Our school is called Jämshög Folkhögskolan in Sweden and we educate ourselves to youth workers. We will work with young people age between 15-25.

Me and my friends have discussed and concluded that we have received different responses from people when we said we're doing manga so we were interested so we wanted to find out a little more about it

This is a research kings work we are doing and when we do investigations, we have chosen to examine attitudes towards the manga and anime in the community.

I am a women and most read manga but I watch anime to
1. What is manga for you?
For me, when I read manga it a break from reality and I can be in a different world
2. What got you to start with manga/anime?
through friends who showed me manga
3. What role does manga have for you?
for me to be there on time, I can "hide" the real world outside
4. A. What is/are manga/anime series means the most to you?
I have no special series. I have not found a series that I have stuck to
B. Why do they mean a lot to you?
5. Is there any speciel genre that interests you?
I read, Hentai, Gender-bender and scient fiktion
6. How do others people treat you (then they don’t have the interest in manga/anime?)
they are curious and become interested
7. Manga has become popular among many young people! Why do you think it has become so popular?
I think it's because you have to follow the person's development in manganese and then it may be that it is not like other comics.
8. Is there any specific location/gathering place for young people who are manga/anime interested to meet? Where? (physical location, social media, etc.)
you can meet like-minded people online, convention, and you can meet many interested in youth centers. Then there may be "associations" which focuses mother manga and where can mäniskor with like-minded interests
9. What are the positive sides to engage in manga/anime?
you can get to be very creative. and you can keep going as long as you will it does not stop you discover new things all the time. that's probably what I like the most
10. What are the negative aspects of engaging in manga/anime?
In Sweden, so people may think that it is childish for here is the most linked to digimon and pokimon. I know that portion has suffered being called banslig but those I meet have only been positive
11. Is there anything else you want to say about manga/anime?
I think the manga is not just for little kids as some may think that I have come in contact with during this work. I think it's for all ages.

so if you can answer any questions you would help us in our research on the manga / animer and all who respond will be anoyman in our report.
