i am in awe of Inoue Takehiko's work in Vagabond. the detail is absolutely astounding and must be seen by everyone. he definitely could stand equal with Miura's work, IMHO.
Ktsuhiro Otomo (Akira ;D ;D ;D), of corse, Akira Toriyama (Dragonball, even though his stuff is kinda cartoony 
), and Yukito Kishiro (Battle Angel Alita) to name a few.
I also like a lot of American comic artists as well :), like Gerg Capullo (Spawn, and Creech was sooooo fucking awesome! ;D ;D Why it have to be only 3 issues long…. :'(), J. Scott Campbell (Gen 13), and Jason Johnson (he did a couple of issues of Wetworks and Gen 13: Interactive)
There are so many more, but I don’t want to take up too much of your time… :)

I was just looking at it in the 7-eleven today. It is a pretty sweet. Some mangaka that I think are pretty cool are:
Eiichiro Oda-While his work is a little strange to look at and some of his female characters look exactly alike his art has a very nice dynamic feel to it(Especially with Monkey D Luffy who if this manga were undertaken by a less imaginative artist his ability to stretch himself in any direction would not nearly be as exciting (For an example of that just look at Mr. Fantastic.).).
Yasuhiro Nightow-One of the worst things in manga is when an artist forgets to draw a consistent, coherent manga in favor of a very stylized approach. Nightow is very close to being that type of artist, but he manages to avoid it for the most part and he provides a pretty damn spiffy comic.
Nobuhiro Watsuki-The last arc of Rurouni Kenshin showed how much growth Watsuki had undergone as an artist since the beginning of the manga. Whereas the first few volumes of Kenshin`s art was poofy and really crappy the last volumes contrasted that by having a sharp and totally radical style to them. It was a little disappointing to see that even though his art had become better it didn`t work in cases like Gun Blaze West (Although I think tthat had more to do with the total lack of imagination put into that series.).
amen to that! he is one of the more "dynamic" artists in terms of changing his style
btw, dynamic in this sense does not have a positive connotation. it took him the whole RK series to discover his style. i'd argue that the jinchuu p1 has the most eye-pleasing art, but the final (jinchu p2) has best art.

i like Terada Katsuya (blood).
true, i used to really admire Samura's style alot. its like a sketch the entire way through and unlike anything else ive seen. then i found Vagabond, another Samurai "epic", and was astounded by its even more shocking level of detail, so i kinda forgot about Samura...
but yeah, Samura's style does kick some ass.
Yeah Samura is truly a brilliant artist!
When it comes to american or british artists, my absolute favorite is Simon Bisley (ABC warriors, Lobo, Judgement on Gotham etc), he's so incredibly skilled and he combines that talent with such bizarre humor I can't resist it :)
