What are some mangaka that are good at paneling and scene composition? I'll start with the greatest: Yoshihiro Togashi.

All I see from this is that you enjoy it when people leave their panels.

neither of them are close to Togashi's mastery they are however better than the average mangaka(EX.OP image) but they are children when compared to Togashi's composition and flow to his panels.

To be fair, panelling is Togashi's one artistic strength.
Nathaniel Sanders
obviously togashi is at a level above the mangaka posted by those anons
Jose Cruz
He just make things bleed from the panels when it's something he deems impactful. There's special no flow or creative square cutting

Ryan Evans
It's not like those pages posted in the OP are bad, but they aren't one stop above everything like HxHwhisperers claim.
Like said he uses mainly one trick, and it looks good and can be effective at times, but there's a lot more to panelling, flow and the such than just one trick.
Mason Turner
Fujimoto
Chase Williams
>there's a lot more to panelling, flow and the such than just one trick.
This, Oda's paneling is basic but incredibly effective and some of the best in comics
Jacob Sanders
Ritz can be amazing when she isn't busy drawing boobs.
Gabriel Reyes
Togashi uses many tricks that could only be done by a master, like using extended panels to imply focus or time's passage, or like Kurapika's chain carrying from panel to panel implying the sense of momentum and snap of the chain as he pulls his arm back, or like using the absence of clear panels to let the page's last image act as a sort of framing device. Here, the extended panel focused on Kurapika's arm reflects the guard's preoccupation with discovering Kurapika's powers, the focus of his own eyes. I also like how we're led into this guard's perspective by the headshot that exists outside the panels entirely.
The cohesiveness and depth between writing and panelling in HXH exceeds anything else ever published in WSJ.
Also, I hope your pic is supposed to be unrelated.

Jacob Moore
Jack Lewis
Let's not forget about FKMT too. While the way he cuts panels doesn't seem outstanding, it's really good how he dispatches the dialogues between panels and uses them to make specific lines stand out more while also giving a good sense of the flow and pacing each panel has.
That's babby stuff.

Nolan Thomas
That's literally just basic panelling that any comic does, expected of a hxhfag to be too stupid to read that.
Austin Perez
Noah Taylor
Araki is more of an illustrator than anything else, he was atrocious at paneling and composition until the middle part of SBR. He finally doesn't put thousands of background details that makes everything incomprehensible after like 30 years (for the most part). It's still not great and I wouldn't compare him to masters like Tezuka and Togashi.
David Young
This composition is kinda nice, user.

I've read over 400 manga and I've never seen someone use panel composition, coreography and POVs so masterfully like Togashi. His simplistic art is perfect to focus the attention of the reader on the details of the story and the emotions he's trying to portray

Michael Phillips
Unironically based as fuck. Currently re-reading HxH at chapter 66 and I'm having the best time of my life with this manga. Even fucking Zushi using Ren for the first time gave me shivers. Togashi is ridiculously talented at composition and imparting emotion in everything he draws/writes. Let alone his character designs or artsy aesthetic that are unmatched by anyone else. Even his background characters are full of expression and care.

No, Mob psycho is absolute trash; the relationship went no where, the cult went nowhere. Every bit of story and introduced story went no where.
There was no point to even reading that, maybe if he knew how he was going to end it instead of ending it early to make time for OPM manga story boarding it could have been decent or good.
Everything was lacking and the fact that you like that garbage shows you have zero taste.
Have you even read the OPM comic?

Togashi is a master of fundamentals, paneling and creating memorable page composition. The man is a genius who can set up his scenes from interesting pov angles that are able to put in contrast what each scene is exactly trying to portray. As an example, I'll direct you to this page which is one my favorites of Togashi's magnum opus. Let me break it down for you:
The head shot of Gon breaks the boundaries of the first panel, which already takes up almost the entire first half of the page, making him feel imposing and setting the tone. His pointing hand is aimed right at the eyes of the reader and it seems to hover above the page, making it feel close and uncomfortable.
The reactions to his words are framed around the hand, small and unimportant. The final panel is a shot of the enemy's feet, giving the idea that they're looking down in defeat and submission.

