Hiro Mashima
Hiro Mashima(真島 ヒロ,
born May 3, 1977) is a Japanese
manga artist. He gained success
with his first serial Rave, published
in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen
Manga from 1999 to 2005. His
currently ongoing Fairy Tail,
published in the same manga
since 2006, is experiencing even
greater popularity.
Guilds
There are 3 types of guilds –
Legal guilds
Dark guilds
Independent guilds
The main power in the Kingdom of Fiore is the King and his Government.
Under his order is the Magic Council. When Guilds cause destruction or other disturbances to the peace, it’s the responsibility of the Magic Council. The Council is made up of very powerful Mages, some of whom have the power to legalize or disband Guilds.
Legal and Dark guilds
A Legal Guild is one that has been approved and registered by the Magic Council while a Dark Guild is one that has not been approved by the Magic Council and is treated as a criminal organization.
In general, guilds are formed for individuals to take Jobs and earn Jewels, and also for them to train and grow stronger. Legal Guilds also work to defend against Dark Mages and other criminals.
Guild ranks
Guild master :- A Guild Master is a Mage who is the head of the guild that he or she is affiliated with. Typically, Guild Masters are very powerful, often being the strongest Mage in their guilds.

A brief introduction to manga & anime, looking at history, types and an explanation of some of the more popular genres From a presentation I made in 2008
Japanese popular culture is a highly interwoven industry, showing a level of interdependence and cooperation Hollywood would be jealous of.
Local Otaku,our member Keith Goode (www.austinotaku.com) will discuss one aspect of this culture, namely Anime; providing a brief history, reviewing of some of the stylizations and niches, and showing how it fits into the grand design of Japanese popular culture.
What have been some of the most popular animes?
What's popular now?
What is Anime?
Anime is the Japanese word for Animation. In Japan, the animation industry is much more towards the forefront than it is in the United States, and shows covering virtually every genre can be found in the form of television shows. Much like any other entertainment medium, anime can range from the very silly to the very serious, and is not necessarily intended for children or any specific age group.
Please join us for this unique discussion and slideshow presentation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
3. Origins
• In Japan, the word manga means comics of
any kind. In the West, we have adopted the
word manga to just mean Japanese comics, or
to an art style from late 19th century Japan.
• Manga have a long history in Japanese art and
culture, but the manga that is known today
has only been popular since just after World
War II.
4. The manga art style is distinctive and widely recognised.
While every artist is not the same, common features include:
• Large eyes
• Exaggerated facial expressions
• Elaborate costumes and hairstyles
Manga are nearly all printed in black and white, so manga artists use
halftones to shade and texture their pages. It is not uncommon for
whole panels to be without shade or tone, but this is possible
because of the way the images are outlined. Thick and thin lines are
used where halftones are not.
5. Magazines
• Manga are mostly published
through magazine anthologies that
are released weekly and
monthly, depending on the
magazine itself.
• The first manga magazine, Eshinbun
Nipponchi, was made in 1874 and
only ran for three issues. It had a
very simple style and was not
popular. It influenced some
successors, titled Kisho Shinbun and
Marumaru Chinbun. The first manga
magazine for boys, CREATED
1895, was titled Shonen Sekai. In
1905, Shojo Sekai, the girls’
counterpart, was created.
6. Volumes
• Manga volumes or series are released in
chapters and these chapters are what are
serialised – when there are three or four (or
more) chapters for one series, these chapters
are made into volumes and republished alone.
7. East vs West
• Compared to Western Comics, that usually feature
superheroes saving the world, Manga are much less sci-fi
and are instead often heavily based on magic or fighting
(usually both).
• Another difference is that Manga heroes nearly always
have their own missions to fulfil, rather than the save the
world archetype that America has given comics.
• Single stories can go on for years and many volumes before
they are finished. Again, this is different to comics in that
comics may have backstory but no story goes on for quite
as long. Because comics don’t have a definite end (a result
of the lack of having a single mission to fulfil), they may go
on for decades. Manga, though long, are finite.
8. • The order of reading a
manga is different to the
order we would naturally
read, because Japanese is
traditionally written
horizontally from right to
left.
• Until recently, when manga
were translated the pages
would be flipped so that
Western readers didn’t have
to adjust. This lead to some
inconsistencies, with rights
becoming left, but worked
overall.
• Manga are now left in their
original format, and
translated versions have a
“STOP!” page where
Westerners would start
reading in case they are new
to the format.
9. Anime
• Comics are made into cartoons; manga are made into anime.
Anime, as a word, is again used in Japan to mean all cartoons but
used in the west to mean cartoons made in Japan.
• Though every popular manga has a companion anime, the cartoon
version often strays from the manga storyline, and this can result in
different things.
• Usually everyone carries on and accept the gaping differences –
common practice among fans is to treat the two versions
differently. Most faith in what is official and what isn’t lies with the
manga.
• In the case of Fullmetal Alchemist, another version of the anime is
being made that does follow the manga. In the case of Tsubasa
Chronicles, the anime was pulled by the manga’s creators and is
entirely discredited by fans.
