Weekly magazines exclusively dealing with comics began appearing in Japan a few
decades ago. As those magazines flourished and grew, so did the quality of manga,
resulting in the development of the manga culture, a feature unique to Japanese society.
In this new genre of expression, there are works whose stories are equivalent to those of
novels. And there are others whose drawings themselves can be qualified as art.
Japanese comics are not only for children, but are also legitimate reading material for
adults.
Works which have won high acclaim in comic magazines are often made into animated
cartoons and broadcast on TV. A large number of animated cartoon programs are aired
on TV every week.
I have heard that some Japanese cartoon programs are exported abroad. Have you ever
seen a Japanese cartoon on TV in your country?
