Why has manga quality fallen off a cliff in recent years?

1982 (Dip pens (G-pen, Maru pen), India ink, mechanical pencils, Kent paper, screentone sheets, knives/scalpels, rulers, French curves, brushes, and offset printing.) & 2022 (All of the above + a host of improved analogue tools + complete digital control of the final product down to the exact color and pixel)

When everybody is a manga artist, nobody is.

It hasn't, you're just cherry picking from hundredss if not thousands of manga released annually. There's way too much to make any kind of general statements.

That's part of the problem. Publishers should be gatekeepers of quality. Since they don't do this anymore it's hard to justify their existence.

Digital artwork is inherently worse than pen and paper and I'm willing to die on that hill.

Miyazaki was simultaneously ecchi, while also respecting women. Modern manga is infested with western ideas of women as sex objects, gross and lame.

Because manga is 50% art, 50% writing.

people always say this wasn't it, but the death of miura and limbo of berserk definitely threw all these fuckers into a scrambling panic. it's like they literally thought they had eternity and now they can't start or continue a series without imagining it's death or theirs
