Manga
Technique is one of the most inherent techniques of line drawing and shape
formation which was specialized by the Japanese fine art industry. Drawn only with outlines, Manga is the
characteristic of Japanese-style painting made up of lines that seem
three-dimensional; drastically simplified and yet it forms curious
profoundness.
Managa is an art form
in which expressive elements:
- Drawing,
- Typography,
- Graphic design and
- Panel layout which are highly integrated.
These are the
expressive techniques which hold
true for Anime, and make
it a sophisticated art form. In an extraordinary degree of expressive power of
‘Manga’ and Anime that brings out the distinct mysterious realism. The
animation industry especially the Japanese one has been profoundly influenced
by this ‘Manga’ technique and has also spread in other parts of the world like
United States wherein many cartoonists have imbibed the same to create
cartoons/ characters using this technique.
The term ‘Manga’ is
a Japanese word referring both to comics and cartoons. "Manga" as a
term used outside Japan refers specifically to comics originally published in
Japan. Some of the well known Manga cartoon series are- Dragon Ball, Naruto,
One Piece, Tenjho Tenji and others.
