| I really don't understand why you have to make it read from right to left... unless your Japanese, there is no point in doing so. |

I like the first picture the best. The side view on your characters look majorly awesome! Can't wait to hear what it's about! Oh and the girl character...I like the hair it looks freshly blown.  |

| FYI, it is generally considered unprofessional to make a manga in right to left format if you speak English. The only reason people in Japan draw them that way is because that's the way their language reads. It's impossible to make a Japanese manga in you're not Japanese. An American manga from an American is far more authentic than a faux-Japanese manga from an American. |

I understand your argument of course but I liked it right to left. Though it doesn't matter what I liked it matters if the author liked it. And did he like it? He wouldn't make it that way if he didn't! And maybe right to left is what he feels comfortable reading. Take all these matters into mind when commenting on someones work. Don't just automatically jump to saying you don't like it if it's just something as stupid as an American author making a manga the Japanese way. If he does so decide to consider a career as a mangaka in Japan he would print it this way anyways.  |

well I already started the manga, and I already have a few more pages sketched, Im not gonna restart the manga just because of format.
But now I know that I should use left-to-right format in my next manga.

| Okay. Sorry if I made a fuss I just think that if you like what you did it should be fine no matter what format. besides it feels weird for me to read manga in left to right format so that's probably why I liked it so much. Keep going cuz your art rocks. |

| RandomChic , it's not a matter of not liking it, or what an author is comfortable with. Making a manga right-to-left in English makes as much sense as writing a English novel right-to-left because it is set in Japan, or having word bubbles in an incomprehensible order. It is just flat out wrong, and makes things harder for the reader. Just because you're used to reading the wrong way round doesn't mean that everyone else is, or that it should be expected as the norm. |
