An Otaku’s First Obsession: Manga

“Manga” refers specifically to comics originally published in Japan.

The genre includes a broad range of subjects: action-adventure, romance, sports and games, historical drama, comedy, science fiction and fantasy, mystery, horror, sexuality, and business and commerce, among others.

The first manga i read was Fruit Basket, it tells the story of an orphan girl who learns that thirteen members of the Sohma family are possessed by the animals of the Chinese zodiac and are cursed to turn into their animal forms if they are embraced by anyone of the opposite sex. The title is quite confusing, but the story is really interesting and the drawings are so cute!

After which I really got hooked in reading manga. Good thing there are alot of websites that offers free on-line reader. I usually check these sites, when I say usually it means daily…what an addiction…
