    Certain manga discuss serious topics and can interest an adult audience

    Have you ever seen Oldboy?
    That movie was one of the best films made in the last decade. The film has based on a Manga and kicks serious ass. Check it out some time!!!

    It is hard to find good american comics written geared towards a female audience. I can find lots of manga that I enjoy that let me see the relationships and the emotions of the characters. Honestly, I prefer the art as well.

    I prefer the manga genre over american comics because, well, it’s not really ONE genre. American comics, while interesting to some, are aimed mostly at male fans, while manga is directed both boys, girls, and adults. With manga I read a heartfelt romance story, the flip over and read the newest issue of Naruto. Also, the drawing style varies a lot from person to person. Some people draw very realistically, while some draw their characters very cutesy with big eyes. American comics usually revolve around one general style.

    Western comics can also discuss serious topics and still interest adult audiences. I don’t see anyone making a legitimate feature film inspired by manga.

    Their eyes are normal size, and their mouths are usually closed. :|

    The art, mainly. It’s full of delicious detail. They are also more serious than most manga. Their plots are often less repetitive or have more thought put into them, too.

    American comics influenced lots of japanese manga creators.

    the art is far superior. the fans arent a bunch of nutwhacks. the story isnt pointless and repetitive, nor girly(no offense, ladies). not to mention the characters are much more well thought of. to many skinny little badboys in manga, but theres never any huge, muscular protagonist. not to mention the fact that pornography has far too large a part in manga culture, therefore i find american comics far better….
