In my case, the low res the sprites of In MBAACC are vague enough to convince me that those sprites could look like the characters I know from the VIsual Novel

... whereas TL has sprites so detailed that you can see that these characters don't look the way they should.

The animation is objectively better. It has anticipation, follow-through, exaggeration, etc.
If you go frame-by-frame through modern 2D sprites you'll see they all just look like still images, not something that's in motion.

I actually prefer this style over TL not because it is pixel-y or something, but because it is true to the source and not a generic popular-anime-ish visual style from the remake.
I wanted to like it but I could't, even did a refund.
Seriously, very short hair and miniskirt on Arcueid??
And the faces, oh boy they are so... bad? They dont show anything

Also the moves and playstyles. Lots of playstyles.
I was into MB since Act Cadenza version A (NAOMI), it had distinct Arcueid EX move blood attack that sends opponent to fly all over the screen and then STOMP him into the ground. It looked so badass, and kinda still is. And since I am Arcueid fan, so, I liked it alot)))
