Live Action TV Series are also in different languages in different countries, have different aesthetic and cultural clichés and plot types, probably have genre differences, etc.

Which is why they could all have their own subcategories, if there are enough pages of one type.

What is then the argument to separate comics (which apparently encompasses not USA stuff too. Like what?) and manga?

To answer the "like what" question: French comics, Belgian comics, German comics...

The argument for separating comics and manga is that it's a useful distinction (different styles of art, different structure, different tropes, differences in format and presentation, etc.), makes the categories smaller, and helps Fanlore users to find what they are looking for.

Are you finding this discussion disagreeable or aggressive? Why the reaction?

What makes you think that?
