Who's your favorite manga author?
Since there are so many out there I want to know!
Mine would Koge-Donbo:D
Osamu Tezuka or Toru Fujisawa, can't decide.
Kaori Yuki,(angel sanctuary, boys next door)
and Ayano Yamane (Viewfinder, Crimson Spell*coughyaoicough*)
Aside from a usually compelling story the art is just. amazing. I have all their art books.
But recently I've got to admit that I really like
Tite Kubo (Bleach)
His (It is a he right?) work is very lyrical and the art style is one-of-a-kind. Plus bleach is pretty badass imo
i like ikeyamada go's art . . so kawaii ! :]]
and also the CLAMP manga artists :]]
Hirano Kouta (I buy every volume of Hellsing just for the doodles he sticks at the end of every one of them).
Nihei Tsutomu (his drawings of architecture are top-knotch)
Well that's hard to choose from...
My top picks would be:
-Nobuhiro Watsuki (Rurouni Kenshin and Busou Renkin)
-Kazuya Minekura (Saiyuki series)
-Ryu Fujisaki (Hoshin Engi)
If non-Japanese are allowed, I'd include Youn In-wan (Korean who created Shin Angyo Onshi) in my list :)
-Tite Kubo (Bleach)
-Gosho Aoyama (Detective Conan)
-Natsuki Takaya (Fruits Basket)
-Rumiko Takahashi (Inuyasha, Ranma 1/2 etc.)
-Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto)
-Eiichiro Oda (One Piece)
And definitely -Hiromu Arakawa! (FMA!)
=w=~o
EDIT: How can I forget the famous CLAMP? I loved their work =^w^=
My personal favorite is Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist). Her work is simply incredible.
I have many...
Takaya Natsuki (Fruits Basket)
Yazawa Ai (Paradise Kiss, NANA)
Toboso Yana (Kuroshitsuji)
So I love the style and story! ^__^
I also love Ninomiya Tomoko (Nodame Cantabile) but her art compared to those others isn't that good even though I kinda like it.. ^^;Buuut the plot is just great! :D
Nobuhiro Watsuki because i just love Kenshin.
Masashi Kishimoto because i actually do like naruto, so it's hard choices between many.
Akira Toriyama.
No manga will ever replace DB. The style, the characters, the story... every box is ticked as 'perfect'.
Second place goes to Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto), because I get the impression that he really loves what he does (not to say others don't).
By "author" I'm assuming you mean the person in charge of the story, right? Just want to clarify, since often the artist and the writer are different people.
Writing-wise:
Miura Kentaro (Berserk)
Inoue Takehiko (Vagabond, REAL)
Kishimoto Masashi (Naruto)
Ueshiba Riichi (Nazo no Kanojo X)
Kio Shimoku (Genshiken)
Harold Sakuishi (BECK)
Oda Eiichiro (One Piece)
Kawashita Mizuki (Akane-chan Overdrive, Lilim Kiss, Ichigo 100%, Konojo to Natsu to Boku, Hatsukoi Limited)
Yu Aida (Gunslinger Girl).
Gunslinger Girl is my most favourite Manga and I love it a lot. T'is beautiful and the story and characters are simply amazing. Such epic pieces of work.
well, i like Yuu Watase...
she's the author of Ayashi no Ceres, Fushigi Yuugi, Absolute Boyfriend and I Won't Let You Become A Star, right?
hope im right, 'coz im not so sure...
Takeshi Obata and Tsugumi Obha for Death Note, and Masashi Kishimoto for Naruto! The first have outstanding art and technical storylines, and Masashi creates some of the best storylines I've ever seen! He has a way of making me feel at home in the Naruverse! Haha!
Ken Akamatsu, I just love Love Hina, Negima, and A.I. love you.
1. Ken Akamatsu ~ Love Hina, AI Love You, and Negima.
2. Monkey Punch ~ Lupin III
3. Yuu Watase ~ Ceres, Absolute Boyfriend
4. CLAMP ~ xxxHolic, Chobits, Tsubasa, Card Captor Sakura...
