Is there a reason why in early ranma the girls are all drawn "animal like" with animal noses and facial features?
because all anime girls are cats.

It was the style at the time.
>>285219605I know something you don't know: That's drawn by Masako GotoOnly she ever drew anime like thatShe only worked on season 1 of Ranmahttps://www.furinkan.com/features/articles/director3.htmlHer style really sucks even though she obviously has copious drawing talent
>>285221378thanks anon, strangely deep animator lore. I guess that makes sense why it doesn't last too long in the anime.
>>285221378You don't really see these charts which compare animation directors across episodes anymore. Prolly cause every anime is just 1 cour now

Dead board
>>285219605The fuck are you talking about, schizo?
>>285219605You should watch Haikyuu if you want to see mild anthropomorphic features on characters' designs
>>285219605I think early Ranma chapters had characters' noses like that in certain panels/angles, like just a way to depict noses without either getting super detailed or giving them a completely flat/blank face. It doesn't seem weird to me for either this series or other anime from around the same era.
