i don't think it will ever get to that. The anime style in resolute is probably what we'll see from here on out or CGI

There's no one with extra large eyes, narrow face, hair over the eyes as the norm--the faces look normal. It's little things like transforming cycle, etc. But I'll have to sit down and make some good responses to this.

It's mainly the gear and machinery. The face sculpts might be inspired or designed by the resolute art director as they sort of look that way too me.
