>30 years apart
>characters still look identical

Is Miyazaki creatively stagnant as an artist? His art style hasn't evolved at all in the past 3 decades.

Even Takahata, despite not drawing himself, has enough sensibility to change up his style every as time went by.

It's boring. And extremely unusual. I don't think I've seen any artists whose style of drawing doesn't change at all in thirty years' time.

To be fair though, it's hard to imagine how Ghibli designs could have "evolved" without going into awful modern moeblob Kyoani territory.

But it isn't. It's all based on the style of Nippon Animation and the type of character designs that were popular from the 60s-70s. Only reason it's considered "unique" now is because it's outdated as shit and no one else is using it.

They used that type of character design well before Miyazaki even started working with them. Look at others like Toei and Mushi Pro around that same time period and you'll find similar types of character designs as well.

You can say a lot about where Miyazaki's background comes from, but this is just wrong. Just compare Conan to other Nippon Animation anime of the time. Conan is more than recognizable as Miyazaki and yet is blatantly different to what else NA was doing.
>>
>>149534490
His characters look similar to the direct Toei artist line though (Mori - Otsuka - Kotabe).

Also I remember reading some interview with Suzuki or whoever where it was basically said that Miyazaki was fucking jealous of Kondo because he had always been a better artist and animator than him lol

Yoshikazu Yasuhiko draws like it's still the early 80s and his art looks all the more beautiful for it. Meanwhile, most of his contemporaries from that era aside from Mikimoto and Kagawa have all devolved to shit.

Nagano has improved drastically and blows away pretty much every other character designer from the 80s now. Mikimoto especially has gone to shit with his sameface moeblobs. Kitazume and Shirow had it the worst though.
>>
>>149532198
But the paneling in volume 1 is pretty clumsy. Great draftsman and animator he is, Miyazaki was never that great at manga.
>>
>>149538026
The panelling in Nausicaa was always pretty clumsy, made even worse by the copious amount of speech bubbles taking up half the page. Miyazaki never really understood how to use still images to his advantage.

>implying she wouldn't abandon you in a heartbeat if it would please the Ohmu

>>149538118
>copious amount of speech bubbles taking up half the page

Jesus, it's all coming back to me. Though I think he made good use of stillness when it came to action scenes at least. Like with Nausicaa jumping into the air right before she made her first kill.

Also, random question, but were the Heedra really about to rape her when they were tearing off her clothes? Nausicaa was always getting groped by tentacles and other weird shit in this manga.
>>
>>149538301
>were the Heedra really about to rape her when they were tearing off her clothes

No? They didn't have genitals or anything. They were just trying to rip her apart and she was struggling to get away from them.

You can still evolve your style AND keep it simple at the same time, which is something barely any Japanese artist (not in gaming at least), even ones I like, have even a fraction of the competence or talent to do. Fuck, I believe one of the only examples of an artist I can recall able to do both is Shuichi Seki and Koji Morimoto

Miyazaki is better known for his storytelling style than his artstyle. I mean, his artstyle is distinctive, but I don't know anyone who views his stuff based only on the style of art in them.

As for the artsyle, note that there are far more people than just Miyazaki drawing frames. Also, there is likely an intentional attempt to keep things consistent looking, so that people will identify it as a "Ghibli film".
>>
>>149543726
>As for the artsyle, note that there are far more people than just Miyazaki drawing frames.
Yes, but they're based on the character designer's work and corrected by the animation director(s) (often the same person as the character designer) so they all look consistent. They work under Miyazaki's instructions. In some cases he's officially been the character designer.
>>
It's on purpose you fucking idiot, it's to easily identify his/Ghibli's works. Just like Disney has their unique artstyle.
