It is a little known fact that K-ON! actually originated in the sixties and has been renewed each decade since with the then contemporary art style – or so some are evidently maintaining. Archetypal moeblob Mio‘s evolution is shown in the above illustrations.
See also the previous images along similar lines, showing both nineties Mio and nineties Azusa.
1980s Mio is great. Just great.
As for 90s Mio, they should’ve gone for a Blue Seed look, not a Saber Marionette look.
70s Mio is best Mio. She strikes me as the most realistic-looking design, kinda like Range Murata’s cartoonish-realistic style.
70’s Mio looks really hot.
70’s then 80’s and…. NEVER 90’s!
The 1970’s would have it but what the f♥♥k is up with the 90’s? Whooooah momma, Even I wouldnt touch that!
