Do you prefer more abstract or more realistic character designs?
if i wanted realism i wouldn't be watching fucking cartoons
>>284514327Bottom. Modern anime is a mistake.
naturally
>>284515008Kill yourself moetard
>>284514327Abstract. It's art, have fun with it.
>>284514327generally i prefer more abstract, however, between OP's image i think the top looks worse.maybe picking a 'team' is wrong, and anime should be judged on a case by case basis. different styles work better or worse for different subject matter, after all.
>>284514327More stylized, but in this image the "realistic" ones look better
>>284515118Akagi...
I like Trigun I don't think everything should look like Trigun But if it was what anime looked like most of the time, that would be great
>>284514327Bottom one is in the uncanny valley for me
>>284514327Bible Black is the greatest work of art ever produced by human hands. I'm dead serious. Nothing has come close to the sheer forbidden, primordial titiliation it invokes. The craftsman ship to draw those perfect-beyond-belief female bodies being ravaged in such stylized yet realistic detail should be cherished for all of time. I wish for more but I know that the appeal of it should remain in the 2000's.
>>284514327Why is Takeuchi like this?
>>284514327>>284515118Do not conflate abstraction for lack of detail or style. Akagi is actually the perfect example of this, where Anime and Manga tried to appeal to broader audiences by softening features, while also reducing cost of animation, Akagi went in the exact opposite direction. Harder, darker edges, moodier expressions, facial features that would be more difficult to animate on model, shafows and cross hatching that would be expensive and time consuming to translate.Fate stay/slop is just a symptom of the Japanese race to the bottom when it comes to commercialized literature. They've been doing this in everything from AI translators, to pure art style.
Top became common because of Budget.
>>284514327Bottom. Top looks like shit.
>>284518861God, Ryougi is literally perfect.
>>284514327Top has been the standard for so long that complaining now is pure pedantry
>>284514327I prefer noses
>>284521145That's not pedantry
Both are kino, but your top pic is neither, just bad.
I want to fuck saeki more than I want to fuck saber
>>284519107Do not conflate ufo's slop with OG fate kino. All of the VN's art was made by a single person, and he very much had a distinct style. It's also much easier to avoid side profile cringe in a set of CGs.
>>284521280Takeuchi's original style and deen's adaptation were streamlined, but both managed to maintain some facial features.
>>284521280>he very much had a distinct styleYeah, making every girl into another saberface.
>>284521335That's his later style that you can see in commercialized slop like FGO, and yeah it does suck. Ufo took its character designs more from this than the VN.
I remember when I was naive enough to think /a/ was a place to seriously discuss art styles
>>284515118I kneel
Indeed I enjoy Realistic
>>284514327It doesn't have to be one or the other, shit is shit and that design is just unacceptably horrendous, there is no style to it, it's simply bad
>>284514327saber looks like fucking phineas
>>284515118I refuse to watch this show purely because of aesthetic reasons. I am petty and superficial and will never change.
>>284521275That's natural. Saeki has sex appeal.
>>284518861Why does Touko need 8 clocks in her office? All the ticking would make me go nuts.
>>284521280>>284521315Her nose is too small for her face and too far to the side. Also her nasal bridge is nonexistent?
>>284514327I thought Saber was just a title, why did her head turn into Excalibur itself?
>>284521377Oh wow, Incan't believe gatchaslop is reusing assets.
>>284521280>>284521315Those images aren't really profile pics like in the OP though.
>>284514327more realistic.abstract just feels lazy and often looks weird or like it's unfinished. Often it looks more like people have snuts instead of noses. Just look at MHA.
>>284521145What a stupid argument.If eating shit became standard, you are saying you shouldn't complain about it because it's "the standard"?
>>284526503Similar designs isn't asset reuse.
I like more realistic school of movement that are usually married to more realistic looking character models.But really I just like how they move.
>>284514327The DEEN-midpoint seems fine.
>>284527448Do you have a profile image to compare?
>>284521145>>284521280>>284521315>>284527448Did fifth century britons speak Latin, some sort of Celtic language, or both?
>>284527719Brittonic Celtic was the dominant language, though the elites also used Latin.
>>284528198>we could have had anglos and the french speak the same language and share a literatureVGH...
>>284528217Not really. Latin would have eventually died out in Britain after they were cut off from the Roman empire. Britain would have spoken a language similar to Welsh if the Anglo-Saxon invasions hadn't happened.
>>284528241>we could have had the entire isles speak celtic languages if not for the anglos and the normansVGH...
>>284527719Celtic towards Wales and Scotland.Germanic in what is called England these days.The Roman=French=Latin influence only came with William the Conqueror in 1066, so much later.
>>284528326Britain had been a Roman province for centuries until Roman rule ended in 410, so there were still Latin speakers in cities during the 5th century.
/a/ would rather be /his/ than talk about art. You could offer everyone here standing blowjobs from a virgin loli wives on the condition that they have a deep and insightful conversation about visuals and everyone would refuse.Amazing.
Saber's butt
>>284528364Why did England have no Arminius to crush the Roman invaders?They haven't recovered from 9 AC to this day.
>>284528389I love that copypasta about Boudica being the worst commander in written history, like, losing against an exhausted and undersupplied legion despite outnumbering them 10 to 1.
>>284528412I remember the time Boudica fought against goblins. (She has a lot of goblin porn.)
