I find myself quibbling a lot with the findings about how much information is contained in a panel because he's combining all of japanese manga together and I seriously doubt that manga targeting different age and sex groups use macros and Micros to the same extent.

"In Japan, manga are far more popular than comics in any other culture. They are read by people of all ages, cover innumerable genres, and ubiquitously appear throughout the country. Indeed, manga constitute nearly one-third of all printed material."

Ha.

Just got theoretical backing for an activity I do in my English classes. Apparently reconstruction tasks of texts is a good measure of comprehension as well as logical/sequential reasoning.

Take that any imaginary person who didn't like my activity. :D
