Manga art - particularly the MEO and Chibi styles - work well in reactionary media as they are both non-threatening and visually very stripped down. For an ideology that favors uniformity and visual flawlessness, whose utopian vision is distinctly homogeneous, this very minimalist artistic portrayal of movement leaders clicks.
I notice that fascist "bad guys" tend to get the hyper-realist treatment, while the fascist "good guys" become increasingly bland uniform ambiguously aged caricatures of people.
Transforming a frumpy looking 40-year-old into a flattened out eternally youthful generic NPC looking mf feeds the narrative of this perfect ubermench race fascists are all clamoring to claim membership in.
