@mangeurdenuage Is that an actual art school? The designs are probably market-tested to work on babies or something, but it manages to be blander and more repellent than the awful 1990s Cartoon Network style that was so prevalent before.

Yeah. There was a blog post of someone working there who exposed the blatant internal problems, but I can't find it anymore. It's not real school of art anymore it's more like a place where rich parents let their kids being supervised in adult kindergarden.

The style i's overused/miss-used. Anon explains it better than I do.
@mangeurdenuage Makes sense. If it wasn't an overused style it wouldn't be jarring.

From reading this, I thing one part was not emphasized enough.

this style does not fit action of almost any kind. That is quite a realization for me, since most western kid shows depend on action and high emotional impact.

When I saw gumball, I didn't feel in slightest that the show was dragged by the art style. On the contrary, it was perfectly fitting.
