Umm... Does anyone have a recommendation for a good manga I can watch online? I could watch that as my tutorial. 

How do you watch manga... That sounds boring...
*imagines staring at a page for half an hour*

Try reading... Erm...

How old are you?

The thing is, you have to browse though all of his uploaded videos. To do this use the scroll bar to the right of the video. Mark is the best manga help guy on youtube (at least I think so).

Here are some example videos

Manga/anime can also be T.V. shows (like Hetalia  )

This person said manga specifically. You cannot "watch" manga unless you like staring at pages of a book.

consist of comics and print cartoons

ANIME is what you can watch.

He said manga/anime in the topic title. *Facepalm*

But the post I was quoting said manga.

Umm... OK. I shall try. In the mean time. In the mean time, I am going to create a competition here. A manga/anime competition! You can draw or create a scratch project or image file and then at some point I shall judge it! Go on!

If you haven't gotten a how to draw guide here on scratch yet- I actually have one.

I hope you find that useful!

well that's not helpful with recommendations considering age since I don't really know any for that age and higher.

Thx!

Hetalia with subtitles. BONUS: You also learn how to draw chibis. Linkyness.

I hav an idea. I have now officially changed the title from here to...
How to draw manga in Scratch?!

You draw things in scratch the same way you would draw with any other drawing program.

Also, if you really want to learn just watching anime is bad advice. You probably have watched tons of cartoons but do you understand the process behind making them, probably not. You learn by doing not by watching.

I am posting this again because Mark has some of the best video tutorials online for drawing anime. He writes manga comic books for a living so he really knows his stuff. If videos are not your thing or you don't like youtube for whatever reason then a google search on "how to draw anime" produces tons of useful links.

People need to stop telling him he needs to watch anime cartoons to learn how to draw, that not how it works...

This is pretty cool! But is there actually any storyline to it? I don't care if there isn't because it is still amazing but I was just wondering.

By English I mean speaking in English. I dont really care that much because of Hetelia (:-D) with subtitles but oh well. This would be good too.
