TogashI, Yabuki, Iwashiro.

 

[Kadir0]

Bleach has so many amazing character designs, Ulquiorra was my favorite.

 

[Nakura]

I think mine might be Grimmjow (Bleach).

Koro sensei

<< this octopus for those who don't know.

Ah, a simple, but memorable design!

TogashI, Yabuki, Iwashiro.

I was thinking more towards actual characters, but if I was to go that route, then I'd say Kubo, Horikoshi, and maybe Oda.

Hungry Joker was a generic battle manga.
The Promised Neverland is a mystery.
Wut.

Hungry Joker is more then just a battle manga it is also considered: comedy, supernatural, and scifi. To promise Neverland is also more then just a mystery manga it falls into the genre categories of: horror, supernatural, and also scifi. The point your trying to make has little ground to stand on in terms of classification also lets be honest every manga that has any type of battle that happens more then three times regardless would be called a generic battle manga in one of it's other classifications.

Oh my god, are you serious right now?
Hungry Joker was a generic battle manga.
Don't argue such ridiculous semantics based on MAL tags or whatever you're trying to do.

The point is; HJ and TPN are not the same genre. They attempt to do entirely different things.

 

[Kadir0]

I am not sure but i think Hungry Joker fits more of Dr.Stone than TPN.

hard to pick a favorite, I like Hisoka, L, Kakashi, Zoro, Rock Lee, Tsuyu, Hyunckel, Todoroki, Giorno...

and Yugioh is a WSJ title, I loved the design of so many monsters to count

 

[TyVip]

Bringing Bleach into favorite character design isn't fair. There are so many good designs from Bleach. Might as well make a list

Stand out designs to me:
Bleach: Yachiru Unohana, Mayuri.

Naruto: Zabuza

One Piece: Crocodile

Shokugeki: Rindou Kobayashi, Ryou

All the Jojo from part 2-6, and Tequila Joseph.

 

[Nakura]

Zoro's design only reached it's full potential when Tanjirou from KnY cosplayed as him, haha.

 

[Ecchi Boy]

Tsuyu, Mina, Ochaco, Momo, Kyoka, Mukuro, Toriko, Coco, Josuke, Kira (Jojo), Yusuke, Yoruichi, Seiya, Taikoubou, Sasuke, Uni, Haru, Suzuki, Chrome, Killua, Kurapika, Chrollo, and Shizuku

 

[TyVip]

Josuke, Kira (Jojo),

You're missing Tequila Joseph .

 

[Mammo]

Tsuyu, Mina, Ochaco, Momo, Kyoka, Mukuro, Toriko, Coco, Josuke, Kira (Jojo), Yusuke, Yoruichi, Seiya, Taikoubou, Sasuke, Uni, Haru, Suzuki, Chrome, Killua, Kurapika, Chrollo, and Shizuku

I like Amano's art when it was rougher was less detailed, I think I liked the art in the Mario Kart spinoff that was done by Ishojo guy more than the main series

Same thing with Kubo and Bleach, I liked his earlier characters' designs and Zombie Powder's designs more than the later stuff

 

[Ecchi Boy]

I love Amano Current art style and I agree Zombie powder had god tier designs especially Wolfina

 

[SkerllyFC]

I ask the opposite. Which is the character design that inspires you to not read a manga? Like, the one you find unispiring and bland? For me by now it´s Asta. He really looks more like a supporting of terciary character, not so much the lead of his series

 

[Tamil]

-Gyro/Johnny (if that counts, if not then prob the main cast of Vento Aureo &/or Jolyne/Jotaro.)

-Four Heavenly Kings

-Tanjirou

-Chrollo
-Ging
-Doflamingo
-Killua
-Kenshiro
-Pompadour hairstyles (Jirou, Josuke, Sakuragi, etc)
-Most of the beast/creature designs in Toriko, especially the 8 kings
-Kaido

Did anyone really read Sporting Salt?

most of the memes we posted was stolen from Japanese sites they were ridiculing the artist mercilessly for days

it boggles my mind how the f*** did anyone think this was good enough to be published

Really? I loved Bleach's later designs, they always had a unique flair to them. Askin the flamboyant Sternritter and Mayuri's ever changing design always impressed me. Kubo's great sense of fashion was really cool too.

 

[Nakura]

I agree that Kubo's designs weren't as great towards the end. The Sternritter uniforms still looked really cool though.
