If only. There’s nothing anime about it. Unless you stretch the definition to include glowing sigils in the air as “anime art.” Which is not exclusive to anime. Dr Strange has it.

Doesn't look anomie to me just generic digital art. Looks good technical PoV.

Might look better on the page.

That’s a Dragonlance White Robe wizard if I ever saw one.

I love the design and the art is wonderful. But it strikes me as very "Overwatch."

I would enjoy it as a MTG planeswalker card.

Generic powerful caster, too clean, too shiny, give me a bit more grit and realism, not this superhero posing. Dr Strange meets Wakanda

I mentioned in another thread it gave me vibes of Storm from the X-men.

Ah good call out. Overwatch, MtG. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but its a very clean style for sure. They could do far worse than to aim for Overwatch/MtG tier production values.

TY, and I agree. Still, at what level does a wizard learn to wield their gear telekinetically? A power this cool, useful, and represented by the art shouldn't just be flavor. (WotC, you can send me my designer fee later! )

Could be mage hand and prestidigitation, could be levitate or animate object. Order of the Scribes does give the Wizard a “walking spell book” at some level, and Bard College of Creation gives a dancing item - lots of options from window dressing descriptions to actual spells and abilities.

I’m sure it’s going to spark some group discussions like D&D Hat Owlbear Druid has done.

It's quite nice BUT I dislike art that isn't possible in the game
If a wizard cannot do what is in the picture then don't use it.
