I'm not a visual art fan. When I read manga I pay way more attention to the text than the art. Visual art is innocuous to me, it's just there. Like, if you knew someone in college who had a bunch of movie posters in their room, after you've been in their room a few times you don't even notice any more? It's like that from the start with all static visual art (paintings/statues/pictures etc) for me.

manga without the art.... like a book?

basically, I didn't even notice until I was reading chapter discussions and people were discussing some of the background characters doing something silly that I had no idea was happening.

Ok, what about other art forms?
