t speak Japanese just think Japanese cartoons = anime

    What people dont realize is in japanese culture manga is the main form of entertainment. 99% of anime is adapted from manga. That is why the manga is sometimes "better" than the anime. Also, manga is way cheaper to make so more effort can be put in and it can be made more quickly than anime. This allows manga have no filler.
    An anime adapted from a manga is considered "bonus" that is why many anime adaptations that come from manga are shorter, have tons of filler so the animation stays far enough behind the manga and have can have a different plot towards the end. The manga is always considered cannon over the anime since its the source material.
    Basically, if you're tired of filler, tired of censoring (usually a manga has more blood and gore btw they censor the animation more so kids can watch) and tired of your favorite series going on hiatus out of the blue you need to start reading the manga.

    Thanks for giving Manga some love. It definitely has some great characters, stories, and overall entertainment that people can enjoy. They've just got to be open to the medium and find the right series to them. Hopefully it becomes a proper mainstream platform just like how gaming has been, superheroes have definitely started becoming so, and anime/manga can make the proper step.

    Usually the biggest concern I hear against reading manga is that it's a skill. Some people have trouble interpreting black and white images if there's too much going on. (Which even manga that aren't like that have a tendency to pack a lot of panels onto each page toward the end.) And then reading right-to-left is simple enough most of the time, but if the mangaka starts organizing and shaping their panels in unconventional ways, it can get a little difficult. And then lastly, trying to interpret movement in motionless panels tends to be the most difficult. I can't count how many times a chapter of manga was mostly a fight scene and then I hear someone say "I couldn't really tell what happened. Just who won and what they said in the fight." This video didn't really touch onto those concerns. But at the same time, there's not much to be said. You can't just be like "Oh you're having trouble reading manga? Well sucks for you, it's a good form of media and you should force yourself to enjoy it."

    I didn't wanna read manna comic books because I thought it would be hard for me to read backwards and reading comic books...I get Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Superhero Society because I grew up with Greg AND with I grew up with all the DC characters like Batman, Superman and Woman. Then I couldn't fine anything to read at the Graphic Novel Section so I grabbed two books off the manga shelve and I got Yu Gi Oh Zexal and My Hero Academia and both were great ! I only have 5 stories so far. But you don't need a where to start video for manga just get Volume One of whatever you wanna read a go on. Regular Comic Books are over crowded with superheroes which is great but it is hard to avoid superhero comic books. Walking Dead, Saga and others aren't like that but not things that are gonna happen in real life. Most Archie comic books and Manga are a way to avoid that.
