I'll go second then ^. My name is Justin and i'm still in high school. I currently live in Canada but i'm Taiwanese descent. Unfortunately, I don't think i'll be any help to you Yamamoto because i'm pretty much still practicing drawing... sorry. But hopefully if the club gets bigger someone who already is a manga artist can help you out and thank you for creating this club |

Hey, my name is Mel. I'm a homeschooled 15 years old girl from a farm in America & I'm part Asian. I'm dreaming to be a mangaka artist and currently in the process of making my very first manga. I'm also learning Japanese at a surprisingly fast rate and I hope one day I can see the exotic country of Japan where everything I love originated from. |

Hi I am Shojoukachan (my net name). I live in India and I always had a fascination for comics. I used to suck at drawing and hate it at core. But manga changed my perspective to see drawing and I am good at it now. I am currently writing a shoujo and I hope to get it published in Japan. I want to live there forever and learn Japanese. Let's be friends and help each other to achieve our aim! |

Hello everyone! I am Ash, a girl from Doha, Qatar. Drawing is my hobby and I actually wanted to major in Art, but somehow I ended up as a mass communication student.

I'm Daisy, 25 years old. I'm currently a Computer Science student. I'm supposed to take a degree in Game Development (since I really love arts)... but I decided to take it after I finish CompSci. Don't ask why.. it's a long story. Drawing, reading, writing and playing the piano are my favorite hobbies. I love anime since I was kid. I rarely read manga since I have a hectic schedule... in that case, I prefer reading light novels. What else? I don't do cosplays (so expensive) but I love attending anime/cosplay conventions just for fun. I'd like to learn Japanese and be fluent at it. In fact, I would like to live in Japan for a couple of years when I get a job. That's all. Hope to know you guys much better. Yoroshiku Onegaishimasu!!! |

Hi, just joined. My real name is secret, so you can just call me Arashi. I'm 20, and I live in the states. I've been drawing since I was a kid but sadly, there is still much room for improvement. I'm actually not very active on MAL except for updating my list but hopefully this club will make that change.

Hello there, I am David. I am currently majoring in a tourism degree (under bachelor of commerce). Living in Western Australia. I picked up drawing pretty late, in 2012 (at 18years old). My style is traditional. i cannot do digital art to save my life. If I ever draw real people, it will more than likely be cyclists (my favourite sport) |

Hi, my name Mi, and first of all I would like to thank you for the invitation. I'm just starting a normal high school in America (my native country is Thailand though) in the next few days - I'm 14. I draw mostly digitally using my touch screen laptop that come with a digital pen (since my sister can't ruin them). I'm not good at drawing, or writing, at all, but I'm working and hoping to become better - so I'm very excite to join this club and meet you all. |

H! I am Ahmed but you can call me Em if you want. Nice to meet all of you :) I am an 17 years old guy from Pakistan who loves anime, manga, vocaloid, utaite, games etc. I also happen to like singing, drawing, writing and a few other things. I draw but I rarely show my artworks to anyone on internet. In the past, I was into drawing way more but now I don't as much, but that's more because of my wide range of interests and some real life issues. Anyways, I still draw whenever I can and hope to become better. And that's it. Hope we can get along well ^^ |

Well I just joined, My name Eric and I'm from the bottom of the world, Australia seriously we get all the cool stuff last...and I might be a bit late to the party :/ . Anyway I'm 18, I've been doing art on and off since I was a kid, but sadly I did't do the manga style art, I did abstract for 4 years and then I did western perfectionist art for 6 months, so I can draw an apple on a plate alright (it will still take me ages :/) and I have little confidence drawing people... I must say reading everyone's comments is really inspiring, I want to learn Japanese as well, and living there will be awesome, but I think I'm a bit to lazy to become a mangaka, it would be yearly up dates... Anyway I hope to improve my drawing skills along with everyone :D. AND GOOD LUCK ON YOUR DREAMS GUYS! |