Ayden Wright
I find it pretty ignorant that people who don't know anything about manga art would dare to criticize Togashi just because they dislike the fandom.
Togashi is known and respected by everyone in the industry and his art is studied by a lot of successful mangaka.
Here are some examples:
>Fujimaki (author of Kuroko no Basket): After seeing the expressions of the characters that Togashi-sensei has drawn, the area that surprises me the most is the corner of the mouth. Kurapika for example would always have this kind of expression, where the corner of his mouth is always slanted upwards or downwards, but because the shift is very slight, it looks like he is smiling, but also expressionless at the same time.
>Ishida: I’ve had this storyboard in my head constantly, but internally the bar kept getting higher… Because I was going to show it to Togashi-sensei, whom I greatly respect, I didn’t want to show him anything poorly done, and I wanted to construct my own worldview within “Hunter x Hunter”
>Ishida: That’s right. When I was in junior high school, the first manga I copied was of Hisoka. It was the scene where Hisoka is letting down his hair after a bath, after he has a battle in Heaven’s Arena. It was so cool I just had to draw it
I suggest you read the interview with Ishida, Fujimaki and Kishimoto and see how much they praise Togashi, not only for his writing skills, but for his art too.

You'd think so. I remember thinking the same thing in 2016.
Luis Garcia
Shit art only according to you. I've cited 3 notorious mangaka that praise his art. Togashi won art awards, there are professional critics that praise his art. So your subjective opinion is irrelevant.

quit being gay, art is subjective. those 3 mangaka youve noted also have shit art kys
Eli Foster
what makes it garbage, fag?
Alexander Adams
Togashi's fundamentals, sense of composition and paneling, and his understanding of anatomy, lighting, space/depth and expressions are unmatched.
Just look at the seamless combination of brushwork and hatching here against a plain white background to create a beautifully human depiction of Netero's last moments.
Brayden Green
cant tell whats happening and its all over the place doesnt matter though sense fujimoto's writing is also shit
Wyatt Reyes
>muh wacky broken paneling makes it unique and good
Huh? No sense of composition in these scenes.
Josiah Taylor
Who the fuck cares it's the least important thing in the world.
Ian Torres
No other mangaka can compete with Togashi's depiction of extreme emotions.
Kayden Lewis
Ah so youre retarded

im saying the panels should be easily read you fucking chimp thats why they're shitty all of fujimotos action scenes are like this unless their big panels that take up a whole page so you can stare at his shitty art
Brayden Butler
When I see pages like this in Japanese, it really makes me think how much is lost when things are translated.
Do other mangakas also utilize different fonts/typography like Otomo? It's quite stunning.
Chase Morgan
If you can't even read its panel composition, get the fuck out of this thread retard.
Oliver Lewis
Well, an example of Advanced Furi in HxH. You can see both "悪意/malice" and "進化/evolution" on it. A beautiful double meaning from Togashi in tandem with themes presented by this Arc that can't truly be translated.
Jeremiah Powell
I never said that, I said it's composition en scene literally doesn't exist in the first place.
Austin Cooper
>still no vegeta vs recoome
Connor Barnes
Boichi is not on Togashi's level when it comes to clean paneling & composition, let alone his top tier choreography. Let me demonstrate it with this example:
The first page shows Biscuit facing off against Binolt, a bounty hunter and serial killer. The audience to the fight, Gon & Killua, have no idea how powerful Biscuit is, and neither does the reader.
Togashi starts the page with Biscuit lifting Binolt up without effort; Biscuit’s body has almost no speed lines, emphasizing the ease with which she can lift a full grown man. Instead, all of the speed lines are focused in on Binolt’s body as it rises; he’s completely powerless to even move. The second panel emphasizes the same qualities: once again, Biscuit’s body barely moves, while Binolt’s spins at incredible speed. The final panel on the page boils the fight down to its pure essence: Biscuit, almost completely stationary while Binolt is sent exactly where she wants him.
>And then there’s the page turn
Forcing the reader to hold their expectation is one of the oldest tricks in comics, and Togashi knows it’s an evergreen technique. However, he also contrasts this new page with the former. There are speed lines everywhere, more impact lines, heavier crosshatching, and mild exaggeration in the features. The previous page is time boiled down to a few moments, milliseconds even. This page is time speeding up. Biscuit hits Binolt so hard he vomits a frankly improbable amount of blood before he even hits the ground. It’s the next three seconds of the fight boiled down to a single, action-packed panel. The middle-bottom panel is Gon and Killua, barely visible and stunned. And then Biscuit ends the page by clarifying that she wasn’t using her full strength.
In two pages, Togashi’s made a girl in a puffy umbrella skirt cooler than your favorite character, using comic techniques familiar to almost any comics reader.
Carson Smith

