" The 80’s have been through a very cult decade for those who was born in the 70’s.
Kids grew up with the most poetic cartoon characters, especially from those Japanese Manga worlds.
We use to dream loads about hope, freedom, trust and most of those characters gave us the chance to become old and live our childhood in a very encouraging way.
But on the other hand, our new kid’s generation seems lost, sad, cynical... they gulp down anything like junk food. They do not have dreams anymore, they are instead bored and become consumers. This is the CI MANGA mood...
In Italian, MANGA word is pretty similar to MANCA, which means missed something... CI MANGA sounds like “We missed it”. I guess it came out like We are missing Astroboy and all our childhood cartoon’s heroes.
Our children’s heroes seem to be dying while our new silly generation is ready to gulp him down." Fidia.
