Very shameless indeed.<\/p>\n<p>I have been wanting to do this for the longest time but it&#8217;s only this afternoon that I actually managed to add some of my favorite mangakas over twitter. I was hesitant at first and added only those that I really really liked. And while I liked them, I realized I started to stalk their lives a little more. The way that Est Em has been wandering around Europe has been inspiring me to travel and Tagro&#8217;s crazy antics just&#8230; really proves to me on how perverted he can get.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, it&#8217;s an interesting glimpse on their minds and if you want to keep up on their projects, it&#8217;s nice to see whether they&#8217;re wasting their time or hasn&#8217;t seen a ray of sunshine. Sometimes, they like to post about their food and it makes me incredibly hungry. Especially Tagro. I honestly read a little of HenZemi, but I like looking at his food posts.<\/p>\n<p>I got the list online from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tanbishugi.com\/blog\/resources\/mangaka-and-publishers-on-twitter\/\">Tanbishugi<\/a> and am following the following mangakas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@zi38 &#8211; Miwa Shirow<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@TAGRO &#8211; Tagro<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@hikakom &#8211; Hikaru Nakamura<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@wakasugi_k &#8211; Wakasugi Kiminori<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@est_em &#8211; Est Em<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@enneono &#8211; Natsume Ono<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@okamarble &#8211; Okama<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@korinntonn &#8211; Ueda Rinko<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@beef_or_beef &#8211; Yamashita Tomoko<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@Takashigee &#8211; Shigeyoshi Takagi<\/li>\n<li class=\"pointerlist\">@levizo &#8211; Aoi Levin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Naturally most of their tweets will be in Japanese, but for those who can read, it&#8217;d be quite interesting to see the lives and preoccupations of your favorite mangas.
