MANGA ART

MICHELLE'S GENIUS HOUR

Manga art is a type of art that originated in Japan.
It was developed in the 19th century.

Manga is a comic that uses manga art as it's pictures.
Manga is read the opposite way we would read it, so pretty much backwards.
It is black and white.
Those of which who draw it is called mangakas.

Boys and young men became some of the earliest readers of manga after World War II. From the 1950s on, shōnen manga focused on topics thought to interest the archetypal boy, including subjects like robots, space-travel, and heroic action-adventure.

In 1969 a group of female manga artists created shōjo. The group included Moto Hagio, Riyoko Ikeda, Yumiko Oshima, Keiko Takemiya, and Ryoko Yamagishi. Thereafter, primarily female manga artists would draw shōjo for a readership of girls and young women.

Since the 1950s, manga has steadily become a major part of the Japanese publishing industry.

Anime is basically an animation of manga. Some things change, but the characters stay the same. Unlike manga, anime is colored.

Eshinbun Nipponchi
was the first manga published. It was not very popular, and so it ended after 3 issues.

Chibi is a type of manga art that shrinks proportions of the body. It also simplifies some parts, such as the hands. Many chibi styles have no nose.

Sometimes, Chibi style characters can have very weird expressions that I'm sure neither you nor I can do.
