#now everything is monotone and basically a drawn tautology

@an-angel-so-called-satan made a post about how and why she feels about VADD lately and I 100% stand whit the feeling, but with different reasons.

There's the same push as in 'the villainess is a marionette' for making almost every panel a very detailed work of art and it comes with a price. Personally I don't find the story dragging, instead the artwork stopped being diverse so it's just not registering if that makes sense.

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

where the last panel should take your breath away, but it's just a little light in the background

The more simple art slyle that where present in the first two seasons gave SOUL the possibility to play with the characters more. There where more faces, angles and interactions. It was about how to draw the story. Now that time seems to be spent on drawing details and copy-pasting is just necessary to make it before the deadline.

I understand that more high quality panels means there are more merch that can be made, but the difference in the maze chapters and the birthday one (for example) is astounding if you pay attention. SOUL is not only a good artist, but an amazing storyteller and we have been robbed of it in the past seasons.
