Yeah, definitely. 5. What was the first manga you ever bought for yourself? Wolf's Rain. 6. Name the pens you use for drawing manga and how you use them. If you ink digitally, name the sizes and types of brushes you use and how you use them. Sakura Micron pens, usually sizes 0.5 and 1.0 for general lines and 3.0 for thicker/bigger areas. 7. How long does it take you to do one page from planning to toning and lettering? If I do it all in a row around 3 hours. 8. What is the average length of your mangas? Long, haha.

Only a few VERY short periods, usually after a super long manga marathon, or sleeping sickness. 17. Do you usually know the ending of your manga before you begin?

Out of all your series, which one do you feel closest to? Please describe it in a few sentences. I feel the closest to my series Kurokenshin, not only because it was the first one I started, but also because I REALLY love the story, it even amazes me sometimes how deep it turned out to be. 19.
