His Imperial Dickprince

Have you ever seen an octopus run before?

From @sciencefriday:

Crawling, swimming, squeezing, jetting—the range of movement available to an octopus is impressive. Yet some species occasionally choose to stand up on two arms and “run” backwards. Chrissy Huffard, a Senior Researcher at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, explains the pros and cons of this seemingly silly behavior and why an octopus might find looking foolish useful.

Learn why here:

The table of contents looks a little like this: Chapter 1 - Introduction on How to Draw Chapter 2 - The ‘Four Fundamental Structures’ of Manga that You’ll Want to Get Down Chapter 3 - How to Make Characters Chapter 4 - How to Make Stories Chapter 5 - Drawings Express Everything Chapter 6 - What is ‘World Building’ in Manga? Chapter 7 - All Elements Tie to a ‘Theme’ Putting it Into Practice Part 1 - Until the Manga is Made Putting it Into Practice Part 2 - How to Draw Short Works

There will of course be some example illustrations 

Araki has always been fond of talking about and teaching the process of making a story so seeing it all condensed into one book will definitely be interesting