You're joking right, this entire thread has to be satire. I don't understand how hxh fags can be this delusional. It's a good manga but rarely because of its art. Can someone just post some creative panelling like the atelier one I posted above.
I want to more with panelling like that.
Lincoln Russell
it is a paneling and composition thread not a one panel thread which means that pages should have flow and be able to be read ive seen better paneling in shitty webcomics

>but rarely because of its art.
Again, says who? We're presenting arguments with facts and logic and even some quotes by established mangaka praising Togashi's art and all you can do is say "NO ITS BAD ITS BAAAD".
Henry Perry
Plebs who have only read 5 manga like you shitpost because you are unfamiliar with advanced paneling, this doesn't make him a bad artist. Just look at that garbage you posted.
Now, let me dissect, both the art and storytelling of this very panel from chapter 352 page 19, to demonstrate why Togashi is seen as one of the best artists in the industry.
>A. The general clutter of the panel and floaty-ness of the character art shows how chaotic the setpiece is, and how Hisoka's mind is narrowing down to focus solely on Chrollo's devious tactics. As if time was slowing down for this train-of-thought.
>B. The white space behind Hisoka's head is used to show how empty of other subjects besides this battle his mind is. Narrowing down to the basics of the fight.
>C. We are then brought back to Hisoka's face, which expresses a mixture of smug surprise, and devilish determination. And swirling in front of him and as well as (seemingly) to his side is a menacing smog. Which has typically been used to communicate blood-lust in this manga.
There is much more into the art of drawing than having detailed realistic figures, that retard know nothing about paneling and composition. Suck Osamu Tezuka's rotten, worm-dwelled, dead dick.

Does someone have a link to the ONE version of the Centipede fight ? (the pages he gave to Murata to design the fight).
Benjamin Anderson
He makes a bunch of unique framing and panel choices in the Hisoka vs Chrollo fight alone that people who claim to be all about the art totally miss. His character, creature, and world design are so inventive too. Togashi is a true Master.
Asher Brown
Aaron Peterson
Dylan Torres
Fair enough, I'm a bit biased about that scene anyway.
It's a nice page but in the majority of pages, especially in the most recent arc, he's way too text heavy and it's a poor use of the medium. And I'm not sure if it's just the shit translations but in a lot of words he manages to say very little. It's a common trend I've noticed in hunterchad posts too.
Funny you mention Tezuka, I'm just finishing off Buddha right now.
Michael Jones

Carter Rogers
Jaxon Cruz
Those Kurapika chapters had phenomenal paneling. There are so many little dynamic artistic flourishes in the way Togashi paneled out what could have easily been a visually boring conversation if it were any other mangaka that gives the subject the appropriate weight.
Pic related, Kurapika and Melody leaning on and over the panel border as if it were a rooftop wall for example.
Jonathan Morgan
Bentley White
You know how these days no one has a Hitler style mustache? I mean, theres nothing wrong with that style really, it can look pretty boss. But still no one gets one because HItler had it. Stupid really, but its the way the world works.
I can't help but feel the same way towards HxH because of the Hunterchads bullshit. I know it's irrational, and there might even be some truth in what you guys are saying, but you're just such insuffereable cunts it makes me not want to read the manga by association.

