I would have suggested the style was a more "traditional" format myself for pretty much the appeal to a wider audience... :-/

There is also a lot of knee-jerk reactions to traditional anime styles in some cultures (example I heard several years ago; "oh no not more Jap-crap"). Its also more familiar grounds to many of the overseas cultures then the cutesy anime girls while still maintaining the scope of familiarity enough for Japanese fans (or fans of the Japanese anime-stuff).

I find this is a suitable style to avoid the typical "weaboo" stereotype of western anime/manga fans... Who tend to like only a small scope of what is actually on offer in manga/anime from Japanese culture.... And would like the Japanese V3 package just for its more "Kawaii desu" approach. :-/
