More serious characters or villains typically
have narrower eyes.
Expressions and actions are often
exaggerated too. If a character is crying,
tears may flow like rivers out of his eyes.
If the character is embarrassed, his whole
face might turn red. Steam might even rise
from his head.
Despite this exaggeration, other parts of
anime and manga often have a dedication
to realism. Artists work to ensure quality
even with challenging production schedules.
They keep the art consistent. Each frame
has a purpose and adds to the story.
