I think I was about 9 when I first started watching Pokemon ~ I loved it! 😃 I never really got seriously into manga until I was 17. My first manga was Azumanga Daioh ~ I wasn't that impressed, but I decided to try a few more: Fruits Basket, Hana Kimi and Happy Hustle High. Thus, an addiction was born. 🤣

I found out about anime when I was 10, with DBZ and Sailor Moon. And with manga, I was 14 but it was an H-Manga (Secret Plot).

Etymology
The Japanese word manga, literally translated, means "whimsical pictures". The word first came into common usage in the late 18th century with the publication of such works as Santō Kyōden's picturebook "Shiji no yukikai" (1798), and in the early 19th century with such works as Aikawa Minwa's "Manga hyakujo" (1814) and the celebrated Hokusai manga containing assorted drawings from the sketchbook of the famous ukiyo-e artist Hokusai.[25] Rakuten Kitazawa (1876-1955) first used the word "manga" in the modern sense.[26]
Yeah why can't all countries just ignore there culture and heritage and just use English words all the time

Oh Blood Haze, you have got to be the best member on here...
Acting like a tough guy when you get proven wrong, and then poorly justifying it by saying you're an "idealist" despite you contradicting your idealistic ways by blatantly ignoring fact and believing that your way of thinking is right, WHICH IS EXACTLY HOW A CYNISIST WOULD ACT.
If we have a vote for best member, then I'm definitely voting for you. 🤣
