Anime is Japanese "animation", shortened, "anime". It originated as early as 1917. Manga is a form of comics and print cartoons that were developed in Japan in the late 19th century.

Although they are two different forms of comic and animation, they are both an art form that have been highly cherished and celebrated in Japan for a long time and in the recent past here in the United States.

Manga is read by just about everyone in Japan, all ages, and includes a vast number of different genres, from action, sports, fantasy, romance to, as well satirical, business and commerce.

In the 1950s manga comics quickly became the most popular form of print publishing and began exploding all over the world, becoming a major market and highly profitable for the Japanese economy.

Although in normal cases the comics are represented in black and white, sometimes they are also available in full color.

Coming in magazine form, they often contain many stories within a single publication. To keep the masses captivated, they use suspense by including half stories, which will be continued in the next issue. Much like the American comic books, manga keeps readers hooked and looking forward to the next issue.
