If your not sure whether the creator of the anime series "Naruto" reads English then it would probably be best to write in Japanese if possible .

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The creator of Naruto probably makes around 10 -20 million a year because every merchandise that has something to do with naruto Masashi Kishimoto gets a cut from that merchandise. Also, Naruto sold around 3.5 million copies last year and also every page in the shonen jump magazine that has Naruto chapter on it he gets paid around 120 dollars per page or more depending how popular Naruto gets.

What materials does Masashi Kishimoto use for his art?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, Pencil.

Rubber

Fineliner pen

For the sketches

From there I'm guessing a tablet to draw the images onto the computer .

A scanner to scan the sketches into the computer

and computer art programs so he is able to get the detail he wants into the frames.

Saves money and time.

From what can I say, if Kishimoto started working on mangas in 1997, than he didn't used any computer programs or so...He uses traditional drawings on paper...

First he uses pencil that makes soft lines, not to hard...Second, he uses liner or G pen for inking, and third he uses copic markers or acrylic colors for painting, but then he needs water proof ink for inking.

How much do you get for being a manga artist?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The payment you get depends on you. When you first start out there is a lot you need to pay. Materials, printing, publishing, assistants if needed etc. Most mangaka I know only make 円49,232+ (they are beginners). If you are able to become very popular you can get signed to a large publishing company. Most of which can pay you quite handsomely. (if your manga is popular) But the draw back is they tell you what to draw most of the time. (they'll "fix" things here and there.) You can read this forum to get a better idea: http://www.japanforum.com/forum/anime-manga/12748-mangaka-salary.html

What education and training is required to become a manga artist?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Collage is not really required to become a manga artist as long as you know how to draw and you are good with the coloring, and shading, and word bubbles, but I wold not recommened this being a set career this should be something that you do in your spare time while working another job because if becoming a manga artist doesn't work out then it is best to have something to fall back on (:

Who is Masashi Kishimoto's wife?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yep, he is actually married.. Though the only "information" about it is in the English version of vol 20, one of the editors states "Congratulations on your marriage and 4 year anniversary [of Naruto] (and birthday)--!!!"

But no one seems to know about the wife. I guess no one knows.

Is akira toriyama fan of Superman?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Probably, since whole myth 'bout Sayan super race and Super Sayan is similar to Superman and people of planet Krypton...Sayans were race of superhumans who lived on planet Vegeta...Unlike people of Krypton who were peaceful, Sayans were conquerors who conquered planets in Universe for excenge of good in techology...They all died when Frieza evil lord destroyed their planet, leaving only Goku or Kakarot, Vegeta, Radiz, Napa and Vegeta's brother alive...Later Napa and Radiz died...Goku was only good Sayan because he hit his head while being a baby, and Vegeta turned a new leaf after fight wit Frieza...So there are similarity between Goku or Kakarot and Clark or Kal El, in few thing, firs both are fighting for good, second both are aliens from planet of superhuman, that were destroyed, both have Earth and Alien names, and both were fighting evil people who survived from their planet to protect Earth...So if you take options that artists usually copy what they like, I think yes, Toriyama was Superman fan

Best colleges for anime artist?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There really isn't a school made specifiacally for cartooning, but any school of artr would be c\good. They also have college groups who just draw comics for fun. If you really just want to draw anime or a career, go to a school of art, get good at cartooning, and sell it to an anime magazie (Shojobeat or whatever) then hope to god that readers like it so you can grow bigger and get a TV show. (:

The oldest one recorded was at 1907. But, the actual growth is actually duting the 70s when Osamu Tezuka, "The God of manga and anime" made it popular. He was the first to introduced the very popular mecha (giant robot) genre. Not till 1980s when anime was accepted and experience a production boom in Japan.

What material does a professional mangaka use?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hm...while I'm not quite an expert, I do know that you need a lot of different types of pens to ink with(fine, bold, etc.) ; you also need a lot of screentone. Sometimes they have papers with the manga guidelines already on them, so that could be useful. You'll need lots of ink: black, white, and colored(for color pages, of course). A computer can also be very useful when it has the right programs installed in it, not to mention you can go on the internet for research. I also think it would be helpful if you carried a notebook or notepad around with you in case you came up with an idea or a quote or a plot or something...that's everything I can think of on the spot. I'll update if I think of more.

Akira Toriyama made his work Dragon Ball based on martial arts(also characters can use powers like blasting away planets etc). The main character is Son Goku, whos name is based on Sun Woo Kong, a ape character from Chinese novel Jurney to the West...Also Goku can be transformed int the ape...Goku's human for is much based on famous martial artist Bruce Lee, which moves Toriyama perfered...Toriyama also noted that he love 1001 Dalmatian Disney carton, saying that drawing of that cartoon and animation style is great...So for record making any good manga or comic need time research, and reading books, manga's and watching movies...

How many hours do manga artists work?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The manga business is notorious for very long hours, and can commonly result in all nighters for an upcoming deadline. Usually, a standard team (one head mangaka, and around 3 assistants) can completely finish (sketch, ink, tone, add dialogue) about 4 or 5 pages a day, but can work sometimes up to 12 hours to do so.
