Claymore. Dark shonen manga

Claymore is a dark manga written and illustrated by Norihiro Yagi. In a medieval world, a powerful  monsters called Yomas  eat people. So, the humans created a women half human half monsters, called Claymores (or silver eyes witches) to kill the monsters. The problem is if the girls use too much Yoma power and pass the limit, they convert to monsters too...

I had to admit, its a very very bloody manga.

Its dark, dismal and violent, but in the other hand the plot is very interesting. Clare, the protagonist, is a distant and quiet claymore, who acts for revenge a friend of the past.... Also, the Claymores attempt to suppress his human side, because they are monsters for the humans, too.

I love it, and if you like battles, warriors, blood and a good history, its your manga. The anime is quite good, but the plot is changed and its more....colorful xD

CONVENTIONS!! 

Ok, I've never been in a anime convention. That's why I'm so thrilled! ^^

The anime conventions  have a mainly focus  on anime, manga and Japanese culture. These are multi-day events hosted at convention centers, hotels or college campuses.

One of the most famous anime convention is the Jump Festa, in Tokyo, obviously. 

It's sponsored by Sueisha Publishing & Co. The last Jump Festa was a super event with hundreds of people talking, seeing and promoting Manga, anime, videogames, merchandising etc etc :D

Types of Manga! :3

Manga  divided into many different genres and depends of the sex and the age of the readers.These are:

Shōujo 

Shōujo (literally "young girl"),  is manga aimed at young females up to the age 18. These series tend to focus on romance and relationships from a young female's point of view. It’s my favourite genre ^^ examples of Shōujo: 

Paradise Kiss

Chobits

Bokura Ga Ita

Shōnen

This is almost the same as shojo except it is mostly action, sports or romance for males up to age 18. It translates literally as

I like this anime and this song, it's in the ending of the chapters.

Origin of Manga

What is the origin of manga? The word is composed of two Japanese caracters—the first meaning "informal"  and the second meaning "picture"— and has been used to describe various comical images for at least two centuries.

The word itself was popularized by the famous woodblock print artist Hokusai, but it was not invented by him. The first clear examples of such sequential art are the picture scrolls of medieval Japan, which combine pictures and text to tell stories. These scrolls look and work like modern manga or comics in many ways, but there is a crucial difference: whereas modern-day manga are produced for mass consumption, picture scrolls were singular works of art produced for an elite audience.
The actual manga starts after World War II, because the american influence (Marvel, Disney, etc) was mixed with the japanese tradicional art.
