This article is from the misc anime FAQ, by nikkou with numerous contributions by others.

1.2. Which 'manga' should I watch now?

Maybe round the beginning of the 20th century you'd watch 'manga', but since then for the past nine decades or so, 'anime' has been used for animation leaving 'manga' to refer to comics. I've noticed that people to whom this has to be explained have pointed the source of their confusion to a certain purveyor of anime with the word 'manga' in their name. No, we shall not also complain about their DVDs now. ;)

If you'll like to discuss or ask about 'manga' as in japanese comics, there is a whole newsgroup especially for that: " rec.arts.manga " and the very extensive online manga guide, "PRISMS" to consult at: http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Ginza/4996
