my five best!






Well its no secret am a manga freak,might be weird to some people well I love animation especially manga,there's something I love about manga which still remains a mystery to I, I don't seem to figure it out but I really do love manga. Well here are my five best manga:
#1 Naruto ( kishimoto masashi) still an on going manga which talks about a naïve young boy who aspires to become hokage of his Village, but because of the demon fox that attacked his village killing many is sealed within him makes it difficult for the villagers to accept him
*i give it a 5 star very interesting and funny ,suitable for first timers.
#2 Samurai X or Ruruoni kenshin( Nobuhiro watsuki) takes place during the meiji period in tokyo ,tells a story of an assassin from bakumatsu named Himura kenshin.who becomes a wanderer to protect the city of japan in order to make up for the people he has killed.
*superb that's all I can say.
#3 Bleach(Tite kubo) follows the life of a teen kurosaki ichigo,who has the ability to see ghosts.On one of his encounters he meets a shinigami girl rukai,who lives in the spirit world but comes to the real world to fight evil spirits.During one of her fights she transfers her shinigami powers to ichigo.*interesting for those who love shonen action
#4 Vampire knight (Matsuri Hino) this is the only shojo manga on the list,which makes it different.it is an ongoing manga series which talks about a girl called Yuki cross.who was attacked by a vampire,and saved by a vampire named kaname kurane.the story follows yuki's childhood friend zero kiryu,who has spent 4 years trying to fight his transformation into a vampire.*its just a complicated touching love story*
#5 Shaman king ( hiruyuki takei) probably one of the first manga I have read and I simply fell in love with it.It follows the adventures of Yoh asakura ,as he attempts to hone his shaman skills to become the shaman king in the shaman tournament.Manta oyamada a studious school boy from tokyo attempts a short cut through the grave and so the story goes...........................ooh,and the shaman theme song is my best manga theme song of all time!Here they are my 5 best manga animie,are you a manga freak?what are yours?
I love animation ,all types of animies especially Manga animies .Manga is the japanese word for comics. The word animie originated from japan as the short form of animation in the early 19 century.
There are different types of manga due to tokyo's cultural ethnics.Animie/ manga are split into several groups which includes;
SHONEN; animie/manga for boys
SHOJOU;animie/manga for girls
SHONENEI;animie /manga for boy-boy love story(non sexual)
SHOJOUAI;animie/manga for girl - girl love story (frequently non sexual)
YAO;boy-boy sex story
YUKI;girl-girl sex story
HENTAI;japanese sex storied that includes sex,rape,tentacles with the exception of love.
An important figure who played a role in japanese cartoon is Hayao mizayaki,through his co-founded studio ghibi with partner isao tahakata.Where by his success is being compared with american's walt disney produced many brilliant cartoons ,such as princess mononoke ,spirited away among others.
His success began when his idea became the ending character of the 1961 animated movie Gulliver's travel.His work was later acknowledged when he released his princess mononoke which became the highest grossing film in japan until it was eclipsed by titanic in 1997.with the return of his spirited away which topped titanic and also became the first animated film to be nominated and also win an academy award.Hayao mizayaki no doubt is truly a rare gem.
Well let's talk about young talented ones too. personally I love this guy,to me I rank him my second best in manga history,he is Masashi kishimoto best known for the. NARUTO SERIES an on going. Shonen japanese cartoon with more than 52 volumes and just 50 released in english,has sold over 100 million copies in japan alone.95 million copies were sold in both US and other countries.The naruto manga has become one of VIZ media property. In 2006 it became the highest and most watched manga.and also became the first manga to claim a QUILL award for the BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL.Even though Masashi has only few works,the naruto manga series has given him an everlasting world record as one of the Best Selling Manga of all times.........
