Is It manga or anime?



But why is anime always referring to as Manga? That has an easy answer. In the 90’s the main distributor of anime and Asia movies was Manga entertainment. For counties like Ireland this was the only access to anime. In fact some would say anime was easier to come by back in 90's Ireland then it is today. 
Back in the mid 1990’s anime was seen as a something only for hardcore nerds. There wasn’t really a lot of money to be made due to there being very small yet devoted audience. So a lot of the anime imported over where cheaply made OVA are that bombed in Japan. So company would pick them up on a cheaper licensing price. Resulting in a large majority of the early anime being released where poorly animated and dubbed mess.
