Maybe it's the pose they are standing in. In the Beautiful world character designs, they're standing kind of tilted to the side. The fact that they are standing straight forward staring at the camera looks kind of weird and bland. The noses and faces look strange because of the angle I think. They're all in the exact same pose so that makes it kind of boring. Maybe that's why these designs feel off. Very rarely are these characters going to be staring directly into the camera, so they'll probably look better on screen.
When I looked at the trailer for World Stars, the animation’s shading did look significantly better than in the promo art for the season. France’s hair was still a dark brown which is definitely something I could get used to (I mean, it does distinguish him that much more from the other male nations with semi-long hair). Though him and England still look REALLY young which is gonna take some adjustment considered France looked the oldest and most mature out of the Allies.
Edit: the artstyle looks better in the actual episodes imo Oh compared to the Beautiful World, the new artstyle looks so.. bland. Yes I've been saying this a lot now but I just can't unsee it And idk why but the new outfits look kind of boring too (not all of them tho). Maybe it's because they're just the same type of uniforms (idk the word) or that it's just the same color on each character (I can't explain.. ah sorry, none of this makes sense) And did England get a haircut or something? His hair looks shorter and also rounder Oh and finally a uniform(._.?) that isn't just the same type as all the others and not just the same color! Or is it bad..? Idk, I just prefer it to some other uniforms here.. But yes, France looks younger ._. Ah Russia's hair is annoying in this, but like you said, his face is cute. Oh, and his uniform is a little better than the "plain boring ones" (imo, ofc). Maybe it's the vest? ( *i'm so sorry i just can't speak good English right now* ._.) But yeah, he looks too small ._. China does look okay, yeah, but his head is too small, like you said, and his face looks a bit too baby-ish (like pretty much everyone in this), but his ponytail (i. d. k.) looks a bit too.. small? It looks like he has incredibly thin hair, or is it just me? But ah great video! It's nice to watch you rant, idk why cx
I agree with your stuff here, especially with France. He feels all wrong. Forget early 20s he could be a hecking teenager- he looks even younger in the trailers, same with England. (Though the hair works better there- I think I actually like the new color). On the other hand, Russia looks *much* better in animation. While the eyes look weird in the promo material, his face has been good in the clips we’ve got. I feel like America has had the best transition here. I think it’s because he already had a more youthful appearance, so when the art style got more round/young he went along more smoothly. I think that’s this whole thing- how well can you survive the roundening. I agree with you on Russia’s body being weird, but I actually have a problem overall where a lot of the waists are a bit too cinched?? I think it’s because the uniforms could be baggy and either had belts and/or coats that made the waists feel more natural, but now with all these tighter suits there’s no hiding it. Or maybe my personal gripes with small waists are overreacting and they’re fine idk.
It wasn't Hima, while the manga and story was done by him, the anime was adapted by studio Deen. If you are looking for the anime designer, that's Mariko Oka. I prefer BW as a season tho, art and all.
For French people (as a french) I guess it depends. I actually like France's dark blond hair. And for French people, it can depend on where in France. If you are southern French, you'll have more "Latin" (?) traits like darker hair and maybe darker skin tone, while northern French seems to be a but more complicated, they have more "Germanic" trait than southern French I guess, like lighter skin tone and hair? Then it also depends on region too, like people from Britanny will have more Celtic blood (?), those from Alsace will have more Germanic blood and those from Corsica will have more Latin blood. Those for overseas territories and regions are usually dark skinned, at least those that I know are. I can't speak for me since I'm mixed, and got a lot of northern African features too. But for my dad, who's born in "middle" france (northern-southern border isn't clear lol) is white as heck and used to have blonde hair that darkened over the year. Some in my French family have blond hair, other have a slight tan. It really depends. So France having blonde hair makes as much sense as him having Brown hair. Though I can agree that it keeps changing and is a little bit weird.
BW has the best art style and animation and even in the trailer it looks a bit different from that. the newer style isnt bad, i just prefer BW a lot more
The designs look different here, but hopefully the animation art style will be better than these concept art. I still think they’re better than the previous season art style 😳😳
Ох...Английский...Мои уроки английского, зачем же я вас пропускала?! Еще и субтитров нет, думаю это кошмар каждого человека не использующего английский, привет из России кстати *-*

"An off-brand Superman," That fits Germany's style so well ahh. Overall I'm fairly happy with the designs, but yeah France's disappoints the most.
Germany looks dead inside
I know the new season is supposedly not about WW1 or WW11 but I still wish they kept them in the uniforms. They just look great not in suits.
But it would be very weird to see them in ww2 /ww1 uniforms when their year is supposedly 2015...I care about historical accuarcy over bad fashion lol
