I didn't bookmark the site where I found it. But it was a japanese site that had a few of the chapters that came after book11 which were shown in a magazine.

I liked her older style personally. :X

I found two of the newer scanlatoins, but it seems like theres some chapters before that I'm missing, didn't want to read anymore when I reacted "what the heck happened?".

I don't mind her new style. X)

Personally, I liked her old style much better. The new one isn't bad, but I still like the old one more.

I swear Matsushita doesn't know the meaning of the word "consistent". Her characters designs, plot, art style...updating schedule. Nothing's consistent with this woman. There's not even an inkling that this is the same artist, if you compared her new style with the very beginning of the series.
For me, her art style hasn't changed in one way: it's hit or miss. There are some panels that I think are absolutely stunning, but most of the time I'm kinda "meh" or I want to burn my eyes out.
I am glad, however, that she at least doesn't draw Hisoka so damn girly. He finally looks MALE.

I totally agree.
Personally I was hooked by the cover of first book and stay for the story, gods know how much I hate the hiatus in the middle of the best arc >_< I really don't care much about the change: I do prefer the amount of details that her old style had but I like the new one too. It's more simple, more mature.
