Hi everyone! Would anyone happen to know why Honkai 3rd's art seems a bit too rigid? I feel like the lines are too "hard" or sharp? Or like it's lacking some form of freedom, but I don't know exactly what it is.

what about how the characters tend to look very unintegrated with the scene? It kinda looks like they're pasted on
what creates harmony between objects in a scene and the overall scene?
does it have to do with how objects interact with each other?

is it that they are intentionally using very vibrant and contrasting colours?

but it seems even in anime where the characters are mostly cel shaded, they can blend in with 3D modelled backgrounds. Is this due to the colour aspect?
