Good afternoon everyone~! :]

So, today I was thinking of anime for some reason. I was looking through an old thread on the forums about anime in the off-topic section (LF Good Anime D8 by leobaloy), and I remembered trying to create anime faces a long time ago in Vietree's Beauty Shop. Today, I decided to make a blog entry on trying to make my character's faces look like an anime character's face (I tried my best with the limited selection within the shop). See if you can figure out which anime character I'm trying to make my character's face look like. Five points for each correct answer. Good luck!

Note: Please don't laugh at my failed attempts...haha...and also my anime choices. D:

First anime character look-a-like:
"Don't call me small!"
(something an archer would say...lolz)
Second anime character look-a-like:
"Nothing personal. It's just revenge."
Third anime character look-a-like:
" I stand for love. And I also stand for justice. And in the name of the Moon, I will punish you!"
Fourth anime character look-a-like:
"Guy-sensei is the coolest! He practically GLOWS with cool!"
Fifth anime character look-a-like:
"Tsubaki! Koten Sanshun! I reject!"
Sixth anime character look-a-like:
"(To Miroku) You. Will. Stop. Flirting... Right?"
Seventh anime character look-a-like:
"I was going to let you go; after all, there aren't many of us out there, but you're just such a pain in the ass."
This character is actually my level 86 cleric Peachbomb. Her look is inspired by an anime character. Some people think I look like Princess Peach from Mario. Does she really look like Princess Peach to you?
Answers:
  1. Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist
  2. Afro from Afro Samurai
  3. Serena Tsukino from Sailor Moon
  4. Rock Lee from Naruto
  5. Orihime Inoue from Bleach
  6. Sango from InuYasha
  7. Lucy from Elfen Lied
Note:  The names might have changed when being translated from Japanese to English. I didn't search on this too much, but this is what I got.

Extra Credit (15 points):

Does anyone know who inspired this hairstyle option in-game? Not from an anime, but in real life.





Answer:
A South Korean celebrity named Sandara Park who is in a Kpop group called 2NE1. She started her career in the Philippines, and moved on to South Korea to further her career.
I didn't expect anyone to know this...lol. Who knew there was somebody with this hairstyle in real life, and that it was inspired by a celebrity? I just found it interesting when I found this out. First, they had Kpop group inspired dances from Super Junior and Wonder Girls...

Green Bananas dance- Wonder Girls inspired:


Junior Pop dance- Super Junior inspired:


...and now they have a Korean inspired hairstyle. Very interesting. One of the reasons why I got interested in Kpop and other music from Asia was because of Fiesta Online. Does anyone know any other Korean inspired hairstyles in-game? Also, how many points did you guys get out of 35?

Anyways, hope you guys enjoyed this blog entry. If you guys have any suggestions for anime characters for me to copy (or other people)...please say so in the comments. All the anime I know is from Adult Swim...yeah I know I'm lame. If you guys are interested in anime and need suggestions...check out the link I posted at the top of this post. It has really good suggestions that I have never heard of before. Anyone else have suggestions for good anime?

Alright, that was fun! Until next time, stay safe, and have a good night! :]
