Yeah, I get you. On one hand, yes, you're supposed to improve on the job which many artists do (look at say, Flame of Recca volume 1 versus the last one - it's like a different series!), but with so much pressure for output, it's difficult to invest the time. And tbh some of Isayama's issues are not so easily fixed, though even if he just got himself a spotter for the sketch-stage to go "HANDS TOO SMALL" or "HEAD ANGLE" it would do a lot.

AoT rocketed into fame way beyond what people expected. Hopefully he'll take a break before his next manga to work on his technical skills, if he doesn't have the time now.
It just bugs me when people confuse "rough style" with "bad technical skills". You can like his style while still admitting that he's not a particularly good artist, because he seriously...isn't.

yeah it bugs me too when people mistake lack of knowledge for style choice, because I am a professional artist. At least its sorta comforting to know some mistakes I make that are glaringly painfully obvious to me would be less so to the readers?? haha

yeah, ouch. I get your pain. For me, it comforts me as a non-professional artist: if his comic could make it on plot alone with shitty art, there is hope for people to not just read things because of the pretty.
