I actually hate over the top character designs and I like the character designs of stuff like JJK, Kagurabachi, Tokyo Ghoul and CSM over something like My Hero Academia ,Gachiakuta, 90s deformed stuff like Slayers/Saber Marionette or most JRPGs. Don't get me wrong, the character designs in both are great for the shows they're in. Superheroes and fantasy characters need to stand out after all.But if Denji had super spikey hair or the devil hunters wore outlandish fashion, Chainsaw Man probably wouldn't have worked as well as it did.It's the fact that they are grounded and "basic" character designs that they paint a picture of pseudo-realism. Well, as real as you can get when they are around fighting bizarre looking demons.
I haven't seen an over the top character design in ages honestly.
We know, you made this thread already.Are you that desperate to have your opinion accepted? You can like whatever you like dude.
