About the word manga - 15 views

Sorry for the late reply! Yes, I don't think it's very useful to try and draw conclusions about manga based on some aspect of Hokusai's work. Hokusai may have made the word "manga" famous, but his ...

Rising Sun Productions :: 8th JapAniManga Night - 0 views

  •  
    The JapAniManga Night is much smaller than Polymanga but the main j-pop fair in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. It takes place in a former 19th century army building in Winthertur, near Zürich. Everyone there speaks both Swiss-German, English and...Japanese! The event lasts 48 hours non-stop. The organizers also offer 3 types of accomodation (in the rooms of the building, in the local nuclear shelter or, you can also lay in sleeping bag on the floor in the building). With only about 500-600 visitors, the atmosphere is really cosy and a bit like a big family gathering. Quite a different experience from the Polymanga and other huge fairs!
