RECORD OF VISITORS TO THE 2017 MANGA FAIR
Although manga and anime originated in Japan and at first were almost completely unknown in
therestoftheworld,theyhavebecomeaglobalphenomenonandtheirpopularityisgrowingevery
day.Theybothsharemanycharacteristicslikeexaggeratedphysicalfeatures,butareultimatelytwo
different things. Manga are Japanese comics, typically published in black and white, while anime
are Japanese animated cartoons that are usually broadcast on television. The confusion between
the two arises mostly because it’s often the case that the same story will have both an anime and a
manga version.
Perhaps it is because of the love that Japanese people have for all things kawaii (cute), that most
mangaandanimearededicatedtoyoungpeople.Theprotagonistsareusuallyyoungcharactersthat
go through many adventures. That could explain why teenagers are so fond of manga and anime
today. Moreover, although characters often live unreal situations, it seems it is easy for teenagers
to identify with them.