Jace Fisher
That fight was so fucking great. Both from a story telling point of view and from an artistic point of view. An early shot of a severed head being weighed against a bowling ball underlines Togashi’s sense of mythic whimsy, while the minimalist evocation of an angry outburst reduced to splashes of ink demonstrates his strong eye for visual drama. Strange monsters melt through the walls of a ship, while Hisoka’s design shifts dramatically depending on the goals of a panel. And yet, in spite of all this visual eccentricity, there are still plenty of panels demonstrating Togashi’s grasp of the fundamentals. The clear impact of Chrollo landing his first clean hit. The dynamism of Hisoka making a desperate bungee gum escape. The beauty of a page framed as one continuous cycle, a trick he pulls off both through dramatic shading and through the natural curvature of the arena.
Nolan Scott
Great choice, one of my favorite scenes.
Levi Bailey

Jayden Gray

What makes you think somebody cares if you pick it up or not? Sales are 1 mil per volume, the fandom is loving this arc, critics are already calling it a history changing arc on par with CA and our threads have 120+ IPs even when we're on hiatus.
HxH is an exclusive club for intellectuals. Togashi doesn't want low IQ subhuman like you following his series because they wouldn't be able to understand or appreciate what he's doing.
Ian Wood

Parker Roberts
The recent chapters are text heavy because Togashi is doing info dumb and exposition in this part of the story. All the text is very important to understand how things will play out in the future. But we still get some really nice panelling. Like the Theta and Tse panels that were pretty much without any text and the genius of it was that Togashi used a "Memento" approach by giving us a chapter without any clue and we couldn't understand what was going on and then later on he went and explained what happened, so when you re-read the Theta and Tse chapter, you'll see the greatness of those panels.
Gavin Wood
Well, people have already posted the better pages already, but there's a lot of less dramatic examples of panels being used or frames in visually interesting ways
Zachary Taylor
"Shounenshit" is the very core of the manga and anime industry. All the great names have written or started with "shounenshit".
Tezuka, Nagai who are considered the Gods of manga have written shounen. The biggest and most influential magazine in Japan is shounen.
Shounen has always been part of the manga industry since the beginning.
Jose Gomez

Can you tell me what you mean by momentum because this page looks very static to me. There's no sense of motion being conveyed by this closeup.

Another one. This page is ridiculously good. It is the perfect example of how beautiful paneling can trump complicated and overdrawn work. It has to do with the amount of black used, and the only difference between the two sides is the dragon. This is the calm before the storm.
Jack Davis
dont you have to go and pray the axe doesnt end fujimotos current terrible manga
Benjamin Peterson
When Togashi was 20, he won the coveted Osamu Tezuka Award for new manga artists. On that occasion he met Tezuka who said to him that his manga will inspire the new generation.
Julian Lopez
This is a mess. You people really like manga that has absurd paneling like that? It just seems like a gimmicky narrative technique.
Andrew Thompson
You're alright user
Jose Sanchez
no because i like fire punch not chainsaw man. stop assuming things, its just getting embarrassing now
Brandon Martin
none of those are that great at displaying story or time/movement which is the real challenge when paneling a scene.

He's ringing the doorbell and the close-up focuses on Kurapika's chains which are a big reveal in this chapter.
Brayden Lee
Too bad his manga bears absolutely no resemblance to Tezuka.
If he's inspiring anyone, it's evidently regressive as hell.
Jose Parker
That's the only time that particular style of shaking panels off happens, most of the time the story is presented in a more conventional manner. It's the occasional flourishes that make it more interesting
Camden Campbell

Right but that has nothing to do with "momentum". It's a static pose, there's no motion to transition the full body shot into the hand closeup.

Level E feels very similar to Tezuka's work. You should check it out.
Alexander Butler

it doesnt matter fujimoto's art(yes retard that includes composition and paneling) is shit, is still bad between series. quit pushing fire punch as EPIK KINO LULZ because its shit with nonsensical art and an even worse plot.

Julian Johnson
might be that ONE's chicken scratch forces both himself and the reader to not rely on the art to interpret the story so it gets a lot more focus / attention.
Brody Russell
I read Level E. It RARELY looked nice, but the narrative was so fucking boring and convoluted. The only good part of that story was the baseball chapter. Most of the time the manga looked like pic related.
Jacob Hughes
compared to Tezuka, which is always filled with such interesting scene/action/movement.

