Japanese comic books and print cartoons. A high proportion of [[Anime]] are adapted from these, so many of the [[Japanese Visual Arts Tropes]] got their start here. Sometimes, an existing anime series gets a manga adaptation; see [[Anime First]] for examples. You generally read them right to left, unless the manga was flipped during its English printing, which rarely happens these days, or the [[Mangaka]] decided to write it left-to-right for some reason, which happens even more rarely.

Korean-made comic books (called ''[[Manhwa]]''), however, are generally read from left to right. Some manga scanlation sites have started showcasing a few manhwa, leading to some confusion in reading order when readers assume them to be Japanese manga. Chinese comic books are known as ''[[Manhua]]'', and read from right-to-left like manga; they also tend to be in color, like mainstream American comics.
