    宮崎氏の紅の豚はイタリアのアドリア海が舞台だと思うけど、最終的にはイタリア人がイタリア社会・文化・歴史ものを描いて、「イタリア風」に消化・進化させたイタリアンコミックとしてのマンガを見てみたいと思いました。

    How do you get a scholarship to help pay off you’re living expenses to live in japan? What scholarship did you recieve? i would be appreciated if you answer back please :)

    well you should come up with your own style, never copy other people’s style of art and also, yes you should buy some book ’cause you never know when you stumble upon something you don’t know how to draw, also you should learn Japanese(of course) and practice every day and never let anyone tell you, you cant do it you can and good luck!!

    Hello i am just a fan art sketcher and am in love with manga. Where i live is very small and has hardly any fascilities. I really need guidance! I would really appreciate some advice. What should someone who is just starting manga do? Should i buy some books? Should i look at some sites? Also how do you gain motivation. Sorry to ask so much but you are very inspirational!

    Do you think that it is possible for a middle class American to get into Kyoto Seika university? And also pay for tuition and an apartment? I really want to go to this university, but I don’t have much money….

    学校で基礎を勉強するのも大事ですが、
    思い切ってアシスタントに応募するのも成長になると思いますよ
    絵柄的に少女漫画かな?
    絵の上達は継続と時間が全てですので頑張ってください。
    漫画は話も大事ですから若いうちにいろいろな体験をするのはいいですよ。
    歴史や伝記などを知るのも漫画に生きてくると思います。
    これはとある漫画家さんが言ってたことですが
    得た知識を自分の中で噛み砕いて新しいイメージにするのもひとつの手法です。
    例えばジャンケン グー、チョキ、パーで勝敗を決める単純なゲームですが
    これひとつでも頭の中でグーを鉄塊、チョキを刀、パーを紙のようにイメージすると
    かなり印象が変わってまるで別のゲームみたいになってきますよね
    ゲーム自体は鉄塊は水に沈むので負け
    鉄塊を刀で叩けば刀が折れるのでチョキの負け
    刀は紙を切れるのでパーの負けと変わりません
    慣れない土地で大変だと思いますが前向きに頑張ってるあなたを応援しています
    いつか紙面でお目にかかる日をお待ちしております

    日本でも色々と大変なことがあると思いますが、がんばってくださいね。
    あなたのような漫画家志望の人がいることを知れてよかった。
    応援しています。

    hi, I’m a gaijin. Do I need to take EJU (Examination for Japanese University Admission for International) if I wanted to to enter Kyoto Seika University to learn manga?

    The end of Moe Kare made my heart literally stoped. I loved that anime. I’m glad that you are there! It makes me happy :D

    for a college in japan it isnt expensive at all it comes at about 8573.60 USD, the normal cost for both semester and 2nd semester in japanese yen is 800000…so she probably worked in a little store or something but realtively it is very cheap compared to united states colleges..

    I imagine the narrator cocking his head to the side with a giant fake smile at the end of each sentence he says.

    Finisco col darti i miei più vivi complimenti per tutto quello che fai e sei riuscita a fare,sei bravissima e hai molto talento,perciò continua a sfruttarlo e continua a seguire i tuoi sogni!! ^^

    Sono italiana come te..che dire,ho visto per caso questo tuo video e non me ne sono affatto pentita,mi ha fatto riflettere su tante cose, sai ci somigliamo molto per passioni e altro in comune ma soprattutto per i manga,è da quando sono piccola che sogno anche io la stessa cosa e vedere che tu ci sei riuscita in parte mi rende abbattuta in parte felice,perchè sei riuscita a riaccendere un barlume di speranza in me sperando che anche io un giorno arrivi dove sei tu.
