So recently I've been looking into trying out some manga pens for when I draw to see what effect it will have. I was wondering what brand or set would be good for starting out with? I've had a look in store and all that but there is a few different types and sets they come in so yeah I was just hoping some suggestions would make it easier to know what to start out with.

Was just curious to the effect they would have on style and look etc.

Ive been using fineliners for a while, thought I would try to change it up a bit or something :)

You could google 漫画ペン（manga pen) for a better idea and look at the pictures etc.

Honestly though your drawing skill/knowledge is much more important than the tool; however, fine draftsmanship is something you should strive for. Drawing nice lines is very important for Japanese-style comic medium (manga/anime).
