A manga is a comic book. A light novel is written in text, usually short, and with a few illustrations.

Both are different, but not as different. A light novels has less illustrations than a manga, but a manga shows pictures of how the action is shown. Light novels put words to show the action or what is happening

Anime, normally refers to watching a video/show/movie with manga-style art. Manga, as stated above, is more the style of art. It can also be used to refer to just plain Manga, or "Comic books".

The word 'manga' literally means comic in Japanese, actually. A manga book can be just one volume in a series of numerous volumes, or the story can consist of just one volume. The differences between Japanese manga and western comic books are: manga is read from right-to-left (contrary to the western left-to-right)*, and manga volumes tend have more pages than western comic books (usually 150-200 pages), also the art styles of manga (though varying within themselves) differ from the art of western comic books. Besides those differences, manga still consists of drawings, dialogue in speech bubbles, panel setups, and written sound effects.

*Note: However some manga, such as those created in the west, are read in the left-to-right format.

If you want to compare something to comics, it should be the manga and not the anime.

Manga is a kind of comics, a Japanese comics, which has a special drawing styles and other characteristic which makes him different from comics in other countries (Though sometimes Korean comics remind mangas a lot).

Anime is serious/movie adation to the manga, just as many other comics got their own TV shows or movies.
