Manga, it's traditional and it's shorter

[ragerock]

i dont care  

[Hitsugaya Whirl]

[zenith_mist]

why does it really matter? why are people so picky about what to call them!! I don't get it! All I know is that manga/graphic novels/whatever are fun to read, and that's it!! AGH. That doesn't mean that I'm naive, or not a "real fan." I just don't care. pirate suck on that!

XDD my angry rant for the day. Bye now.

P.S. i normally call them manga, but only by force of habit. i don't really have any special preference...
