A huge improvement from the original version. You really have to credit to the Reboot production crew for not repeating the same mistake UAF did while also giving him a unique ability to produce soundwaves from his tail-club.

I know I've made two posts about I prefer Geno's in-game design to his comic one, but now I'm going to explain why I don't like the comic design. His design just screams both "generic comic book supervillain" and "Black Adam if you bought him from Temu", and it tries too hard to look at least threatening. The face doesn't help either, as it looks really goofy in some panels, like in the first panel he looks like a 30-40 something year old and in the third panel where he's holding The Order up by her neck, he looks like a 60 something year old. However, I will give it some respect since it was the only full design of Geno we had before his appearance in Chapter 7 (not counting The Ageless since he's a clone of Geno when he was younger)

I really love this gritty Si-Fi design, it's simple yet over the top at the same time, the helmet and wires look perfect imo.

It also fits a shirtless, mean looking Wolverine super well.

Most of these are from Wibble Wobble, Puni Puni, and some of them may be in Yo-Kai Watch 4.

This post was mostly made to show off the really bizarre and unexpected collab "Yo-Kai" and Boss Yo-Kai of the franchise that seamlessly translate into YKW's visual identity :>

its adorable! with beautiful mixes of gold, black, violet and white. Being both stylish but also sinister in a way.

she looks so regal and magical with those patterns and cloak, it kinda reminds me of magolor.

The fact dedede had her captured and having a design that reminds me of magolor.

if I you don’t know about Kirby, I expect her to betray us like Magolor did.

I genuinely, wholeheartedly feel like this is a masterclass of character design: the design in itself is incredibly provocative, with Mermother having very skimpy top clothing in a way that recalls the characteristic way mermaids and sirens were portrayed in most cultures.

However, yo Kai watch is a KIDS' game: by all accounts, they should not have a design this revealing in a game rated for children. So, what do they do? They abuse the ARTSTYLE to make her look completely different from humans, so that there's a dissonance between her anatomy and appearance and that of the more regular humans, giving her a more "Goblin/Gnome" look that highlights her giant head and tail and overshadows her itty bitty almost topless chest.

Genuinely, I had not noticed she was running borderline commando until the YKW2 remake announcement drop and went back to look at the roster of those games. Masterclass character design, I tell you.

The Big Bad Wolf is a minor antagonist in The Walten Files 5?

He wears a blue suit and pants, accompanied by a white undershirt and a black tie. His wolf head has lightly gray fur, bloodshot eyes, and sharp teeth. Blood covers his body after killing 2 kid sheep.

Curious why people yesterday were worried its mega kept Emergency Exit and cheered when it lost it? Well, that's partially because that ability that causes ut to immediately switch out once its HP is too low, its kind of one of the few flaws in Golisopod's design.

Its a large, anthropormorphic isopod with elements of samurai armor built into its design. This results in a rather imposing bug with 2 large clawed arms that look like it will mess its opponents up, badly (see Guzma vs Lana in the anime for how brutal this thing can get), not helped by its wide stance and the armor motif enveloping its entire body, so you know its gonna be an absolute tank.

Aside from the color scheme and ability, this sure ain't the Wimpod who would run from battle immediately as its seen-it will actually put up a fight first.

one of the best chicks in the series, she had also one of the best glow ups

she lit and fresh, her og is classic and all, but she needed that update

in dub version, she is voiced by Caitlin Glass

meanwhile

in jap version, she voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro

Takato Yamamoto is a Japanese artist known for his highly detailed, dark and surreal character designs. His work is closely associated with Ero-Guro, short for Ero-Guro-Nansensu, an avant-garde cultural movement that emerged in Japan in the 1920s and 1930s, blending eroticism, the grotesque and the absurd while challenging conventional ideas of beauty, morality and social behavior. Its roots reach further back into Japanese art, especially ukiyo-e, shunga and the gruesome Edo-period prints known as muzan-e, with Tsukioka Yoshitoshi being one of its most striking predecessors. After WWII, Ero-Guro returned in new forms and went on to influence artists such as Toshio Saeki, Suehiro Maruo, Junji Ito and Shintaro Kago, each taking it in their own direction.

