      XPost: rec.arts.anime.misc       From: bliss@mouse-potato.com               Hi Readers and Typers,               The online servers that dish up our favorite manga       are now full of Chinese and Korean comics as well.               Now if you are interested in manga to the exclusion of manhua       and manhwa here are some clues.               The manhua usually have titles that make sense in English       though the translation in the comics may be just as bad as in the       worst translations from the Japanese.               The manhwa is usually a web comic and some of the them       are pretty good and the title might make a little sense. The       published ones of which I have read a couple are often much       better.               Manga don't seem to bother much with title translations       but usually the quality of the internal translation has greatly improved.               While I love many manga very few manhwa are of interest       as the action moves too slowly for me. These may be of       interest to others.               So far I have seen only one manhua which comes up to       manga standards and it has been quiet for some time with no       new chapters out. It is about a dojinshi circle and a       bookstore.                So I try to avoid most manhua which seems to be flooding       the online servers.               bliss               --       bliss dash SF 4 ever at dslextreme dot com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
