The new headquarters building of Kyoto Animation still uses the khaki exterior color of the old building. It looks very similar to the old building. It is also a three-story building, which looks very similar to an ordinary residential building and is very similar to the style of the old building. Of course, the new building is much larger, with more rooms on each floor, and the balcony and rooftop have been expanded.

Many netizens also complained about Kyoto Animation's new building: "Isn't this an ordinary apartment building? Why does Kyoto Animation like such a rustic style?" "Why use this shit-yellow color? It looks so conspicuous." It seems that many netizens can't accept this color. However, some netizens said, "Like PA, blindly expanding, a lot of space in the building is idle. Kyoto Animation's way feels more practical." Anyway, it seems that Kyoto Animation prefers this style and will not change it easily no matter what.
