So, you know how some manga have a certain art style, right? And as a manga goes on, the art style changes for better or worse? Well, right here you can comment on the art style of certain manga and share your opinion on when you started to like it more or less.
I'll use Bleach as an example. When I first read it, the artwork gave me a headache. I didn't think that it became good until Volume 17. And then after Volume 30, everyone looked...taller. I guess from Volume 17-30, the artwork was like the default 4:3 aspect ratio that TVs have, and then Volume 31-onwards, it changed to that stretched-out 16:9 Widescreen mode.

Quote from tactics
Just because someone's head was chopped off doesn't mean they're dead. That's just silly.
Tenjou Tenge's art in the beginning was rather lackluster compared to that of the latest chapters. I heard that Ah! My Goddess went through an art change as well.

Bleach has its ups and downs.... I guess it depends if it's a splash page or not lol (I love his splash pages...)
Naruto I think got worse... >_> (I really loved this manga in the beginning.)
But I love Fujiryu-sensei. :3 His art changes all the time. It's most obvious when you look at the first and last volumes of Houshin Engi. I really didn't think it could get any better after Sakuratetsu Taiwahen... then WaqWaq comes out and "O_O". He changed his style and now Shiki, I could hardly believe he changed it so much again (and yet you can tell it's all the same guy.) He really impresses me so much. ^-^
YuGiOh changed a lot too from the beginning. I think it all looks great, but he developed his art so much. o-o I'm interested in what Takahashi-sensei created before YGO~
I named like all SJ series.... I guess they get a lot of young artists anyway...
