>I don't get the point of having one labeled just for manga
Ever since the 2000s there has been a marketing trend for listing random shit as being somehow related to manga. Often (but not always) lower-end stuff. It's to get teenagers who know nothing to tunnel vision on it. Generally it's limited to some lines of paper with less tooth to it, pens, and markers. Despite manga rarely being colored with markers, there's a persistent... myth? assumption? among people younger than 25 that colored manga images are done mostly with markers rather than watercolors or digital (I know some exceptions exist but those are rare).
The Canson Graduate line is one of their lower end ones but I honestly like a lot of what's there. I considered getting the manga sketchbook because it has a nice texture but I already have a good stock of paper. I legitimately like their graduate black paper a bit better than their XL black paper too.
