[...] Additionally to this ITCH publishing, the creators of the brilliant Leek and Sushi anthology are again running their Leek and Sushi anthology for this year’s Manga Jiman. So when submitting your entry to the Japanese Embassy make sure you submit it to ITCH Publishing as well who will then compile your work into their anthology. There’s a full explanation over at their site, which you can visit by clicking here. [...]

Well, the theme seems pretty interesting, so I thought I could draw a shortie just for practice (A break from Freak Fusion would be nice~). I’ll see if I can come up with something then~! X3

Hi Kaiki,

Yes, I suppose you can. I asked the artists to resize their pages last year, but since you’re not taking part in the competition (but you’re still drawing an entry? That’s awesome!) you can make it to fit A5.

While we’re talking size, you should leave about 5mm bleed if you can and remember to keep text and important visual details away from the edge (cut) to prevent them being cut off. I’d suggest keeping lettering away from the edge by about 1 cm to be on the safe side.

Hey Willie =]

If I manage to come up with a story that fits the requirements of Manga Jiman, I’ll submit it to Leek & Sushi, since I’m not a UK resident. However, their size requirement is A4, but Leek & Sushi is published in A5, so can’t I just submit to you in A5?

Thanks~
