They made him look so ugly in comparison to the manga, that it's reaching a point where it feels offensive.
they literally didn't have to make anyone look like that either--they could have kept it on manga model :( it almost feels like a joke at this point...
and with the amount of marketing they're doing in the US to make it popular, you'd think they would have made every effort to keep it close to the manga 😐
they sent this in an email the other day from Hot Topic x Crunchyroll making it look like it was a huge KN8 collection... It was just those 2 tshirts.
it's just like... what happened to everyone??? ;w;

Ok, when was the universe planning to tell me this?
Cuz' I feel robbed of the Information that Godzilla comes in different ?colors? Was this an always thing? I'm not that deep in the lore of Godzilla and all that but I feel like this should of been a useless piece of info that I should of known about earlier in life. Cuz now I gotta ask.
Can Godzilla come in Rainbow? I don't even mean this in a gay joke way, I am seriously asking can we have Rainbow Godzilla? Do the colors do something special to the atomic breath? I know color translates to heat (Red=cold / Blue=hot) But pink fire means he's burning Lithium and.... does that have a benefit?
Non of this is going to have a serious hold in my brain for very long however because i'm on a very dedicated Kaiju Number 8 fixation and one of the characters has pink hair and I'm now in a AU creation mindset that's about Iharu getting his own mini Kaiju infestation transformation like Kafka went through and what he would look like afterword.
Seriously, Iharu getting a Kn8 style transformation and the bright pink in his hair is now the main color. Not even a glowing accent, the whole bio suit is Malibu Barbie Pink and he f*cking rocks it.
Legit might post a shitty drawing of the design I come up with for Kaiju Iharu if I can ever (mentally) get his jaw to look normal. I see it looking like a pink Ghidorah lookin' a** thing, with horned wings and XL assasin's creed bio knives sticking out from the tops of his forearms.

real rough sketches of Haru's growth progress. His hair gets straighter (and darker) the older he gets.

I feel like such a hater over all the KN8 stuff, but it's kind of deserved esp with how long the studio took to work on it, having the kaiju stuff animated by the evangelion crew, the big hype up and advertising in the USA...
For the art style to not even have sharp lines like the manga is. Weird to say the least. I can understand some coloring issues because of screentones (though you. can add those digitally)...
I'm interested to see how the first episode looks and feels, however, I still am not sure about the very americanized OP and ED... It feels like it's being marketed as "the american anime" esp with the popularity of Pacific Rim here.
It's such a strange phenomenon we're watching unfold in real time... I guess we'll get answers with the first episode very soon.
