Of course if you have dialup this could be a little slow, but you should get an idea, anyway.

Unfortunately, I have dialup :-( But I should still be able to download a few pages to get an idea, so thanks, that should help!

The three rows of two sounds like the same format typical of US comics. I guess maybe the main difference is the division into chapters instead of issues. How long is the average chapter, about?

BTW I was about to mention, the hair and look of some of the characters reminds me of these X-Men characters, leading me to suspect that either X-Men was influenced by manga/anime at the time these characters were introduced (late 80s/early 90s), or else X-Men influenced manga/anime:

I think chapters vary. Um.. Kenshin, for instance, is usually 9 chapters of 20 pages. Fullmetal Alchemist is 4 chapters of anywhere from 35 to 60 pages. In general, I think the books are about 200 pages long.
