Artstyle using photographs instead of drawings?

I was curious if anyone knew of any manga that use photographs instead of actually drawing. I know that sometimes photographs are used such as in punpun to enrich detail, or sometimes rarely in anime. But I was wondering if there were any purposefully bad or comedy manga that use photography in a manga format?

I mean a lot of anime is copied from real-world location. I'm pretty sure Flowers of Evil uses realism for backgrounds in the anime adaptation at times

Look into Kengo Hanazawa's manga for more of the same for what you're describing

@AzafuseKingTora Interesting, thanks. It seems like he used a bunch of different techniques such as including photography, painting, drawing etc; it would be interesting if there was someone who only used non-heavily edited photographs to make a work, but then it wouldn't really be a manga maybe.

Hiroya Oku uses photography to varying degrees. Sometimes it just looks like he's stuck an art filter over a picture, but other times it looks quite dynamic. Panpanya has also used photography in their work. They blend photography and art quite well in Guyabano Holiday.

Kind of Inio Asano? He takes pictures of real places and stuff to help his background

I don't bother with photograph references. I draw completely from imagination.

it's a hit for me, cause i'm not too keen on foreign language vlog videos. it makes it easier to compare world building in anime and see the changes / similarities as time goes on.
