I refuse to watch any anime he's involved in
His character designs makes me want to puke and makes my eyes bleed

Here's a handy dandy guide on what role a character plays in a Hirai show:

Main Character: Big eyes with just as big puils, young, circular faces

Side Character: Small, almost squinty eyes, chiseled faces

Hope that helps on picking a waifu/husbando.

Great designs I'd say its unique to him but using yuki aiba's design on so many other characters feels so repetitive.A more diverse way of representing characters would be nice.

As a previous post stated, His earlier designs were more kickass. Scryed had the badass duo of Kazuma and Ryuho that and the early characters had more diverse kind of looks from the really over the top ugly and the beautiful people group which even Gundam Seed in its first incarnation had a few surprisingly good ones too.
