Do tell. I remember seeing a Tanemura wall that Ashley posted and was surprised that the main male character WASN'T Takuto or Sindbad or whatever. That said I do like Tanemura's style even for all its sugary cutesyness (and angst where appropriate) but I'd have to say I like Obata slightly better.Nate (post: 1287429) wrote:"Oh, it's Mitsuki and Takuto again."

Every time I see a manga by Arina Tanemura I'm always like, "Oh, it's Mitsuki and Takuto again." I like her style, but I don't know if I can call it good, since it's always the same.

It's the same with Yuu Watase... bleh. I think I've read one story from her that I really liked, which was Imadoki! (5 volumes, standard school drama but really likeable). It was the first Watase manga I read, so when I went to read my cousin's Alice 19th, I was like "Hey, everybody looks the same... T_T" I do generally like her art though, except her characters' profiles tend to look wonky. o_o
Oh, and can't forget Yasuhiro Nightow! I mean, Trigun, and BEYOND THE GRAVE! *huggles Grave* wahhhhhh~

Arina Tanemura.
Full Moon wo Sagashite.
I loooovveeee her art! She's probably one of my favorite shojo manga-ka, and I'm never dissapointed with her art or storytelling.
But, I agree with what other members have said, her characters look too similar sometimes...well, okay, they look to similar all the time...but it's still very attractive art.
Masashi Kishimoto.
Naruto.
I mean, come on, his art is fantastic. It's fresh and he always puts feeling into his characters.
Dislike

Oda's style is wacky and weird, but you can't deny that the man knows how to draw manga. His backgrounds are SO detailed and his pages are well laid out, and he's very good with perspective and drawing action. He's also really good with character design.CLAMP.
All of their really early work.
PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!!!!
But I'm not fond of CLAMP's early work. But, I still love their older mangas, so I try not to let it get in the way. Their newer work, however, I love. But the art of their early work like WISH, Cardcaptor Sakura and other I'm not fond of.
Actually I partially agree with you on this one, but I don't like ANYTHING CLAMP does, not just the earlier stuff. XDAkira Toriyama.
Dragon Ball.
Wow, I'm going to be hated for this...but I just don't like it. I'm sorry.

Yoshiyuki Sadamoto (Evangelion, and pretty much any Gainax related art)
I wish he'd learn to draw more than two faces, but other than that, his art is exemplary. (Plus, his adaptation of a certain well-knows show is actually WAY better than the original, but that's more of a witting thing)
