We had an enriching experience at the Aloha Manga workshop. My daughter gained confidence in storytelling, learned to appreciate her unique style, and honed her manga technique through a playful and inspiring methodology. Thank you, Master Maekawa, for your valuable teachings!
From the U.S.
Wether you are a manga fan or not, this is a fantastic experience. I went with my 13y girl and she was really exited to meet and exchange with a real manga artist. We both spend a really great time learning basic tips to draw famous charracters and we even created our own.
The communication with Aloha manga staff was clear and friendly,

Manga Dojo were wonderful, my son loves manga and wanted to get better at drawing manga style so we wrote Manga Dojo as asked about a lesson whilst visiting Ikebukuro. They were very welcoming and kind setting up a lesson with Professor Maekawa, wow such an accomplished professional it is simply a life experience. A Prof. Maekawa was so educational and helpful, everyone there was welcoming, knowledgable and had amazing sense of humor!
We are beginners but they were so patient and kind, this was really educational, and insightful. We left with new skills, and my son with renewed passion for drawing, this was such a positive experience I recommend Manga Dojo for a wonderful and educational Manga experience.
