One thing revealed that my big brother was stealing money from my mothers pocket, he said he was wanting buy canvases and artist material, but this was all a total lie…And my mother was worried that she was going to be broke having 2 sons going to design school, and working in a field that didn’t necessarily guarantee a high yielding salary.
The high school she insisted I attend was Osaka public school, so I guess she was calculating that tuition there would be dirt cheap…

Although I still retained my position as the top grader in the class I was indifferent about a high school which has a good reputation in our region.

Because the student in those schools are aiming to get to the best university in Japan, and that’s all! I didn’t see it as being good for my future as a pro manga artist/ author!

why couldn’t I go my own way into becoming a pro?

–It’s not my fault, its my mothers!- I was thinking to myself…

I didn’t see that I really needed my mother ,who I just saw as trying to take everything away from me that made me happy and was important to me.

She wasn’t aiding me in anything I wanted to do!

I know though there are so many single mothers out there who are striving to survive in this tough old world with kids, so… cheer up! ^^
