Do you read manga for the artwork or storytelling?

i switched to manga after i notice how retarded american comics are with their story telling, the same exact villian escapes every week and get stopped the same way over and o er again, and no o e ever dies.

that being sayd part of the entertainment is looking at the nice artwork. i rather read a manga with bad art but a good story though.

I rather read for stories than art. That being said I sometimes also read things only because of an unique art style.

If the art is too bad it can be distracting, but good art usually can't save a shit story. For stories that have a manga and a novel I prefer to read the novel first.

>all american comics are capeshit
spotted the retard. you're no worse than normies who hate manga for its garbage tropes.

>no worse
no better*

The story, because I consider the webcomic version of OPM better than the redrawn manga.

Even in some cape-comics what said isn't always a common thing.
He probably only read some mainstream DC/Marvel shit.

I spend on average 3 seconds on a double spread pages with no significant amount of dialogue on it.
If I liked art I wouldnt watch manga. I like color as a way to represent ideas.

So you don't read manga but watch anime instead? Otherwise your post literally makes no sense.

I'm pretty picky. I read manga for good art, but the story must also be passable, which for the most part it's not. If I want a good story, I'll read a book, watch a movie, or read a western comic.
There is much more to comics than capeshit. It's like only reading battle shounen. You get fed up after the first few.

No I read manga for the opportunity to fulfill my social interaction quota on 4chans
Then I listen to music to inspire my imaginations

It's a combination of both. ONE's scribbles work well with his comedy manga but no one would read a more serious manga like Monster if it had the same style. The art must compliment the story.

I think story should always come first. However if your story is not good enough, you better make sure your manga has awesome art to make up for it, especially if it's a fighting manga, or you end up with shit like Touhou Silent Sinner in Blue, in which both art and story drag each other down.

mostly for both. vinland saga and berserk both have incredible art and amazing stories

Both, but I'd rather read a manga with shit art and a good story than the opposite

well i've read all of the HxH manga so yeah story i guess.

If by artwork you mean the adorable faces of cute girls then yes, definitely that. But I also appreciate a good story.

That reminded me that pic related hasn't been updated for like 10 years.

Both. But the story is more important. I can enjoy a good story with amateurish art (OPM webcomic), and good art really elevates a great story (vagabond) but good art alone can't salvage a story that is or is going to shit (Bleach)

>I read 2 western comics and believe every other is the same

Both obviously... Some are better at one aspect, but without one of these it's something i can't enjoy.

When the artwork tells the story.

These but while I'd get turned off by a shit story, I wouldn't mind a lack of plot and the manga being mostly about the aesthetics, I think Blame! comes to mind

Was Blame the ultimate "show don't tell" ride?

I have also read like 2 western comics and already know that not all of what exists is capeshit.

>Do you read manga for the artwork or storytelling?
Yes. You can actually have both.

Which manga do you think has the most extreme "Great art - Terrible story" ratio? Where is the biggest difference to be found?

Story, otherwise I'd have finished Prison School and I would've never finished Devilman.

>Which manga do you think has the most extreme "Great art - Terrible story" ratio?
Anything BOICHI.

One Punch Man and this

>devilman has bad art
absolute pleb tier opinion

Storytelling for shingeki

Artwork is a medium for storytelling. The majority of dialogue in a comic is superfluous.

It's hard to find good artwork in serialized manga because of time constraints.

for the waifus

Read more monthly manga.

Depends. I can forego the art if the story or writing is good enough to keep me interested. Other times, I'll read something because it has cute girls, even if it's shit.

Yes

>OPM
i liked mob psycho because of how good the characters are, with less focus on the fighting, although when it happened it had great choreography
should i start OPM as well?

I would do witout a weekly release date of my favorite series for a monthly schedule, because chances are very high that the art and story would improve.

It's a great story that celebrates growing through difficulties and challenges and the desperation and emptiness that comes with a lack thereof, but much more comedic than mob. The manga is heavier on fights than the webcomic but still delivers on that regard.

OPM is perfectly fine, although if you want it to be more like Mob, you should probably stick to the webcomic.
Murata's art is fucking great, but it lags behind in the story.

Look I also jumped from Cartoons and Comics to Anime and Manga, but to say Manga doesn't have stupid story telling is blantantly false.
Isekai as a genre is dumber than even some of the dumbest Superman, Hulk and other storylines. The romance genre has been plagued by spineless self insert MCs and mentally deranged tsunderes and the people who worship them. Series will make their MCs more overpowered to the rest of the cast than Superman does for the JL.
And my god at least when Comics get political it's some other topical issue. Not 'WW2 AND AMERICA BAD' for the trillionth time.

I'm pretty close to going back to just comics. I feel like I've exhausted all the good manga.

The two things.

Mangas and Comics are both Picturebooks. Its as easy as that. If the Art is great but the Story is boring i wont read it, like shoujos as they arent my genre. And if the Art is bad but the Story is great its acceptable to read it like SnK.
But if the Art is horrible, no matter how good the Story may be its still utter dogshit, just like HxH
