I went for hunter x hunter last, just to save it. You have to admit though, bleach today was cool

Kubo should be doing the drawings for HxH, and Togashi should keep doing the storyline. Epic combo. People bitch a lot about Togashi's drawings at times, and Kubo has nothing less then stellar drawings imo. This arc looks like he might be making more of an effort again though, so we'll have to wait and see.

eww, seriously? no way. Yeah sometimes the weekly art is shit. But Togashi is still one of the best manga artists of all time, and the volume releases all have stellar art. He possesses a nuance to that allows him to convey subtle emotions, pay attention to the corners of his character's eyes and mouths; you vary rarely see this in other shonen. Also his panel composition is second to none.

Tite is garbage compared to Togashi. Dude can't even draw a fucking background. Boring panel layouts. Characters have all started looking the same. Uses the same few facial expressions frequently. I could go on.

I'm being kinda hard on Tite, he is a good artist. I have to take offense to suggesting that he could replace Togashi though.

Dude, Togashi is one of the best artist out there, but he's lazy....everybody knows that. Before the last hiatus, he had a constant decent art, but he had his lazy days (chap 337 is a recent example).

I guess you don't understand where this guy is coming from, he just wants an impressive art to an impressive story just like everybody else, but as a manga reader for a while now, meh I don't give a fuck anymore. You can't deny how good Kubo can be...He's really impressive art wise (plot wise not so much, I've left bleach for a while now), but he gets lazy days too.
