What the FUCK went wrong? Gen1 has a visually cohesive and modern style, with the entire generation maintaining a consistent brand guidelines in design. Iconic, relatively simple designs (except Kiara, who has the worst design).

Gen 2 is ALL OVER THE fucking place and don't look like they belong to the same generation at all. They look like a bunch of indies. The main offenders here are Sana and Kronii.

>Sana
My god, how did this get approved. Design looks straight out of 2003, the little spiral on her head is retarded. The stupid orange worm thing looks like a MS paint drawing. Redo the weird eyes and get rid of the stupid head baubles. The colour scheme is totally off, too.

>Kronii
FIX THE FUCKING LEGS. This is CLAMP tier bullshit, she has slenderman spooky skeleton legs that look totally out of proportion and way too thin. AIR VENTS? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Straight out of a KEY visual novel from 2005. The EYES. Oh my god the EYES are so jarring when compared to EN1's nice uniform modern anime eyes.


Ceres and Mumei look worthy of EN1's standard and fit in with the overall EN brand aesthetic. Baels's colour scheme is visual vomit but at least the art style is on-brand. Overall the awful mishmash of colours across the gen are absolute shit compared to EN1's clear colour denominations though.

hololive knows the end isn't terribly far away (for western vtubers, not their own agency in particular), so they're just phoning it in at this point

Gura's design is dog shit

Retard and literally opposite is true. Her design is a large part of why she has the highest amount of subscribers in the world for a vtuber. Instantly iconic and recognisable. Easy to draw. Clear iconography. Modern, sleek.

Plz undastand, barracudas are contrarians

EN1 Anime designs vs EN2 Gacha design

[Anonymous No.]

Don't care, better than NIjiEN

[Anonymous No.]

It's just new and you're not used to it. Everyone is a critic.
People kept saying the same thing about Nijisanji EN's designs but now I see people comparing this new HoloEN gen with NijiEN and saying the ones from Nijisanji look better.

tl;dr some retard that doesn't know shit about design pretends to know about design

typical day on vtroll

I genuinely don't know why they don't just have the same artist and a good rigger doing every member in a gen. I know it would take longer but it would avoid this mishmash issue.
They either got lucky with Holomyth or they actually gave a shit in the planning process because it was a new endeavor.

Gen2 looks like an evolution in Anime style periods, from oldest to newest space>time>chaos>civilization>nature

None of this will really matter anyways. I also initially thought that Irys would stick out amongst Myth but once she started collabing I never noticed it.

People will cry about the designs today but will forget about everything as soon as they debut.

Gura is popular because of pedos and nothing else.

You're giving them too much credit

[Anonymous No.]

>>8069211
I wasn't giving them credit, that was meant to be a dig at how dissimilar they all are. Would be kinda neat though if they thought about that but I know they didn't.

because it's a terrible idea, you absolute mongoloid. unless you wanna defend first gen noriopro designs are, but you won't

Explain to me why it would be a terrible idea.

>>8069380
He gave you the example of Noripro, maybe look it up.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8069380
it's fucking obvious. you're putting a single person in charge of the complete art design, which means you're gambling it all on one dude, either they're completely successful or flop big time. business 101, you utter retard, diversify your risk

Hololive designs have been on a downward trend since Gen 5. Prove me wrong.

They can still disapprove of a design if it goes shit you idiot.

Sana is really a mess, her clothes don't match her skin tone at all. Hair is ok though, if we take off the unnecessary assessories.
I like Kronii's design, might seem bad at first glance but you get used quickly. I agree that her legs are a bit strange but we won't be seeing them during streams anyway.
Fauna is fine, she looks like she came straight away from nijisanji, but nothing terrible.
Rrat looks too childish even for her character, but might be my own personal taste.
No complaints about owl.

this is why you're posting your worthless opinions instead being successful. you can't even grasp the basics of how shit actually works.

Do you have actual brain damage? the decision to approve of a given design lies with management regardless of how many artists were commissioned. Being a sperg doesn't make you right by default.
