#23756th time I loathe official anime art

Even if I'm out of the Bleach fandom, and I stopped caring about the anime from before the fillers, I was recently disgusted and mind-boggled by this poster.

WTF.

WTF.

Okay, since when Ishida had that... anatomically incorrect body? What's with the monstrous six-pack?! Who the fuck draw that, an American superhero comic book artist?

The reason I'd do Ishida is because he's all dorky and sort of skinny. That image... not canon, and not hot AT ALL. Eww.

And now, an almost relevant meme...

Your Superpower Should Be Manipulating Electricity

You're highly reactive, energetic, and super charged.
If the occasion calls for it, you can go from 0 to 60 in a split second.
But you don't harness your energy unless you truly need to.
And because of this, people are often surprised by what you are capable of.

Why you would be a good superhero: You have the stamina to fight enemies for days

Your biggest problem as a superhero: As with your normal life, people would continue to underestimate you


LOL!

I think it's funny I got that result, because one of the original stories I made up as a teenager was about a comic-like superhero who could control energy, including electricity because it's a form of it.

I kind of want to recycle him, and write about him. Not like I was planning years ago, because it was a big cliché and something to amuse myself with (because I have a kink for secret identities), but as a parody of the genre. My current version of him keeps the fact he had always been a nerdy fanboy -in this Hiro Nakamura sort of way, but less hyper and cute- who, as soon as he discovered his powers, ran off and decided to become a superhero because it'd be hella cool. Then I'd add mocking twists, like the girlfriend noticing they're the same guy right off the bat, regardless of glasses, because they have the same fucking face and he keeps disappearing; or how the FBI discovers his secret identity because the idiot followed the comic book and manga canons instead of common sense, and forgot that in the real world people could and would collect his fingerprints. I'd also add paparazzi and an Internet fandom for the lulz. Also, he'd get to the dubious honor of substitute Chuck Norris in memes.

Dunno, I think it could be fun to write. The only thing is, I'd have to change his name. He used to be Peter, you see. Errrr.

Wow, Ishida looks kinda weird o_o look at his anorexic wrists xD

His papa looks good though '3' But then, I just stick with the manga anyway and I don't remember Ishida having those kind of abs anywhere.

That's because he didn't have them, unless something very wrong happened to them these last months O___o But yeah, it's not proportioned.

BYAKUYA IS THAT YOU?

That poster is pure bait for the fangirls. Just ignore them. Anime!Bleach is... Anime!Bleach. Not like the manga is doing any better but, whatever.

Yeah, at least papá Ryuuken is looking good. But honestly? It's not even good fanservice. It like when in superheroes comics the heroines have ginormous boobs bigger than the head and starting from the ribs, and have no waist: it's so wrong no one except the artists finds that sexy. Example (http://www.newsarama.com/DC/June07/JLA10.html), ow.

Who the fuck is that character? O.o Grimmjaw cosplaying as Sonic the hedgehog, or someone looking a lot like him?

The character doesn't have those muscles, basically.

E-e-e-ewww... Ishi is supposed to be a little twerp, albeit an anatomically correct little twerp. That's just nastyyy. D:

JA! alguien ha descubierto las hormonas... now seriously, looks like Renji's body and Ishida's head pastedeonyayz. What a cheap way to try selling more merchandise ^^u (aunque después de la parafernalia que han anunciado que van a montar aquí en España con la serie, ya nada me extraña... bueno, sí, que pretendan vender merchandising a niños pequeños EMITIENDO LA SERIE A LAS TRES DE LA MAÑANA).

That idea sounds funny, not only for you to write, but also for us to read ;P And LOL Peter... what a coincidence (ack, CLAMP makes me feel strange using that word ^^u).

Exacto! Es el tipo de cuerpo que uno le ve a Renji o al Grimmjow ése, pero... a URYUU ISHIDA?! Qué coño hay de malo con el cuerpo flacucho de Ishida para el fanservice, para que tengan que ponerle los músculos pastede on yay? Si fuera por eso, cosas como Ouran o Infinity!Fay no tendrían fanservice!

LOL, me acuerdo de haber leído eso! Lo de la que están montando para que sea otro Naruto o Dragon Ball (o más bien un Saint Seiya, que sólo vive en merchandising y reruns). Lo cual calaría, sí... si no la pasaran A LAS TRES DE LA MAÑANA. Mucho fail, pero que mucho fail. Debían aprender la lección con FMA, pero no.

Lo de Peter ni era coincidencia, sino un pun. Era para hacer la coña con que se llamaba igual que Spider-man. Pero ya Heroes me desmontó el chiringuito, entre el nombre y que va a parecer inspirado algo por Hiro.

Ah~I think Kubo Tite is seriously playing with the yaoi fangirls here. So much Dadxson action~!

But the thing is, that's anime art, not Kubo's. So it's someone else playing with the incest kinks to sell posters.

At all. Instead, Okami-ness related news bit/blurb:

Hey, if they ported it to Wii... and it picked up a lot of sales... then maybe Capcom would be motivated enough to make a sequel! (Very wishful thinking.)

Oh, thanks for showing me this! I always figured he'd want to make a second game, but it's a good thing to hear more info about the Capcom vs. Clover issues.

If it had been a sterotypical amrican comic-book artist's work, it would've been HELLA LOT UGLIER.

But yeah, I'll agree with your ew.

But still, you don't expect that kind of disproportion (more like other kinds XD) in anime art. Especially in a character who's supposed to be skinny in comparison with the rest of the main male cast.
