20 years from her debut and she's now a playable character in a mainline game. Getting a protagonist slot was a surprise, but a welcome one; it's fitting when you put her in the lineup with the rest of the cast of mostly animals. Her portrait left much to be desired and lacks the charm her PCB portrait had, the pose being the only positive thing I see about it. On the brightside her in game sprites are gorgeous and well animated. The remix of Charming Domination is also solid.
What do you think? Was Ran overdue for an entry or should she have stayed back as an extension of Yukari? Should Chen also get the same treatment?

honestly the art's gotten worse in some ways, it looks more homogenized, it's drifting away from the unique zun style

Definitely a lot of sameface. Yeah older art was a little goofy looking, but it's still had a lot of effort poured into it and those faces are still charming. The final quality of new art definitely took a hit, just compare the hair and tails of both portraits. He's better at modeling and anatomy sure, but rendering is terrible and looked like he tried to spend as little time as possible on it with the biggest brush size he can allow himself. It puts the 'unfinished' in the game's title.

Her face in PCB was goofy but it had way more charm than the new one. And the tails are just straight worse. Sad.
Why are all of Zun's characters so brown now?  Every single game, they get browner and browner.

racemixing in the real world influenced the skin tone of gensokyo residents

By the rules of the setting, that should have made Gensokyo's residents even paler, not darker.

I wouldn't mind if she looked more like this.

She looks like Yukari cut her supply of crack off, just how her older models are. The amount animations trying to pass it off as sexy doesn't help either.
There are better models that haven't fallen into the uncanny valley and are something you can call cute.

While I agree that Ran model can be creepy depending on the shader, this one is just copypasted from Renko/Maribel model and it's used on a lot of characters too.
