Mamoru Hosoda's Wolf Children for instance, which I think has a more rough and cartoony look rather than detailed and realistic

With this you've got me really confused. What exactly do you mean by "rough"? Because while FMA I agree is "rough" at times (which I don't mind at all), Wolf Children is very, very clean (which I didn't mind either, although it kinda bugs me because I still can't figure out which cuts did Takaaki animate), in that it is very consistently drawn and a bit difficult to distinguish  what animator did what cuts unless you pay a lot of attention. As for "cartoony"... Sure, you have those huge smiles as big as half their faces in Wolf Children, but any other "cartoony" things? Generally the character acting was fairly "realistic". And in FMA, the cartoony-ness comes from the super-deformed scenes and stylistic changes.
