Creating Manga Characters

Morag Lewis

Manga is an emotive and expressive form of storytelling that has become popular worldwide; vivid and fascinating characters make a large contribution to its appeal. Characters are an essential component of a good story, crucial to the plot and vital for engaging the reader’s interest and emotions. They are also enormous fun to imagine and to draw, but it not always easy to fit your characters, your world and your plot together to create a seamless, convincing whole.
