Manga�s the Japanese word for comic. The term was coined in 1815 by the great artist Hokusai and is usually translated as �irresponsible pictures�. It stuck to the products of the comic industry. It�s never used in Japan for moving pictures, although in the UK the Manga Video label uses the term �manga movies� extensively to describe anime released on their own label.
Anime�s the loanword for animation, borrowed by Japan from the Western word and now used by Western fans to distinguish the Japanese version from that of any other.
Japanese word for beautiful young girl/boy, also generic terms for manga genre in which characters are drawn in a very stylised and cool fashion, normally with really cute big manga eyes!
Ofcourse kawaii is the Japanese word for cute!
Japanese word meaning obsessive, in the sense of being narrow, selfish and not interested in social interaction. Anime fans are often described as �otaku no video� which is sort of translated as �video fan boy�. It is a term of strong condemnation in Japan; however, some Western fans view the label as a medal of honour rather than a badge of shame. An otaku is someone with the flexibility and breadth of interest to step outside the pulp entertainments offered by their own culture and look beyond.
Japanese word for god or goddess, applied as a term of the greatest respect, eg the great manga artist and animator Tezuka, often referred to as �manga no kami� (the manga god); or with the suffix �sama (a very rarely used form) as a superlative description, eg �kawaii no kamisama� (the great god/goddess of Cuteness)
