Manga vs Anime?

There's a hell of a lot of manga/anime based art on dA.
My manga experience extends no further than the Gibli Studio releases and old school stuff like Akira so i don't pretend to know all the sub genres or terminology but below is a selection some different stuff that to me seems to come from that kind of background.
Check out the individual artists' dA profiles too, some stunning stuff there.

Focus on Laflaneuse

Laflaneuse has a very wide and varied output on dA but the selection below are some of an ongoing series that has really caught my eye recently.
Hinted at human forms, some of the best natural looking grunge i have seen and some beautifully subtle desaturated, yet warm, colours. Lovely stuff!

Blinded

So often it's the eyes that draw you into a person, that drag you into a photo.
What happens when you take them out of the equation?
What are your eyes drawn to?

Fore and Aft

I'm not a trained photographer or schooled artist but to my mind these shots perfectly exemplify how to choose a background that compliments the object of the viewer's focus. All three brilliantly pick out elements of the models and match them with their surroundings, beautiful stuff.
