I like it! It’s comprehensive, especially with all the info regarding his one-off clothing and designs, and the text itself flows well enough. Some bitesized remarks: | |||
*”and a mouth resembling a cat's” i’m not super familiar with japanese cartoon iconography, but i don’t think an overbite-y upper lip necessarily denotes a cat’s mouth. again, i could be dreadfully wrong on this though, as i have yet to do research on what japanese designers collectively understand as a “cat-like mouth” in a character. | |||
*”The gloves that he wears are inconsistent in design: they are depicted as boxing gloves, or as fingered gloves.” this may once again boil down to my misunderstanding of character design philosophy, but i think calling his handwear “boxing gloves” is conjecture. i don’t recall this character ever using his gloves as such. it may just be a case of stripping him down to the essentials, as he doesn’t really need fully rendered hands, and it’s also a recurrent design in nintendo characters (see: [[Mii]]s) who aren’t known for boxing. simply saying “they have been depicted as either fingerless and fingered gloves” omits any unwelcome suppositions. | |||
