What're some ways to make a book(novel) as Manga seeming as possible?!


Question: I'm writing a couple of stories, and I definitely get my inspiration from Manga that I read.
[If u dont know what Manga is, it's Japanese comics, fairly long, that are usually eventually made into an Anime(Japanese cartoon)]
The thing that I love about Manga is the way you get so much into the character's thoughts, but in a novel, it's a little harder to do that because a lot of times u wanna try focusing on detail rather than thoughts
So like I said in my question, How do I make a novel as Manga like as possible, but not eliminate too much of the detail?

I think what you're saying is that you want to write a story that focuses on characters as opposed to detail, in which case the answer is very simple: change your writing style. A change from third to first person can get more inside a character's head, or a change from detail-heavy writing to dialog-heavy writing can focus the story on action and interaction. Remember that just because there are no pictures doesn't mean you have to describe anything you don't want to, and furthermore describing something from a character's perspective gives the reader information about the character as well as the object (e.g. generation-specific adjectives and feelings towards different objects - a character who calls a video game "hardcore and sweet" is obviously different from one who describes it as "dangerously violent for an impressionable youth.")
