I don't want to be negative but I have mixed feelings about the new design. They're mostly technical and could be fixed though.
- Stray hair between eye and eyebrow exists in the same visual space as the eyebrow and so clutters the readability of the expressions when zoomed in.
- When jacket is on and Nene is using the arm toggles because of where the jackets elbows sit they confuses the over-all arm proportions making the arms look significantly longer than they are supposed to.
- Cow hood does not have any design or visual contiguity with the rest of the outfit and so does not appear to actually fit or be attached anywhere.
- Ahoge sticks through the top of the hood which adds to the above
- Heart ahoge and heart halo occupy the same visual space making the space right above/behind her head cluttered
- The jacket being in a half-off/half-on position creates an impression of stiffness in the over-all shape
- Waist buckle is really, really reflective but doesn't have a reflection in it so it is distracting, I would either matte it a little or put a blurred cloudtomo or something in there.
- Lots of flapping wings from top to bottom are a little distracting.
- That isn't Nene's face. There's just no getting around it the face is different from the old design and so as someone who's been watching Nene for 3 years it's super weird and hard to acclimate to.
Any one of them on their own is not a huge deal (beside the face) in anyway but all-together they bother me.
Also I liked the old emotes better but that's purely personal preference.
