Style guides, the director, animation leads/supervisors, etc. There are a lot of points during production to ensure that the tone and style stays consistent.

It’s not like someone draws a character or animates a scene and then it’s done. They will often go through multiple revisions to maintain consistency.

Animated shows are the same. And they usually have multiple directors working on a season, often having each episode directed by a different person. Just imagine how wildly different each episode would be if there weren’t mechanisms in place to ensure a consistent look and feel.
