the diffence between manga and comic books

2 years 7 months ago

" ecristy85 youre right but you see literally translated, manga means "random (or whimsical) pictures". The word first came into common usage after the publication of the 19th century Hokusai Manga, containing assorted drawings from the sketchbook of the famous ukiyo-e artist Hokusai. However, gi-ga (lit. "funny pictures") drawn in the 12th century by various artists contain many manga-like qualities such as emphasis on story and simple, artistic lines.

Manga developed from a mixture of ukiyo-e and Western art movements. When the United States began trading with Japan, Japan tried to modernise itself and catch up with the rest of the world. Thus, they imported Western artists to teach their students things such as line, form and colour (things which were never concentrated on in ukiyo-e as the idea behind the picture was normally considered more important). Manga at this period was known as Ponchi-e (Punch-picture) and, like it's British counterpart Punch magazine, mainly depicted humour and political satire in short 1 or 4 picture format.

Manga as people know it in the 20th and 21st centuries only really came into being after Dr. Tezuka Osamu, widely acknowledge to be the (god) father of story based manga. In 1945, Tezuka who was studying medicine, saw a war progaganda animation film called "Momotarou Uminokaihei" whose style was largely copied from Disney Fantasia. Though a war propaganda film, it was also a children's film, so the main theme of the film was peace and hope in the time of darkness. Tezuka was greatly inspired by the film and later decided to become a comic artist, which at the time (and somewhat even now) was an unthinkable choise for someone who qualified as a medical doctor. He later commented that a part of reason he went to medical school was to avoid conscrption and he actually didn't like seeing blood.

Before Tezuka, most Japanese comic was drawn on one or four picture format dealing with social or political satire or humour. Tezuka introduced film like story telling and character in comic format in which each short-film like episode is part of larger story arch. And just like film, only text in Tezuka's comic was character's spoken line. Moreover, the each pictures in pages flow from top right to bottom left so that people could see and read comic in speed reading manner (note that Japanese is written in top to dow-right to left order). Tezuka also adopted Disney like facial feature where eyes, mouth, eyebrows or nose are drawn in very exagerated manner to add more distinct characterisation with fewer lines which made his prolific output possible. This somewhat revived the old ukiyoe like tradition where the picture is a projection of idea rather than actual physical reality.

Initially, his comic was published in children's magazine. Soon, this become specialised weekly or monthly comic magazine, which is now the foundation of Japanese comic industry. Tezuka adopted his comic to almost all film genres at the time. His manga series cover from action adventure (eg. Jungle Emperor Leo) to serious drama (eg. Black Jack) to science fiction (eg. Astro Boy), horror (eg. dororo, mitumega tooru.). It is often commented that any manga genre which Tezuka did not create was done by someone who was desperately trying to find something Tezuka wasn't doing. Though he is known in the West as a creator of children's animation, Astro Boy, most of his comic had some very mature and sometimes dark undertone. Most of his comic's central character had tragic background. Atom (Astro Boy) was created by a grieving scientist trying to recreate imitation of his dead son, who then later abandon the boy. Kimba's father was killed by human hunters and the theme of conflict between humand and nature was a reccuring theme for the comic. Hyakkimaru in Dororo was born severly crippled because his father offered 48 part of infant body to 48 demons. Actually, some commentater criticise Tezuka's somewhat excessive use of tragic dramatisation of story. As manga generation of children grew up to youth and later adult, the market for comic expanded accordingly and manga soon become a major cultural force of Japan. Tezuka also contributed to social acceptace of manga which was attacked by parent's group much in the same fashion as the modern computer game. His qualification as a medical doctor as well as his serious story line were used to deflect criticism that manga was a vulgar and undesirable for children. He also mentored number of important comic artists, such as Fujiko Fujio (creator of Doraemon), Akatuka Fujio and Shoutarou Ishinomori.

Another important trend in manga was gekiga. Between 60s and 70s, there were two form of comic serialisation. One was manga format, which was based on sales of comic magazine. The other was gekiga, which was based on rental format, much in the same line as the modern movie rental. Manga was based on weekly or biweekly magazine so the demand for prompt production and deadline was paramount. Consequently, most manga artist adopted Tezuka-style drawing where character are drawin in simpler but exagerated manner most typified by large round eyes which is regarded as a defining feature of Japanese comic in the west. Gekiga on the other hand did not have any deadline so the artist could use much more detailed drawing and more realistic portraial of character with much complex and mature story line. For this reason, gekiga was considered much more artistically superior. However, gekiga's rental business model eventually dies out in 70s, while comic artists in manga format significantly improved their graphic quality and story. Eventually, gekiga was absorbed into manga and now are used to describe manga style which does not use cartoonish drawing. The most famous gekiga style manga in the West is Akira.

Though roughly equivalent to the American comic book, manga holds more importance in Japanese culture than comics do in American culture. In economic term, a weekly sales of comic in Japan outsell entire annual output of American comic industry. Several major manga magazine sell several 1,000,000 copies each per week. Manga is well respected both as an art form and as a form of popular literature though it has not reached acceptance of "higher" art gener like film or music. Like its American counterpart, some manga has been criticized for being violent and sexual. For example, number of film adaptation of manga such as Ichi the Killer or Old Boys was are or mature rated in the west. However, there have been no official inquiries or laws that have tried to limit what can be drawn in manga, except for vague decency laws that apply to all published materials, stating that "overly indecent materials should not be sold." This freedom has allowed artists to draw manga for every age group and about every topic.

And its not just the equivalent but manga also as a certain format that distinguishes from plain comics like the comom fact you read it right to left and on and on.

And now that i remember and im on the subject the word Dōjinshi wicth im sure you all have heard before its also a vertent of manga but its only given to unofficial fan made comics, that comtinue series and etc.. The trem means dōjin means "literary group", "coterie", or "clique", and shi wicth means "magazine" or "distribution" and normaly dôjinshi artists called themselfs a circle.

And to finish here are some genders of manga: Gekiga, La nouvelle manga, Semi-alternative, Mahō shōjo, Mecha, Moé, Shōjo-ai or Yuri, Shōnen-ai or Yaoi, and in sure theres bound to be some more well hope it helped a little cause manga and comic books are totaly diferent expet the fact its meant to intertain and its drawn art lol.

Purpose of Life

Being the hated pessimist I am, I dont believe I have a purpose in living. But I can make one.. But Im too lazy to.. Id rather live out my life virtually unknown and have thowe around me feel all special for having a better reason for living. So inadvertently, my life is to make other people happy...

So can i ask if you have no purpose on life, how come you say "id rather live..." cause i mean if you have no purpose on life you dont live?

Or you said that cause like most of us, you never thought about this matter that sereously, and you kinda confused?
