Preferably art that is completely different to their style nowadays. Could be the beginning of a long series, could be a super early one.
Pic related is up for you all to guess.

Daisuke Igarashi. It's actually interesting to compare it to his more modern work. The differences are substantial, but both are unmistakably coming from the same man.

Not at all. I thought Love Hina was his peak. Now everything he does feels likemass-produced, computer-generated shales that happen to be modelled after the anime character archetypes with the highest approval rating.

He went full digital with UQ Holder and his art looked really flat in the first volumes,but it's quite good now

I am a fan of her work, but her art style has always been on the generic side. Her early 90s art looked very typical for gag manga of the time.

And when it comes to the mecha, it's also somewhat of a downgrade. Not just the design, but the quality of the drawings as well.

Another scene from volume 3.

prob his editors influence, technically he's mostly at the same level but his style has more mass appeal

I'm assuming this is Raita, but something about the faces looks oddly like Kitoh's style.

I think his designs have also gone downhill, regardless of digital stuff. He seems to have decided that spindly alien-looking things are the way to go for both humans and robots. Same goes for the Gothicmade design.
