| i'm curious! which manga is your favorite in terms of art? i find that even if a story isn't super compelling i can keep reading if the art is really good, or that fantastic art makes an already well-written story stand out more. some of my favorite mangas in terms of art are jibaku shounen hanako-kun, tongari boushi no atelier, totsukuni no shoujo, shimanami tasogare & ran to haiiro no sekai~ |

Ranzzoo said: Hmmm... I really like Asano Inio art's, from the manga he did, i think the one with the best art is Oyasumi Punpun, i really love his style ooh man, i forgot how much i like asano inio's stuff too. oyasumi punpun was crazy good, though i personally like solanin a tad more Qashi-Dema said: Damn thats hard, between Vagabond and Berserk I would choose Vagabond, it just has a bit more detail and I find it more aesthetically pleasing but both manga are pieces of art by themselves i haven't read either of those! googled up some of the panels and the attention to detail is amazing.. i'll definitely find time to read them! |

| So you are asking as a package, so the manga itself as a whole or isolated or maybe where the art carries an otherwise subpar story on its back? Because depending on the answer the question can be approached very differently. Some manga has very detailed art, but the panels have awful flow. Some other not particularly great on the technical level, but very expressive. Some has first class artwork, but the story is really lacking. |

| im a simple man so everything by Murata specifically Eyeshield 21 and One Punch Man |

It's more of an artwork with a story then a conventional comic. It relies exclusively on its artwork to tell it's story and every panel is as detailed and realistic as the best parts of anything mentioned so far.    If I should choose something with a written story, then MAYBE Innocent, though then there are a lot around the same level. If I should mention anything where it's lagging behind Berserk for example is maybe composition, however Innocent is more consistent.    |

| Vagabond and Blame without a doubt! Close runner up would Uzumaki. |
 |
| i like nisekoi's art |
   |
| i'm noticing that a lot of you guys seem to be answering manga with a more realistic art style, that's cool! my circle seems to prefer cute/stylized art so this has been eye-opening! keep the recs coming :D |
(/￣ー￣)/‥∵:*:☆*part time human, full time weeaboo★。：：＊☆ |
| Berserk and Vagabond are top tier! |
| Overall technical quality of the art? Vagabond, JoJo, HNK, Blade of the Immortal, Death Note and so on Backgrounds? Yotsubato. Azuma absolutely dominates the art of detailing backgrounds (and I think the character's designs are also pretty stylish) I think it's very important to have good backgrounds, it enhances the immersion and everything feels more real For example (big images on the spoiler tag) |

| one punch man or solo leveling |
  |
| One Punch Man from what I have read. here are some panels: |
Kengan Ashura. The art is incredible. There are so many cool panels. The character designs are cool and epic, the fights clear and stuff. Kengan would not be as good without it's incredible art.   Sun-Ken Rock. The art is great and so is everything else. There are many cool panels and epicness. Boichi is legendary.    |
| Go check out my latest review: https://myanimelist.net/profile/YeeYeeAss/reviews |
| Mmm, Sun-Ken Rock, Gantz, Platinum End, OPM, Solo Leveling, Trinity Wonder, Also Another, the art is nothing outstanding but i like a lot the character designs, last chapters of Shingeki no Kyojin has a pretty good art too. |

