// 04 — ABOUT KANA YAMASAKI

I found a clearer
road to manga.

I’m Kana Yamasaki, a Japanese manga creator and content creator. For years, I struggled to find a clear direction for my manga career. Last year, I developed my own method and began following it step by step.

Since then, one of my one-shots has been published in a Japanese manga magazine. I’m now working with editors at two Japanese publishers toward publication by the end of the year—and sharing the real process openly on social media.

Your Mangaka Roadmap turns the practical routes and industry context I learned firsthand into a personalized strategy for international creators.

CREATOR REVIEW 01

“I highly recommend Your Mangaka Roadmap! Kana is incredibly professional, kind, and supportive. Her feedback was detailed, constructive, and genuinely helpful. She helped me improve my storyboard, better understand my strengths and the areas I could improve, and most importantly, gain confidence in myself. The roadmap is very comprehensive, with personalized advice, useful resources, and clear guidance on how to approach the Japanese manga industry. I’m truly grateful for her encouragement and all the valuable advice she shared with me!”
