Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember a screenshot or something of him mentioning that he hated the anime style but it was the only quick way to bring his vision to life, and that someday he'd like to remake it in a non-anime style.

Yeah Id like to see that cause im not sure I believe it.
He does the anime style very well and it's abundantly clear he has artistic vision with it given the composition of some shots.
Look at Nodoka being murdered by Ami, the eye pop especially.
Also Molly and her weeb notes.
While waiting for a confirmation, I'd say that the anime style comes off very well because of his artistic vision. Otherwise, he'd just do basic KK shots with the poses he needs to show. His perfectionism allows for nothing other than the best given the amount of work you have to do with KK for the lighting in his scene to come off as miles better as other games that use KK.
Wasn't it that he would prefer 2D and only uses 3D / Koikatsu because he has little drawing ability? Selebus is an Actual Weeb and it seems unlikely to me that in any reality he would make something non-anime (if by "non-anime" we're referring to the more realistic Daz 3D / whatever style used in most 3D WEGs). I recall a comment that if not for Koikatsu then LiL would never exist because he wouldn't be satisfied with the art he could produce on his own, but he plans to resolve that by hiring an artist for his upcoming yuri game, not by doing something non-anime. (Then again, maybe his dream is to make a VN taking place in Australia with a photorealistic recreation of Steve Irwin as the primary hero.)
I don't know how much of this has already been discussed here, pls point out the things I missed.
hopefully this will be my final theory so I can stop ruining my poor sleep schedule
I think there is both evidence suggesting Akira is USER4, and also that suggests he isn't. This is an old topic of discussion by now.
He could fit, surely, as USER4 is said to be (possibly) the thing that will swallow the other three and become the whole. But it could just as easily be something else, as USER4 is also associated with the form brought forth before the fourth could take form (from when Ami is lost in the old district).
As to Akira creating Nao-chan, I don't think so. She was sent to help him and Kaori (possibly), so unless there's a conscious another Akira helping our Akira, that'd be weird.
