My genius hour was learning how to create a manga and overall it was an amazing and challenging experience. My favorite part about choosing my topic was learning how characters are created from blood types and eastern and western zodiac. I did create some characters from the blood types such as blood type O where the character is positive, confident, and unpredictable. There wasn't really much that I wasn't fond of but I'd probably have to say that I didn't really enjoy learning all the blood types. I mean I did like them but not all them were that interesting. The one thing I enjoyed very much about my genius hour was creating the characters. It was a challenge but it was pretty fun creating them overall a few characters went through many changes because I thought they may have been a bit too generic. The one thing I didn't enjoy very much about genius hour was paneling and planning out the story. It was fun at first but soon became time consuming it took a ton of effort. Paneling was a pain because it shows whats going on and brings out the highlight in your manga. So it was a challenge choosing the size of the panel and choosing it where I want it to be. One thing I did learn about myself was that I am a bit of a procrastinator. There were times where I was motivated and other I wasn't so much. I did tons of research but creating the manga is what kind of made me procrastinate because of all the effort it took. In all creating a manga was a fun and challenging experience it was nice to know what kind of effort and skills it took to make one.
