>I am NOT saying "comics should draw in anime style"
This is actually something I've been giving some serious thought lately, and have been considering writing a blog post under the bold title of "Manga doesn't actually exist" or something along those lines.
What i'm getting at is that. What we know as "manga style" is largely actually just "good art", and it appears distinct from comics because comics are just so consistantly bad that anything that is not bad immediately appears foreign and therefore manga.
I'll start with this little comparisan collage of noses.
It's a popular misconception that in anime, all the noses are little dots, but this is evidently not the case. They know how to draw noses, and they draw them very well, they are never disagreeable to look at, however in comics, the noses are often hideous to look at, because they don't know how to draw them in an appealing way.
