reading dungeon meshi and getting to see ryoko kui's character design notes and processes is so consistently exciting and inspiring tbh
I wanna really pick apart her character design brain she's so GOOD at it
this one in particular blows my mind with its just. genius simplicity.
modern everyday clothing is what we all know the most about in terms of fashion. its the language we all speak. so of course it makes sense to work out how your charaters would dress in the language you already understand, before translating that backwards into practical and character-fitting fantasywear
its so simple!! it makes so much sense!! im amazed i never thought of it and it feels so huge brained!!! im gonna be thinking about it forever now!!!!
