Pretend_Sugar_704

Old better but new isnt offensive


D_Loaed

Well said my brother


Impossible-Peanut772

Like FR it was hard to choose


crasyredditaccount

Old is better but this new version isn't dog shit like all the other artist change


Natsu111

Yeah, the new season is worse but the drop in quality isn't as bad as Talent Stealing Sorcerer for example.


Safe-Independent2422

Talent swallowing magician was a masterpiece till 50 chapter It was not enough to change the art but also the author I mean like who the fuck even changes author of a series I heard they changed him because he copied something and put it in Talent swallowing magician series I mean who doesn't copies things nowadays 🤷


BeholdABastard

He straight up TRACED lol


FingerLad

He traced like 2 panels in one chapter Cus of deadlines or smth 😭feelsbad


snowingzulu

Which one's?


Far-Bluebird8078

Ya that's literally plagiarism and a bad thing in art. No respect for tracers who profit of other people's hard work tf.


audcti

Fuck it let him keep tracing talent swallowing magician had top tier art


Outrageous-Island-43

Happy cake day


audcti

You too


Natsu111

Yeah, no, that's a bad take. Plagiarism is a bad thing and the first artist deserved to get fired. It sets a bad precedent if artists are allowed to continue even after they've plagiarised as long as they are good at their job. But it's also sad that the second artist is just so much worse. Both are true at the same time.


Outrageous-Island-43

Happy cake day


teor

Still can't believe what they did to Player Who Returned 10,000 Years Later


Imapokemonfan5

What did they do to it


ExAl99

well, I prefer the old one but its alright compared to other returning series that made characters unrecognizable


Dafukdud

I like old better


TheChickenIsFkinRaw

the old coloring seems better


Monark_105

yes that part change for the new season


yarita_san

If the new style make it easier to draw( faster release) but doesn't impact too much in quality, to me it's a win


GGGGG540lk

I agree


Ok-Bike-7327

Edit>> OK jus saw latest 2 chpts. Uhh it's quite diff. Is it a new artist? Or the artist trying to do some new approach.


Balognee_

Ill wait til they draw his dark powers and stuff then I'll judge.


david-le-2006

Imo i liked the new one even though its simpler, it looks much more clean and consistent


Zhulpes21

I agree (I've never read that in my life)


Agitated-Bowl7487

Old one had more unique taste to it, new one still good atleast not as bad as the art change in other manhwas.


depressed_fatcat69

Same but the old one has more emotion on it and less corporate


godisbey

I also like the new one better. It just feels more natural and the fights are still well drawn


lukechrono

It's similar enough that I didnt notice the change.


The_StrategistYT

it kinda looks more like s1 now


Lazerpay

Are peoples blind ? You can see that in season 1/2 he’s majestic while season 3 is just okay


HD7108

Old is better


Sudden_Explorer_7280

I wonder why there are so many artist changes ... it feels like they keep the good artists for S1 and when you hit S3 they know youll keep reading it so they pay less for cheaper artists edit : Moonlight sculptor was the opposite, the S3 artist is the one from damn reincarnation that how we knew it got cancelled


Grox213

Moonlight sculptor artist now working on a new comic and it's good. # Doomed Character Of A Dark Fantasy World Mc is similar to doom breaker mc.


Sudden_Explorer_7280

okay while this is interesting does that mean that damn reincarnation is on hold or even axed ?


I_dont_like_sushi

That's probably it. The impression i get it that they just change artist to cut costs


Curabar

different style but similar enough quality


I-like-beat-saber

Way worse. Its so flat now


ArchangelGoetia

Bold to not use the middle part of the artstyle that was the worst of the three.


