Same, I wonder this, too. . .

I would like to become a mangaka one day. Although I don't think my art is all that good as of yet (My DeviantART page is in my sig :S ). . . My parents probably don't support me that much to become an artist (They don't know much about what I like), so it's kinda a hard situation for me. . . I'm still not sure if I can become a mangaka because the process of getting there harder than it looks when you think about it, but hey, that is like with every job. . . Isn't it??

-Sighs- If not a mangka, then at least an illustrator, like a free-lancer or something lulz. I need to learn more about business. e_e"

Id love to be able to draw as well as pro manga artists, it's amazing what they do! Im not sure if I could ever draw for a living tho', so much pressure and I can never draw a character more than once..... I reckon I might just keep drawing for myself, but a professional manga artist.... *sigh* That's one of the dreams xD

I would love to be a manga/comic artist. I think i would be a comic artist cause i live in America and so such things. I'm proficient at drawing, but have a lot of trouble with writing and story telling.

You guys might enjoy this. It is a comic artist tracing 100 different styles of manga "eyes" which goes to show, there are as many styles in manga as there are artists.

Oh yes!
 
I wanted to be manga artist for the longest time.
I am currently trying to get major in computer graphics so we will be how that goes.. maybe I can use that to create my own manga.
The thing about manga that I find most important is the storyline which I suck at so I guess I will just draw some pretty pictures. :p

I kinda did and I might go to college in Japan but I'm more interesting in writing now. I still draw for enjoyment all the time.

Oh, haha. I've seen the video. Pretty cool. Mark Crilley, the user of the YouTube account, gives me more motivation to become a mangaka. Like, I have a chance, too. x]
