Too bad, but thanks for the info.

alexenterprises1 said:To be fair, Miura has forgotten small details on Guts like this before.
Eluvei said:My guess is he thought it looked good like this and just didn't bother to change it.
Kaladin said:I know that in recent times Miura hasn't done any significant changes to episodes in the volume release but i was hoping he might touch up episode 347. That episode looks worse than any other episode from the last few years, very unpolished.

Arles said:Yuka Kuramochi has been distributing what I guess are prints of the extras/promo images along with the release of Vol.39 and the new Novel.
Arles said:Can anyone confirm if these have been seen before? I like Guts's "collage"
Aazealh said:It also includes a full page version of volume 39's cover illustration.
The collage itself is new, the rest isn't.
Ouch.Rupert Sinclair said:If anyone is curious, the newest episode is not in the volume.
RaffoBaffo said:Ouch.
So less than 200 pages.
That hurts more than the Anime.

Sareth said:That's disappointing, I was hoping that a lot of the wonkiness from 344-347 would be fixed.

Bender said:If you really want to get nit picky there are a few panels where there are some blank faces on characters, and the only reason they stand out is because he usually takes the time to add those tiny details in.
Bender said:My volume came the other day and I really don't see any "wonkiness". I really think people are making a big deal over nothing. All the art work in the issues of Young Animal has always looked fine to me. It is these weird scans that people are seeing that are different. Going on and on about line thickness and traced panels is asinine.
The volume looks great and the digital painting of all the elves looks fantastic. He really has mastered a new skill. Maybe this is part of the reason why releases have slowed down, he wanted to learn how to draw/paint another way.
The style Miura draws some things may have changed over the last few years, but that is nothing new. Also they may be using different tools to create some of the backgrounds and tones, but this is nothing drastic. If you want to criticize his work, I think you can comment on the already mentioned cover art. If you really want to get nit picky there are a few panels where there are some blank faces on characters, and the only reason they stand out is because he usually takes the time to add those tiny details in.
Aazealh said:Just so it's clear, most of the background faces or art that doesn't have much added value is drawn by assistants and not Miura himself. And the difference between his work and that of his assistants is typically quite easy to spot.
Mangetsu said:Although the line work looks much better in the volume, it is clearly obvious that Miura has been using much thicker lines for his characters.
Kaladin said:Again, this isn't a big deal at all and I'm sure you all noticed as well but they stuck out like a sore thumb.
Bender said:Even when dealing with Guts and the rest of the main cast? It's only a couple of instances, but it just stuck out because for majority of the time, there is detail when it can fit.
Bender said:It is interesting to see him recompose art to use again. I wonder if this will be a common thing.
Hope it will be used as it seems to be used until now, as clever time management, and give attention to the panels that do need that visual level of miura giving it his all. The panels where that happens were more verbal exposition so I'm not scared of this happening as much in these coming panelsAazealh said:This is related in that I think reusing panels is something that's being tried by the team to lighten their work load. Seems they're trying to remix Miura's own artwork to produce a quality result with less effort. Obviously it's had varying degrees of success, so I'm not sure how it'll go in the future.

Aazealh said:Second I really like the poster of the Sovereign of the Flower Storm, I think it's one of the best illustrations in recent memory.
