Description
Sorry for all the grammatical errors, I'm not really very good in the English grammar!!!Thank you a lot to for helping me to fix the grammar!!!
When I start this, I was so afraid of what could happen if I ost it, but I'm happy of doing right now!
Before someone say something like: WHO ARE YOU TO TELL HOW MAKE OCs?!?!?! Well, I not order you to read or follow what it says, I did this Tutorial for everybody that would like read it or for those new artists that doesn't know how start their stories and everything! Because today we seen so many gallery of people full of talent but that only does always bishonens or pretty girls (or boys that look like pretty girls), that doesn't risk to try new styles or ideas for fear of what other people could say!
So, if I insulted someone with this tutorial, I apologize and not take it personal because this is my opinion only!
Thank you a lot for your times guys! and thanks Frau for the advices!
ALRIGHT! I JUS CAN'T DO IT!! So, I will say it here! THANK YOU A LOT FOR ALL THE FAVS AT THIS TUTORIAL! You are totally awesome for it!!!

I've always gotten a kick out of the fact that in the "anime world" it seems like main characters can only exist between the ages of 12 to 19.

(Oh God, your grammar....)
I love all of my characters in my story, as I feel that each one reflects a piece of my personality. But I do worry constantly if they are stereotypical or fit the Mary Sue/Gary Stu frame; your tutorial actually made me feel better about my characters' originality and what makes them unique. Thanks!

I think it has more to do with the author being from another country. If this was someone from America or another English-speaking country, I would have added a critical note to my comment, but since he is from a country where English is not the native language, I must hold my tongue and be kinder. It's a very helpful tutorial, but slightly difficult to read on account of the grammar, at least in my opinion.

You've done a good job in outlining the stereotypes of the manga style, which I think are overused today as an easy excuse to cover up lack of inspiration... (You forgot to mention to stop giving Japanese names, btw
Thanks for having this yell, however in your tutorial I've got the feeling you're more or less trying to force the reader into a normal real world this-is-how-it-is-meant-to-be sort of stereotype, which I feel defeats the purpose a wee bit.
That's just my opinion, I guess I was expecting a wider scope concerning character personalities and backgrounds. I personally wouldn't have any problem with a 10yr old with the fate of the world in his hands as long as everything remains consistent with the reality of the world he lives in. Or something completely unreal in the real world, just for the sake of craziness. 8)

thank you! well, about the japanish name, I would just have say something more like "there are more names than yuki, sakura and ryu" hehehe!
I'm not forcing no one, this is just a lil help to start in this sort of stuff, everybody chose their ways with the time, I like you told me your opinion btw!

Your English is better than most born and raised in America.
I use slang constantly, but when I need to speak properly I will.

although you english confused me a bit at some parts, this tutorial is quite helpful. it's hard telling people what to do in order to not create mary-sues, but your general tips are spot-on, in my opinion.
