Manga and anime are undoubtedly two of the best known artistic ways of Japan and the world.
Both are narrative forms, which in terms of graphics have styles very similar to each other, so we will refer to both indifferently.
In essence, manga is a printed product, as are comics, comic strips or comics.
Unlike classic comics, the manga covers both fantastic and realistic stories, with very different themes, capable of capturing audiences of all ages, sex or religion.
Anime, on the other hand, is the animated way, the animation of representing a comic or story. As well as cartoons or animated short films, the anime emerged with great influence from the golden age of Disney.
Within the anime, it is common to find in addition to the narrative content, a wide musical content, being the opening (musical sequence with which a chapter begins) and the ending (musical sequence with which a chapter ends), points that do not go unnoticed.
The link between the two formats is very strong, there are constant manga adaptations in anime or vice versa, which could justify the confusion between masters terms.
Due to this relationship we will observe that in terms of graphics and styles they are quite similar, unlike the manga tends to be black and white, due to the wide reproduction of this type of material.
