I don't think you are hearing me, and so I would have to say the same to you MMM.
The art to me looks like something I would see in a manga, and I would not call it "unmistakably Western".
At this point I think I will just stop and say, there is no point in us continuing our discussion, since I have made up my mind, and you have yours, and I would rather get back to studying Japanese
Although I think we could both agree that once again we can see just how subjective art really is (If it is in fact "art" to you lol)
