The Anime Manga Daisuki Blog Discussion



 This blog is a personal favourite of mine and I frequent it regularly, however I did it for different reasons than I do many others. The anime and manga community in the west has a strong following of those with interest in art, even if they lack the ability themselves they will still have an interest in it themselves especially if it has something to do with the show/medium they are interest in. 



The reason this blog works is because it understands it’s community and develops accordingly.  The blog includes news from the industry, pictures from recent episodes, art work from fans or the creator themselves. The posts are also frequent and come from a wide variety of shows so that the entire anime and manga community is entertained, not just those how are interested in romantic or the auction shows which attract an older male audience etc.

The blog does have some flaws with its professionalism, sometimes art work or links will be posted that are inaccurate or not credited at all. The blog will also feature posts from other blogs that are usually funny but not necessarily relevant to this blog, which can often annoy audiences.




Overall this is a nice, light hearted blog that is designed from casual entertainment that appeals to the anime and manga community in the west and remains broad enough so that no genre feels isolated from the community. The Blog suffers from formatting issues and occasionally relevance but problems with the blog are generally limited.
