BIG HELP NEEDED, OPINION Вопросы :)

Dear Anime/Manga lovers! :3

I have a request for Ты guys:
I’m a Dutch student (btw, I think this English message is going to have some grammar mistakes ^^’’) and currently in my last год in middle-school. Everybody in his/her last год has to make a sort of project about a subject Ты like. The goal of this project is that Ты learn new things about your subject and I chose the subject anime/manga!

I want to find out why Anime/Manga started in Japan. Why Япония and not for example Korea или China? I think it has to do something with the strict/formal culture (in the past mostly) in Japan.

My Вопрос for Ты guys is if Ты want to fill in these Вопросы down below this message. This way I get to know opinions about Anime/Manga other than mine! It’ll take some time to fill in all the Вопросы so if you’re not interested that’s allright^^

So please fill in those Вопросы and it would be a big help! 
Thank Ты very much!! :D

Манга Ответы

1. I began Чтение Манга after my friend introduced me to Tokyo Mew Mew and Fruits Basket. I read the former thinking it was cute, short, and mainly entertainment. The plotting was fast and I was frustrated at the loose ends it let but mainly enjoyed it. Fruits Basket on the other hand I took еще for emotional enjoyment. The situations were extreme and while the premise sounds cute it got dramatic real fast. I enjoyed learning many stories from many characters in this format that were vastly different. Each story was like a magnified value of the Автор and that was interesting to read magnified emotions and values like that. mostly it is for fun but sometimes it gets me thinking about nuances in people's personalities and is kind of a catharsis when I read emotional scenes close to my heart. It's interesting, creative and a better way to get the drama of a soap opera than watching those clunky messes.

2. Sort of. After being introduced to Manga/Anime I wasn't really interested in anything else Япония had to offer until we got to choose a country to research their deitites. well I am way into mythos so I checked it out and was interested. Their cultural differences , their history and value system are just intriguing. along with the snacks they offer. (Banana popsicles Ты can peel..... never getting over that)

3. Not really, no. some can offer new viewpoints and Вопросы to ponder but some I take purely as innocent entertainment like "Yotsuba" a Манга about a cute girl doing cute things and one of the few slice of life I read.

4. I think that Япония would still be Япония but as far as I know Манга and Аниме are a big identifier for Япония outside itself. It's one of the few things that I guess it has in common with outside countries because it is an obvious one that invades a lot of cultures. It's very important for accumulating outside civilian interest I guess.

5. Hmm. This last one is tough because I never really thought of it. I guess as an outlet for emotions and ideals in their simplest forms because whenever I watch Аниме and Манга that is something that I always notice. Galileo wrote Книги and did demonstrations for the common people to understand by using a medium they could easily access and learn from. Манга probably started by wanting to artistically get across ideals without being to political about it.... wait I just got too political about it.... and the whole entertainment thing too...

Well I hope this was of help and hope Ты do great on your project
