This and the next page is a recurring Gag Manga Biyori meme. You can see another instance of it in post #3332378, and the very end of post #1163858 (Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5arIQP37rOs)

I'm wondering if I should make a tag for it. Best I can find so far on pixiv is either 'Sword Master Yamato' or 'Masoppu', but I'm not really sure which is best (or if the latter even counts).

Okay, I've now found what seems to be a sub of the gag manga biyori anime: https://youtu.be/gakbGKfESI0?si=179itkrmtU8huD5I&t=1500

Masoppu is basically a seperate joke from the first part of the sword master yamato gags, no need to include it. This comes from the second part, which focuses on Sword Master Yamato's abrupt cancellation. the author's given three pages to resolve numerous plot lines and defeat four remaining boss tier characters, resulting in 3 pages of insanity with everyone desperately expositing away the remaining planned story beats and getting one-shot.

I'm thinking probably the best tag is to bundle in the larger scene (a whole parody is seen in Yuusha Wan-wan above) and call it something like sword_master_Yamato_3-page_ending_(meme). It's clunky as hell, but it's the best I can think of - other suggestions are welcome.

I've been wondering if people who draw this stuff have killed people before, how do you draw so good?

There's a lot of material to be studied, if you were to search for cross-sections of human body. In fact, they have those in certain museums and medical faculties and you can donate your body to science to be preserved in any state you want (only in certain countries), so.

But 'so good' is relative, being even this picture still has small number of anatomical errors. The cross-section for fingers, for example, shows too thin of a bone (well, maybe artistic's choice for whatever this creature is) and not enough ligaments to move it. Another point to nitpick is there's no visceral fat visible wrapped around the intestines nor any trace of the connective tissues usually securing them in wrapped form.

Agreed. Researching a bit of anatomy should be part of any self-respecting artist.
Working as hospital attendant there are very few artist that make you think artist has actually studied or worked with living subjects. I can recall only once maybe getting feeling "shit this person has been part of autopsy and not just watching tv".
Not that it would be bad thing. Actual anatomy when you go under epidermis is not pleasant to eyes for average person.
Not to mention how exhausting it would be to draw correctly.
