about the 3 different anime art styles

Post by gunblade007 »

hey everyone,
it's Joe again.i was kind of thinking it would be fun to talk about the 3 different art style of anime like manga(Japanese),manhwa(korean),manhua(chinese).i know manga is very big and mostly known then both manhwa and manhua.but manhua and manhwa are slowly growing.i hadn't notice any books on drawing manhua but i like to see one made.there is only one book on drawing manhwa and billion book of manga.i know manhwa is a cross between american and anime style of art.and manhua is more of anime and realish artwork.and manga has a bit of cartoon style.all three are different but all three are known as anime.which is asian art.but manga,manhwa,manhua could be the only art style in asia.but you don't need to be chinese or Japananese or korean to draw it.any country is free to draw that style of art.i just like to see what everyone else think about all 3 anime styles.
talk to you later.

The do have comics in China. There used to be catagorized in two schools--the Chinese and the Hong Kong schools. They had very different style of storytelling. I don't know if that is still true, what with HK being integrated into China.
