I read chapter 2 of the Consulting manga and I highly recommend more people to check it out. It's perfect.

it's not like they said NO SEASON 3 FOREVER but i'm pretty sure the last announcement was "new konosuba anime project!" which should be this movie, if that's what you mean.

Also, the movie's site lists JC Staff as the new studio on board, but, and I stress this point, all the key staff it lists are returnees. Director, composition, char design, composer.

I just say that because naturally the internet is rife with "NO DEEN! BUT THEN THE ANIME WON'T LOOK DUMB AND FUNNY" and like, a new studio will bring some changes, but there's a clear intent to preserve much of the show as well; imo those worries don't need to proliferate unchecked.

Oh, is that why the characters look slightly off? Aqua more so than the others.

All I ask is that Darkness's chest be contained. Her overall shape evolved throughout the show, to the point I wondered if the character designers were just having fun pushing the envelope further.

I wonder if it's going to be an original thing or if it's going to be volume 5. I'd assume the latter I suppose but none of the books are exactly demanding a lavish film treatment.

The only way to know this for sure is if they pick Aqua or Eris. Only those of pure heart know what the right choice of deity is.

"" posted:

Darkness’s proportions also look completely different than they do in the other episodes, don’t they?

Kikuta: Oh, they do? (laughs) Are you talking about her chest size?

The size and the way they hang.

Kikuta: I might have overdone it a bit there. When I was drawing her, I lost restraint. I had the feeling that her breasts were getting bigger—and what do you know? They were slowly but surely getting bigger. (laughs)

And yet her breasts droop according to the laws of gravity in a realistic way. Were you trying to make that realistic?

Kikuta: That has less to do with realism and more to do with me drawing whatever I like.

It doesn’t particularly follow the designs, huh?

Kikuta: Not at all. Even I thought that they were off.

(laughs)

Kikuta: I thought that her breasts were too big and that they don’t droop that low. I might have gone a bit overboard with the whole braless thing. My senses were numb at the time, and when I look at it now, I do think I overdid it. The same thing applies to the boob jiggles. Once I started putting them in, it felt like something was missing when they weren’t there.

In episode 1, the guild receptionist Luna’s breasts jiggled to a certain degree.

Kikuta: Back then, her hair swayed in the drawings, so I used the same frames to make her breasts jiggle while I was at it.

As the chief animation director, you made her boobs jiggle?

Kikuta: That’s right. (laughs)

And by contrast, the boobs in episode 9 jiggle all over the place.

Kikuta: Ah, yes. They jiggle even in the part before the OP. If the boobs jiggle even from such slight movements, then it would be strange if they didn’t move when they walk. That’s my rationale.

They jiggle even when they’re just eating food.

Kikuta: They do. (laughs)

The entire interview is hilarious.

Or maybe that's just standard operating procedure, considering their work schedules.

Had to double check this with a rewatch (because any excuse is good enough) but it looks like their OVA episode styles.

And Aqua is indeed drawn wrong. She's not low-res out-of-focus thumbs-up looking into the prison style Aqua. Coming to stores near you!
