A manga is a manga or graphic novel that originated in Japan. Most manga follow a style that developed in Japan in the late 19th century and the form dates back to the very old Japanese art before that. The term manga is used in Japan to refer to both manga and anime.
Manga reading makes your mind more flexible because of how it encourages you to read right to left, left to right, images, Japanese onomatopoeia, Japanese cultural details, and more. This allows you to be more open to different cultures too. Don't sell manga reading short.
