What is manga exactly? Are there different genres of manga?

So manga is basically Japanese comic books and they get adapted into TV shows a lot. There are a bunch of different genres too, like the ones I mentioned. Shounen is like action/adventure and Shojo is kinda like romance.

Absolutely, I've got a couple on my shelf. If you wanted to check it out I'd recommend some works by Junji Ito, he has some very unsettling pieces.
