If you asked 100 strangers in the street what their first response to the word manga was, what do you think it'd be?
Going further, if they mentioned a series what do you think it'd be?
I think it'd be Comics & Dragonball Z

In the streets of my hometown probably 1 or 2 out of that 100 would know what it is. All the others would say "Duh fuck is that bitch" o_o Lol

That's got to be the most obscure response

assuming you found one that did know what it was, what series do you reckon they'd reference?
My money would be on Pokemon/Dragonball...

I thought this was gonna be how other people pronounce things.
Dunno what they'd say but pokemon/dragonball/naruto/yugioh would probably be the series.

Haha, that would be if I asked about Ninja Gay-Den.
@Ivy - See the hipsters around here wouldn't even know that much, they'd probably think you were foreign

The big Shonen Jump titles would probably be the first ones that jump to a lot of people's minds. (Naruto, Bleach, etc.)
Edit: Unintentional pun! ^__^

I only know about the .Hack ones because I had the (shit) games. These are the comics that are backwards, aren't they?

Hmm...the first thing that comes around is either Naruto, Bleach, or any shojo title I don't know.
P.S. Ah, Kaito-Kun, looking to 'jump' over your error? See what I did there?
