At the end of the day manga looks the same. The only thing to differ are things like how well its drawn or the size and shape of some features. There could be a fantastic artist on this site. I've seen artists mentioned on the front page who I don't like - it's all a matter of taste. Some people may look realistic-looking people, some may like stylized people (like in One Piece). Some may like disproportionate people (like big boobs).

At the end it's all down to opinion isn't it? The same with American comics.

Personally I see artists features like the face the same to another artists which makes manga in general lack variety. This is just me talking.

Well, yeah. All a matter of opinion. Don't see how this thread can be debated.

I guess. The manga section doesn't see much action though.

Yeah, that's what I was wondering too. They contradict eachother.

Art only goes so far. Without a good story, a manga falls flat.

Fruits basket has, lets face it, rather mediocre art but it's still the best manga I've EVER read.
Two other underrated examples would be Mx0 and Pretty Face (same mangaka).
oh oh... and D.N.Angel.

Then there's artists whose every work makes me get a boner... but that's somewhat different from what we're discussing, I think.

Why do all these movies get praised?

At the end of the day movies look the same. The only thing to differ are things like how well its script is written or the size and shape of some scenes. There could be a fantastic director on this site. I've seen movies mentioned on the front page that I don't like - it's all a matter of taste. Some people may like realistic-looking movies, some may like stylized movies (like in 300). Some may like disproportionate movies (like Avatar).

At the end it's all down to opinion isn't it? The same with American movies.

Personally I see movie features like the story the same to another movie which makes cinema in general lack variety. This is just me talking.

Generaliztions, geralizations everywhere!

Why do all these PEOPLE get praised?

At the end of the day all PEOPLE look the same. I'm mean how unoriginal can you be, Oh look another two armed, two-legged person. How Passe. I mean just look at all of us we're all born(for the most part) 2 eyes, a nose, 2 ears, mouth, teeth..ETC. How can anyone tell anyone apart since we all have the same basic genome from which to build our structure from. I mean who even notices that some people are black, white, short, tall, skinny, or fat .....pppppffffttttt details smetails. I mean I find myself all the time asking people to undress because I'm unable to differ women from men with fake breast, since the genitalia is the only real major difference. I'm taken aghast when people look at me with asunder eyes and stares. If I mistake a woman for a man, which happens all the time let me tell you, and I see someone's penis is rather large I have to say, "OH he must be black."

1. As long as it looks good, I guess it doesn't matter if they all look similar. Takes talent+practice to make good drawings, and besides, all human beings have the same two eyes, a nose and a mouth anyway.

2. STORY. A manga is basically a variant of a story-telling medium that is called 'comics'. You can make 30 pages of Rennaisance-era quality comic, but if the story is as lame as any script in an Uwe Boll film, you ain't got shit. Some manga with kindergarten-grade artwork like Crayon Shin Chan survives on story alone, for example. You may want to argue that Shin Chan's story was based around a 5-year-old, but the short chapters aren't all in his POV.

I don't think you're really looking to debate intelligently on this issue though, TC. Your lack of sense and research gives me the impression that you're either just trying to spark a flame war, just bored, or both.

Yeah, all manga looks the same.

If only there was some sort of artist that liked to draw unrealistically large legs that would shake up the entire industry!

All humans look the same too, the only things that differ are color and size. I'm joking. I think.
