Went to pick up some random book to read (Dragons of Vanished Moon) I noticed a relatively huge section devoted entirely to anime comics (manga) . Even newerish anime like Naruto have a few volumes out. And this was just in Sam Goody! next to their anime dvd section! Walden Books had an even larger section, 3-4 walls worth compared to a single "stand" of stupid american comics.

or maybe its just a southernish thing

actually i think mangas are becoming more popular here now. I remember when it's just a few books at the local b&n when I first got here, now they have 2 selfs full of them.
