So, in light of Mayumi Hirota (the character designer for Thracia 776 and Tear Ring Saga) suddenly passing away, I thought it would be best if we paid tribute to her by sharing our favorite character designs by her. I haven't played Tear Ring Saga (I will eventually though, it's on my bucket list), and while I haven't beaten Thracia 776, I really did like a lot of her character designs. These are some of my personal favorites

I even love some of the character designs that she did in one of the art books for Genealogy of the Holy War

What about you guys? What are some of your personal favorite character designs done by Mayumi Hirota?

Selfina takes it, for mine - Amalda as a close second. She knew how to do a powerful 80s knight aesthetic.

I don't think you need to ask twice for mine.

Says a lot that possibly her skimpiest design(For non-Dancers, at least) is this guy. I always appreciated that she kept most of her female characters in grounded clothing and actually wearing pants.

There was always something about the way she did her traditional inks that was really eye catching. Her line weight and posing was always so spot on for these. Honestly, Thracia is such a huge turning point for the series' look and the first time I think Fire Emblem had some seriously good art. Very sad that Kaga wasn't able to collaborate with her again after their time with Tirnanog, nor did IS seem to ever want her to come back for anything.
