With the release of Chainsaw Man's chapter 150, I think that Fujimoto's paneling style should be appreciated more. Through a repetition of long, vertical panels, Fujimoto always brings a nice sense of scale, flow, and oneness to his pages. Even when it comes to action sequences, these selection of panel choices seem almost effortless as they all appear to be the best choice possible.


How can I use his panelling as inspiration for your work? It's hard to always make the choice that you envision, especially when trying to capture a script. There's such a wide variety of panels to use. I believe that an artist will almost never be completely satisfied with what they've worked on. Despite this, it's best to think of panelling as a style as well; similar to how the way you draw characters is your own style, your ART STYLE.


Getting over the hump of frustration that is being a perfectionist trying to make every call the BEST CALL, it's fine to just give the okay to things in your story. Especially if it reflects the story you're trying to tell efficiently.
