    Tells a life of a manga artist/s in good detail!

    This anime series does absolutely open your eyes when it comes to becoming a manga artist and it can be tough alright! Like you're busy day and night to get a chapter done before the week ends. Also it is a lonely job when you have to be writing and drawing without going into the real world. I was shocked after watching bakuman that while researching about manga artists is that they don't get paid a lot which is ridiculous!! I mean they were the creators of that manga series in the first place so they wasted their valuable times on it? It's just so bad man, I couldn't believe it!I

    I'm glad this anime was made for anime fans like myself in order to give lots of credit to the creators of their favourite animes. I do feel bad that I have criticised some animes art style from anime shows, however it's just my own personal opinion folks. I don't ever wish to defame any manga artist out there!I

    If you need a sprinkle of reality in the manga/anime world, watch this anime. It's totally worth your time, it gets your head thinking too!

    Best Anime Ever

    I would love to say that this is my first review here.

    To be honest, i just made my account here in IMDb just to write a review for this awesome show. =)

    Even though this anime was showed last 2010-2013, i just watched it last week . And i love to say that this is my favorite anime of all time.

    For me, Bakuman is better than one piece, naruto and bleach.

    This anime thought me a lot of things. About the world of anime and how to eagerly and determined to fulfill your dreams.

    100 % recommended for all ages!!!

    Metalanguage made Ink

    Beyond the main plot about effort and creativity...

    There is a Master class in different manga's narrative estructures from the perspective of the mangakas and publishers characters, but also in the elaboration and story of the episode itself, where the real authors implement the recipe that they are explaining into what is happening to the characters themselves in that particular episode.

    -- again for the minimum character required -- There is a Master class in different manga's narrative estructures from the perspective of the mangakas and publishers characters, but also in the elaboration and story of the episode itself, where the real authors implement the recipe that they are explaining into what is happening to the characters themselves in that particular episode.

    Awesome anime

    This is one of the best anime I have ever watched! The story is very unique. Its made by the creators of Death Note, and I say they have made another master piece! I watched the first season and the second season, I couldn't stop so I read the manga and finished it! This is an anime about anime, the idea itself bothered me at first so I was not very enthusiastic to watch it, I am so glad I did, just the first episode was enough, you just won't stop watching! It has romance, comedy and its slice of life! The best slice of life anime I have seen. I'd give a 8 for the art, 9 for the story! Also the opening and closing song was very good! I highly recommend this anime to be watched!

    Even though i finished the manga, I'm still excited to watch the third season of this anime! The story follows the lives of Moritaka Mashiro and Akito Takagi as they strive to be manga artists. I would have given this anime a 10/10 but only one problem the plot twists are pretty weak compared to Death Note but despite this it is still amazing! I highly recommend you to watch this, you won't regret this if you are an anime fan! You will learn a lot about manga. I became inspired to draw because of this series, I'm not very good but I won't give up. This anime taught me that I can always improve, even when I think I'm the best, I can still become better. Two thumbs up for this anime!!!

    Underrated anime!!

    At first, not gonna lie but this anime didn't really appeal to me- but I figured I should give it a chance because of all the high ratings and I'm glad I did!! The first season starts off slow, but it gets a lot better trust me!!
