I can't help thinking that the whole update is very much pushing the characters into stereotypical East Asian beauty standards. Skin seems to have become lighter across the board, eyes have larger pupils and eyebrows are less prominent, sharper facial features have become rounder and softer, more youthful looking. My own Elezen looks like he's 10 years younger and his stern expression is gone, like he has some sort of Benjamin Button situation going on. I would expect my character to look more weary and rugged as time goes on, not less.
