[edit] Definitions

Do definitions for this term change or is it pretty set? Is it worth adding a historical definition section? If so, then need to add the following:

The following definition dates to December 2005 in the Harry Potter fandom:

Manga: a form of Japanese comics with a very particular stylized quality. Actually, a very very wide-ranging term. Manga is like a comic book to us, but more like a cross between a text book, a romance novel, a how-to guide, and a graphic novel to the Japanese. There is Manga for everything: office lady manga, the history of communism manga, manga for two year olds, for teenaged boys, for pre-teen girls, pornographic manga for 50-something straight men, you name the audience, there's manga for it.[1]
