Manga is the Japanese word for comics in general. Outside of Japan, the term manga is used exclusively to refer to Japanese comics.

Manga covers a wide range of genres and reaches an audience at very different and diverse spectrums of ages. Manga is a very important part of the publishing industry in Japan and motivates many adaptations to different formats: animated series known as anime, movies, video games and novels.

Manga Industry

Mangas in Japan is a massive phenomenon. Only one fact illustrates the scale of this phenomenon: in 1989, 42% of all books and magazines published in Japan were manga.

As you can guess from this figure, manga is not just a hobby for young people. In Japan, there is a manga for all ages and social status, including housewives, clerks, teenagers, office workers and others.

Manga Magazines

Manga magazines are one of the most popular forms of manga distribution in Japan, selling millions of copies every week. Shonen Jump Magazine, the most popular Japanese manga magazine, sells about 7-8 million copies a week. Shonen magazine is about 5-6 million copies.

Manga magazines are weekly or monthly publications ranging from 200 to 900 pages, in which there are many different series of manga, consisting of 20-40 pages of the magazine. These magazines are usually printed on poor-quality black and white paper, with the exception of the cover and, as a rule, several pages from the very beginning. If the series is successful, they have been published for several years in a magazine.
