We have 3 sister schools that are located in Tokyo and Fukuoka, Japan and we have finally opened a new branch here in Malaysia! NDS has a history of about 60 years and has produced many creators in a variety of fields, including illustrators, manga artists, designers, and photographers. NDS is well known in Japan as an art school that teaches the latest knowledge used in the Japanese art industry, now we wanted to bring that knowledge to Malaysia. These lessons are applied to the artworks of the students.
