Hiya!
My name is Juno, but you can call me Manta, as most people know me! I'm an 18-year-old... artist(?) from Manitoba, Canada. I also consider myself to be a shitposter, enby, and occasionally, a speedrunner (in no particular order.) You're probably here because you've come across one of my many creative endeavours/projects. In which case, my condolences, and thank you for showing interest in my works! I think you'll come to find my creations on these here interwebs quite interesting, and my font choices questionable. Some major interests of mine include pencil art (a hobby of mine for about 14 years now), performance art and cabaret (a less prominent hobby but something I still greatly appreciate), flowers and plants (I've been growing a garden since summer, 2023 and would often tend to my grandmother's garden during my childhood), paleontology (I fucking love the life on this planet in its various forms, it's beautiful), astronomy (another long-running interest of mine, I love the abstract beauty of the vast world in which we live), certain video games (notably Kirby's Epic Yarn, Yoshi's Woolly World, the Paper Mario series, and the Mother series, among others), psychedelic rock and disco (two genres I grew up listening to and still love to this day)! I also love talking to people and learning about them so feel free to contact me on any of my linked accounts. :3
So, what does "MantaPlant" mean?
Well, the manta part of my name comes from the love of manta rays and sting rays that I developed when I went to Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto back in the spring of 2017. I instantly fell in love with the little creatures, but unfortunately I couldn't reach them due to being far too short. I was always short for my age. I consider it a lost childhood dream to pet a manta ray. Fast forward to January, 2020, shortly before I began posting my creations on the internet. At the time, my YouTube account was called "Manta Ray 99," a username that I had already begun to grow out of. I was looking for something catchier. At the time, my profile picture was a piranha plant, so the name came very naturally. Hope you enjoyed my lengthy and overly elaborate explanation. :d

Manter Rau
Manter Rau is a proud resident of Prince Edward Island. He has sworn to destroy Manta for unclear reasons and claims that everything he doesn’t like is evil. He is often seen wearing a yellow shirt and a watermelon pin. He once stole a child’s entire lemonade stand because he viewed it as a competing business, and has sworn revenge on Dole because he threw up once after eating 12 bananas in a row. Rau has many disciples, and CAN and WILL win any argument, even if you have no idea what he’s talking about.
Marro
Marro is a disgruntled Italian man with anger issues who entered the real world through Manta’s Windows 7 computer. He told Manta to create a Discord server on May 12, 2020 under the name “The Salt Garden.” Marro’s spirit resides within The Salt Garden to this day, and inspires hatred and toxicity in whoever uses the server.
Philbert
Philbert is an anthropomorphic polar bear that often serves as Manta’s mascot. Philbert spends his days collecting shiny objects and travelling the world on foot. He once collided with a subway, which as you might imagine, resulted in the subway bursting into flames. (Aftermath of the event pictured above.) He often walks upright on his hind legs with his arms extended, which usually results in him being mistaken for a human.
Quageon
Clueless little creature. Admittedly, Quageon is not Manta’s creation. Quageon appeared to Manta one night in a dream and told them to spread it across the internet. Manta was also threatened with various unspeakable horrors if they were to disobey it.
