>>3889793Dude found a style that made him stand out, and now has one of the most iconic anime/manga entries that is respected world wide yet doesn't fall in with the generic sea of anime/manga that already exists.
The entire U.S JDM scene worships his series. Is the art great? Nah. Is it iconic? Definitely. Can he probably draw better than that? I'd say so. Mangakas get overloaded with work and thus simplify art to make it easier to draw the same shit over and over again.
He's not the best, no, but he has a career doing what he loves to do and an art style that a certain niche group of people will recognize as his at a quick glance. That's the goal most here want to achieve. If you're planning to be the -best artist ever- you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Being alright and getting noticed is the best 99% of artists can hope for.
I'd bet he's very happy, and doesn't sit around bitching about self-promoting or how the studies he's doing show no real improvement. Dude isn't concerned with any of that, and that's the mindset all of us should strive for as artists.
Just do your thing nigga, fuck what you heard.
