    I'm just wondering if any of you people are manics for these kind of things.

    Animation is like Cars, TMNT, etc.
    Anime is like Gundam Series, Ghost in the Shell, etc.
    Comics are like The Sandman, Superman, Batman, etc.
    Mangas are like Full Metal Alchemist, Gundam Series, etc.

    The major difference of the types is that Anime and Manga are from Japan, and have a distinct style. However, animation and comics are from all over, and seem to copy each other. As well, Manga is read "backwards" from normal comics, from right to left, instead of left to right.

    Does 'Sailor Moon' ring a bell? 'Inuyasha'? 'Knights of the Zodiac'?

    Japanimation: short for 'Japanese animation'

    No need to snap....

    Anyway, there is several examples you can use. Cybersix, Gundam Wing, Gundam Seed, Ghost in the Shell, etc. They are all animes.

    There are a few things I regret not watching, like Death Note. I had a chance to watch it all in Japanese with subs but I skipped it, opting for Bleach instead.

    I'm not a fan of Bleach anymore, so Death Note might be better.

    too many examples, I might add.
    Normally I just download manga series from the web and read it nonstop.

    I watch it before I read it. Only case I haven't was Sandman, but that's because the film is coming out this or next year. Not sure which, but I'm seeing it in theaters.

    Why you exclaim? You make it seem like they are a bad thing!
