Favourite manga artists
Charapedia, a Japanese anime and manga character database, conducted a poll of its users' favorite manga artists. The poll was conducted from July 2 to 8 and collected opinions from 10,000 users and followers of Charapedia's Facebook pages. The list consisted of thirty artists and Akira Toriyama came third with Eiichiro Oda in at second place and Hideaki Sorachi coming out on top. A voter for Akira Toriyama explained why he voted for him stating, "He pulled along [Weekly Shōnen] Jump's Golden Age. And his artwork is great too"

Re: Favourite manga artists
Toriyama has one of the most endearing art styles I've ever seen in a cartoonist and mangaka. I don't just say that cause of DB. I'd easily put him at #1.
A lot of manga artists there (well, their series) stand out to me, honestly. Never heard of Gintama though. Looked it up. Characters look pretty generic.

"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super
Re: Favourite manga artists
No Naoki Urasawa in the list? Disappointed in Japan once again.
Even if my third favorite mangaka isn't there, my first two favorites are, congratulations to Toriyama and Oda.

Re: Favourite manga artists
Was this just for currently active manga artists? Otherwise, Osamu Tezuka's absence is a huge letdown. People don't call him the God of Manga without a reason.
Glad to see Togashi make the list at number 11. Now if only he'd actually manga on a consistent basis again.

Re: Favourite manga artists
a lot of great artists on the list however i feel like some of them should have much votes. I think the top 5 is much deserved but its crazy how Takehiko inoue is so far down the list, he has less votes than Kubo, really disappointing seeing Sui Ishida beat out someone like inoue.
I'm also a bit surprised that Tetsuo Hara is not on the list, Hokuto no Ken is pretty big in japan, in fact it was in the top 10 in THIS recent poll.
agreed, its highly disturbing that he's not even on this list.Doctor. wrote:No Naoki Urasawa in the list? Disappointed in Japan once again.