You really didn't enjoy Level E? It was pretty interesting, the comedy was funny, Prince Baka was actually a very entertaining and well written character too. It had some thought provoking arcs like the one with the FtoM person falling in love with a female alien.
The art wasn't as good as HxH, but it was very realistic.
Also, I love Tezuka too, so I can't say anything about him. He's a God and if you say that he's better than Togashi, I can't argue with that.

how do you keep forgetting such a important thing in a debate? and the word "kino" cant even be used here because its definition is for great movies. And i never even said it was the best dipshit. Now that we have aside how wrong you are again, lets talk about the actual topic. yes it does have good art. there you go, thats all you get because thats actually how much thought you put into your side of the argument queer

is this a false flag to show how shit Togashi is?
this page barley communicates anything without context. why would anyone think it's a good showcase of his paneling? or are people seriously that impressed by drawing outside of the panel boxes?

Otomo's strength lies in details, aesthetics (like backgrounds etc.) and setting. But Togashi exceeds in everything else like panel arrangement, composition which leads to great atmosphere, character designs and drawing emotions.

that's the only page you've posted where the paneling has any relevance to the storytelling, and it's pretty average. and it's not because the gimmick of drawing over panel lines that you're so impressed by.
you're basically exclaiming how cool something like 3D films are while insisting it's an amazing use of cinematic technique.
Noah Perez
Jacob Cook
either way, still a panel thread in case you have forgotten again anyway youre gay for mentioning the fanbase and how is he bad? he told a story. it had great characters, theme and a clear story. its pretty simple to say the least.

I love HxH and I can confirm that 90% of it is shitposting on purpose to piss people off
It's like any other aggressive trolling campaign, it falls within the boundaries of the rules, it's not technically off topic, and the only thing they're really "doing" is engaging in bad faith/insincerely, but it's a deliberate attempt to piss people off
Use this wave of HxH faggotry to become more talented at counter-trolling and improve your abilities
This is the "taunt" skill, applied and refined into a weapon
Cooper Green
I never said anything about drawing over panel lines, though? I linked you to the Tse and Theta chapter which is an example of "paneling has any relevance to the storytelling". You probably didn't even read it and just gave it a quick look. There are a lot of examples where Togashi does this, have you even read the manga?
Aiden Hernandez
It's the 2001 Dark Horse release.
Jayden Jones
One of my favorite pages from this set of volumes. This is a lot of panels for Togashi, who usually likes to keep his pages on the compact side, but it works super well. As the ball travels towards Gon, the other characters on the far left side are reacting in time with the ball traveling. The layout makes it feel like the ball is moving.
Triggered brainlets who can't debunk any of the Hunterchad kino ITT.
Joseph Bennett

This. Whenever I'm losing, I immediately start samefagging and poorly defending the guy with absolutely terrible arguments that are easier for me to dismantle. My opponent immediately gets annoyed and starts some damage control, making it easier for me to approach his previously surgically precise points since he's wrangling a retard and is in arrogant mood since he's currently winning an argument, allowing me to eventually secure the win when he inevitably slips up.
Such is the life of a Hunterchad. If you're getting beat down, it's just another opportunity to manipulate the enemy. "Every situation has an opening." That's an adage that only Hunterchads swear by, compared to the hot-headed OPcel who gets flustered and starts spamming at the slightest hint of losing.
Zachary Butler
End.

Another brilliant page from Greed Island. Each of those swirly lines had to be drawn individually, and Togashi uses them to communicate what the bomber is seeing. We can see his glasses, and Gon in the chaos. Remarkable work.

Probably that fake interview that never happened. The only time Togashi even mentioned Oda was during his interview with Kishimoto saying that Oda had introduced a lot of characters in one of his arcs.

>I never said anything about drawing over panel lines, though?
because the only examples of "good paneling" is shit where the drawings go over panel lines. you're just posting stuff you think looks cool without understanding what you think is impressive about the paneling. this is best example from HxH in this thread so far and it's still average compared to a sports manga.
