For all the time and effort they put into their backgrounds and animation, why did they never bother to update their character designs since the goddamn 80s? Not just the faces, but the lack of details on the characters bodies and costumes as welll.

Who the fuck are you? You're no artist. You suck.

Little girls are timeless.

People expect this look from them, why would they change what works?

Because Miyazaki is a hack
He doesn't bother animating expressive facial animations either

Oh and it's been 40 years since he's been doing this shit since Heidi

Because Ghibli is a brand.

Sup Miyazaki.

>He doesn't bother animating expressive facial animations either
Wrong

Ghibli should have had character designs like these after 2000.

Disgusting

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Commit sudoku, pls.

Just because the show it's from is shit doesn't mean these designs are. They're retro as fuck yet still full of character.

You can't change the wheel.

>retro as fuck

Nope.

>full of character

Nope.

You only think they're good designs because in the show they have tons of shading and detail drawn into their features, but not because of the actual designs themselves.

Ilona kinda reminds me of Shin Kazama. Ayame of that chick from Sakura Taisen.

Idk man, but I find it charming

If someone complains about your characters always looking the same, just post MUH STARSYSTEM and a picture of Tezuka.

this

Miyazaki hates Tezuka though, so he doesn't have the right to use his excuse.

What's so bad about the designs?

Is there a single aspect of Miyazaki's life you guys won't criticize?

They aren't bad, but they aren't unique or special in the slightest. They're slightly less generic than typical LNshit, but nothing charming like Ghibli.

>Ghiblifag calling other designs not unique
Maybe you need to look at OP's picture again. Go on, I'll wait. Put your glasses on this time too.
