I really like how Sakura was drawn there, and actually the girls with the less "obvious" chests turn out more asthetically pleasing, from my point of view. I've been desensitized to large chests and skimpy/bathingsuit clothing, so I look to other things. Sakura and Nami are in a great pose, and their expressions both pleased but contrasting from the more animated (Sakura's) to a more subtle (Nami) smile. They look the most involved with whoever their audience is, aside from that brown-haired girl who's waving. Other girls that catch my eye is the Misa-look-alike (is it?) in the corner, and in the back the girl with blonde hair in a pink top. I wonder if Orihime was chosen again for the summer poster because of her bust, her looks, or if she's just a more favourable heroine for this particular artist.
Wicked poster =) It's interesting to see a different artist's take on other people's characters. I approve her bathingsuit choice for Sakura.
List of characters:
Front centre : Nami and Sakura (easily tellable)
Right of Nami, position :
Nami --> Orihime --> Miho (Bakuman) --- /Rin (Toriko)
......................................................... \- Kagura (Gintama)
Left of Sakura :
...............Tamako Sensei (Inumaru) <---Tsurara (Nurarihon) --\
Reiko (Kochikame) <---Himeko (Sket Dance) <--- Kyoko (Reborn) <---Sakura
Top Roll :
Amamiya --> Shino (heroine of Metallica Metalluca) --> Shinya (Hogenkittensu no Shinigami) --> Takana Shirakawa (Pyuu to Fuku! Jaguar) --> Chika-chan (note: the little girl) (Shonen Shikku) ---> Hana (Oumagatoki Zoo) --> Riko/Coach (Kuroko no Basket) --> Nene (SWOT) --> Medaka (Medaka Box) --> Aoi (Beelzebub)
Now that I look at it longer.... is it just me, or does anybody else feel like we're playing a dating sim with the JUMP girls?? (oh god, that would be a dream come true!!!) I mean, Nami is "handing out" the ice cream in the picture.... and I think, Kawakittena's art is actually perfect for it!!!