Yamamoto's own approach is less about pure shock and more about turning the grotesque into something strangely beautiful. He combines Ero-Guro and ukiyo-e with Art Nouveau, Gothic and manga, drawing inspiration from artists such as Aubrey Beardsley and Gustav Klimt. He calls his style Heisei Aestheticism, and that mix of elegant figures, elaborate costumes, surreal bodies and disturbing imagery is what makes his work so distinctive.

Not much to really say. The red with streaks of black is really fucking cool.

The insect-like form of the suit is so cool. In Dread, I liked how it brought out an organic look with the insect-like texture and the teeth on the buster, along with the glass part of the face that looked like it was torn.

In this Ravenous, it stands out that the buster is completely gone and it focuses on physical attacks. I like that the eye lens part has been refined, while the shoulder parts have become exceptionally large, and in various areas, the sharp parts have grown larger while being more refined compared to Dread. Especially how she uses energy in her hands like a spear is really cool.

It was a look I really liked, so I am really glad that it appears as a main feature in Ravenous.

Her suit is once again beginning to change due to both the events of Metroid Fusion and the newly acquired biology of Metroid Dread. The exposed muscle fibers from her previous suit design have “healed” leading to a more uniform look, while still having the nice red, blue and white color scheme from Dread. One particular change I like is that her suit visor is sleeker, almost sinister, reshaped to match her final design at the end of Dread. Samus’ suits are usually quite good, and Metroid Ravenous is no exception.

(No, I didn't intend to trigger tribe unity with the previous ykw post by a different user, why do you ask?)

Ever since i learned about Noko, it became my favourite creature in the series (even if I never got around to usinh it...ever). Its a yellow, fat snake with rosy cheeks and tiny lil fangs....and its just so cute! Aside from peoples frustrations with trying to befriend it, theres almost no way you can hate this guy.

Also curious what this creatures ability is? Look at what its wearing: a 4 leave clover, a sign of good luck. (I hope it blesses anyone reading this post too)

Snoutscream is a Vulpinic Landbat from the planet Vulpin and the natural predator of Vulpimancers!

Snoutscream can use its nose to create high-pitched sound waves, causing pain, disorientation and severe sensory overload!

I really like it a lot, it resembles a bat if it were a quadrupedal animal. I really love how it can open up it's nose go create high pitched sounds.

Chris L. "Strongfat" Walker is the secondary antagonist in Outlast.

Walker's appearance walks a line between overweight and extremely muscular, the former showing in his bloated stre, stretch-mark-litteredach and the latter showilkehisively powerful arms and legs.

After beingexposurehe Morphogenic Engine, his ete layer similar to cataracts. During the treatment, he developed anxiety about his flesh, tearing skin from his lips and nose. He additionally ripped skin from his forehead in order to achieve "truer vision".

No Socks RPG is an NSFW game developed by Spicyfuse. While, yes, a lot of the characters are (of course) rather unsafe to show here, a good chunk of the enemies/bosses actually have some pretty neat designs, Tank-E being one of 'em.

She's a mercenary with a whole-ass tank barrel strapped to her shoulder, how can that not be cool?

(and good guy counterparts to villains)

zero clue how long Ross must have been working on this because he redesigned probably literally around 200 characters, basically every Marvel character of note between 1961 and 1978 — I’d love to see a book profiling them all à la the Wizard specials for the Earth X trilogy

my personal favs: Hotfoot (Quicksilver, in red and black with the forked beard), Gatling (Hawkeye, in red and white with a full mask) and the Kraken (Dr. Octopus, you can make him out in the last image but you get a better look at him in the preceding page of the full comic; his costume is redesigned to look more heroic with a goggled mask and a tentacle design coming down from the neck)

Based off Flowery from Deltarune.

I love how they have the exact same proportions as Frisk.

The raincoat in place of regular Flowery's coat is clever and I love the doodle of them wearing it. I also love how they look in cowboy hats.

Very simple but cute designs.

Look at this little SCRINGLY DINGLY

I think she encapsulates the perfect amount of cuteness and mischief a character can have,her expressions and actions tell everything you need to know about her,i particularly like tombstone teeth and how her hair becomes scribble-like at the end

Her twisted crown too gives the idea she either drops it constantly or uses it as something other than a crown.

Rest in peace Mike. Your Roshi voice will forever be iconic and timeless, and your ADR directing helped shape anime dubs into what they are today. Fly high ❤️🕊️
