Typically, animators want to give their characters the best equipment, but, sometimes due to budget constraints, this isn’t always the case. The following two pictures from Girls Bravo and Triangle Heart ~Sweet Songs Forever~, respectively, are examples of the typically tight budgets in animation.

Judging from this, we can see that Girls Bravo has a slightly better budget than Triangle Heart ~Sweet Songs Forever~. I know it’s sad since Triangle Heart was better in nearly every way, but who can tell what anime gets a decent amount of money these days? I mean, what makes Girls Bravo so compelling anyway?

Oh, right… I know why. Nevermind…
