I wouldn't go that far. I've seen too many nightmares there.
Me too. Then again, people should really see that the artist (Naoko Imaizumi, an in-house animator of Studio DEEN) is closely following Koichi Kikuta's artstyle in this pic (and has been done that to her other illustrations of this series too). Many people complained the way the series looked and regardless of matters, it fits the over-the-top comedy especially when it is done with supposedly minimalistic production values (it is particularly apparent in episodes where Kikuta is the chief animation director), although I wouldn't go as far that the animation is in any way perfect. Kikuta did a very good job at animating the style and bring it to life. If any other character designer (or to a lesser extent the studio) did the art for Konosuba, it'll most likely look tame and not silly enough.

I know I'm really late to respond, but I don't think this image exactly fits that bill. Alot of Konosuba's art and animation is done without proper facial framing and lots of goofy exaggeration, but this image in particular is over the line into the valley of dysmorphism
