Is there a way to talk to Mangakas?

[Naruto721]

Does anyone know how can I talk to some of the artists? Like Kishimoto Masashi or Nanae Chrono? They're my favorite mangakas! I want to talk to them, is there a way?

(Sorry if this sounds a little weird:p)

well you could go to japan and hunt them down

or

you may be able to send a japanese letter to shonen jump for them to send it to naruto guy i guess

[Naruto721]

Do you think they'll actually do that???:o

I also feel the same! I finished reading Samurai Deeper Kyo and I really want to let Akimine Kamijyo know how influential she is >__<

Maybe the manga translators can help since they have access with the raw manga and can translate contact information from the mangaka...

I think your best bet would be to (learn Japanese,) get a copy of the Japanese manga and then write to the address provided for fanmail. I'm sure I've heard others talk about that...once upon a time.
