So apparently this is actually the cover page of the official strategy guide book for the PS2 game "魔法先生ネギま! 1時間目 お子ちゃま先生は魔法使い! (Mahou Sensei Negima! 1-Jikanme ~Okochama Sensei wa Mahou Tsukai!~)" by KONAMI. Someone just added a black box at the top left which blocked out 講談社 (Kodansha).

Since this is an official strategy guide book for one of the Mahou Sensei Negima! games and since the art style is pretty much identical to Akamatsu Ken's art style, I'll tag it accordingly so. I apologise if I used the wrong tags.

it seems to be a pose and an angle really hard to draw properly, i've seen some experienced artists mess up

The problem was the proportion. If you want bigger tits displayed, then you need to shrink the proportion of the torso in the picture. If you want both tits and ass as major focus, the whole trunk gets overwhelmed as result, which you can see in this picture as the extremely tiny waist and stomach proportion.

Even if it made sense if you think three dimensionally (waist from the side will look flatter than when it's viewed from the front) the result will often be so jarring that it borders on anatomical nonsense.

You seem to forget their organs go into 4th dimension as long as devs want it

Anime characters doesn't have organs. They're just a bloodbag that leaks blood when they're injured.
If it's not the case, most shonen characters would've died from multiple organ failures after their fights, not to mention animes where characters can survive gunshot straight to the lungs/stabbed in the intestines/straight up having their chest blown/among other things.

Just look at the average injury on series like DBZ/Saint Seiya/Bleach and ask if normal people would survive that.

"Bad proportions. Elongated torso"

The artist clearly does their work resembling Yugioh artstyle. It literally is well done piece of work just not generic anime artstyle. Cmon

I dunno. The torso and proportions are really off even for a yugioh style. Her waist is abnormally small, her shoulders should not bend back like that and everything from her waist to her chest is either too small and long.
