Japanese comics are referred to as mangas, but they differ from western comics we know like Marvel Comics. The characters have big wide eyes, colorful hair and according to Japanese tradition, mangas are read from right to left.The origins of mangas go back much further than you might imagine: As early as the 8th century, Buddhist monks painted murals of animals behaving like humans. Today’s mangas were inspired by the first Disney films. The first mangas were aimed at children, but stories for adults were added soon.Mangas often serves as source material for anime, which we can see across tv screens.
