Manga Monday at SouthPark Regional Library (ages 12-18)

Does your teen love manga and anime but isn't sure where to start? This weekly program invites young fans ages 12-18 to explore popular manga series together. Each session includes group discussion about different manga titles, anime episode viewings, and a chance to sample Japanese snacks. Most of the anime shown is rated TV-14, making it appropriate for the teen audience. The library staff member leading the program creates a welcoming space for both newcomers curious about the medium and longtime fans looking to connect with peers who share their interests. Attendance is completely free, and registration is required through the library's online system. This is a great way for your teen to discover new series before committing to full volumes, revisit beloved stories with others who appreciate them, or simply enjoy an hour of entertainment and community. It's an ideal activity for manga enthusiasts who want to engage with their hobby in a structured, social setting.
