Art requires both inspiration and perspiration, creativity and effort. Inspiration can come from anywhere, from a good book like Howl's Moving Castle to an old manga and anime like Kimba the White Lion helping inspire The Lion King. However, while anime may have helped influence Disney products on a number of occasions, the same could also be said in reverse. Disney classics like Cinderella and The Little Mermaid help inspire anime series and manga in turn.

However, not all inspiration is the same. Though two series might be inspired by Snow White, the end product doesn't have the same plot or characters. It may not even be set in the same or similar worlds. Disney helped inspire plenty of the manga, but these are the ten best manga series Disney helped inspire.

We can count the number of anime based on light novels on our fingers because, as far as anime fans are concerned, there are only a handful of popular titles, such as Sword Art Online, Konosuba, and Spice and Wolf. However, there are numerous successful novels written by Japanese authors, and only a small percentage receive the desired adaptations.

Onmyoji, written by Baku Yumemakura, is a historical fantasy novel series that is among the most popular in both Japan and China. The novel inspired one of the most successful competitive games in China, Onmyoji Arena, as well as a few manga and animated films.
