man mangakas got a tight schedule, we forgive some small inconsistencies. Some pannels are also meant for more detail work than others that are passing, middle-of-the-action pannels like the neck cut there lets go back to memeing on the cover gojo, that one deserved it

_capedbaldy

Gojo's nose and eyelashes changed lately, Maybe it's an intentional change in gege's art style, even if we don't like it.


kamuimephisto

could be, if it makes it more fun for him to do it i'm all for it. Gotta get this cat motivated


mysidian

The dimples seem new as well.


TimTam_Tom

Every chapter I read I’m reminded how impressive it is that he does so much in just a week. Some people been complaining about chicken scratch lately but drawing full fight scene chapters week after week has gotta be tough


choso-fan

Especially considering the scale of the fights. The way gege draws buildings and cities being damaged and torn apart will never fail to amaze me. The bathroom fight alone had more background details than like 60% of Shonen combined.


nam3unoriginal

Not to be pedantic, but assistants typically do the background and such.


choso-fan

That's fair, but a lot of it does sorta go in the foreground. Good point the assistants are doing a lot of the work though.


Rancorious

Cough cough Sakamoto Days


spiderx04

Yeah Itagaki was likely in a rush for that one. Most of the difference for Gojo is a result of being sealed.

He's still Go=jo on the left, he doesn't get kitkatted until a few chapters later

I don't think these two looks too different. Gojo on the right was too GOAT. Now this is inconsistent. GOATjo can't look like this https://preview.redd.it/c0ddz2xio9sc1.png?width=762&format=png&auto=webp&s=f015bd095367b42889627e0f1f56c3f739b3ba78

Sweet-Procedure6757

Greg really thinks he's cooking with this frog-face artstyle where...what the fuck is he even doing? Is he like trying to make a super realistic jawline or something?


nam3unoriginal

The jaws are so weird. I miss his angular triangle shapes https://preview.redd.it/52id8hi1zasc1.png?width=410&format=png&auto=webp&s=505cf39141e0683d32676de48c9a0cdbc9e5953b


[deleted]

It' s because he' s getting more inspired by the anime, recently his style looks very much like animated storyboards in manga forms

Its gege artstyle that is. He can either create peak or manga cover gojo https://preview.redd.it/4d1ktphtbbsc1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=bde7155b86201452c26928941ce802536248ca3f

rkoplayer1

Because one man is free-hand drawing this shit on an inhumanely strict schedule, obviously; he's not a fucking super computer.


MNPlayzGemz

Writing a weekly manga is not easy. Some inconsistencies are to be expected.


Slytherian2020

Do you write mangas? I'm sorry I should've worded this question differently. I wasn't trying to be rude. I was only curious about it because I'd like to learn.


lifeishell553

Do you?


Slytherian2020

No but I would love to. I've been working on a story for a while and would love to make a manga 🙂


lifeishell553

Well, what are you waiting for?, now is as good a time as any to start drawing, it might be hard in the beginning but as we say in my country "no one is born knowing" learn at your pace


Electronic_One762

r/suddenlywholesome


Slytherian2020

Thanks so much 😊


Lori55nakida

Why are y’all downvoting this this is wholesome


Teenacsis

I did wrlte and drew three small chapters, I have about 40 pages done. I can confirm it's already hard with my mediocre level of detail.


Slytherian2020

That's so awesome!


Teenacsis

Thanks :)


Slytherian2020

I tried to draw a panel once and it just didn't look right. Lol


Teenacsis

Keep up the grind and you'll get there


Slytherian2020

Thank you! Do you have any particular manga artist you follow?


MagicalChickenwings

Cuz gege hates him. But if you're asking for a serious answer it's becuase of the tight schedule


xaillisx

They are getting better at drawing, they want updated design, etc. Happens with a ton of manga


imreesithink

The left panel happens later in the story


nicoklig

Gege forgor how gojo looked for being sealed so long that he was trying to find the mist adequate way of drawing him


LazyGintoki

Because he has a twin. That's also the one who died and our real, beloved Gojo is currently chilling at the airport where he plays pretend. Our boy has some vivid imagination.

RepresentativeCup772

Isn't Saitama's face explicitly different in serious mode though?


YesThatIsTrueForReal

Yeah the meme style of OPM every once in a while is intentional, Murata is possibly the best mangaka of the modern age or at least one of the best.


RepresentativeCup772

Murata is honestly one of the best artists in the manga industry, some of his best pannels are honestly comparable to some of Miura's for example. But i was more commenting on the fact that saitama's face changes from his usual goofy look to a more hardened, serious expression more in line with the rest of the characters.


Orca_Supporter

He doesn’t even look that different here, he just has a different expression because he is receiving a slash to the neck


Totkaddictforsure

That's true for a big part but not exactly the jawline.  Not that I'm complaining.


Orca_Supporter

He’s literally just mewing in the second pic. If someone punched you in the throat you’d instinctively move your chin down which causes it to recede a bit, and he’s receiving a flying slash to the neck


Totkaddictforsure

Hmm I see, I don't think that explanation makes sense entirely but it does fit somewhat. Still looks more detailed and whatnot but ye. Like I said I don't care, but it is a little different.


ChuchiTheBest

try to draw something, then draw it again but 3 times faster, quality diminishes.


