the colors looks kinda washed up and the textures she's using for it looks weird, it makes the drawings looks kinda lq

I think the original cover art was the best. i’m not a fan of the covers that followed.

Agreed. The tankoubon covers were the best by far. Naoko's artistic ability started declining after the '90s.

Over here there's a traditional belief that when you see a person w/ the bottom parts of the body missing or blurred, that must be a ghost.

For me the Kanzeban ones are the best. Kil me with stones. The new ones are nice hut not cover material. I still find the shinsoban ones the worst. Overall I wish she used the museum art for these.

Actually they show just fine. I wonder why some people on here don't see images posted properly. Maybe the admin should check what could cause the problem for some people.

They're the best. Each one of them represented the volume's content.

Yup, & the relevant HP linked in that tweet:

^ It feels as if it were a new Sailor Moon production in 3D animation if you ignore the words. lol

And the trailer promotion video linked in that HP:

^ The 3D Senshi look like garage-kit figures. lol

Just realized the covers of Mars/Jupiter have them wearing chokers.

Moon and Mercury have chokers too.

Considering the respective different positions of the white-lighting parts on their redesigned chokers, I suspect those parts move in circles along the chokers like color-changing LED lights.

That illustration really looks like something she’d draw in the early 90’s!

I wish Naoko would hand drawn Saturn movarian star brooch. Or find better way to use photoshop ways.

These look so animation friendly... If they based the designs on these I think everybody would have been happy.
