Genres Pt1

So as I was reading some random mangas this week I have realized how hard it is for people to get past all the mainstream manga titles and really enjoy all kinds of manga. The main problem here is not that mainstream titles are just that good or its hard to find other titles. The problem with the whole situation is that people do not understand the other genres because of this so many titles are passed on.
An understanding of most people is that if I do not know what this is than I probably will not want to read it. Now there are people who do look towards new and different titles, but not that many.
I am going to list some genres and give a quick description of each:
Action: Titles that entitle fighting, violence, chaos, and fast paced movement.
Adult: Titles that have content meant for adults, usually has intense violence or graphic sexual content and nudity.

Adventure: plots that have to do with characters going on an adventure or something like it.
Comedy: Any manga that has humorous situation or satirical in tone, usually has happy resolutions.
Doujinshi: Fan based work that is inspired by official anime or manga, not to be grouped with original works
Drama: Titles that bring emotional responses. instilling sadness or tension.
Ecchi: Titles borderline hentai and non hentai, ecchi will refer to fan service put in to attract a certain group of fans.
Fantasy: Any titles that involve but not limited to magic, dream world, fairy tales, myths
Gender Bender: Male characters dressed up as girls or turning into girls or Female characters dressing up as guys or turning into guys.
Harem: Titles involving one male or one female character surrounded by many characters of the opposite sex.
