Why can't today's artists keep up with the pace that artists from the past had? I see more and more lack of detail in weekly manga, but artists from before had the same working hours yet produced spectacular drawings. I understand that Oda and Togashi draw terribly today, but it's understandable that their skills decline over the decades. However, these new artists don't even last a year before losing the detail in their drawings
>>286265659could be some kind of change in standard in the industry itself besides hours, though this is mainly an issue with shounenshit
This is definitely a Jump thing so maybe it's just a shift in management there.
>>286265659>but artists from before had the same working hours yet produced spectacular drawings.How sure can we be about this though? The older a manga is, the more likely we only have the volume version to look at. The version published in the original magazine might've been rougher for all we know.
>>286265659>artists from before had the same working hours yet produced spectacular drawingsartist from before literally killed themselves drawing their manga, its also why so many of them had dogshit endings, they literally just burned themselves out to death
It's entirely because of social media and Internet addiction preventing artists from honing their craft. You can choose any chapter of any manga made before like 2004 and find a lot of crazy art that "goes hard" as the kids say. Of course, survivorship bias does play a role, as we don't really think about all the series that fell through the cracks in an era where everything is equally accessible.
