** The designs for ''Crystal'' have fans divided: some hate the NoodlePeople character designs, while others love them for being artistically TruerToTheText. The person involved with the original series in any capacity to speak on this has been John Stocker, who handled portions of the original 90s English dub and felt the skinny designs made them look spider-like and unrealistic. Notably, none of the actual creators or animators from the original show have said anything on it.

Adjusted the wording a little; \"refused\" seems like a somewhat loaded way of phrasing it, given that it\'s common for people to favor the version they saw first and the original Japanese subs and manga weren\'t as conveniently accessible to English-speaking fans when the series first made it big in those markets.

These are all part of the same thought. The John Stocker bit is also misleading and inaccurate. Fixed. Also put back something removed for what appears to be no reason? They Changed It Now It Sucks specifically documents reactions based entirely on \"New thing is not old thing,\" and nothing I added contradicted that trope. Base Breaker covers critiques that aren\'t just pure nostalgia filters going into overdrive.


** The designs for ''Crystal'' have fans divided: some hate the NoodlePeople character designs, while others love them for being artistically TruerToTheText. In particular, John Stocker, the voice director for the original anime's 90's dub, said he found the new designs off-putting, saying it made the girls look spider-like and unrealistic.
** Some fans are unhappy with aspects of the animation itself, like lower frame rates, or the lack of comedic {{Art Shift}}s limiting Usagi's range of expression.
** The ConspicuousCG transition in the TransformationSequence, though CelShaded, is also proving similarly divisive.

** The animation style has been somewhat controversial due to the skinny bodies, lower frame rate, less exaggerated facial expressions, and the ConspicuousCGI in the cel-shaded transformation sequences. Some people don't care about any of those things or actually love it more because it more closely resembles the manga and not the 90s anime.
