More of a demonstration than instructionalAug 25, 2006
By Stephen Dangelo
"stevegallery"
This book shows how various artists created specific artworks, rather than actually teaching you how to create manga yourself. It shows a series of pictures which show the development of about 40 individual artworks, from pencil stage to complete full-color. Next to each picture it says things like "now draw the items in the background" or "now fill in the highlights and shadows", without actually teaching you HOW to do these things.
I think a much better book is "How To Draw Manga Volume 20: Female Characters". This book breaks down how to actually draw attractive female characters.

 I'm satisfied!Feb 17, 2007
By N. Minter
"Sinderala"
The "How to Draw Manga" and similar books aren't good refrences for learning how to actually draw things in the first place (the best method is to study life, human models, etc), but they're good for getting a person in the mood to draw and just seeing how other people do things since that's also important in finding your own style. So, I usually treat them like art books instead of guides/textbooks.
That being said, I thought this book was fun and was glad to add it to my library. The insight other artist's have is always fun to read. I kind of wish there were more erotic mangaka presented, aside from the original author. It's also tasteful and I found it a pleasant surprise to see attractive males depicted as well. It would be nice to see it expanded upon in a small series or another artist try their hand at creating one to see how it turns out.
It's the only manga "instructonal" book I've paid for. :)

 Okay, but a heads up...Oct 22, 2009
By Kevin R. Shadowfire
"KRS"
Okay, so this book is great if you want a fairly in-depth book on drawing mostly nude (Breasts only, mind you) females in some erotic poses. I'll also admit that it's well done for what it is, but there are only like 4 males in the entire book. It really, as far as 'Erotic" is concerned, is referring only to the poses and breasts of the females in the book, otherwise, it's pg.
This is intended as a sort of... know what your buying before you buy it, type of review. I personally found it relatively misleading by the title, something I'll admit I'm not used to with art books, as they tend to be quite straight forward in that respect. I would re-title it to "Provocative Manga: Draw Like the Experts" Not quite erotic, in the expected sense. Otherwise, it seems to be a fine book.

 sucksFeb 28, 2010
By nate
I was expecting a step by step lesson on how to draw. What this book shows is only elements of what is attractive in manga (ie; "sexy maid costumes are sexy. draw a girl in a maid uniform." -- Oh yeah? HOW?) They only give instruction on WHAT to do not HOW to do it! The "How to Draw Manga 21" is so much better. http://www.amazon.com/How-Draw-Manga-21-Bishoujo/dp/4766111486/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I1Z3NFPYIP3FMW&colid=1UMMXM1Y5AMO8
This book is dumb.

Drawing experience requiredMar 10, 2008
By Carlos Montenegro
This book is isn't really that useful since the authors think that you already know how to draw people and have certain experience using photoshop or painter of which ever program they used to color the illustrations. The illustrations are quite good too but these are merely demonstrations.
If you want to draw erotic manga, buy one of those how to draw female manga characters books for the basics of drawing the female figure.
