By the way sorry if I ask too many questions

I notice there are books to teach you how to learn to draw the characters.
Yes, they are very easy to obtain. Personally I find Waterstones the best place in the UK to get manga (highstreet wise), there's so many of the stores and they carry a wide selection. If you go to the cities especially there could be two/three Waterstones in a small area, and strangely each oine would stock a different selection of manga, lol. On the highstreet for anime I would say try HMV, they seem to stock quite a few both obscure and popular, but they cost quite a bit, a little more than I'm willing to pay.

I would recomend searching on amazon.co.uk and amazon.com if you are able - both are extremely cheap and have a huge selection for you to choose from, it's where I go for all my anime/manga

Also there's no need to apologise about asking too many questions, lol, it's how we learn after all. I hope you get all the answers you need. That said I'm sorry I can only answer a few this time, but I'm unsure of all the answers, so better informed members will perhaps be more qualified to answer you.

And yes, there are books on how to draw manga - I have an excellent one called 'Draw Great Manga' by I think 'Elvin and Felder'. I recieved it for a birthday gift one year but it's very detailed and interesting. It's just for manga/anime style art though, but there are sites/books to teach you how to draw specific characters, and they have tutorials on this on Youtube too.