| I would say Bleach, Prison School and The Breaker: New Waves (which is Korean). Kubo, the author of Bleach, is famous among some for the "same face syndrome", which is definitely a thing, yet the faces are what I like most in his art. Many of them are actually unique. In particular something I've been thinking aobut is how he draws noses. Take a look at this guy's nose: Honestly, a great looking nose. Other Bleach noses may not be as good. Another character with a nice nose is Zaraki. It has a lot of character, Zaraki's nose. Everytime Zaraki appeared in the final arc I couldn't stop thinking about his nose. Anyway, I like the way Kubo draws characters in general, not just the noses and faces. Some people complain about the lack of backgrounds in Bleach, but the funny thing is that the backgrounds are usually drawn by assistants, it's his choice to leave them out in many scenes. I guess I'm writing about criticism because I used to read threads where people compared the "big three" manga among other things in the past. So regarding Hiramoto, the author of Prison School, when I look at the art in Prison School, and when I look at art from his previous works, the impression I get is that he is an extremely skilled artist. I mean, he seems to have a really good understanding of anatomy and perspective, he knows how to draw characters that are both ugly and attractive. If I were to compare his work to other manga I've read, I would probably rank his art the highest. If I compare with works I haven't read, then I think Vagabond for example seems "better". Anyway, it's just a subjective opinion of mine. For some reason I was really impressed by Prison School back when I read it. The quality of the art was a bit unexpected since it's such a ridiculous series I guess (I watched the anime before reading the manga). Jin-Hwan Park, the artist of The Breaker and The Breaker: New Waves has a really cool style, is what I think. I don't have as much to say about him as the other two, because I read this manhwa much longer ago but well the fight scenes are awesome and the drawing style is really pleasant. I think The Breaker is one of those comics that use a lot of shadows and such (just like many shonen series) to create some sort of hype/ tension/ emotion. With both The Breaker and Bleach, there is a lot of evolution in terms of art. This happens with most series of course, especially longer ones, but I didn't get the same impression with Prison School, like it felt like he was sick (sick in a good way) right from the start. I read some previous works from Hiramoto and the art was awesome there too. About the shadows again, that was a really cool thing with Bleach, especially in the final arc. After looking at some images from The Breaker just now, I had the thought that Jin-Hwan Park draws some really nice ears and hair. Thought I'd add that since I was expressing appreciation for Kubo's noses before. I was really hyped to read Burn the Witch because it's a chance to see more of Kubo's art again but honestly I didn't like it as much as the art in the final parts of Bleach, not sure why. There's a guy with a good nose here too of course but I'm not a fan of the dragons among other things. |
| can dis sig fit |
| While it isn't my favorite the climber has some really impressive art |
 _______I like rocks__  |
| Well I predominately read a lot of shoujo so I feel like a shoujo manga that had really good art was Honey Lemon Soda However, random addition: Who Made Me a Princess is really beautiful in terms of artwork. It's one of the better "shoujo" manhwas out there in terms of artwork. The attention to detail is amazing and so much care is put into costume design and I really appreciate it. |

| Maybe not my number one favorite, but the art in CLAMP works is very appealing to me. Especially in works like xxxHolic where the mangaka uses line shading and stippling instead of screentones. The heavy use of black gives it a kind of dark and sultry vibe that sets the tone for the manga and gives it a unique appeal. |

| Mine is definitely Grand Blue's artist, amazing art and facial expressions. |
  [Violet X Amy] [VioletteloiV X squished_lemon] |
| Either Oyasumi Punpun or Berserk. |
| In terms of manga art my favorite is Yamada Kun 7 Witches. Each panel looks like it took a great deal of effort. When I completed the manga and picked up other series I realize how rushed a lot of work is. |

| Vagabond, Vagabond, Vagabond, and Vagabond. |
| i'm a massive sucker for the backgrounds in kimi wa houkago insomnia |
| For me it's Saike Mata Shitemo, the art style works amazingly for fights. I always have trouble understanding what the heck is going on in most series' fight scenes, but not with Saike. |
  "Truth is always a cruel thing." |
| I really like tkmiz's art on Girls' Last Tour and Shimeji Simulation. There's a fine line between surrealism and realism in those drawings. |
    beep boop bop pow |
| I love the character designs in Miyuki Yamaguchi's works. I'm not certain if I could decide on just one work, though. |
 |
| I think Made in Abyss is absolutely stunning. At first I wasn't fond of the more chibi character designs, but it grew on me, and all of the fantastical encounters are locations are captivating. |
 Even if helping people is easy, asking for help is a hurdle of it's own. Kaoru Gojou |
| I quite like the realism of Oshimi Shuzo's style and the atmosphere he creates without any dialogue. |
| "Never underestimate the stupidity of the average anime fan" |
For me, Slam Dunk. |
the extra skater |
| berserk for sure it really captures the atmosphere and overall tone in the manga also one piece |
