oh my gosh i wish i could draw manga i have no artistic talent crying

Me I can draw the weapon of Inuyasha.

Naruto is the coolest manga, but it drives me crazy because only the first seven volumes have been translated. I want to know what happens next!!!!
It is still so early in the series, and then it just cuts off right in the middle of the 2nd part of the chunin exam. I have to know what happens. I was tempted to get the tv series and watch it, but that just is so much less fun!!!

[Albert_Hitchhock]

So, I can't draw manga at all. Instead I dream up my own stories, but I never write it down because I am embarrassed, or rather afraid that they are stupid stories.
What I am really good at is zoning out in class while I dream of being cool like Kakashi. I mean talk about a cool guy.

[Albert_Hitchhock]

Did I mention that I love Kakashi? And I don't mean that in a creepy, stalk-and-try-to-sleep-with-him way, I'm not that kind of guy. I love him like I wish I could be like that. He's always so cool and quiet. He's got his s**t together. The character that I am more like is Naruto--I can't keep my mouth shut. But there is a lot to be said for over-confidence. If I can just convince someone else that I know what I am doing, then I start to believe it myself. And once I start believing the garbage that I say, then other things start to follow. It shocks me how far I have gotten in life by just telling myself that I know how to do things that I don't. I'm no ninja, but I am a master rock climber, and it's one of those things where I started out pretending to be good, and I got better faster than the people who actually admitted that they were bad climbers.
Am I making any sense?
Either way, I would rather be cool like Kakashi. He's the man. If I was a chick, I'd be a Kakashi groupie. I'm rambling, aren't I? Sorry 'bout that.

talk2hand Shrright! Kakashi IS cool. Actually, the whole manga itself (Naruto) is very well thought out, the action is amazing, the characters have a lot of depth... it has GOT to be one of my favorites. I'm too impatient to keep up with the American volumes (I still buy them) so I'm waaay ahead by reading scanlations. It's great fun. smile

Next to that, GTO (Tohru Fujisawa) is just amazing. The art looks realistic (but still carries that anime style) and the whole set around school and the people around it thing is put together really well. All the characters are interesting, there are a lot of twists, and everyone follows the good guy (although not in the eyes of Ms. Daimon... yet biggrin ) -- 22 year old virgin, bleached blonde hair, Eikichi Onizuka. Oh yeah~

But that's only naming a few of my favorites.
