Now before people hate on me I am new to the anime community and all the manga I've read were made from Japan. So I always assumed manga is manga if it comes from Japan or is at least written in japanese first. Can some one please tell me how this classifies as manga? Is there no difference or are there differences? Also love saigami😶

Comics show dialogue, sound effects, visual evidence, and textual, but manga show those things with multiple labels in a Asian style such as Shonen, Shojo, josei, and kodomomuke for the intended audience. Apple black is Shonen which aims focus towards a young male audience but comics don't have a specific category name such as these. Some people would say there is no difference but comics is an American style appealing to the U.S. while manga appeals to Asian viewers. Yet most Americans and foreign countries appeal to this style as well, so it can be dubbed manga or comic by jury. :P
