Hiromu Arakawa Quote

Truth is stranger than fiction, as the old saying goes. When I watch a documentary, I can't help crying and then I think to myself, Fiction can't compete with this.But when I mentioned this to a veteran manga artist friend of mine he said that fiction brings salvation to characters in stories that would otherwise have no salvation at all. His words strengthened the conviction of my manga spirit.
