From what I read Junichi Nakahara and other artists were developing artstyles for manga and illustration but the rightwing military control and the war hampered that, this is why I think Manga would have been a decade ahead if the Second world war never happened and a different thing happens to the Japanese empire where in it disintegrates later on instead of being dismantled.
