I really love the design philosophy in this Na Zha
Its designs faithfully translates the gender neutral aesthetics of Steven Universe into 3D, based on an honest succession of the Shrek-esque DreamWorks style.
This expression of Ne Zha accurately conveys a distinctive and unique design philosophy that stands in direct opposition to capitalist beauty standards.
In the West and Japan, when Nezha is depicted, he is often portrayed in a femboy style that flatters capitalist aesthetic standards in order to portray a gender neutral appearance
however, this Chinese animation directly opposes such this patriarchal trends by revealing a unique and distinctive aesthetic sense that is gender nonconforming in perfectly opposite side. This aligns exactly with the direction of the design philosophy that Shrek and Steven wanted to say.
