Join the Dark Side, Get an Anime Job

03/25/08 0814 hours

A fellow named Kirk Bangstad wrote up this article about how the growing interest in anime and manga has led to a ton of kids joining art schools to learn to draw so that they can make anime and manga.

Frankly, it’s an incredibly poorly-written article full of no new information, but I thought I’d use it as a stepping stone: any of you guys art students? My best friend went to the San Francisco Academy of Art University; her style isn’t very manga-like anymore, but I think it’s still part of where she started drawing. Anyone else inspired into art by manga and anime?
