Smack Jeeves
Why it’s Cool:
This is a site for kids who either like to read Manga (Japanese comics) or make their own fanfic (short for fan fiction) — or original webcomics.
Usually the author of any Manga would end up getting published. Any people who are devoted readers of Manga can order the said Manga. All the money goes to the author.
Smack Jeeves is heavily monitored by staff to make sure no inappropriate material is posted. If anyone does post inappropriate material, they are given a fair warning to either change it or, if they refuse, their webcomic will be taken down.
Is it entertaining? Is it educational? Or a little of both?
Smack Jeeves is surely entertaining but I am not 100% sure it’s educational. Once again, this is a great way for artists of all ages to get discovered — just like deviantART, which I talked about in my last article.
Bella’s bio
I’m the type of person who will laugh in the middle of the street because I remembered something funny that happened to me yesterday. I’ve always been the kind of person who loves to make people smile and laugh.
I’m kind of a nerd. I love watching anime and reading manga and I can recognize any voice actor or actress.
I tend to get over protective if my friends are going to get hurt.
I love music. I cannot live without it in my life. My favourite quote about music is: “When words fail music speaks”.
