>>280200818 (OP) It's impressive that while seinen/shonen mangaka suck at romance Miura nailed it on the head, Guts and Casca's relationship and first intimacy were depicted tremendously well

>>280202959 Miura was not that good at drawing women for decades. I remember thinking the slug count must have forced his son to larp as a girl, that's just how boyish looking Miura drew his girls/women. Perhaps his suddenly getting better at it during his last few years was due to his obsession with Idolmaster. Even in Gigantomakhia, which was relatively recent, the female MC still looked like a half-goblin, the piss fetish thing only made it worse.
