I did not expect that "this comic is amazing!", I will be interested in comics other than Japan. I also know American cheeks, but the pattern like a movie is difficult to stick ... .... That is why Taiwanese manga, which is close to Japan, was fresh.

Hello,Takuya Sudo @ circle around the world bicycle @ Charridermanis.
