Manga University presents Kanji de Manga vol. 01, The Comic Book That Teaches You How To Read and Write Japanese! Japanese kanji - the written characters adapted from Chinese - were originally drawings of images from real life. Japanese comic books and cartoons now provide fresh images to help us learn. "Kanji de Manga" uses today's manga image to make the kanji learning process fun and easy for "otaku" of all ages. Enjoy the pictures, memorize the kanji, study the stroke orders; with a little patience and practice, you'll be reading and writing basic Japanese in no time at all!
