| Suppose, You are a great artist, who wants to publish manga. Shounen Jump editorials are wowed by your art capabilities. They hooked you up with a contract which ensure you that you will have your own manga and that will 100% get an anime adaptation. But... your art style need to be more refined. So, SJ wants you to study under a famous mangaka. Now question? Which mangaka will you pick as your mentor? My answer is this man : Naoki Urasawa |

| Satoshi Kon, of course. I know how I would have a chance to talk to him... |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Kafka, Fu Xuan, Jingliu, Topaz and Huohuo. |
Syun Matsuena, the author of Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple. The series holds a special place in my heart and I really like his art style (especially when it comes to drawing female characters). |
| Kubo. I love his style, and hate drawing backgrounds. |
| 馬鹿げた倫理 全部ガラクタで |
| Nizuma Eiji, that guy is basically overpowered |
 |
| I would choose either Akira Toriyama or Tite Kubo. Both of them are phenomenal manga artist. |
 |
| Definitely Hirohiko Araki and Hajime Isayama |
 |
| I am an amateur manga-ka and my mentor is Arina Tanemura lol |
  |
| Graphics wise and short term story I'm gonna pick Aoyama Gosho, for long ter story Hajime Isayama, I'm gonna kill all character |
k, imma gonna disappear |
| Kentaro Miura, if I were to ever be a writer/mangaka I would most probably write a dark fantasy and there's no better example of that than berserk. |
| Takeshi Obata, this man's art is damn beautiful. |
| Tite Kubo, great manga artist and character designer! |
| hajime isayama. there can be none other. |
 |
| either Ikeda Akihisa (Rosario Vampire) or the one and only Yabuki Kentaro, these guys know how to draw |
    |
| Here’s my good picks, -Ai Yazawa -Gen Urobuchi |
| I think it would be cool to study under Yoshikazu Yasuhiko. He worked on Gundam. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| Damn, this is a hard question, there are way too many to choose. I would say: Hirohiko Araki Naoki Urasawa Inoue Takehiko Tite Kubo Takeshi Obata Kentaro Miura Eiichiro Oda Sui Ishida Yuusuke Murata Makoto Yukimura And there are definitely other incredible mangaka out there as well! |

| Taiyou Matsumoto (Ping-Pong, Tekkon Kinkreet, Sunny) and Hitoshi Iwaaki (Parasyte, Historie) |
 |
| Oda. Making the best selling manga in history doesn't just come from pure luck |
 |
| Hirohiko Araki, can't think of anyone better |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
cravemoreanime said: I'm surprised that nobody has said Eiichiro Oda! Seems like Kubo is geeting more disciples then him... |
| Hirohiko Araki (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) or Aya Azuma (various Touhou Project manga, most notably Wild and Horned Hermit.) I'd be tempted to say ZUN for how great his manga are, but since this is about refining my art I couldn't really say ZUN. He's certainly gotten better at drawing over the years, but ZUN's strength is definitely in writing over art... |
My greatest contribution to this website:  |
| Hiro Mashima, his writing skills may leave something to be desired but he has an amazing work ethic. It'd be interesting to learn from him. |
| As much of a fan I am of Urasawa Naoki, I'd probably pick Eiichiro Oda. I don't see myself ever writing a genuinely serious manga like 20th Century Boys, I would absolutely try to be more light and insert comedy, and Oda seems to be one of the better picks for inserting comedy into a series that isn't solely about comedy. Also, Kaitani Shinobu. Like I said I wouldn't make a completely self-serious manga, however I wanna know how the fuck someone would write something like Liar's Game. Understanding a complex game is one thing, it's another to actually create a complex game without stumbling and making it feel contrived, so I'd really like to know how the fuck he does it. |
 |
| I would love to have ito junji as my mentor, i would love to make some scary and gory stuff |
| Inio Asano from Oyasumi Punpun/Solanin. I like so much every frame from your works |
 |
| I would have to choose between Naoki Urasawa and Kiyohiko Azuma. Both primarily for their supremely intricate backgrounds and ability to create a veritable kaleidoscope of unique characters. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| if art only I would go for Takehiko inoue for sure |
| just keep it simple |
| I’d go with Oh! Great since his drawings are good, but his stories are so and so |

Quite interesting to see all of then as panel after panel Yeah, I just felt like being extra since I find all of these mangakas to be incredible, I absolutely love the art that these mangakas have produced as well! |

| Kentaro Miura, so I can learn how to be the ultimate Idol Master. |
| Borunson (Fist of the North Star - Art), because I love the badass art. |
| Hmm,if it is only to improve your art style then it'll be either Ishida, Sui-Tokyo ghoul(only if I'm making a seinen my favorite art style so far) Horikoshi, Kouhei-My hero academia or Matsumoto, Naoya-Kaiju no 8(If I'm making a shounen) |
