Information This club is for people who want to be famous mangaka's/ Animators
Before being a Mangaka you have to chose what kind of manga you want to write
Kodomo manga: Manga intended for children (?-10)
Shounen manga: Manga intended for boys (10-18)
Shoujo manga: Manga intended for girls (10-18)
Seinen manga: Manga intended for men (18-30)
Josei manga: Manga intended for women (18-30)
Seijin manga: Ero-Manga intended for men (18+)
Redisu manga: Ero-Manga intended for women (18+)
Notes:
Although Seinen/Josei is mainly targeted at young adults, some comics are aimed at 30+ adults.
Josei/Redisu/Redikomi are the same, but recently Redisu/Redikomi have been used to refer to Ero-Manga.
Hentai is often used synonymously for Seijin.
Shoujo-ai, Shounen-ai, Yuri, Yaoi, and Ecchi are genres. Only a few of many and are not gender specific (but the manga it-self may be aimed at a certain demographic).
Definitions of the listed genres:
Shoujo-ai: Romance sub-genre involving love between women.
Shounen-ai: Romance sub-genre involving love between men.
Yuri: Ero sub-genre involving love between women.
Yaoi: Ero sub-genre involving love between men.
Ecchi: General genre involving perverted or suggestive themes.
And there's these three words which really have no relation to each other (except involving manga):
Doujinshi: Self-published/Non-published manga. All manga that isn't published in a book or magazine is basically doujinshi.
Yonkoma: A comic-strip format. Format is 4 equal size cells stacked vertically/horizontally, ordered from top-to-bottom/right-to-left.
Gekiga: Mainly used to refer to the Japanese comic movement started in the 50s by mangaka who did not want their works associated with "children comics". Modern manga made in the same style as gekiga would be considered seinen manga. ( thanks to ZinnKid for the information)
