Hell if enough people like it it might roll into the whole MOTU universe, even a new toy line.
They changed up the designs pretty heavily but IMO for the best and you can still tell who most of the characters are meant to be, they tend to have the same colour schemes at least and some costume elements. I wouldn't call the style " teen titans doodle sketch" style but it is based on a lot on a lot of indie comic stuff like Noelle Stevenson's own Nimona.

I like the visual diversity of the show personally, it reminds me of the design philosophy of TF2 and Overwatch where every character has their own distinct thing going on. Too often 80s cartoon characters just looked like recolours with a few accessories swapped. Obviously that makes this harder to make toys for, but they'd probably be more desirable if it takes off.

my only complaint with the art style is that it's sometimes a bit *too* flat(though the original cartoon had even less shading keep in mind) and they were maybe a bit too afraid to give some characters chest definitions at all. But it has it's own style going on and it works for it.
