Anime and Manga

Anime is commonly defined as animation originating in Japan.

Manga consist of comics and print cartoons, in the Japanese language and conforming to the style developed in Japan in the late 19th century.

It is characterized by distinctive characters and backgrounds, that visually and thematically set it apart from other forms of animation.

Anime and manga share many characteristics, exaggerated physical features such as large eyes, big hair and elongated limbs... and dramatically shaped speech bubbles, speed lines and onomatopoeic, exclamatory typography.
