They never fucking finish anything, take constant breaks, make up shitty excuses why they aren't working, and are either stretching out the manga because they have no fucking clue how to end it or because they just want to milk the success until they die.

And so many more. Seems to be a natural trend that old mangaka are just lazy cunts. Look at Manga that have come out within the past few years. Dr Stone has over 1/3rd of berserk's content and it is only 2 years old. MHA is creeping up there with a few hundred chapters under it's belt. And a lot more that are constantly being worked on every day or have already finished. Meanwhile Miura and Togashi are just sitting around doing fuck all and releasing 1 shitty chapter every 5-6 months.
Pre-2000 Mangaka are Lazy

Are you really comparing dr stone and berserk
Exactly, Araki is an immortal being that works hard every day for his colleagues sins.
well, they're rich now, if they wanna chill they have the right to do so
Being eternal, Araki doesn't really count as "pre-2000", since he doesn't experience time in the manner we are used to.
Pic unrelated as Araki is aging like a fine wine while Togashi traded his spine for Dragon Quest and Miura got dragged down into Idolhell.
I'm only comparing their length and the time they were conceived. Berserk is almost 30 years old (31 if you count the 'pilot' manga) and still only has 300 chapters, because Miura is a lazy cunt. He doesn't even use ink anymore, everything is done on drawpads/computers which make the entire process not only easier, but faster. And he still takes constant breaks and only releases 1 chapter a year.
Also Dr Stone really has some amazing panels and art in it. Don't shit on Boichi, kid. In terms of the human form Boichi has Miura beat tenfold.
I do wonder if its literally mangaka pride that stops Togashi from releasing the story of HxH as a novel.
