I can't help it, all I have to do is look at the manga of about 25 years or more ago, and compare to those things of today... it gets blander and weaker and more mass-production like every day. I am not happy about it. I long for mangaka like Kaoru Mori, Jiro Taniguchi, Ikegami Ryoichi, Morimoto Kozueko... admit you don't seen that quality anymore...
No, it IS bad. You probably aren't very demanding... Just look up the work of the people I named higher up and look at their work... that used to be standard. If you're in anyway able to judge artistic quality, you'll see the difference. Only those who really aren't interested in anything else but the story can be happy with the sort of work that's being done today.
This story could have been nice if the drawings hadn't been so weak. Graphic standards for manga are really going down every day...
