1. First thing first of course, you will need some paper (no surprises there) but not those A4 Reflex printing paper. I will suggest you buy a Visual Diary such as the one below because it has good quality, it is thick (which ensures that you did not trace the manga/anime) and of course you do not need to buy a folder to put your work in as it is a binder book already (so that you won't loose your hard work). But this is completely up to you as the price of an A4 Visual Diary may be a bit expensive.
2. The next most important piece of equipment is the Pencil/Mechanical Pencil with the 2B lead. It is not essential but it is good to have a set of pencils ranging from H~6B for better shading.
