A manga is usually created by one (often with assistants) drawing a comics and writing texts. However there's also group activity like the Clamp band, still a normal team is 3-4 people at most. Professional manga is next to amateur manga - doujinshi (dojinshi). The following is mostly about professional manga.

A popular genre is shojo (shoujo) manga literally meaning a young girl. So it targets women audience aged 10 to 18. Shoujo manga was first created primarily by men but then many female writers have sprung since about 1969.

Shojo manga is multi-genre and -topic including historical drama and science fiction. It often describes romance and emotions pertaining specifically to girls.

Many publishing houses specialize in this type of manga - Shueish with Ribon monthly magazine, Kodansha with Nakayoshi magazine and others. Most series were first printed in such magazines and then serialized.

* Hot Gimmick by Miki Aihara
* Bokura ga Ita by Obata Yuuki
* Nana Manga by Ai Yazawa
* Peach Girl: Change of Heart by Miwa Ueda
* Hana-Kimi: For You in Full Blossom by Hisaya Nakajo
* Ouran High School Host Club by Bisco Hatori
* Love Hina by Ken Akamatsu, Anita Sengupta
* Kare First Love by Kaho Miyasaka
* The One Manga by Nicky Lee
* Beauty is the Beast by Tomo Matsumoto

A sub-genre of Japanese fantasy anime and manga called magical girls (maho shojo) tells about girls with superhuman abilities forced to fight evil and protect the Earth. Stories with magic and a transformation like Full Moon wo Sagashite often feature girls with a secret identity. Magical girls known in Japan as majokko (witch girl) generally don't refer to modern magical girl anime first of which was Sally, the Witch in 1966. This genre counts hundreds of stories. Here're just some except the ones mentioned before:

* Alice 19th by Yuu Watase
* Cardcaptor Sakura by Clamp
* Gakuen Alice by Tachibana Higuchi
* I-O-N by Arina Tanemura
* My-HiME by Hajime Yatate, Noboru Kimura
* Sailor Moon by Naoko Takeuchi

Josei manga (ladies - ladies' comics) is created mostly by women targeting late teenage and adult female audiences. Josei (seinen for male) means simply female and serves to move away from the primitive image of ladies' comics.

The stories cover everyday life of Japanese women, sometimes at high school. Their style is a realistic version of shojo manga and tends to be a continuity of female comics.

Unlike idealistic shojo manga, josei comics portray realistic romance with more explicit and mature storytelling like Honey and Clover. Below are some series of popular manga:

* Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms by Fumiyo Kouno
* Walking Butterfly by Chihiro Tamaki
* Bride of the Water God by Mi-Kyung Yun
* Suppli by Mari Okazaki
* The Other Side of the Mirror by Jo Chen
* With The Light by Keiko Tobe
* Inubaka: Crazy For Dogs by Yukiya Sakuragi
* Presents by Kanako Inuki
* IC in a Sunflower by Mitsukazu Mihara

Yaoi is fictional media on gay relationships but by and for females. Yaoi is abbreviated from Yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi (neither climax, nor sense, nor denouement). Originally a pejorative fan term, now it has an extended and almost scientific meaning.

Known in Japan as boys' love (BL or boizu rabu), yaoi includes parodies, original works, commercial and dojinshi works. However BL features adult males, while young boys stories refer to the shotacon genre. Both original and translated yaoi is now available internationally.

Lesbian stories in manga, anime and related Japanese media are slanged as yuri (girls love or garuzu rabu). Emotions (sometimes called shojo-ai by western fans) and sex are its 2 focuses. Springing from female-targeted (shoujo, josei) works, yuri today is present in male-targeted (shonen, seinen) ones too.

Female manga in English gradually gets more printed. The Web has seen many amateur translator groups targeting only women and sites to read manga online.

The Popularity Of The Inuyasha Anime And Manga Series

InuYasha? Or is it Inuyasha? Either way, this feudal fairy tale is the one of the most popular Japanese anime out currently. And it all started with a comic book series (known better as a "manga series") written by Rumiko Takahashi. But what makes this anime series so popular and why do over 130,000 people a month search for Inuyasha on the Internet search engines?


InuYasha is Japanese for "dog spirit" and you will discover this is fitting for a title. The story is about a time-traveling student, Kagome Higurashi and Inuyasha who, with other exciting anime characters, fight to protect the Jewel of Four Souls. This jewel gives hugely increased powers to anyone who has it and will mean catastrophe if it falls into the wrong hands.

Of course, there are certainly wrong hands for it to fall into! Evil Naraku is one they must defeat. And all the characters -- a demon slayer, a fox demon, a monk and more -- must do everything possible to find the jewel, which was stolen and later shattered into many shards.

So the story is exciting, yes. And it pulls you along with all the adventures you can imagine. The anime came from the popular Japanese manga series, which was adapted into 167 anime episodes directed by two different directors. It first aired on Yomiuri TV in Japan in 2000 and ran through to close to the end of 2004. There was no conclusion, and in order to continue with the series, you must read the manga that is still being released.

The manga itself began in Shonen Sunday, a weekly publication in Japan, as early as November of 1996 and carried on through to 485 chapters published as of 2006 and is still going. If you are collecting these issues, you can collect every 10 or so chapters in a bound volume. There are no signs that Inuyasha will stop and you can continue reading the manga to your heart's content as long as Takahashi continues to create the story.

If there weren't tons of people enjoying the series, it wouldn't have continued and it would have been a dismal failure. And the author wouldn't now be one of the richest women in Japan. The demand for the story to continue comes from the readers and viewers of the manga and anime, and this demand has spread across the world.

The English version, published by Viz Media, had to be changed in format because, of course, in Japanese a person reads from right to left where in the U.S. and many other countries, the reading goes from left to right. The English comics were published starting in 1998 and continue being issued, but they are still a few years away from catching up to Japan publications of the story.

Inuyasha was first broadcast as anime on satellite television by Animax, and in the U. S. on the Cartoon Network. It is also running on the Latin American Cartoon Network and is dubbed in Spanish. You can even see it on some cruise ships, if you care to spend a cruise watching anime. Well, many do! And this just verifies the huge popularity of the series and the incredible and fascinating tale of Inuyasha and the Jewel of Four Souls.
