Loved this

This was an excellent experience. Great for creators and budding artists. Even if you're neither of those, this will be an unforgettable experience in Japan! Highly recommend.

Perfect for beginners!

This was a perfect class for beginners. They taught us the basics of creating shapes and faces then creating a short manga. The teacher was enthusiastic and talented. We loved it!

A fun experience learning about manga as an artist

This was much fun to do as an artist, getting to learn some about this part of Japanese culture and explore a few manga creating techniques from a published manga artist. I could pick a few topics that I wished to learn more about in the advanced course. You can choose between three levels of classes, so whether you are a beginner or have experience with art, you can still try it. It was a bit hard to see where to enter the building from the outside, but I found it, and the google maps location was accurate as well. Friendly and welcoming staff (one manga artist and one english interpreter). The manga artist could give me some good tips about the topics I was asking about. The admission fee can be lower when booking for a group, compared to having a private lesson as I did. For me it was worth the experience, as I have great interest in drawing and wanted to try my hand at manga while visiting Japan. We covered a few topics in two hours without it feeling too rushed. I believe they have further courses for those interested in continuing the experience or learning even more. (They also had an anime course that I was quite interested in, but the admission fee was personally a bit too high for me to do it on a solo basis, as they use more equipment for this).
