Hi, Leith Talbi. Nice work. All of the panels are clear and understandable to me except the bottom-left and bottom-center on page 1. Not sure what's being shown in those two panels. Also, is there more to this? At this point (with 5 pages shown), I don't see how pages 4 and 5 relate to pages 1 and 2. Each of those feels like an incomplete story. I commend you for keeping the panel layouts simple and clear. One more thing: Capitalize your last name on the title page.

I had already seen your work before, with the comic about the girl running. This time, the result is actually pretty solid. The story is easy to understand, the character has a good arc, and the pacing, at least in the first part, works well. The drawing has also improved.That said, my problem is with the last two pages; the training is not very well represented. I would have liked to see two full pages focused on the training, showing her gradual muscle gain. Then, the final page should have been only about her preparing for the match, with the last panel mirroring the splash page, but with her replacing her childhood hero.Of course, you still need to improve your drawings, as everyone does, but overall, this is actually a pretty good story.

It's cute, and I like it. Like the others said, the training montage needs to be improved. There seems to be a missing emotional beat between the gym time and signing the contract. It feels a bit too easy, no? It shows she puts in the hard work to train and immediately gets what she wants, but without facing the rejections and failures along the way. Anyway, I really like this story. I live the same life as this girl every day, and am too afraid to full-send it into becoming a full time artist and leave my shitty cubicle though. Wish I had the courage to abandon it all to chase a dream.

Firstly, it'd help to indicate that it read Right to Left, since the context is that you're an english speaker, making an english comic for other english speakers, we'd naturally read Left to Right unless told otherwise. An anime/manga aesthetic doesn't change that, since there's plenty of comics inspired by such aesthetics too, that read Left to Right.>Page 1
I have no idea what the bottom middle panel is supposed to be... a person jumping the ropes, perhaps?
This page gives an ominious, tense feeling, when I think that wasn't what you were going for.
I assume this page is a moment that comes after her deciding to go pro, whilst she is training, but there is no real indication that's the case, or that she is the one watching the television.>Page 4
The hatching feels sloppy and amateurish in panel 2, and isn't particularly great anywhere in the comic. There's also something about how it's cutting from a past memory (black background) to current time that doesn't feel quite right, like it's too sudden and jarring... maybe some black coming in from the corner of the page and fading to the white would have worked to make it feel smoother?In Panel 6 the hand holding the phone suddenly switches. The forced perspective also feel a little extreme and goofy.>Page 6
In panels 2,3, and 4, she goes from having open eyes, to shut eyes, to open eyes again. Maybe I'm just looking for things to be critical, but it just seems oddly redundant? Maybe panel 2 should have been her climbing out of the subway or something similar.Panel 6 just doesn't really look like she's pressed up against glass. You probably needed to add highlights, and circular squishes to the pads of her fingers and hands for it to look right, rather than some random hatching.

felt kinda rushed, 7 pages for the setup and then resolving in 2
