Modern Japanese Popular Culture has it's routes in films, television programs, comics, and music. Some expressions of modern Japanese pop culture are Manga, Karaoke, J-Rock and Kawaii which stands for 'Cute'.
There are countless types of classical music in Japan, none more striking than Taiko (Japanese Drums) however Modern Japan has an affinity with bubblegum pop and J-Pop. They are some of the best-selling forms of music, and are often used in films and television, especially in Japanese animation. J-Rock has a huge following and is not defined by its sound (which may or may not be "rock" music) but by the appearance of the bands.Manga is the Japanese word for comics and print cartoons. Outside of Japan, it usually refers specifically to Japanese comics. Manga developed from a mixture of ukiyo-e and foreign styles of drawing, and took its current form shortly after World War II. It comes mainly in black and white, except for the covers and sometimes the first few pages. The huge following for Manga has lead to the explosion of the Animation industry in Japan which is known as 'ANIME' All of the major UK distributors for Manga & Anime will be at JapanEX London.
