Anime Character Lovability Thread ♥

ok i'll give this a go .. and i'll make it hard for myself i'll chose the tsukihimi comic strip one where it's in black and white so the colour difrences have been removed and it's drawn in a simplified style so it leaves out a lot of fine detail

threepersonpic.jpg


here we see hisui akiha and ren

Hisui : the tops of her eyes are flatter than most combined with uncurved slighly dead eyes note her personality here eyebrows are useually arched high like this when she is flustered adding a certain amount of cuteness (she is a fan favorite)
her hair style is of course very distinctive

akiha : her eyes are more curved than hisue but are drawn very shap and curving down towards the center showing her iratable personality her eyebrows are genraly close to the top of here eyes of drawn with a kink in them showing her creasing her forehead in frustration again her outfit and hair is quite distinctive ... but she does have incho hair ... the hair band is a dead give away also her face is genrally given slightly sharper angles for the same reason as her eyes

Ren : ren is always drawn quite sofly with many lines light of blured as she is a cat deamon many of her fetures portray that including her pointed ears and the indentaion in her eyes. her eyes have also got much larger boders around them this is the simplified way of drawing longer eye lashes etc her eyebrows are again placed high and sligtly arced her mouth is darly shown as she doesn't talk and again her hairstyle is distinctive . her face is also often quite rounded to show here child like apearence .. this is combined with a semi-perminant slight blush on her cheeks (this is manga trait for child like charactors)


also yes the dudbbed voices are crap and in no way should be listened to .... the japanese voice actors are much beter and really give life to the anime

the yellow remark was just to signify that cartoons don't nesaceraly look much like what they are representing and just because you can't tell the difrence doesn't mean there isn't one

also with the "big-eyes" thing it should be noted one of the reasons it was copyed was because a lot of information about personality and emotional state can be transphered via the eyes
 
So how come they look FUCKING IDENTICAL then?

Same eyes, same doe eyed expression, even the same fringe for fucks sake.

Jesus man, I know you love this shit, but please....
 
i just wrote out a LIST of difrences you may not be able to see it but it's true

as for the fringe ren has a fringe that rises before droping with a center parting where as akiha and kohaku have sumular fringes akiha has much finer hair which break into fine strands where as kohakus is more messy

so no there fringes are not identical just as their exprestions are not
 
Ones hair is slightly darker than the other?

Maybe it's the black and white thing?

Basically, all Japanese anime characters look alike, I don't know why but they do.
 
Re: Nene in Bubblegum Crisis
Shippou-Chan, Bubblegum Crash came after Crisis....
As for Bubblegum Crisis: 2040 the less said about that the better....
Grimley
 
i can never rember the info about the bubblegum universes for some reason ... i only watched one of them for a start...

and i have writen a list of difrences to help point out how they don't all look the same if even this doesn't help what do you want? blow up picturec with rings around the bits like a spot the difrence competition?
 
right...

(also have you ever had some one come up to you and say "all 'X' music sounds the same" this is what this feels like to me)
 
A lot of house music DOES sound the same, sure I can tell the difference but as one genre and certainly the output from one producer is invariably is the same kind of thing.

What I don't get is why all the Manga anime looks the same?

Why are all the faces the same shape?

Come on, you know what I'm talking about.
 
not all of it does look the same honestly i mean i just pointed out loads of difrences but caractors by the same artist in simplified forms!

1000's of artists release works every year and how much have you seen hoinestly and how much attention did you pay? yes there are a few certian styalistic simularities but eatch artist is always quite distinctive

i mean a cople of shows i know show fan pictures done by famous studios at the end of eatch show and even though the art style is diffrent you can still tell the caractor just compare this picture of ren

with this picture of ren

http://www.yesalbum.com/v001/Shipou-Chan/1106933392557.jpg

the style is difrewnt but enough charactor traits remain to be albe to identify the caractor from thousands of others...

perhaps a lot of the basic head shapes are simular but so what that still leaves room for thousands of individual details... anime is as varied as any other art form

I think it is like saying that all western cartoons look the same. Scooby Doo looks like the Archies and Josie and the Pussycats. The X men look a bit like Batman (My wife thinks all western comics look exactly the same and are so horrible she cant bare to look at them). There are loads of other manga and anime that is done in quite different styles, I don't think I have ever go confused over different artists or different characters in the same manga.


I vote Lum for old times sake.
 
wow... mad bumpage

i don't get the populkarity of bleach... i maen i enjoyed it when it started but by the end of the soul sociaty arc i was yearning for an end.... and any show that uses the "i was only using 20% of my true power" plot device has reached a low point

Is it the one were the animation went all grown up and that by series 2? that fucked me off
 
Yoruichi_Nyan_1130921832586-web.jpg


Yoruichi Nyan (despite the fanboys stating she's a ladyboy)

bscap0465.jpg


Fuck whether it's mainstream...Yoruichi and Rukia rock...
 
yoruichi.... because a cat is fine too

not sure about rukia..... she is a decent-ish character but is a bit .... dunno.... mind you i do have some rukia porn somewhere...
 
That's cos there's about 150+ named characters in Bleach so far...what's weird is that Abarai is one of the main characters, yet really 2d, whereas Yoruichi or Gin don't appear that often, yet somehow seem like rounder characters...

Bleach is riddled with faults, but like bad soap opera, for me it's painfully addictive...all they need to do is get rid of Kon and cut down on the stupid *comedy* (watching the Hueco Mondo arc and the 'comedy sidekick fun' of Nel and her gang...jesus...)

Gotta say tho, I was MOST impressed with Chad's final form arms...
 
the manga skiped a whole arc as far as i can tell so it has a lot fewer characters.... only ones who really matter (untill the guy who are half hollow turn up) are ichigo and pals and the shinigami captains/vice captains

didn't chads arms go rather eva-esque?

Yeah, but since you haven't got there I won't spoil what happens...that's still not his arm's true form, and his right arm is the arm for protection...his left on the other hand (ha ha ha)
