The use of the term "manga" when referring to Tokyopop's "original English
language" products is heavily debated. It will be interesting to see how
this goes over.

Agree with kymaera. But at the same time, the general population being more exposed to the word "manga" alone will surely lead to more people becoming interested in the original Japanese stuff. And the more popular this stuff becomes, the happier me and my wallet be!
