Customer Reviews:

Best software for drawing Manga I've yet seen [Posted on 2007-05-07]
I drew a 15 page mini-comic last month partly to test the software out, and really ended up liking Manga Studio in the process. The big win for me was the default set of pens that actually behave more or less like real-world pens do. That, and a rotating canvas (space-shift to access this feature fast). And well-implemented comic tones. And programmable speed lines. And decent captioning. And did I mention the great pens? Other people I know who tried it also love the automatic panel divisions, although I haven't tried that feature out yet. It tends to get a bit slow on a Mac if you zoom in very close, but my solution was to work with a relatively zoomed-out image.

Much easier to use than I expected! [Posted on 2007-08-10]
I love this software so far! I just wish I could afford Manga Studio EX just for the extra features!
This software is wonderful in providing me the chance to sketch before I throw together a composition!
I admit the fact that layers can be used as either a finished drawing or sketch is a big help. Too bad you can't make drawings in color!
