I LOVE Endless World by Jaryuu Dokuro too!! Is one of my favorite mangas, and it's like fresh mountain air in the 801 world!
And I LOVE the Penguins too!!!! xD xD I can't decide which one is my favorite. Private! Rico! Skipper! Kowalsky! I didn't like so much Madagascar, but I really liked the Penguins, they were the best! Now with the series I'm happy, and one of my favorite chapters is "I was a penguin zombie", hahaha!
And I'm sorry for the question 3) I didn't mean to show spoilers hehe
But now I'm excited!!

Isn't Endles World just so intense, touching, and sexy!? It's
one of the few manga that can make me cry xD (the others
being One Piece and Tegami Bachi).

I think Kowalksy is my favorite, but it's hard to pick ;; because
they are all best as a group together. "Kowalsky! Options!"

Hehe don't apologize! Just keep reading and I'll be happy! <3

I'm sure if this was asked before, if so my bad, but how long does it take to draw up a chapter?

Do you have a favorite video game?

Do you have a favorite season?

Do you have a favorite sport or if you even like sport?

Weirdest thing you ever done?

Public transportation or Bike?

That's it for me, wow really random question lol.

Random questions are the most enjoyable!!

1) Each chapter takes me about 9 days to do. A day for
sketching the chapter, and then ink two pages a day after.

2) I have lots of favorites! Persona 4 is a big favorite of
mine. Also I LOVE Hotel Dusk for the Nintendo DS...

3) My favorite season is fall! It's just the right amount of
chilly, the colors are fantastic, and all the bugs are starting
to die off, hah!

4) Well I used to be a swimmer myself.... However
I really am not so into sports... But if I had to pick one,
it would be American Football. I do watch the Superbowl
every year ;3;

5) Weirdest thing...? When I was younger, I got my head
stuck in a turnstyle... maybe thats the stupidest thing I've
ever done, not necessarily the weirdest, LOL

6) I have a car! So... neither! I live out in the mountains
where biking anywhere would be killer (riding up mountains?
Yikes!) and there isn't a lot of public transportation.

Thank you and come again! xD Ask me anything, I think it's
fun to chat with you guys.

american football? that's quite interesting, very different from swimming for sure

ncaa? what's your team?

Hello! No, I don't really watch college sports... sorry ;;
Usually I cheer for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers! But
now that I'm a New Yorker, maybe I should start
rooting for the Giants?

Football huh? Not much of a fan of that lol, but when it comes to Futball, soccer, then you're talking my language(no offense to those who love american football) I like other sports but don't want to keep blabbering on, lol. Nice to talk to a fellow New Yorker, upstate or the NYC?

Upstate! I'm cheerfully nestled in the Catskills. I'll actually be
in Florida for the winter with my family, but this is my new home.

I'm actually writing and drawing my own comic right now, do you have any advice when it comes to i?

Don't worry I'm not asking for your secrets of comic drawing or anything, just little advice for starters.

Well that's a very broad request! But I'll do my best... ;_;
First off, never stop looking for places where your comic and
artwork can improve! I'm always looking for ways to improve
my stories even as I go along and work on them now ;3;

Also, never give up. If you think you have a story that you
love and feel passionate about, keep looking for ways to get
it published or self publish! Eventually you will be in the right
place at the right time and you'll finally get noticed by people
who've got connections. All the jobs I have now sorta fell
out of the sky onto my head, after advertising all over.

Also! What I'm learning now is about the joy of unique
characters! What I mean is, it's a lot more fun to have a lot
of unique and different characters in your comic. People tend
to always pick a favorite that way, and they're more curious
about them. I'm slowly working in more characters into Land
of Lions, and I think it's important to show their personalities...
A lot of comics I see have kind of.. bland characters or very
typical cliche characters? I think it's more interesting when
there's someone in there who has a completely new and
fresh personality type. Maybe they are very flawed, but that
makes them more enjoyable to read about and see how
they grow and learn throughout the plot.

Was that too broad? Or maybe not what you were looking
for at all? xD I'm sorry. I'm still in a constant process of
learning myself! But if you have anymore specific questions
please ask!

no no no that was great, I'm really happy you answered my question first of all.
I'm just still in the processes of my senior year of undergraduate school in Ohio. So to relieve my pressure I think about my story and characters and sketch them out... probably should be writing a paper for English but whatever.
Anyways, the fact is that i am just getting all the characters out of my head and on to a paper and hopefully "twick" them some more to make them perfect in my eye.

I suppose what I meant was I like being able to share the things
I write with the world! Does that make sense? Maybe not lol, sorry.
Unfortunately due to an ...incredibly heavy workload, I don't have
a lot of time to read many novels these days ;; I have a pile of
books that just keeps getting taller that I keep intending to read.

You are welcome to share stories but I can't promise how soon I'd
be able to read them ;o;
