Chocolate Underground

Dec 16, 2011

I highly reccomend this anime to everyone! What's great about it is, it's fairly short; so you don't have to take time out your daily life just to watch it. Each episode is about 5 minutes. And for an anime that was so short, it did have a pretty interesting story!

Even if you're are manga noobie, this series pretty much gives you the step-by-step process for making manga. Such as; writing the name/story board, creating a rough from that, drawing the final, and adding screen tones. It also goes over the tools needed to do the job such as dip pens, rulers, white-out, and straight razors.
