Great book, young girl friendly
From Amazon

I bought this book for my manga-crazy 11 year old daughter. It's hard to find manga/anime that is age-appropriate for her. This book was terrific, she really improved her drawing skills. Plus, it gave her lots of ideas for her own characters. Enjoy!

Good book for drawing and as a reference.
From Amazon

Enjoyed the layout and material. Feel it would be good for anyone who is tired of the how to books that never get to the point.

My daughter loves to draw Manga
From Amazon

If you know Manga, then you'll enjoy this drwaing book. She has been in school art classes and some art teachers like and repect Manga art and some don't. It is a very different way to draw, and some of my daughters art drawing are neat. This Manga makes her very happy and it has ton to facial detail.

Dated and has no info on coloring
From Amazon

The style used in here is more like mid-90's. There is also no guide for any method on coloring or pening in the whole book. I guess because it's specifically for "magical girls" that's its excuse for having nothing on coloring. I threw it in the trash.

This is great
From Amazon

Just what i was looking for my daughter is starting to really draw. I hope she likes it as much I do, if not, won't be much of a loss since I will take over. Great details, lot of variety and instruction in an easy to read and follow way.
