She's a manganime character. The laws of physics (including gravity) are merely guidelines at best.
I meant unbalanced as a character design - it wouldn't look right. It'd be like a h-game parody which would lack the cuteness and cool look of her current Kouji design. Like a bad Photoshop of a character.

... What about Ushio and her fellow big-breasted destroyer girls?

Ushio is built differently - she's not as proportionally tiny, and everything is more rounded with he. She didn't ever seem as slender as Hibiki except in bad fanart which made her boobs look like basketballs glued on a flat wall. Even with the rounder head used here by Kouji, she was never really designed to be shaped too different from the rest of the destroyers, especially with those long skinny legs.
You'd need to redo her in a different style to make the oppai work beyond a certain point. It's like shoving Atago boobs on Fubuki - it just doesn't work on her the way it would on Souryuu or Hiryuu.
Changed translation on the last bubble. I was a little confused at the dialogue first, but it looks like Akigumo's point is that Hibiki's a loli while she is not. (The previous post is not tagged as oppai loli in pixiv.)
No, it's more that the readers are Oppai-loli lovers. As in 'the reader's choice is for oppai-loli'.
But doesn't 読者を選ぶ literally mean 'the content chooses the reader'? As in, it will attract only those who are interested? I don't know about English, but a very similar expression exists in my language so I thought that would be the case. Still, I could've got it all wrong. That bubble wasn't the clearest sentence I've seen in this series.
In that case, (and especially going by the next page), Akigumo's implying that if Hibiki was the model - and thus not being oppai-loli, she wouldn't sell as much.
But it's not an idiom in Japanese as far as I can tell (or at least through Google and the dictionaries I have on hand), making it just a straight statement of 'reader's choice' (especially with the の on the end).

Um, no. What Akigumo probably wants is a scene involving large breasts, and making Hibiki the model would result in an oppai loli character while busty Akigumo isn't much of a 'loli'. So I think Akigumo implies that she counts Hibiki as a loli but not herself (and Ushio). And if by の you mean のさ, that's just a way to end a sentence, like 'nanosesu'. It doesn't mean anything by itself.

のさ is the equivalent of のだ (which is often contracted to んだ), which turns the preceding clause into a noun clause; true, it's not a free form (and thus doesn't have meaning 'in itself'), but it has meaning, nonetheless (in a linguistic sense, anyway).
It still seems to me that it's implying that big-breasted lolis are what brings the readers to the yard, so to speak; but I have been up for about 28 hours now (insomnia is a terrible thing), so I could be parsing it wrong. (Kouji's Ushio looks oppai loli-ish to me, so...)
My take is thus: Akigumo notes that big-breasted lolita characters (which Hibiki would end up looking like if Akigumo used her as a model) appeal to a certain demographic (literally "select the readers"). So it isn't just "what readers want", but what a specific subset of readers wants. Does that seem plausible?
Oppai loli is quite the divisive theme! See post #1012064
That being the case then, if you were to use me...It's just that even after all this time, yeah? Poor Akigumo-san just isn't all that great at making a character up from whole cloth, yep.So that's why it's me... 'kay?And yeah... I'm thinking that I'd like to draw up an original manga eventually, see?Oppai-loli is one of those "love it or dislike it" themes, yeah?Ah, yes...
I understand your situation.Divided Preferences
