Waay off topic, but somehow I can't see Sunrise sueing 'gokurulez5471@hotmail.com' over a file on Youtube. I can see Sunrise suing Google for not removing copyrighted material though, which is why Google is deleting these files in the first place. |

I don't know why so many people talk about CLAMP designs, when all they did was character conceptural designs, and the ACTUAL design is Kimura. I mean, haven't these people played those adult games like VIPER series and V.G? Sheesh! ....um, nevermind what I just said I'll bring up Betterman, Gao Gai Gar, Go Dannar, and Gun x Sword as example instead.

The one that comes up with the design concept, and the one that actually does it. Take a look at the girls in Code Geass, they are all obviously standard Kimura designs, not Clamp. The two main protagonists are pretty much the only ones you see Clamp design influence left. Would you believe NADESICO's concept character design was Kia Asamiya? Thank god it's not obvious. I hate that man's art.

Code Geass's males still have that CLAMP stench because Kimutaka's standard males designs don't have them possessing similar body structures to the standard CLAMP teenage males. Look at Shishio Guy and Goddannar's buff main character....Van was a bit thin though.
When was it that Kimutaka started to be a little more.....ecchi in his female design potrayals? Les I recall, GaoGaiGar didn't have the same kind of....fanservice scent. Take Mikoto for example.

But believe it or not, LONG before Gao Gai Gar, he's has been doing adult sex game art. Ecchi is actually his home field I agree the ten-head-tall proportion is Clamp stench left. He had to leave something from their design

Well if anything Suzaku looked extremely CLAMP-like. To the point that he looked way too much like a bit of whatsisname from Tsubasa Chronicles... Don't like the hairstyle. And I think Kimutaka can come up with a better range of character builds than that long stretched type, but I guess he wanted to keep them similar.
I actually did see a picture which had sketches of some of the characters done by CLAMP, but I don't know where it is. It didn't look that different, I think... But I'm hoping that the drawings in the show will at least possibly veer towards one of the Main animators' styles, that is Yuriko Chiba's... I love her stuff - even her designs for the original To Heart series felt very skilled and appealed to me despite me not liking most of the rest of the show, and I can't stop going gaga over her adaptations of the PLANETES manga designs: that was absolute top-class to me, something I judge other anime by. I loved her correcting work done in Eureka 7 as well... But it might just be a bit difficult to see her skills through these kinds of designs. (To be frank I was surprised she was going to be so involved in this series.) I wonder if those really nice shots of Lelouch looking deliciously evil were corrected/drawn by her.

Hah, you almost managed to quell the raging flames of my libido I have for her through unwanted imagery. Fortunately my iron resolve and hellish discipline managed to stoke the fires to an inferno. So as not to be totally unrelated (or too related, as I like to think), I'm unsure whether Lelouch and Karen will have any romantic connection in the course of the series. Karen might fall for him, but I think it would be unrequited. Lelouch seems the type who won't let people come close to him, and as I don't think this series will follow the path of delicious crippled incest, the most likely suspect would have to be C.C., who would be close to him unwillingly, in a way. |

I did, and it is still my favourite Super Robot series of all time. I specifically left out FINAL from GGG since it is....*coughs* you know what I mean.
Anyway, this is off-topic. Now that aohige-dono had enlightened me on Kimutaka's true niche, this argument is done.
