Chapter 454 The height of the game (for subscription)
About the hairstyle.

In fact, as early as when the "Yu-Gi-Oh" comics began to be serialized, Gu Miao told Teacher Nantong that it must be exaggerated and vivid.

This is the iconic design of "Yu-Gi-Oh." Wanbao must not embarrass the original version.

Speaking of...

The original Kazuki Takahashi is also a wonderful person. I really don't know what was going on in his mind when he created the manga.

Such an exaggerated hairstyle looks like a Super Saiyan, isn't it really unorthodox?
Of course, Gu Miao can also guess a thing or two.

The peculiar hairstyle of "Yu-Gi-Oh" is mostly influenced by the general design of "Hot-Blooded Man" characters in Neon at that time.

Especially Dragon Ball!
When Gu Miao saw "Yu Yu"'s hairstyle for the first time, she couldn't help thinking of "Dragon Ball".Perhaps this is just a coincidence, but he prefers to believe that Takahashi and Nozomi were inspired by "Dragon Ball".

Takahashi has gone too far compared to Dragon Ball.

The hairstyle of the game, because it is a "two-color" splicing, looks and feels more visually impactful than the "Saiyan" hairstyle.

Of course, Saiyans are more "elegant".

Talking about this is not because Gu Miao wants to join the beauty and hairdressing industry and go to work with Teacher Tony.

It's hair design, which is actually a very important part of anime character design...

Many people should know.

In animation works, especially those with "insufficient funds", there are often embarrassing scenes of "hitting faces".

simply put.

In an animation, the characters basically have the same "face shape".Only by hairstyle and hair color can one tell who is who.

This is most clearly reflected in the female characters.

In those budget-saving animations, the female characters appearing in the plot have the same face over and over again.Except for the difference in hairstyle and hair color, there is no difference at all.

Therefore.

Gu Miao specifically emphasized the importance of the hairstyles and hair colors of the main characters and supporting characters in the animation production of "Yu-Gi-Oh".

This is an important means of distinguishing characters.

Just imagine, if everyone in the animation has almost the same hairstyle and hair color, and the face shape is almost the same...

Good guy!
Now I'm really face blind, I can't recognize who is who.

In order to avoid this situation, when designing anime character styling, we must pay attention to hair color, hair color, and daily clothing.

Yu-Gi-Oh is okay.

At least the characters in it have a clear and three-dimensional shape setting, which can be recognized by the audience at a glance.Don't mistake star A for star B and make "please get out, you fake fan" jokes.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the way of distinguishing [game] and [dark game].

Well known.

The story of "Yu-Gi-Oh" originated from the protagonist's game. After putting together the thousand-year-old building blocks, another "self" appeared in his mind, that is, the dark game.

These two characters are very similar!

It can be said that it is almost carved out of the same mold. If you are not serious, you may really identify the wrong person.

How should the two be distinguished?

Height, face shape, eyes and expressions, these are the obvious differences between the dark game and the host game.

The most obvious one is "height and body type".

When Dark Game took over the duel, the audience could clearly see that Dark Game's height and body were more like an "adult".

In contrast to the usual games, although the setting is a "middle school student".But it feels like a "primary school student".

This is an obvious difference.

Followed by changes in facial expressions and eyes.

Gu Miao, who has seen the original version, is very clear that after the appearance of the dark game, his expression is actually quite serious and unhuman.

On the other hand, the game is innocent.

The huge difference in personality between the two is reflected in their expressions and eyes.

Based on these points, the distinction between dark games and games is actually not difficult for the audience at all.As long as the eyes are not blind, you can tell whether it is the dark game or the game that is leading the duel at this moment.

Gu Miao kept this way.

It's just that he thinks that in the original version of "Yu-Gi-Oh", the height of the main character is too "flawed".

It's fine to watch alone.

But once they face Kaiba, once they stand side by side with Jouchi, Kyoko and the others, it will be a complete disaster.It feels like a middle school brother and sister, taking the elementary school brother out to play together.

Isn't it, Sir?

They are classmates!
Although there is a huge gap in height between classmates, this is a very common thing.But the height of the game is indeed a bit too short.

Why do you say that?
Because from many shots, one thing can be seen, that is, Yuyu is standing next to Cheng Nei, barely reaching his shoulders.

This must be 20 centimeters shorter, right?
To be honest.

A middle school student who is ten centimeters shorter than other students, or even more than ten centimeters, is considered extremely short.It was the first time in Gu Miao's life that she had such a big gap with her classmates in height like Yu You.

Dark game height, almost "standard" height.

Gu Miao doesn't expect the game to be as tall as the dark game, at least it has to be a few centimeters taller, so that it won't appear...

Half of the city's body is on the screen, but the game can only show a strange picture of a "head".

To be fair, this is hilarious.

In order to facilitate the composition of the picture, it is actually a very trouble-free measure to appropriately "increase" the game.

Of course, it won't increase too much.

Assuming it was a real person, the Wanbao version of the game would be about five centimeters taller than the original version.

These five centimeters cannot change the fact that he is still the shortest person in the team.But at least it can make him appear less awkward when he is in the same frame with his partners.

the most important is……

When Kyoko is with You, there will be no such random illusions as "single mother with a baby".

"Don't ask, asking is because the game is wearing height-enhancing insoles!"

Gu Miao waved her hand, and signaled to everyone: "Let's stop here for the protagonist. Let's talk about the supporting roles, especially the opponents."

There is also a doorway here.

The supporting roles that appeared in the "Duel Kingdom", including the opponents, in fact, except for one [Millennium Eye - Bekas] and [President Seahorse] who are impressive, the other characters are not three-dimensional.

This is not a question of image design.

The main reason is that the "personal design" of these characters did not stand up and failed to leave an indelible impression on the audience.

This aspect needs to be improved.

Although, one cannot expect every villain or opponent to be as attractive as President Haima.

But it can't be marginalized either, right?
The person who can meet and fight with the protagonist in the early days of the duel kingdom, it stands to reason that he will also be a "celebrity" in the world of duel monsters in the future.

In the end, except for the hippocampus, which was still strong, the group of people in the later stage didn't know where to fish and paddle...

It's a pity!

　Saiyan's hair has influenced more than one generation, and I wanted to dye it when I was a child...
