They're chibis!Excruciatingly cute, highly stylized, and beloved in all manga genres (fantasy, magical girls, shounen, anthro, sci-fi-, and more), without them, manga would barely exist.

"My 10 year old's favorite gift last Christmas." according to narrowback slacker. This was not the biggest or blingy-est gift under the tree last year, but it turned out to be my daughter's absolute favorite. She worked through it constantly, and we eventually followed up with Hart's more advanced manga technique books. If you have a child who likes to draw and is interested in anime or manga, I can't think of a gift that will get more use.. Good reference, but no faces? J. M. Bistodeau This book is a good reference for starting down the road to manga drawing, with lots of big pictures and diagrams. The one thing lacking from this book is a really good facial-expressions chart. The author touches on it, and there is a section where they show how to "chibify" any manga character, which is helpful. Even more helpful would have been the inclusion of the facial express. A Good Choice I got this for my granddaughter's birthday when she turned 13. She said she liked it. She's had it for 3 months now and she uses it. I was happy to find this art book for her. It's just like they said in the description, it's for beginners. She loves drawing girls with large eyes.
