Re: which Artstlye is the Best
Saiyan and Cell arcs look the best to me. All of DB Part. I is close second with the Boo arc at dead last. Most of it looked lazy... to the point even Toriyama-sensei himself mocked it once.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

That image is missing his style in the early Kanzenban volumes which I love.

Re: which artstlye is the best
Yeah, I made a thread about this before The art style I like best are his Saiyan-Freeza (89-90) ones. It looks the most appealing to me, after that, he starts getting sloppier. His Neko Majin art style (2005) looks really good as well.
Re: which artstlye is the best
as for me 87 and 94
worse or beter say less compelling might be the 88

Re: which artstlye is the best
It's hard to choose between them, but I'll give it a try.
For DB it's 85,88 and for Z 91,92,93

Re: which artstlye is the best
King Piccolo arc, Saiyan arc and Android/Cell arc Goku look the best to me.

Re: which artstlye is the best
i am still trying to get used to this artstyle
Re: which artstlye is the best
93-95 hands down. There's no better Toriyama art then end of Z Toriyama art (at least in my opinion). The current Toriyama art makes my eyes bleed.

Re: which artstlye is the best
Honestly, I think the thing I have most issue with in his newer artwork, aside from the anorexic proportions, is that he uses such overly thick outlines, and it makes everything look way more cartoonish than it should.
In general, his art styles from the original run of the series were one of the main appeals of the series to me back in the day, and his newer style just doesn't capture what I originally loved about his work.

Cell arc is his best work (IMO).

Re: which artstlye is the best
As for the worst... I think that's 92'...
It just looks to sloppy and the faces are too sharp compared to what Toriyama's capable of.

Those are the epitome of Dragonball.

Re: which artstlye is the best
89-90 looks the best for me!
Thats because it was apparently reported that Toriyama was still using ver 1 Photoshop. Which someone should have already upgraded it for him, it would make his job much easier and make his art look better.Metalwario64 wrote:Honestly, I think the thing I have most issue with in his newer artwork, aside from the anorexic proportions, is that he uses such overly thick outlines, and it makes everything look way more cartoonish than it should.
