His style gives a vintage/venerable feeling in terms of design, but the color of his style breathes this lovely organic tone into character designs that shouldn't seemingly be given such bold but vibrant colors; but in doing so creates this incredible synergy of a post-modern tone that allow these characters to feel like something you could even see today, and it'd feel completely fashionable to see them actually wear this clothing/armor. I think the Hallmark of a Great Artist is: to change the general perception of what is acceptable and or fantastic in way that'd make anyone choose to believe the artist's perception is the correct one; because it's been designed complexly to be simple to digest for anyone's level of appreciation.

I don't know how much of Granblue Fantasy's artwork he did himself, but it's obviously influenced by his style/illustrators under his art direction probably have to follow his style.
