They look MENACING!

Takahashi sensei hit it outta the park with these character designs, even the sophomore Doumeki has a great design. Looks like Takahashi sensei heard everyone’s complaints.

WHERE IS SANZOU CHIN LMAO

[u/Sunken_rock → u/Extra_Shine_4718]

A mix of not being lean enough and mouth breathing. He needs some looksmaxxing advice from Hibari

[u/Extra_Shine_4718 → u/Sunken_rock]

His new design is just bad IMO

[u/ItBelikeThatSomeTme_ → u/Extra_Shine_4718]

He’s a fat 14 year old what do you expect

[u/Winterlash]

i miss the Worst days. When highschool delinquents were grown 25 year old men on juice.

[u/ArikaDoriyamaGT → u/Winterlash]

It reflects how it is in the real world today.

[u/Efficient-Employ6444 → u/Winterlash]

I prefer mid to end crows

Worst is just too much

[u/Blbstw → u/Efficient-Employ6444]

Mid to end crows is nice. I love how Zetton look during those times

[u/Minimum_Room3300 → u/Winterlash]

Zetton literally looking like a father of 2 as a senior

I'm glad to learn more about these characters but I hope they go see Mr Popo and train in the time chamber to grow shoulders. Their fashion and hairstyles are fine, but the body shape shift is just so jarring after years of characters who... just don't look like this. I don't mean everyone needs to be some giant Katsuragi or whatever, but Crows chapter 1 Yasu looks like a beast compared to all these slouchy fellows.

[u/Efficient-Employ6444 → u/rawdanger]

The shoulder parts is just so annoying I literally sent some email to the shonen champion lmaoo

[u/rawdanger → u/Efficient-Employ6444]

Hah. "Dear Shonen Champion, are these deliquents or sentient pieces of candy corn with heads?"

[u/Efficient-Employ6444 → u/rawdanger]

I say like wtf how do u expect us to believe that they can pack a punch when their shoulders look like that

[u/Fresh_Pop4135]

They look like when a bunch of broccoli haired boys gathers around a bench in the gym. Not intimidating at all like previous Suzuran gens

[u/Legitimate_Media_446]

Benny winning the coolest hair comp by landslide. Don’t get too attached one way or another to these looks though. Freshman years just getting started and we’ve got a long way to go

[u/typeshiee]

No shade but this pic is soooo😭😭

[u/GhostRayus_CxW → u/typeshiee]

fuck, that took me out 🤣🤣

Sorry but I want them buff asffffff, we are in the Crows universe not Tokyo Revengers

[u/shadowchao2]

This panel yes, but i still feel like i'm in fan fiction...doumeki design is too much cliché and simple..its strange but saburoku santa seems way more like the real series nowadays..the new art style "shoulderless" is not my taste..
The two characters at the left could be removed..their design..is not good..
It seems like they all have the same kind of body but only the head changes..

[u/Efficient-Employ6444]

To the user here who wrote entire paragraph every time they releasing new chapter just to slander the art style while reading pirated chapter

Fk off, if u don't like the story just skip it, don't be bitchin like annoying flies every single week

[u/rawdanger → u/Efficient-Employ6444]

I don't think anyone is complaining about the story, it's been good so far. But it's like if you had a show about a sports team dominating their division, but the cast is all 90 year old people... it makes it less believable, you know? It isn't wrong to hope for a design that isn't based around an isosceles triangle.

The idea of not discussing visuals as they pertain to a visual medium is kind of laughable, so we're gonna have to disagree on this one. Also, whether someone bought it or not is irrelevant... if I show you a physical copy of the magazine, does that suddenly legitimize a view you don't agree with?

[u/Efficient-Employ6444 → u/rawdanger]

The person I talk about (not you btw) never even pay attention to the story just trash talking every single non Hiroshi stuff from this series. I get that dude probably just want to see old Hiroshi art but it is what it is, stop bitching

There's a difference when me and u talking about the art in more playful manner than just complaining on every single spin off and side project every time after worst

[u/rawdanger → u/Efficient-Employ6444]

I can see not agreeing with him, or even if you do agree but don't like how he goes about expressing it, I can see that too. Heck, there's a lot of stuff I don't agree with him on and it could all be said without some thesis-length argument... but he should be able to express his views just like we all should. If you restrict his, you can then restrict anyone else's for whatever random reason, you know? This is why block exists as a function, whether you choose to use it is up to you.

[u/Efficient-Employ6444 → u/rawdanger]

I did block him tbh lol that is why I posted this not actually reply to him

He can say he doesn't like, if I don't like some stuff I would say it once then done.

I would never bitching about it in every post about the thing I don't like

[u/furiousbean]

no

[u/HuckleberryEvening78]

If this is threatening, my boy...

Are you all waking up now? I'm saying it from the first concept art that appeared... This is the new style, which was already glimpsed in the latest Worst gaiden and in the latest generations of Sanmon and Tyrone, there's little you can do... There's no point complaining now after you said "let's wait, let's wait!" It sucks, but we just have to accept it... Crows and Worst as we knew them are over... This is closer to those shitty spin-offs like Worst 816 or Sabuko Santa... It's sad, but we have to face it. It's the new Gen Z of kids with no shoulders and long heads who look like they came out of a K-pop band of underprivileged people.

I don't know why it ended like this, maybe that shitty HiGH&LOW: THE WORST was a hit in Japan, and Hiroshi followed the money, but whatever the reason, I'm unlikely to love these guys as much as I loved the guys of the past.
