Do you mean the removal of square chins, excessive rounding of body parts, and general diminishing of visual age in all characters? If so, the author twinkified ALL the semes across ALL her series quite some time ago… and called it “a new art style” - one we didn’t ask for- and I suspect - one most of us didn’t appreciate.
I mean- I’m happy that she can draw body parts (like hands- especially hands) in correct proportions now, but… please leave the square chins alone author! Manliness won’t kill the semes! A lack thereof, might kill your fans ability to recognize at least half your characters though.
Yes, correct. Takano looked to be 25-30+ in the earlier chapters. Now he looks 16.
The newer artstyle does indeed look more polished, but at the expense of the character designs!!!
tbf it's been almost 20 years since the manga began so it's kind of understandable the artist got fed up with her old art style
do i like it though? nope but i cant do anything about it
Exactly they totally changed the vibe
Also... I can't believe they twinkified Tanako LOL.
