became a cartoonist
If you have a certain understanding of Japanese culture, or if you often watch Japanese comics, you will find such a phenomenon. That is, the Japanese love to draw, and many people regard it as their dream to become a manga artist. Especially in Japan itself, being a manga artist is a good job.
Even if they don't end up being a cartoonist, there are other things they can do with the art of drawing. This can be seen from many of their animations. For example, the male protagonist of "The Garden of Words" intends to become a shoemaker; and the male protagonist in "Your Name" found the female protagonist's hometown by painting; and The male protagonist in "Only My Street" has become a real cartoonist.
If you often watch Japanese manga, you will have the illusion that the average Japanese painting level is higher. In fact, because many of them are very fond of the art of painting, coupled with the fact that there are many painting classes offered by schools in , this is entirely possible.

The motivation for this persistence was the love of painting and animation.So the question is, becomes a painter inevitably has a growth process of imitating other people's painting styles. How many painting styles should learn in this process to be considered qualified?

Once there are too many characters in the same anime, the test is the personal ability of the artist. At this time,
will have different styles of painting. If there are different styles of painting, it will not appear in thousands of people. Otherwise, there will be the problem of low recognition of different characters, especially The supporting roles themselves may be carved out of the same mold, and coupled with the small number of scenes, it is difficult to distinguish them if there is no style to distinguish them.
