Each to their own method.

For me, I don't care as long as the manga turns out to be good.

Almost all manga is made by multiple contributors. While the person whose name goes on the manga is sometimes both writer and visual artist, background artists and editors and printers and readers all contribute to and improve manga in their own way. So I guess my vote goes to multiple authors.

Like the first 4 who replied in this thread, it doesn't matter how the manga is worked on, as long as it's good.

It really does depend... ;/

Some mangakas have the most gorgeous art to ever exist, but their storytelling is as good as a newborn's. Then some mangakas have the best stories and plots to ever come into existance, but their art fails to support it.

Personally, I would prefer mediocre art over a mediocre plot (as long as the art is tolerable and I couldn't piss better art in the snow), but sometimes maybe having two authors split up the work isn't bad. (See: OHBA Tsugumi and OBATA Takeshi). Who am I to complain against an awesometastic plot AND sexy art?

Just dislike those who are god drawers but fail at storytelling, & think that their art will make up for the shitty storyline. DO. NOT. THINK. SO. (See: shoujo & shounen)

As long as the story & art are good - I don't care.

If two authors are on the same wave, that's the best eyes