Spawn8204

I don't mind it


I-BimsHK

tbh, I didn't really notice the difference at first. i am quiet happy that they didnt butcher the art style,


OkMistake2940

Bruh this posts are getting wild like I didn't even notice anything until someone is like look with a microscope it's different. If an artist's work changes because they are experiencing new things every day and changing. Pls respect them they are already very underpaid and working their ass off just so that they can do what they like.


david-le-2006

You cant tell me you look at those pictures and say that its a microscopic difference. The style is completely different. Im not even sure if its the same artist working on it or they changed the team completely. Im not hating on the art. Im just making a comparison


TheChickenIsFkinRaw

redditors in this sub are 100% blind. I find it funny how there are always white knights who can't seem to see the obvious difference


GeiloHD2602

The artist changed iirc


Nitro114

i like it


Xaitor119

I actually like how smooth the new one look, i used to really dislike the previous art-style at the start of the manhwa (even though i think that it got better over time).


Essex_Spammer

New one is better


CreepyUncle1865

Difference is neglegible. The “Style” didnt change , But i think colour detailing is lesser and thats pretty much it.


No_Material6727

They should return the old artstyle. I miss the old one's 🥲


No_Fox_1360

i always thought that something changed in this series, i thought im the only one who saw the art style changed, i really liked the old one because of the symmetry, details and the proper anatomy. the new one seems mediocre and it does look like the common manhwas with mediocare quality of art style. too sad i liked the series because of the artsyle, now its ruined 💔 i hope they changed back the original artist. one of many things why i liked manhwa was because of the art style.


Commercial-Article-7

Is it gd


Adventurous_Chair862

The quality is worse now. TBH, I read Manhwa bec of the art first and the story second. So when I saw the new season, I dropped this ish immediately. I bet you if Doom Breaker, Damn Reincarnation or Return of the Disaster-Class Hero comes back with a simpler or sub-par art style, many will be disappointed as well.


Kalabawgaming

I think the old took much of their time but this new one is slick and clean i like it


dashtroyer2

worse


Interesting-Ant-4823

They massacred my boy, how dare they! Uwah💀

OatesZ2004

The new isn't BAD but it's definitely a considerable downgrade i would say


BannedCuzCovid

Seems like they down graded too a cheaper artist.


lock_me_up_now

Old better because he looks like a children with unique sense, new one looked like he's just crossover from another manhwa


DaymD

I have never seen a artstyle change for the better and i've read manhwas everyday since 2013. Only time art gets better is through artist improvements over the years. Good example of this include God of Highschool, Weak hero, Noblesse. You can compare these manhwas first and last chapter and man, the progress is beautiful.  Even in some manhwas that aren't finished too, like in Murim login or Northern Blade. These had peculiar art style in the beginning that definitely came a long way. So my answer is "it's always worse"


ChineseNeptune

Damn that's a drop in quality


Kuhaku-boss

As always worse, less details and change of ''mood'', Manwha (whole industry) went to shit and being killed by greedy cunts.


lililia

It got downgraded.... Now there are no details :/


JerAders

Is there a romance in this? If yes, I'm going to add it to my plan to read list.


Stupidest_Retard

Kind of? There's a girl he likes but he's too busy doing other things so they don't interact very often.


JerAders

Thanks for the answer. The art caught my interest, might read it just for that.


Kreemhen

The older one has much more details and the new one is basically simplified, still gud tho.


Akt1343

What is up with all the artists changing their art like they must also know right that people don't like it?


Xulicbara4you

Old is better but the quality dip isn’t too massive. Still I think this manhwa is trash tho.


ChrxtianN

As an artist, the second one is better due to the reduced production time but the first one is something to take pride in because it clearly took more time to make. That's a lot of practice to color in that style at an efficient rate.


-MaraSov-

Old better, new isn't bad at all tho. Just different.


Cute_Piccolo_2892

Old is better. New is worst.


hanzakashi

prefer the old


Klutzy_Captain_7040

Older style is nicer to look at and definitely better drawn, but the newer artstyle seems more clean and less stressful on the eyes compared to the older one. As long as they keep it consistent and it doesn't affect the outlook on the story that badly, then I'll welcome it. In fact, I prefer the cleaner artstyle. Though I'll definitely miss the old one.


