Are there audiobooks for manga (in Japanese)?

September 13, 2009 6:48 PM

Does anyone know of any web sites that provide you spoken manga? Specifically what I'm looking for is audio files for manga, read in Japanese, so I can listen to it and follow along in the manga I already own. Sometimes I have my Japanese wife read a manga to me, but often she is too busy or unwilling. I can read it myself, of course, but my Japanese is not yet good enough to know proper pronunciation, intonation and rhythm, and so on, so I find it helpful if someone reads to me. Anyways, any ideas?

I ususally buy the Japanese manga versions of Studio Ghibli movies (from eBay). Unlike American movie-to-comic adaptations, they contain the exact lines said in the film.
