>Left is confirmed artwork by Keiji Inafune for Mega Man 1
>Left is promotional artwork for the game Cocoron.

so the artwork for megaman was also the promotional artwork for cocoron? Interesting
but what about the image on the right?

I can't prove it for certain, but I'd say it's pretty probable since he has a connection to both games.

>>4114220
That's not a typo. Thid is a typo. Confusing left and right is just retardation.

>>4114220
>a typo
the difference between left and right is pretty fucking important in every situation where left and right need to be specified

Thing is though, Inafune was a Capcom employee, so making artwork for a rival company would likely be a no-no.

It's funny that your first thought is that Inafune "helped" with the Cocoron art when the much more obvious conclusion is that Cocoron was a Kitamura design and so was the original Mega Man. Look at the oldest of old Mega Man art - the almond shaped eyes, the flat smile, the looser helmet - and draw your own conclusions.

This plus the style is very generic 80s anyways, a lot of modern moeshit use the exact same style but they're not made by the same guy.

As far as I know Kitamura wasn't an illustrator, so I doubt the style is his.

Kitamura is not a professional illustrator. Inafune was brought on to turn his rough drawings and pixel art into refined art good enough to put on box art.

Kitamura can draw, and he posts some drawings to his site, but there's a kind of crudeness to them.

Cocoron has official art?

You know what he fucking meant wise guy just ignore it.

>>4114213
it's possible

Inafune's style is reminicent of Akira Toriyama. Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball were huge at the time, so I can see why this would appear to be "generic".

This would have meant that it would have been unofficial, as he was a Capcom employee at the time.

>of Akira Toriyama
And Koji Inada, and Tetsuhiro Koshita, and Early Gosho Aoyama, and...
That style was all over the place in kiddie shonens.
