Are you familiar with the name Hanavbara? If you are a fan of fan art related to Japanese manga and anime, then this name is likely not unfamiliar to you.
Unlike many people might think, Hanavbara is a pair of siblings who specialize in creating fan art from Barcelona, Spain. They have become incredibly popular on social media for their “90s aesthetic” redesigns of anime characters, especially since the 1990s.
Much like the “stealthy makeover” style applied to characters in SPY x FAMILY or Squid Game, which has garnered a lot of attention, this sibling duo has also reimagined characters from the famous series Chainsaw Man.
In their most recent share, the duo has recreated distinct scenes from the Chainsaw Man series, showcasing their unique animation style. The first image features Power and Denji (and Pochita, even though he is not present in the scene). The second image includes Makima, the third features the Angle Devil, and the final image showcases Aki Hayakawa.
Hanavbara has mentioned that they often watch Japanese animated films throughout their growth, which has undoubtedly become a major source of inspiration for their subsequent creative endeavors.
According to them, this collection has attracted significant attention from fans of both the creators and the Chainsaw Man brand. Numerous praises have been shared regarding this beloved fan art, with comments expressing admiration such as:
– I haven’t seen anything this good in a long time!
– I can’t believe it; I love it. This is an incredible piece of work!
– The simplicity is beautiful; it’s exactly what I needed.
– It is surprisingly stunning. However, I think it would be better if Makima didn’t have any shadowing.
– I live for art like this; I believe Chainsaw Man will remain a highly popular series even when animated in this style.
