Manga vs. American Comics Comments on: http://justtellmewhy.com/becauses/entertainment/manga-vs-american-comics/ Just tell me why is a new web social service 2.0. It is an hybrid between a social marker, a blog and a forum. It is based on dichotomies, a subject with a clear division of opinions. Each user stands for his own opinion, two choices. A survey with arguments. Dichotomies resolved by the majority.

American comics are dying because a lot of concepts are played out. The superhero can only be done is so many ways and most comics art style hardly differ from the other. In manga you will see a much larger variety of art and story. From realistic to borderline cartoonish, manga aims at much larger audiences. you'll rarely see a girl reading a marvel comic, but you'll see groups of girls and guys reading manga. Its why manga captivates and sells more. Both have there ups and downs and there are stereotypes but manga is better in my opinion. American comics are dying because a lot of concepts are played out.

Most American comics are about superheroes, a large part of the American culture. While reading Manga, I am introduced to a new culture. From monks to ninjas to death eaters, the stories generally tend to differ much moreso than American Comics. Although I must admit that I do love Batman.

American comics are too similar to a Michael Bay movie a lot of action and no substance whatsoever. While in manga you have a lot more of character developing and more variety in its histories. Also you have a beginning a middle and an End. In comics you have beginning middle lower sales, new beginning for same hero, middle lower sales and then again new beginning for same hero; is mind numbing.

When there are comedy, drama, slice-of-life, fantasy, si-fi, historical fiction, romance, horror, mystery, and tragedy American comics about teaching, surgery, cooking, spirals, and football directed towards young children, boys, girls, men, and women come get me. Until then I'll keep reading GTO, Franken Fran, Addicted to Curry, Uzumaki, and Eyeshield 21. Variety.

There is simply a greater variety of themes to fit any interest, from action to comedy to romance (if you're into that) and more. Also the characters are easier to relate to than many comics books here in America, and the characters tend to have greater development and depth. Just my 10 cents. I have to go with manga.

It also covers a wide scope of genres, from childish nonsense to action-packed stories about believing in oneself and the trusting in the bonds one created to the complexities of young love to the never-ending blood splattered violence to psychological thrillers to pure smut then to the end of life itself and rebirth...who could say manga is a narrow avenue. Reality has always been there, we need something new. Manga has a very stylized art style which has unique aesthetic values.

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.

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.