Hi Hi! I am Creator_Kun, I'm 18 and I live in the United States. Not really in a school or anything, but I did decide to leave the place and focus on improving my art style in order to become a manga-ka. I'm fairly one-dimensional and there aren't many things that I do that don't involve manga, anime or drawing. Except cooking. Hopefully, I don't regret joining this club. I don't usually spend much time on a computer. It's a hassle... |

Hajimemashite, minnasan. I see that many of you are newbies to MAL (like me). The name is Zurel, I answer to Zu and Zuu as well. My gender is up to your speculation, I can be either. I am 24, 99% of you peeps are younger than me, so follow my lead my little lambs😆 I do not meet the specification of this club. I am not serious about being mangaka. My aim is at most comic strips and 8-page comic which is standard for oneshots in my country. I have 2-year worth of experience, and I am here to help you big dreamers by sharing knowledge and experience, as well as resources. I am a traditional artist. I use watercolour (both palette and tube) and watercolour pencil mostly, as well as colour pencil. I also use COPIC markers and pastel, but rarely. Basically it is the combination of all these materials, as I see fit. As for digital painting, I am a beginner. I use Wacom Intuos4, Photoshop CS6, PaintoolSAI on my lap top, and Autodesk Sketchbook and ArtFlow on my Samsung Galaxy Note. I spent plenty of time on my Samsung, consequentially I am way better at using the sketchbook apps than my Wacom. Hopefully I can be of help around here. |

^ Ah, but I'm older. I suppose I must be the 1%, huh. So where's my billions at, eh? Ah, but jokes aside, hello good folks! I'm Jackdaw, or at least that's what I usually go by online (was taken on MAL so I ended up using an old, old nick). I used to be very active in junior high. Dreamt of becoming a professional cartoonist and drew things everyday. Ended up getting into making video games and music instead in high school and forward instead, so I've been inactive for about 8 years now, but I recently started up again. Burnt out on making games so went back to drawing again. Feels a bit weird, my skills are about the same as they ever was, but I seem to lack that endless creativity and spontanity I had in my youth. Maybe it'll come around. My style is quite old school as well. Pen and paper in a relatively clean and minimalistic style. I usually just work with Faber-Castell pencils and finish by inking with calligraphy pens of various sizes, then erasing the pencil lines once the ink sets. I draft the comic layout first on sketch paper then draw the final version on quality drawing paper. For details I often make use of cross-hatching techniques. Anyway, I'm not a very active artist, but I might contribute a piece once in a while. Quite busy with studying Japanese, reading and doing research. Either way, よろしく (yoroshiku) and all that. I'll be sticking around for a while. |

Are you... are you accusing us of wishing to talk about our interests and hobbies with like-minded people? Why... Speaking of which, how long have you been studying le Nihongo?

Just that some people come here for a club and only after that for listing and other things. I would imagine a site where everyone is an artist, like DA, as more befitting. Ne, Tas-san. Ano kawaii kao wa Tas-san no kao na no? Etooo... megane o kakeru? Eagle_Tas said: Speaking of which, how long have you been studying le Nihongo?

Tabun ni nen gurai benkyoushita, kedo ima zen zen renshushinai kara, atashi no Nihongo wa mou bara bara ni natta. Someone is trying to make me study Japanese again. Satus: moderately suspicious. Target locked: Eagle_Tas. All jokes aside, thank you for correcting me. I learned four years back but hadn't practised Japanese much for past the past couple of years, so I have gone more than rusty. Probably already defunct, nahaha. Thankfully still can read the kana, but my kanji sucks! |

@Eagle_tas & @Zurel, this is not a threat, not even a warning or anything like that. But please, try not to use the club threads for personal conversations, you can use the comments section in your own profile pages for that. It's just to avoid an excess of out-of-theme posts. Thanks. |

Hello my name is Eli I am 19, born in the U.S., and trying to develop my drawing ability. I am hoping to become a mangaka but since the person teaching me skipped out on me I wanted to find a circle to help better myself and make new friends in the process. |
My first and only lesson by my teacher was "just draw and do it again." |
