I know it has been ridiculously long since I had a new post, however there were some delays and I just had many assignments to clear recently.

I promised to share updates from my previous post, “Manga Journey update: I am recommended for a job!“, about a new mini job.

First off, my first post at Digital Strips is finally up! It is a review on a webmanga, by the name of Model Behaviour, and if you are interested, do take a look at the review.

A female friend of mine commented to me about the webmanga that it is good. So do check it out if you are interested!

And there were some miscommunication, as the wrong authority rights for its website were given to me, hence my first post was pending for review for a long while.

Also, I was busy with my assignments in school, so it was really difficult to focus properly as just a few days ago, I had only 7 hours of sleep for 2 days!

So please pardon me.

I just tried inking with my manga teacher from my previous lesson, and it is really alot of things to learn again!

Seriously, after going through my inking lessons, learning how to create manga comics seems to be no end; but let me share with you my journey so that you are mentally prepared for it.

Manga News: Ane Doki just got axed!

series by Mizuki Kawashita



Ane Doki, a manga series that I have been following, just got axed by Shonen Jump!

It is said that the series was having bad ratings in Japan, and hence the publisher decided to axe this series.

That’s the world of manga in Japan; although you get to be very famous and your comic may never look like ending, like One Piece who has been running for more than 10 years, yet the downside of it is that your manga series can be easily axed when your comic isn’t favored by the community.

I am slightly disappointed that they didn’t continue with Ane Doki, which was getting interesting with the development.
