Sources that I am going to use

I am going to use mostly the following:


- Internet // Manga Websites, Manga Popularity Charts, Most Popular Mangakas etc.
* Search 'manga', 'manga popularity', 'manga ranking/ranks' and others.

- Books // Manga I have in my house (FullMetal Alchemist, Bleach, Pokemon Special, Naruto etc) and Manga Sources/Pages Online (OneManga, MangaFox, MangaHut etc) and also Manga Art Books.

- People // Interviews (People I know- Rookie Mangakas/In Training etc) and Surveys ( Make people=classmates read a chapter and see why they liked it and/or make people that reads *is a fan of* Naruto and/or other manga tell by interviews why they like to read it OPTIONAL/why they became a fan and also survey if people know this manga and what is the best known like Naruto, Bleach etc)

={PEOPLE ARE: Y8.5 Classmates that know manga or not, people I know that are manga maniac/fans in the internet- for example, forums and gatherings. Google- searches about 'manga', 'manga popularity' and others} I WILL ADD MORE LATER FOR THE SITES I AM GOING TO USE.

Action Plan/Step-by-Step Plan UNTIL LEVEL 2

My action plan for this project.

==============================================FACTUAL KNOWLEDGE
1. RESEARCH (POPULARITY OF MANGA)
- Research about the top 10 or 50 manga and record it
1st: Detective Conan, Volume 592nd: Black Lagoon, Volume 7 3rd: xxxHOLiC, Volume 12 4th: Kekkaishi, Volume 18 5th: Hayate the Combat Butler, Volume 13 6th: Skip Beat!, Volume 17 7th: Working!!, Volume 4 8th: Zipang, Volume 32 9th: Soul Eater, Volume 10 10th: Vinland Saga, Volume 5

- Ask people around if they know this manga
- Ask people what they think of it (without telling them the ranking)
- Sort out this data/survey and make a graph

2. RESEARCH (plot/storyline of the most popular manga/ranked 10 and up)
- Read summaries of them
- Tell other people these summaries and pick best one/two

3. RESEARCH (What manga do people already know?)
- Ask people what manga they already know about
- Where they heard about it

4. RESEARCH (Fanfiction, Fanart etc)
- Go to major fanfiction sites and major fanart sites
- Check how much there is and check the content (PAIRING BASED, HUMOUR BASED, CHARACTER BASED)

5. RESEARCH (Do characters affect it?)
- Show pictures of most popular characters to people who never seen the manga/type of manga
- Survey which is the most prettiest/hottest/handsome

6. RESEARCH (Main Reason WHY it is popular; Professional, Fan-based, Fans)
- Search on Google on 'Why is _____ so popular?'

7. SORT OUT (Surveys)
- Sort out, Make neater; Surveys.

==============================================UNDERSTANDING
8. OPINION (Write my own opinion on manga and why it is popular)
- I think that... (Mangas are popular because

9. OPINION (Write my own opinion from the fact I read about)
- Why I think this manga is the most popular, why this manga is not popular but has good art styles (like Kurozakuro)

In the end (?) - Make a design/manga plan (name) that would be popular and annotate why. PAIRING MANGA, SCI-FI, HORROR etc . Also make an essay why it (manga) is popular
