Dear koyamori (https://www.deviantart.com/koyamori), I don't really know how to tell you this, but you're a pervert. I think I realized it when we skinny dipped in the bathtub, outside of your office and I saw you pull the clothes off the elephant in the corner. I'm sure you're man enough to understand that there is no solution to you being a dumbkid. I'm returning your false teeth to you, but I'll keep your suicide note as a memory. You should also know that I HATE your cooking and our friendship is ruined. Go drown yourself Me. -------------------------------------------------- The worst part is it is kind of coherent, except for the elephant part... memic:http

It has been a while since my last journal. I finally got a new bike to replace the last one, but now I am thinking of getting myself a car and so I will need to learn how to drive. My instructor is kind of crazy; I spent the first morning learn to change gears and turn the wheels under the sun and that very afternoon, after 5 minutes warm up in the field I get to hit the road, chasing cows and stuff... The next day is the same except I have to do some parking and precise driving exercises. He said I will be ready for the test in four more days 0_0'. Unfortunately, I have to go back to the city for some business related issues. Interesting n

Hello random deviant :XD:
Hi. We're trying to prove that Americans can make a good manga, too. Tell us what you think.:):)
There was a time when I want to make a Macross doujin but with original characters and setting; I was almost done with the plot when I realize that why bother with other material when with some extra work I can make it completely original? So why make manga when you can make other things?

The answer is probably to borrow the popularity of then franchise to make yourself know... Your thought on that?
Well, it's more like a desire to show that we can use the art style ouselves, if we want, and keep the plots just as good. Although, riding the coat-tails of the popular does make things easier.
Is there a need for that? Japanese are also people, so the things they can do anyone else can. Although I know there are people who automatically switch off when they see a style they don't like, that is pretty much how the biz work; you can either stick to what you got and produce what you want risking small audience or chase the rating and try to please the audience.

So far I dont see anythings new in American comics, they are still locked in the age old setting, secret agents with gadgets (spawned from Bonds movies), super heroes ('nuff said), fantasy adventure (spawned from Tolkien's, witch and wizard (who know where this came from) and what ever Startrek and StarWar produce.
So I guess the differences is not only in the art but also the story telling style and narrative medium. Take a poke at that.
