Tropes used by Edge Animation:
- Animesque: They happen to be assigned to Western action shows and movies that sport this aesthetic, despite being a Korean studio. They've been paired with an actual Japanese studio, The Answer Studio, for Green Lantern: Beware My Power.
- Thick-Line Animation: Their work on DC's Tomorrowverse has them animating characters with noticeably bolder outlines.
- Thin-Line Animation: They have also worked on shows with minimal or thinner linework on characters, such as Marvel's Spider-Man and Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts.
