About

The Little Book of Manga Synopsis

A celebration of all things Manga, with striking facts and quotes about the Japanese phenomenon that has taken the world by storm.

"Manga" is a broad term for Japanese storytelling in the form of comic books or graphic novels. The simple but wildly expressive drawings and gripping storylines have captured the globe, with the stories spanning love, horror, sport and more - there is truly manga for everyone.

The manga hype has transcended its original book form and its popularity is now spilling into other forms of popular culture - most famously anime films and tv shows, but also into fashion and art. This tiny tome will transport you right into the magic of manga, come explore!


Sample content:

The style of manga we recognise today originated in serialised cartoon strips in 1920s Japanese magazines and newspapers.

Manga images are supplemented by sound effects that include onomatopoeia (giseigo) and imagined sounds (gitaigo).
