Yeah, back then, it really did look like very similar to Punishing Gray Raven. Pic related in particular could very easily have been an early-game A-rank omniframe in PGR.
Kind of ironic that now, PGR has somewhat slowly began moving away from its hard sci-fi aesthetic and towards (for lack of a better word) a more WW-esque look, with recent characters Bianca Crepuscule and Vera Geiravor looking more like WW characters than traditional PGR characters. Of course, they haven't completely moved away, since you still have new sci-fi-looking characters like Veronica Aegis, but if you compare their newest characters with their oldest ones, it's clear they've been moving towards a more hybrid style that mixes fantasy and not just sci-fi.
Makes me wonder if future WW characters will go full sci-fi.
