In Comic, readers can recognize nuance of character voice from speech balloon shape, which expresses characters' nuance, emotion and intention. We have developed speech balloon database from various genres of Comic magazines and analyzed speech balloon data used in character conversation expressions. We classified speech balloon types and analyzed serif descriptions using tfidf method.
