You are right;the terminology is like this these days.
I'm more active in the anime networks than in manga,that's why the error on my part.
*Edit: Title adjusted*

BTW, one of the first animes that got shipped and became popular in Europe and USA was by Manga Corp. People over here called anime "manga",just because all we had was anime from Manga (the black cross with a red sun on the back - logo). Only later on the term Manga was used in Europe for the comic books,and anime for the cartoons.
It took a long time for the comic books to become popular here vs the anime (Japanese Anime became popular around the '90's, Manga about 10 years later).
