    Congrats, man. You light fires for me, you're a motivation. I'm on the outside looking in, but I think it might be good to decrease the amount of projects so you don't bite off too much and/or burnout. Wish you further good fortune on your manga journey 💪🏾

    Congrats on winning the competition!
    Do you have any tips on how to transition from writing manga/webtoons to visual novels?
    -how to adjust storylines and pacing to handle audience expectations and medium differences?
    -how to find a good balance between how much ideas you communicate with dialogue/pictures and how much you do with prose/music?
    -how to learn prose as someone used to writing only dialogue in general?

    Man . Im not author/mangaka but in my opinion you should be putting your effort into getting more eyes on your work in Japan.
    I think that should be your main focus.
    You will always have Webtoons to come back to, if you don’t enjoy it , or don’t reach the levels you are hoping to reach (which I think you will)
    Who knows maybe one day you can serialize one of your webtoon stories in Japan when more eyes are on your work.
    You are dedicated and clearly an extremely hard worker , and I think you should put your full attention into an opportunity like this

    Do you mind doing a video on how you came up with the story for your manga I have an idea for one but I feel like it's been told before what I mean by that is like in a predictable way but maybe I can put a spin on it is what I mean