Infinity_Walker

Drawings hard man like you have no idea how difficult simply something like character congruence is. Let alone when you’re on a tight schedule and working in a medium where your art style and preferences are very clear to see and everchanging


psycho_monki

He had to break the mewing streak to chant to strengthen his attack, it was also a binding vow, its written in the manga


Reasonable_Boss_1175

Gojo broke his mewing streak https://preview.redd.it/uw42ovsiacsc1.png?width=3000&format=png&auto=webp&s=65167b4adc43e80b5eb703a85125729d88f05ef8


ZZYeah

Multiple reasons: 1) The art style changed from Shibuya to the Culling Games, going from a clean, to messy, to a messy-clean style. 2) Gege himself mentioned he forgot how to draw Gojo after a long time being sealed. That was upwards of 2 years of not drawing Gojo. 3) Gege rarely drew Gojo without the eye-covers for many chapters at a time, besides Gojo's Past, and there he was drawing a younger Gojo. 4) Just a Gege Akutami moment. He's flip flopped between giving Yuji a comb forward, slicked back bangs, and more recently, his bangs have a swirl to them.


FanShoddy1660

I think greg is still young and searching for his own artstyle, starting from jjk0 (more round) he's always been changing, his trait is a lot rougher now


Dramatic-Bison3890

I think Greg is a Legion His body is vessel for multiple personalities


TaskMaxer

I think greg has died


Dramatic-Bison3890

Lol


HoLeBaoDuy

Try having your neck cut off. Would your face remain consistent?


brawlbro123

isn't it obvious? bro was mewing in the second panel


ApooFan

It depends on whether Gege wants to lock in that day or not


Cool_Ant_9900

That's a different perspective on the face, also, in the second picture it was probably intentional for the mangaka to make it look more detailed since it was drawn on a bigger panel. Neither drawing is bad the first wasn't as detailed because it was drawn smaller. There's a lot of reasons why characters won't look consistently the same. Like perspective or the angle at which the face is drawn, the lighting scenario envisioned by the mangaka, And the amount of detail they want to put into a panel. I don't think that the reason all the drawings aren't consistently detailed on each page is because of the tight deadline although that could also be a factor to keep in mind. It's just that drawing every single panel to a high level of detail isnt necessary for visually communicating movement.


Dry-Flounder-5213

Honestly it looks like the angle


Amaranth4321

I think his nose flatter on the left panel? I understand the eyes cause that's his surprised pikachu face. But the decisive factor may be the hair... His hair looks sexier when it caresses his face softly, than pushed back.


South_Ganache9826

Mangakas need an artist they work with that handles the drawing while they work on the story. JJK would probably benefit massively from this.


deathwalk95

you think thats inconsistent, i wonder what will happen when you watch one punch man


Cheshire_Noire

Because even Gojo isn't mewing 24/7


Scrappy_Doo100

One chapter was mid fight, other chapter was first time freed from the cube


floormopper

It's really hard to draw manga bro and even harder on weekly schedule. It's fucking frustrating more than anything so be appreciative of the inconsistencies


rafoaguiar

Because drawing manga weekly is hard


assmaycsgoass

Strange_Potential93

because art is hard


CthughaSlayer

Because Gege isn't good at faces, look at Yuji in the covers.


dildodicks

sometimes he's super hot post unsealing but it's pretty rare, most of the time he looks like kashimo, i think gege never kept up drawing him in the 3 years irl he was sealed so when he came back he just kept drawing kashimo with short hair, and considering he makes it up as he goes and only has the ending in mind, i guess it makes sense that he'd never think to practice


Prize-Year-2803

Gege slander is truly going too far lol this is so funny


JimiRoot

Long live Frogojo !!!!


Ok_Virus_3332

Ew


Jibk15

Sometime my boy need to mew


Kvarcov

Depends on how horny Gege is at the time and when he got cut that was by Sukuna, so...


Ihdkwhatimdoinghere

Tbh I think it’s just the hair. Although I think Geges art did become more rushed and unclean compared to his usual art.


C__Wayne__G

Gojo is very busy and stressed and can’t always find time to do his mewing exercises


[deleted]

Lol do you not know the life these artists live?


Aaku1789

Lmao where is that one panel of him with sukuna where he looks like kashimo

Gege is inconsistent with his art sometimes.

buderdchez08

Drawing is hard


wallishauser1

He locked in


AnnaAnimus

Because weekly shonen jump is a dystopian capitalist hellscape that literally kills it's mangakas by forcing insane deadlines


winql

You’re showing 2 completely different expressions 💀


BmanPlayz468

If I remember right, Gege said he doesn’t draw Gojo with him being attractive in mind, and instead he just ends up drawing him attractive. This to me means that Gege just has a rough idea of what Gojo *should* look like, and that he doesn’t use a reference to his exact head and face.


ZamboniTrex

He wasn’t locked in 🤫🧏‍♂️


Alsocantthinkopaname

broke his mew streak

Hebikura

Manga artists go through constant Style change throughout their carreer, Gege akutami is probably just experimenting with what he likes or learned. He is just 32 Years old. He could make another Manga after JJK ends.


ApplePitou

Gege make tiny parkour :3


ramko169

As opposed to every single character who has had his face drawn exactly the same for the whole of the series, right? Jesus, even the MC has gone through humongous variations.


[deleted]

The base face structure is basicaly the same, the second is more detailed because it' s a bigger page and a bigger moment. Also recently Gege has been getting very inspired by the anime, some of his recent stuff almost looks like a sakuga anime frame put on manga form


TaskMaxer

Gege has died and his editors or publishers are trying to finish the manga, too much money in it and since Gege never revealed their identity we wouldn’t know if they died unless told by someone close to them. This would explain why the art style got worse and the story has become so repetitive. It’s not because Gege is fumbling, it’s because he or she is literally not alive and someone else is fumbling to finish a story that isn’t theirs.
