I love the character design for the adult Shouko. She seems such a real person, and so beautiful, and her depression comes through. I can't remember any design quite like it.
But as for Hagu, I am among the few who actively liked how she was designed. Besides the moe factor, it was also outward demonstration of inner nature, and allowed her to visibly grow over the series (and the manga). Karada is no doubt also made young partly to make her look cute, but I think the story will make use of the contrast in some way.
Does the name "Karada" sound odd in Japanese? I mean, it
is a homophone for a word for "body."
