Anda's design is a total breath of fresh air as she doesn't fall into the narrow traditional western beauty standard, and the design really helps in both Anda's relatablity and her believability - namely as a girl that might want for some escape from real life. Excelling particularly at character expressions and body language, Wang brings a real emotional heart to the story. Easily at home both in Anda's real life and in her more creative game life, Wang maximizes the contrasts between the two worlds but also manages to root everything nicely so the book still feels like one consistent volume. An immensely talented illustrator, Wang has an obvious animation background that shows in the energy, craft, and movement she brings to her character design and storytelling. Wang is the perfect artist for this project.
