These are a little article about some types of manga, is it useful for you, maybe??

Try to read it first, it's okay!! ^_^, Lie Stella

Okay, maybe it's good for u to know that this article I've got from Anime Genesis, but I already editted this article, so it's not 100 percent Anime Genesis. Maybe only about 20%. The rest is my words. So if there is a little bit mistyping, don't contact Anime Genesis, but please contact me. ^_^

Types of Anime and Manga

Shoujo Anime
Marmalade Boy		 Shoujo manga or anime are usually for a girl at junior or high school girl. That usually concentrate on the romantic development of the characters mixed in with the other sub plots that make girls like ( like humor, sadness, or else on the girl's everyday life ). And usually, the main character of shoujo manga is always a girl and the plot focuses on their everyday life ( usually romantic of coz' ). A few examples are Sailormoon, Fushigi Yuugi, Marmalade Boy, Love Hina etc. Do you like this type of manga ?? Hahahaha... ^_^ Really??
Shounen manga or anime are usually for boys which at high school or junior high school. Hm.. Shounen manga are usually focused mare on action, fighting, and violence (see da' difference with shoujo manga or anime ^_^)l. These type of manga or anime usually doen't inculde so much emotionally, feeling, sadness, or else but the action clearly makes up for the loss in romantic development. A few examples are the breathtaking Rurouni Kenshin ^_~x ( My favorite of Coz' ) and Blade of the Immortal. Now, you can see da' difference.., what do you prefer? huh? Shoujo Manga or Shounen Manga ?? Hmm.. Shounen
Rurouni Kenshin (click da' picture for more info bout' tiz' anime) ThanX "_^

Seinen Anime or Manga
Seinen manga or anime are a little bit different from shoujo or shounen manga, but seinen manga or anime can also be classified as either shoujo or shounen maybe.. ^_^. Seinen anime or manga are usually included about hobby or workplace, also they are usually less violent or sexual than Shoujo or Shounen Manga. The readers targeted are depends of the topic of da' story. One great eg. is H2 which the story is only 'bout baseball or Freekick which only concentrates around the soccer life.

Yaoi/Slash Anime or Manga
Yaoi or also known as Slash type coz' they're inlcude at one group. These type of manga are usually attracts more girls readers than boys due to the fact that the story only focuses on the relationship between two males or more ( either love or sexual ). However, some Yaoi/Slash take the relationship so far that they lead to rape of a male by a male which really IMHO is disturbing ( of coz' that's unusual ha ha ha.. ^_^) However, there are a few good ones like Kizuna which concentrates more on the romantic relationship. Do U like Kizuna hm... yeah really good.. ^_^

Hentai Anime/Manga
This is usually the term used by many unknowingly when they are confronted with Hentai manga or anime. Hentai is the japanese word for pervert which translate in English into pornography when connected with anime or manga ( Yaikss.. I hate this type of manga,.. Yeeks..). However^_^, some have a decent storyline like End of Summer but usually the storyline is just an excuse for mindless sex just like those in real life pornography( That's bad, right?? Huh..). I will not encourage nor discourage the viewing of hentai but just remember you'll have to be of legal age in your country to view such videos.

nb: Of coz' this type isn't for kids.. for adult only yeahh.. 18 years old and above..^_~, If U are a kids better for U to prefer the Shoujo, Shounen, Seinen, or Yaoi manga or anime. Okay?? ^_~ Hm.. Hahaha...
