Peculiar Drawing Style

The mangaka's drawing style is peculiar in a sense that it seemed to me like a combination between crayon drawing and mastery of the art which revealed itself through her use of the lining work to highlight at times some particular aspects related to her characters' features, notwithstanding her ability to convey anger, hatred and evil through her drawings (which is the brilliant part in my opinion).

This is the manga with a drawing style which I like the least (or don't like at all). I am still listing it because I wanted to figure out why the drawing art ticked me off. I think that the mangaka was trying here to produce yuri using the dramatic art which characterizes seinen. However, there seems to be a lack of harmony between her vision and the art she used (either the art isn't translating the vision accurately or the latter isn't guiding the art thoroughly).

I think that OSHIKIRI Rensuke who is a male mangaka has his own hallmark style which is reminiscent of Frankenstein DC comics for example. He excelled in putting "his stamp" on all his characters' facial expressions and gestures creating hence his own dark humor ambiance. This is a must-see for fans who would like to explore a horror manga under a black humor light (and art).

KUSUMOTO Maki is someone who is characterized by a very "peculiar" drawing style. I would have wanted to know more about her work and art. However, this will gradually come, I am sure. In the meantime, I strongly recommend K no Souretsu for its gothic inspired art.

This is an exceptionally realistic art where we can clearly distinguish racial diversity. It is my first time seeing in a manga characters who actually look like Asians instead of the typical westerners' looks. Of course westerners' looks, African or Asian or any other looks based on racial differences are all appreciated. Warning though there are nudity, explicit graphic content and violence involved.

This graphic novel possesses a beautiful art which is the reflection of a unique style. The artist is also skillful in his storytelling capabilities. Each word has its own place and each story is told in a compelling voice; it also ends in a masterful way. The artist's storyteller voice could be described as being poetic and enchanting.
