The creator of Attack on Titan talked about how ROUGH it is to be a manga artist:

Next month, Attack on Titan will return to the small screen with a new longer episode that will kick off the final installments of the series as Eren Jaeger and his army of Colossal Titans stomp their way over the globe.

"When I first approached publishers, I didn't think I could become a mangaka but I needed to try my luck. I couldn't have resigned myself without being clearly rejected and yet, I didn't have high hopes. I didn't think my work would be appreciated." "The publication of my manga was monthly. For Attack on Titan, I had to turn in my work at the end of the month. I took a week off and then, as each deadline approached, it was three straight weeks of work with only two to three hours of sleep per night."

"Most mangakas suffer from tendonitis, but not me. No doubt thanks to the way I hold my pencil. On the other hand, since I don't lean too much to draw, I suffered from terrible back pain. I use bands to straighten me out."
