世界然而,在日本,漫画的流行及其对视觉流行文化和社会的影响可能比其他任何文化都更重要。在美国,漫画书只适合儿童或收藏家,而在日本,漫画影响了从学龄前儿童到成年人的整个日本社会。它的影响力在日本各地的电视广告、广告、广告牌,甚至学校教科书中都有所体现。在21世纪初的世纪,日本漫画的流行已经通过漫画书,动画和商品传播到世界各地。但是,尽管漫画的流行,没有多少人真正了解它的意义,它的全球知名度,它对儿童的吸引力,以及它与美国漫画的区别。漫画的一个主要特点是它分为男孩(少女)和女孩(少女)漫画。无论故事中描绘的主题是什么,男孩漫画的主题是英雄如何通过保护女性,家庭,国家或地球免受敌人的伤害而成为男人。这部少女漫画的主题是爱情如何克服障碍而取得胜利。这些概括在一定程度上是正确的;然而,Shojo Manga!少女漫画!女孩梦想的镜子M A S A M I T O K U

In contrast to the United States, where comic books are only for children or collectors, in Japan manga infl uences all of Japanese society, from preschoolers to adults. Its infl uence appears throughout Japan in commercials on TV, in advertisements, on billboards, and even in school textbooks.1 But Japanese manga is no longer just a phenomenon of visual pop culture in Japan. At the beginning of the twenty-fi rst century the popularity of Japanese manga has spread worldwide through comic books, animation, and merchandise. But despite manga’s popularity, not many people really understand its signifi cance, its worldwide popularity, its appeal for children, and its diff erence from American comics. One of the major characteristics of manga is that it has split into boys’ (shōnen) and girls’ (shōjo) comics. Regardless of the subject depicted in the story, the main theme of boys’ manga is how the heroes become men by protecting women, family, country, or the earth from enemies. Th e theme of girls’ manga is how love triumphs by overcoming obstacles. Th ese generalizations are true to a certain extent; however, Shojo Manga! Girls’ Comics!
