International Student Interviews

Professional Manga Artist Major. Ms. Yang (from Hong Kong). I'm aiming to make my debut in Japan.
International Student Interviews
Why did you choose to study in Japan?

I love Japanese animation and manga such as Sailor Moon, and I used to read Comic BonBon and other comics. I decided to come to Japan because my family recommended it and my friends supported me.

What led you to consider studying in Japan?

I thought there would be many chances to make my debut in Japan, because Japan's manga market is huge. Also, I thought I would be able to acquire solid techniques in Japan, rather than in Hong Kong or in China. I came to Japan in the October of 2008, studied at TLS (sister school of TCA) for 6 months, and then enrolled at TCA.

How is living in Japan?

I'm busy with school life and study, but every day is very productive.

How is your school life? ?

I came to Japan after I decided that I will be a professional manga artist, so I am studying very hard. At one of the in-school work critique sessions, I received a business card from a publisher editor, and was able to get my own publisher staff. I also got my own publisher staff for Weekly Shonen Magazine. I will work hard to make my debut. In the future, I would like to produce work in which I can send positive messages to the viewers, just like Mr. Hayao Miyazaki's "Castle in the Sky" and "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind."
