Random Thought: Why does all "90's Anime style" fanart just look like Sailor Moon?
Okay, obviously not all fanart looks like it. But if you were to type in "90s anime style" here on Tumblr or DeviantArt at the time of this post, it at least seems to be the majority stand-in for 90s anime aesthetic, right? Especially in the characters' eyes.
Don't me wrong, this is not a knock against Sailor Moon. It is a great anime, and the collective character designs by Kazuko Tadano, Ikuko Ito, and Mari Tominaga among other staff are iconic. So iconic that Tadano was brought back as the character designer for the latest Sailor Moon movies. That is quite the staying power.
But let's be fair, there are plenty of 90s anime out there that can also be used as inspiration. So, here are the names of 11 character designers alongside some gifs of shows/projects they worked on in that role. Some you may not know but you've seen their work, and others you probably know for their distinct art style or association with a franchise.
Things worth noting: First, the years listed here with some anime may reflect when the artists' work started airing, rather than when the anime itself actually started. Some folks listed here enter their projects mid-production in other roles, while others are in the role from the start. Second, each entry will list 1 or 2 projects aired/released during the 90s, but it will be noted if the artist's role continues beyond that with certain franchises. Lastly, these artists are listed in no particular order, so no "top 11" hierarchy. With that said, here's our examples:
Hisashi Eguchi (Roujin Z[1991], Sonic the Hedgehog CD [1993])

2. Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru(Dragon Ball franchise (Z [1993-96], GT [1996], Daima [2024]), Digimon franchise [1999-2002, 2019-2023])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. Kumiko Takahashi (Cardcaptor Sakura [1998-2000], Birdy The Mighty[1996])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. Takahiro Yoshimatsu (Trigun[1998], Slayers franchise[1995-97])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5. Atsuko Nakajima (Ranma 1/2[1989-1992], You're Under Arrest[1996])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
6. Sayuri Ichiishi (Pokémon[Pokémon design: 1996-present, human character design: 1996-2017])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7. Atsuko Ishida (Magic Knight Rayearth[1994-1995])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
8. Masaya Onishi (Yu Yu Hakusho[1993-1994])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
9. Toshihiro Kawamoto(Cowboy Bebop[1998-1999], Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team[1996])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
10. Hiroshi Osaka(Gundam franchise[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam: 1993-1994, Mobile Fighter G-Gundam:1994-1995])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
11. Yoshiyuki Sadamoto(Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water[1990-1991], Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise[1995-1997, 2007-2021])
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Might've leaned a bit more on the Shonen side of things than Shojo, but I hope you can see my point😅. There are tons of 90s anime out there with their own unique feel and aesthetic. These are only 11 names that I found.
For anyone drawing 90s anime style fanart, I hope this has given you some inspiration, and I encourage anyone reading this to look up your favourite anime on Anime News Network's encyclopedia and see who's responsible for helping bring your favorite characters to life on screen and what other shows they've worked on.

Huntress Finest!
Jaune: "Would you like to go out today, Ms. Nikos?"
Jaune: No, saying Ms. Nikos sounds way too weird.
Jaune: "Let's hang out today!"
Jaune: Mm, if I'm asking her out, I probably shouldn't be so demanding.
Jaune: "Hey, let's go hang out! Huh?! Huh?!"
Jaune: No. I'll just look like an idiot.
Pyrrha: Is everything alright, Jaune?
Jaune: P-PYRRHA! I DIDN'T- Wait, what are you doing here? And isn't that Bumblebee?
Pyrrha: Mhm! Yang asked me to give her another tune-up. She said that she sounded so perfect, she had to ride around all night last time.
Jaune: I thought nobody was allowed to touch Bumblebee?
Pyrrha: She can be very picky with who touches her. Both Yang AND Bumblebee.
Jaune: Actually, can I ask you to take a look at something for me?
Pyrrha: Of course, but you might have to wait. I have a lot of other things to take care of.
Jaune: No, no, I understand. It can wait.
Ruby: No, it can't wait! This is no time to be talking motorhead, you know!
Pyrrha: Well, I waited for our sparring match, but you overslept.
Ruby: Wh- No! No, no, no! That's not what this is about! And you! Do it already!
Jaune: Er... Ah... W-Would you, um...
Pyrrha: What is going on with you two? You're both acting very weird.
Nora: Jauney here is trying to keep you from going out with Cardin, so he's asking you out himself~!
Jaune: Ack-! Hah-! Ogh-!
Nora: He says, "Are you free this weekend?"
Pyrrha: Oh, this weekend?
Jaune: YES!
Pyrrha: ...No. I'm sorry, but I already have plans this weekend.
Jaune: ...
Pyrrha: And what's this about Cardin?!
Nora: Ah! W-Well, Ren said he didn't know your plans, so I, uh, well... (Looks outside, RWBYRCFVY glare at her)
RWBYRCFVY: NORA!
Nora: Ah... Eto... Bleh..?
---------------------------------------------------
Nora: (Groans through gag, Tied up in a bag)
Ren: You have no one to blame but yourself, Nora.
