The Manga University Home Study Course is designed for students of all ages and skill levels who want to get better at drawing manga. This six-week class is done on an individual basis, and can be taken any time, anywhere. Best of all, it's only $49.99!

The course includes:
  • A 512mb USB stick loaded with 6 fun, easy-to-follow weekly manga drawing lessons
  • 1 Tachikawa all-in-one manga pen with three ink cartridges
  • 1 I-C brand professional artist's sketchbook
  • 1 Limited edition Manga University sticker
  • 1 personalized critique and re-drawing of your artwork by one of Manga University's professional Japanese manga artists
  • 1 Manga University Diploma (sent via email as a high-resolution JPEG suitable for printing and framing)
Once a week for six weeks, students will complete a multipage, printable PDF featuring a lesson plan developed by Manga University instructors to teach the basics of manga drawing techniques and character design.

Our teaching staff includes award-winning artists Chihiro Hattori (Kanji de Manga, the Manga Cookbook), Atsuhisa Okura (Moe USA, WIRED Magazine), Yu Sakurai and Koda Tadashi (MU How to Draw Tutorials). Each artist works in a variety of manga styles, and enjoy working with aspiring artists of all ages and skill levels.

Students must have the following to participate in this course:
  • A computer with a USB port
  • An email account
  • The ability to scan and send their images to us via email
  • A desire to draw manga and have fun!
We will send you all of your course materials as soon as you pay the enrollment fee. Please note that the Home Study Course enrollment fee is nonrefundable. Also, the course is designed for students who have never taken a Manga University course before. If you were enrolled in one of our previous courses, and wish to continue your studies with us, please contact us for advanced-learning opportunities.

We look forward to having you as a student!




The Manga University Art Critique is the ideal choice for anyone who wants to have their manga illustration looked at and critiqued by a professional artist at Manga University. Not only that, but students who have taken the Home Study Course will get a $10 rebate on every critique!

After payment has been confirmed you will recieve an e-mail with instructions on how to submit your artwork. Your critique will be completed within 5-7 business days from the date of receiving the artwork. If you have taken the Home Study Course before, please sign up for the Art Critique using the same name, and we will refund you $10 after payment has been confirmed.
