I’m making this to be called out if I’m just wrong in a bad way. But I feel like a lot of anime style lately is starting to look very samey? I don’t know if its because of gotcha games but I’ll see a anime character and go "hmm have I seen this character before?’ When in the past I would know a anime character even if I didn’t watch the show. Maybe it’s just the type of anime that is popular now? Honestly no idea.
I believe they do this to make easier for themselfs and animators (specially since a lot of anime is send to vietnam, korea or philippines to be finished). I always found sort of interesting how Sailor Moon’s villains are the only ones to have different faces/irises.
