I mentioned facefaults in a previous post, which are more likely to be seen in anime and manga, than in Western cartoons. That’s not to say that cartoons don’t have them, but anime seems to have a wider variety and uses them across the board to depict standard emotions / scenes / wotnots – regardless of who the anime is actually made by. So, bearing in mind that I’m really a kind of facts and figures and useless trivia kind of guy, I thought I’ve have a scrounge around and see just how many variations on the theme I could find. (Ok, and it was also a fun excuse to trawl through my collection looking for examples. That’s another reason why this took so long – I’d often end up watching 3 or 4 episodes of something I hadn’t watched for ages…)
One day you might get deep and meaningful reviews out of me and I might blather on about artwork and such, but until the rest of the world realises that Picasso was a fraud and anybody who bought his work was a sucker, I’ll remain an artistic philistine and stick to facts and figures and useless trivia.
