Why is it a tradition that the mangaka draw their own manga?

Why not hire professional artists so that each page of each manga looks like pic related?

you mean like ONE did with One punch man or thousands of other artist did with their manga ?

1. That does happen
2. What do you even mean by making each page like in the pic? Are you saying that manga should consist only of two page spreads?

They would not be called mangaka. They would be called authors.

that's what Yoshirō Nabeda did. then Shinichi Sakamoto turned out to be both a better artist and a better writer so the manga got much better when the ideas guy fucked off.

Because unlike anime which is pumped out industrially by uncaring, profit-hungry studios, manga is a labour of love by (usually) a single individual, with a few assistants tightly under their control

Are you implying that mangaka are NOT professional artists?

what the fuck are you even trying to say

>1. That does happen
That's why I implied that it was uncommon instead of saying that no mangaka does that
>2. What do you even mean by making each page like in the pic? Are you saying that manga should consist only of two page spreads?
I was referring to the quality of the drawing

Why is the creator of a manga both writer and illustrator?

1. Well of course it's uncommon, art is generally more important than story when it comes to being a mangaka. Consider the process of drafting, inking, cutting out screens for the tones, and drawing backgrounds. A lot more goes into the visual aspect of making a manga than it does into the written aspect, not saying that manga must be poorly written but there's a clear discrepancy in how much effort must go into which component of the whole. When you imagine how much has to gointo creating the art for a manga, it's a no-brainer that a mangaka would also want to write their own story.
2. Asano isn't exactly the best mangaka. Not trying to rag on the guy he's impressive at what he does (i'd seriously like to see any user that gives him shit for tracing real life pictures in photoshop to make art as high quality as his) but there are much better out there. Fuck just read Kokou No Hito, it's without a doubt what you want in art and yes, the story was written by the artist as well.

Because this way they get all money and fame. There is also a lot of manga where writer and artist are different people

Because most manga isn't made by a team of 30+ people, more like 3-8, and adheres to a much stricter schedule

>30+ people to draw 16 pages
Explain this

get glasses

That curiosity is what makes manga/comics such a unique storytelling medium.
When the writer and illustrator are two different people, they either have to communicate really well (which costs a lot of time) or their ideas about the story will diverge (which makes the story feel incoherent)
An author working alone can portray their own personal vision much more quickly and effectively.

Oyasumi Punpun used lots of photo manipulation. What you see is not pure drawing, and it was not intended to be.
One artist knows exactly what he wants, how his projected idea will look, and won't have problems with paneling. A two-man team requires impressive coordination and has to adhere to a stricter schedule, paradoxically.

They do it all the time, magazines like Dengeki carries adaptations of anime/game series that are clearly part of an organised commercial effort.

If you're asking why artists like Asano don't collaborate more often with writers:
1. They're likely already busy as hell with their own series. Hiromu Arakawa was working on her own FMA and collaborating with Huang JinZhou on Hero Tales, but artists like her are the minority. Plus she's working on a monthly schedule, more room to move.
2. They don't just work with any writer. Case in point - Murata didn't get hired to work with One, he sought One out to convince him to work with him because he wanted to draw his story badly.

Because pages like that are used as exceptions.

What manga is a good example of good drawing?

1) the japanese might care much more about the story than the presentation, somehow
2) probably, one of the reasons is that there's less things to communicate or review during the production if the author is also the drawer, and like said, strict schedule.

There are many mangakas who can write and draw their own stories and do a good job at both. Spend 5 minutes on wikipedia and you can come away with 20 examples.

Why settle for less?

Asano is a fag who uses stenciles because /s/he lacks talent

that doesn't look good you tasteless retard

This user is a fag who never drew a shit.

Good or bad are opinions. Still, OP is a faggot for making a thread like this.

What’s it like having absolute shit taste in a tranny mangaka, loved by tumblrinas, whose only talent is producing nice backgrounds in one manga oh hers that everyone reads and thinks they’re punpun

You understand that this shit is literally a photo with a filter slapped on it?
But of course, tasteless plebs keeps thinking that the more realistic the better it is, watch a movie then idiot.

>Tfw i started the meme about Asano being a transexual and even to this day i see retards falling for it.
Feels great!

He literally came out as a transsexual though

What don't you get? It's the same reason musicians write their own songs and film directors write their own scripts. Either they don't have the opportunity or means to delegate, or they want to do it all themselves.

But they aren't good enough??? F*ck the mangaka on your pic is a prime example. The anime was great because they got actual real artists to draw it but the manga is literally fucking unreadable.

I imagine the writting is just as good but me and most people will never read it because the creator is an inept nacissist.....

He didn’t you idiot.

>But they aren't good enough???
>F*ck
>the manga is literally fucking unreadable.

C'mon, man. You could at least try.

You don't need to hire a professional artist to make background from filtered photos.

And the less people are involved, the more idiosyncratic the creation remains.
