So I have to do an assessment in which I select a range of texts which I read/view, and then write a personal response to each. One of the categories is graphic novel. So I was just wondering, would manga comics be included under that category? Thanks in advance for your feedback  . |

If you're worried, then make sure you pick a manga that's actually a complete story (i.e. a novel) rather than just chapters in a saga. While "graphic novel" has come to refer to just about any long-form comic in square binding, it originally and properly means a novel told in graphic format. So, a beginning, middle, and end, plus the various trimmings.
