American artists in comics tend to get better over the years but manga the other way around imo.

Why are you like this? I can't think of a more deranged person on this entire board than you.

The last two are pure slop. Nu-cape >There's one big panel with no paneling or choreography where my cape uhh looks cool. No plot. Just my character looks cool. Yes, it's pricey because of the colors. Plz buy.
It's approaching Webtoon territory of bad. If not already there.

>>287503791Actually, both panels are from the same chapter. It's just that the bottom part of the pages is set in the past, and the mangaka is imitating his art style from 20 years ago

That's less "detoriation" and more "looks off because you're so used to the newer designs".

If OP weren't a deranged retard making threads out of spite, he might understand this. I mean, there are plenty of valid criticisms you can make about Oda, but complaining how his art is “getting worse” is the most stupid and petty criticism you could possibly level at him. The guy has been dropping weekly chapters since 1997, when others like Kubo or Toriyama would have preferred to kill themselves rather than keep working on a weekly manga, when they had less than half the chapters Oda has under his belt. Don’t get me wrong, 500–600 weekly chapters is quite an impressive feat, it’s just that braindead morons like don’t realize how hard it is to keep doing this shit for so long.
I personally don't think Oda has become a worse artist; I'd even say his artstyle has improved, but I understand those who prefer his artstyle from the early arcs. The passing of years and decades has obviously taken its toll on the weekly chapters, which is quite natural. I think that if One Piece were a monthly manga, we’d have chapters of equal or even better quality than those from 700–800 chapters ago.

>Nu-cape
As if that's not been the meta of hack artists since like, '89? Liefeld spent his entire time at Image doing that- specifically group shoots of characters saying their names in a big font- and it wasn't even fresh then.

What a stupid cocksucking post
I love One Piece, I've watched it since it aired on German TV when I was a kid, I read the manga front to back like 3 times, and I can safely say with no cope that Oda's art has deteriorated as fuck
All you need is the Akainu comparison image to prove you wrong

>I love One Piece
>that’s why I seethe with rage when people rightfully criticize the anime, because that means that person has a minimal appreciation for the original work
>that’s why I seethe with rage when someone gives even the slightest credit to the guy who’s kept it afloat for almost 30 years
You sure love it, lol. What a miserable, deranged faggot you are.

>>287507765
i think his composition has gotten worse, which in turn has made his art worse. he draws "more" in the sense of cluttering the pages and compromising the quality of each panel, but when it comes to cover spreads his art doesn't seem as bad as people make it out to be
>>
>>
>>287507463
It's because they were making tons of money selling the original art for their pages and big pin ups and splash pages sold the best so they just started making whole books of nothing but that. Read like shit but no one bought a Liefeld book for the writing.

The weekly chapters are clearly drawn in a more rushed manner, resulting in a more scribbled artwork and a greater sense of clutter. You could say the manga looks worse now, which is valid, but I think it’s more a result of a weekly manga running for too long than Oda becoming a worse artist. The way his character designs have evolved is proof of that.

>>287502010
unless it's the artists unique property, american comic artists tend to get rotated out, sometimes on a monthly basis. so they're always doing new projects and refining their range of technique but also always having to get their bearings

Wait...You're implying you buy those things unironically, e.g. "for the "art""? Lmao. Disgusting. That's the reason comics suck so much. I'd understand Murataslop over this.

Yes, I actually do love One Piece. Which is why I criticize things about it that aren't good. Because someone who loves something wants it to be the best version of itself. You're a fair weather faggot without a critical bone in his body, "lol". You're the lowest rung of jap media consumer. "I'd even say his artstyle has improved." What an absolutely retarded, coping post. If I asked you to provide examples you'd probably close the thread in shame and pretend it doesn't exist instead of providing any.

Oda's artstyle seems very lenient for managing to keep the series weekly for so long. I'm not an artist so I don't know if this is true or not but I figure you can probably draw faster when you don't have to worry about trying to do perfect anatomy

There is counter-exemples. Go Nagai art improved along the decades. He has perfected his style. He his old as fucks and has never stopped, in fact it's like aging only made him more powerful than ever.
