Body proportions are good, but, be patient with the hands, they are the most difficult part of the body to draw.
Try to keep the begginings of thatch lines (the lines substituting for shadows) connected to the panel's frame. This makes for a solid feel in each panel.
Similar to what tonberryjames said; try to place a little spacing between your panels (either a deliberate white spacing or just color it black).
Be creative with your paneling since you are doing a manga; this medium allows you a lot of creative freedom. Like the Eva graphic novels - Sadamoto-san made some really nice panels there (many different shapes and sizes). Some can be layered on top of each other.
I don't recommend putting more than 6 panels per page. Be creative with where and how you arrange your panels on everypage. Having a storyboard to plan how you want the story to flow is very helpful when you draw the actual manga (I even use this one on my 3-panel comic strips!).
Well... hope I helped.
