I should have done this right after Calamity Jane, but it's time to laugh, Wild ARMs style!

At my crappy I job I usually pass by these shoddy how-to-draw-manga books every day, and one always catches my eye because THIS is on the cover.



I mean, it normally would with how embarrassingly it's drawn, but, isn't that Jack with his little pet, from Wild ARMs? xD



It kills me too how he's ready to card-battle on the cover, or whatever the hell he's doing there. Jack the swordsman. Everyone knows his weapon of choice was... CARDS. Yeah.

Those better be gella cards. >:T

I feel inclined to show you the back of this book too, so you can see the price point. That way you can all collectively cry together, because I know almost all of my Watchers are better artists than this. xD;;



I AM INSPIRED!!! And if 'May Li' or 'Ashe Raven' are one of my Watchers, lolololwoopsry.

The...authors? Drawers? 11-year-old-es? Well, their names sound like Mary Sue names or something.

I have a couple books like this, one that I thought was ~*AMAZING*~ back in the day, and another that was eh. And then my mom got my some others for Christmas one year that are decent as far as manga-drawing-how-to books go. They have hard covers so they MUST be higher quality mirite?

Better quality than this paper-thin cover, at least. 8D

PLEASE explain to me how these two "artists" got a BOOK DEAL!!! Were they two spoiled rich kids who paid off that company to post their terrible attempt at anime?? I am ashamed and scared right now. What the hell is that mushroom thing on the back holy jesus.

Awww, you were nice enough to call them "artists".

And that was the appropriate reaction to this. Good job!

I . . . don't even know what to say. Actually, I do. I'm ashamed that I once owned a book like this. Now you know my dark, evil secret!
