Mistranslation of “Maga”?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Given that the other two are text and video, I'm going to guess it should be image.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I was thinking some variant of “illustration” or “graphic design”

Isn't manga chinese art? I'm pretty sure it's referring to that instead of maga

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Manga is Japanese comic books; the “print version of anime” if you will. Lots of anime is based on manga.

It doesn’t make any sense in the context of the document, though; which why I wonder if it was a mistaken translation

It makes more sense than maga though. I don't forsee them changing an english acronym into cyrillic, and that is the only way there could have been an error
