How should I learn to draw manga?
I draw manga only one way, and that is by copying certain pictures, not tracing but just copying. That is how I draw. I want to know if that is the right way to draw. I am drawing the styles of Naruto, Full Metal, The Wirld God Only Knows, etc. but how else can I learn? I can't take any classes or buy any books for drawing by the way. I simply don't have any money and my parents wouldn't pay for it.
Drawings of mine that I have copied:

Seen, get a library card, there's a ton of manga books at the libraries.

You have an internet connection, start googling manga tutorials, there's over 200 of them online.

Start drawing from photographs, don't try to reproduce the image use the Manga styling's you've already learned and see what you come up with. That will let you develop a style of your own and open the way to creating your own characters.

Drawing has no bounds, the best you can do in drawing is being yourself... I used to have drawing classes where they gave you topics to draw from... I couldn't express myself, but when I drew my ideas, they were miles better...

Use tutorials to improve accuracy, but never forget to express yourself, that's what matters in the art of drawing...
