I feel that a combined approach is best. in my case, I watch anime subbed (i hate dubs anyhow), listened to a bunch of audio lessons, and added on to that I already know Chinese and my mother knows Japanese so that makes things even more convenient. The way it's working right now, I plan to just kee...

Cool. Did you guys make all the special effect yourselves?

before making any more of the actual manga, I guess I'll stick to character designs instead since they are very important. Here are a couple. http://leoxiao.deviantart.com/art/Nikolai-preview-khanka-122829764 The protagonist, Nikolai. http://leoxiao.deviantart.com/art/Xingkai-sketch-khanka-122826784...

Oh, duh, my bad. That's really cool.

Good job. Done with a tablet I assume?

Here is the first page (preview) of my manga. Please critique it. Yes I know it's kinda boring now but I have a few more pages that are being edited and finalized for photoshopping so I'll have more up soon. http://leoxiao.deviantart.com/art/Manga-Preview-Page-1-quot-XAHKA-quot-120561498 Oh, and jus...

I thought Light was cool in the beginning, but then he became not-so-cool when he started killing people just for fun and not being responsible. I never liked L that much (he was kinda interesting but not awesome), and Near and Mello were simply awful. Anyway, Light was a complete ass (though a bada...

2 and 4 are good. The other ones have potential but are too short and don't seem to go anywhere.

Good story. I had to re-read some parts (it's a little difficult to stay on track), but the idea is good and fairly concise. Some of the dialogue seems kinda awkward, but it doesn't ruin anything. I like the ending line for some reason.

I really liked Ghost in the Shell, Monster, Death Note, Evangelion, and Full Metal Panic. Those 5 are probably what come to mind whenever the question "what makes a good anime" comes up.

Death Note was completely awesome all the way, until the last episode. In fact, the second half seemed a little rushed (which it was, since the manga was longer), but this didn't really bother me until the final showdown. It was till pretty good, though it would've been great if they stayed faithful...

the coloring looks good, and they are overall very smooth looking. good work.

Ok, I'm new here. Hi everyone. I have a manga idea that I've been planning for a few months, but haven't discussed with anybody yet. My primary purpose at this time is to gather opinions on what I have so far. I'll start with a summary, and release more info if people are interested. My idea is titl...
