Ah. Google showed it as Watashi no Ashinaga Ojisan for some reason. That is pretty damn ugly though. Makes you question what they were thinking.


While the proportions where still off, it was a lot better/more natural in the manga.





OT: Not the worst by any means overall, but from what I' recall the chins in Toradora really bad sometimes.

Hidamari Sketch, in true Shaft fashion tends to look bland at best, hideous or incomprehensible at worst.

Shaft in general really needs to stop relying on unmoving plaid and trying to mix photo-realistic things in animated scenery. It just doesn't look good.

Also the faces in Hidamari Sketch aren't wide enough.

Objection. I never said I hated Hidamari Sketch. It's definitely one of the more endearing slice of life shows I've watched, more likable than K-ON imo. I have nothing but respect for Metapod-sensei.

In fact I think her wideface character designs go well with the show, much more so than in Madoka. I know in the latter it's meant to create a contrast with the show's dark tone, but it's just so hard to take seriously.

It's just everything else that looks bad. Shaft is the only studio that can get away with being cheap and lazy, they just have to call it an art style.

Right - this may sound like I am insulting you but I am genuinely curious.

Do you know what bland actually means? Because Shaft's art style is anything BUT bland - literally it is probably one of the least 'bland' styles. That doesn't make it good(or bad) since style is about the most subjective thing you can have in terms of art and anime, but by no metric does Shaft ever make things which look bland.

Also - Hidamari Sketch is what, 8 years old at this point? Shaft's style has changed a fair bit since then. Hell I wouldn't even call Hidamari Sketch a good example of Shaft's art style as much as it is a good example of their laziness?

Sayonara zetsubou sensei looks so unique yet it's not technically complex a lot of the time and has a lot of time-saving techniques in it. But on the other side it has episodes which look so different from any other show...

Another quick point since you mentioned Shaft being lazy and calling it style - yes Shaft can be lazy and it has ruined shows they have worked on, but that doesn't mean their entire style is. Coming up with creative ways to visualize things is not laziness, in fact it's quite the opposite and shows that they are willing to stretch out beyond the generics of their medium.

Unfortunately. It's difficult for me to watch something if I find the art style unappealing. It took months for me to finally start Utena because I couldn't stand the color scheme. I eventually got past that, and it's one of my favorites now. I had similar issues with Ping Pong.

I try not to let my taste in art get in the way anymore.

It's not necessarily inherently awful, I think it would probably be fine for a straight up comedy series like Nichijou or Lucky Star. But in an ecchi series....I mean...

just because they put a bunch of animation quirks doesn't make their art styles not bland, if anything it just shows how much they're trying to mask how dull and lazy they are. Hidamari especially because often times (especially in the school scenes) they don't even bother to put in a background. Then there's the background characters.



Call it what you want, minimist, simplistic. Either way, it's only not boring to look at when the shaftiness isn't trying to disorient the viewer.

No - by the very definition of fucking bland adding animation quirks and such will make something not bland. How do you not understand this, it's like how something isn't generic if it adds enough stuff which makes it something you can differentiate from generic. You really just don't understand how style is created...like, at all.

Also the scene you linked can be found in a lot of comedy/sol anime. Do you also call Penguindrum's art style bland because they often use a lot of white space and have no background characters?

I don't care what you like or dislike - I do care that you are misusing words to an insane degree to justify your own saltiness about Hidamari Sketch.

Kill La Kill is a good example of the principle that after a certain point, the more skin you show, the less sexy something is. Also see Nicki Minaj.

Besides the clothes, I do like the oldschool-throwback art style. (Besides that emo "data collecting" guy, who looks like a Bleach reject.)