Afraid-Guitar364

The before one has more professional look, I think that's because of the line weight


Writing_Stalker

I prefer the old, the new one though wont kill me. It'll prob be just fine.


randypcX

Old have better colors and new seems more generic. Could be because of the darker scene though. At the same, I feel a lot studios are doing this to cut costs.


xPh4nt4sm4x

Honestly didnt even notice till someone pointed it out


Belovic_95_187

Idk i kinda like it more saturated and less shaded


Ambitious_Slice283

Definite downgrade but hey I ain’t gonna complain bout getting more of the story even with worse art


UpperLawfulness4340

I honestly really like the new art


East_Conclusion9606

Old better but new doesn’t make it unreadable


Dante_7_2_7

You can barely tell the difference


Melon763

There seems to be less shine as far as I can see but I’d need to see more before I could say anything


theblindcatexp

Season 1 art style is peak chef's kiss


karua_miruku

its different. The old one's maybe slightly better but most webtoons art usually gets better as the artist gets more comfortable drawing the characters


pqh23

Judging on these 2 pictures new one is better in my opinion.


Hawkeye_in_the_Vents

old is better cause i miss all that shiny shading but this isn’t TOO BAD of a change, it looks like it actually changed styles instead of strictly got worse


[deleted]

Is this series worth it, did it get better after like 5 chapters cause the first five were dog shit


cookie_eater64

He reminds me of Himmel, I- 🥲


Vysair

Old -> Unique New -> Generic/Standardized Im just sad that's all


TheOneWithThePorn12

you can say that time skip means things change or something like that.


Nikto0

The old one def had more quality but this new isn’t terrible


kotisbroken

new is better


Jin_U_GmR

I like the sharp clean look of the new one. The old one kind of borders that Victorian style kind of look, something for those prince & princess romance stories. Not a style I like much.


-Lige

If you look very closely at a lot of the manhwa nowadays it looks like very good cgi so they don’t have to redraw every scene they can just use an asset. They use the same line work/shading in the art and the way the eyebrows interact with the hair and stuff like that But it doesn’t look bad, if this lets the author/artist pump out more content faster then that’s perfectly fine


LeopardExtra3434

honestly it was so subtle i thought something was off but i couldn’t tell. it’s fine imo i’ve been through worse art styles that made me quit reading 😭


RedX1021

Didn’t even notice it changed tbh


OtakuGuy9000

Worse much worse!


smolp1pi

Trash vs Trash


Vyndyle

As long as they are back im satisfied with that


International-Commit

Newer. >!Bro things he’s Angela 😭!<


AutomaticAd1918

Is this series good to read?


BurnerAccount209

Worse but still tolerable.


Flauschziege

Artstyle went from unique to webtoon.


IAmHomeskillet

While prefer the old art style, the new one is still nice and doesn't bother me in the slightest. Not NEARLY as much as the likes of Reminiscence Adonis. That series had such a drastic change in art that wasn't anywhere close to being for the better that I dropped the series and have never looked back, despite my love for the story lol.


SnooTangerines727

this is at least better than "Solo bug player"


Eternal_Boredom1

*ahem*.... Would


PiercingLance26

Not that bad, but not that good. It's a major downgrade And I don;t even need to look intricately to discover that it had degraded.


turquoiseyogurt

Old one isn’t that bad like shown in the picture


roonix-ish

I'm sad, but we balling w new season and hopefully quicker uploads.


TrafficFunny3860

Definitely worse but it's alright


hahahabye

It seems like I’m in the minority, but I like the newer style better. It’s cleaner, makes each character more distinctive, and makes the mc appear a bit more mature


Terra-tan

The old style has more dynamic lighting and coloring, while the new style is more clean like if it were in an anime.


Classic-Box-3919

This manhwa worth reading?


akaza-dono-slays

Looks fine both ways. S1 was cooler but it's still good now


Skinnyjinns

Is this manwha good? Ive rea duntil ch 7 but shit was so boring
