It's not easy to become and live as a mangaka, Mashiro knows that from his late uncle. At his 9th grade, while trying to keep up with reality, school and then normal job, he left his notebook with a sketch of Azuki, a girl he likes. Tamaki, a first rate student found it and trying to convince Mashiro to draw a manga with his story. Mashiro doesn't like the idea and tries to decline. Tamaki, however, tries to stick to dream and found out that Azuki also wants to be a voice actress and already got a good reply from a production company. Tamaki, then, brought Mashiro to her house and telling her his dream.... Mashiro then tells her that he will write a manga with Tamaki and will ask Azuki to voice their anime. Out of confusion, Mashiro asks her if the dreams become reality, will she marry him? She says yes, only if their dreams become true, and not otherwise!! Now, lifes of wannabe mangakas begin!!!

Fairly interesting manga that was written by the same mangaka as Deathnote was. Everyone of the main characters seems to be extremely smart in there own way. It's only on chapter 6 but it's a good one in my book.

You can read it here on OneManga.

New chapter!!! Chapter 7 in now out. ~Reading

Read it!

I think that it was funny to see that Saiko is so bad with talking to girls in a sense of that he doesn't know the consequences of his words

I think that things are going along, though the people there won't take them seriously until they see the stuff though. And maybe a plot twist would be that it isn't good enough and they have to work harder and stuff...

Yea, it would be a lot better if they got shut down quick. I would hate to see this manga end too quick.

I think that if they get to do it there will be some major plot twists. Same mangakas as Death Note = Major plot twists

There is a new chapter. Chapter 8 is now out.


Read it here!

I'll start reading it now. Hope it's like 30 pages.

Chapter Nine is out!

Bakuman Chapter 9!

That was a sweet chapter. And I think that they are seriously gonna get it on now!

Yeah. Now I'm also kind of curious about which Shonen manga Eieji would cancel, because they seem to reference real ones, I saw a Naruto poster hanging in the office in this chapter.

I think that he is going to be able to do it by some odd way and he is going to choose their's since they're gonna be his biggest rivals soon

Tried my hand at a bakuman sig:

That's real good! The render is done by you? And I think that you spelled tribzi wrong

PS: Do you want to post this in the GFX section? The gallery? Because that would be an appropriate place to put it

I just cleaned up the render because it had kanji all over it. And I can't beleive I spelled tribzi wrong and I've been lookin at it all day and didn't notice >< thanks

and yeah ill post it in the GFX section once I fix it.

I feel so stupid ><

Oh. Well good job with the render. And good job again

Thank you

Bakuman is getting really interesting. Had to bump up the rating I had for it on MAL. Tribizi, good work on that sig.

Oh thanks about the sig, and good news... NEW CHAPTER TODAY!

This chapter felt a little strange in that it felt kind of like a narration of a lot of time packed into single chapter, but it was still a pretty good chapter. It was nice to see Shujin defend Mashiro, and things just keep getting better and better.

This manga is turning into an amazing one. It seems to get better and better every episode, it even leaves a little suspense at the end now. I wonder what Mr. Hattori was thinking, last time we saw what he thought but they left us in the dark this time.

I didn't really expect they're entry into the competition to do well, because I thought it was going to be even more of an obstacle to overcome, but at least they got a mention.

Yea, but what was with it? Hattori called and said it didn't advance past 8 but it was mentioned in the magazine. I just wish I know what that guy's thinking.

Well I think that they were saying that he got into the top 8, which is mentioned in the manga, but the ones that were stressed and probably bolded are the ones that were 1st, 2nd, 3rd and honorable mention. They were just printed in smaller text.

I loved it when he punched that guy though. It was the best.

Backuman chapter 11 came out today!
click the pic!


That was a good chapter. The beginning was pretty funny and it definitely makes me think the conflict over Takagi's relationships isn't over. Also, their conference with their editor revealed some nice stuff, and took some pressure off Mashiro's chest, though their still just as motivated. This time by getting serialized.

Great chapter the guy coming in at the end will have a big impact in the story overall I think. For some reason I think that 1 score came from their office to hold them back too.

Yeah, big scary boss editor will play his part in the story. It seems like he'll be the character who supports mangakas who strive for their goals and make the best manga they can without dropping their own style. Or so I think.

I think that also shows that the guy that's helping them really doesn't know EXACTLY what he's doing so he's a little unpopular.

The little spat in the beginning was a good little bit of humor before it got super serious
