 Manga is the Japanese word for comics, which in Japan have a much wider readership than they do in the United States. Many manga are serialized in weekly or monthly magazines like Shonen Jump or Shojo Beat, and, if they run long enough to warrant it, are later collected into paperback volumes called tankōbon.

Manga is the Japanese word for comics, which in Japan have a much wider readership than they do in the United States. Many manga are serialized in weekly or monthly magazines like Shonen Jump or Shojo Beat, and, if they run long enough to warrant it, are later collected into paperback volumes called tankōbon. The subject matter of manga is quite various and often explicitly targeted to markets that are delineated by age and sex, i.e. shōjo (for girls), shōnen (for boys), josei (for women), seinen (for men). There are also defined markets for romantic and sexual fiction, i.e. shōjo-ai or yuri (lesbian "girl-love" stories); BL or yaoi ("boy-love" stories); ero, or hentai ("perverted" pornography), etc.
