Hiro creeps me out

Post Posted: Sep 26, 2011 8:25 pm

Okay, well, let's just say that everyone has their own opinions on how old the characters look...

Oracle is supposed to look young and be creepily old xD That's like her thing

Alisa I think looks like a cute girl that's at least 18(I think she's 19).

Maybe I live in a strange area where everyone is young lookin'.......OTL

Psh Ash can pass as older then Hiro. *Tries to defend*

But it's true, Japan likes making there characters look young.

Well when you think about it, Japanese people tend to look younger than they are by our standards in real life. So it's not so much they draw their characters young(although they do do that a lot, not saying they don't) but their art developed on their culture.

I didn't do it on purpose

I'm getting them from fogu itself, here's a link to Hiro.

But anyways, the difference between Hiro and Ash, is mainly the shape of the face. The older someone is, the higher their cheekbone (this is why most anime kids are drawn with round faces, since their cheekbones are basically at the level of their chin), at least in anime style. You can see this on Mikhail and Cam. Ash's cheekbone is higher, Hiro's is lower, and thus in turn looks younger.

Agreed, and there's nothing wrong with that... At least there aren't bachelor/ettes that look a lot older than the MC...

Yes, Japan can make someone whose 30 look 16.

To bad not all asians can be like that, curse you asian genes

But I can't imagine Hiro being the second picture, I guess his original look just grew on me.

You know, it's odd. I've never been a big fan of the young/innocent type before. But Hiro's tied for my favorite bachelor in this game, and that's just with my limited knowledge of the game. To me, he looks around 16, which might be a bit young, but people did used to get married at that age. And as mentioned, it's part of the art-style. Though kid-like guys in the past games were much worse off, I must say. This new art-style probably adds a few years to his age in comparison. xD

Anyway, I love him for his mature and caring personality, though he still has a spark of his inner kid in him. I think it's great to have a doctor that's interested in more than just health. So, I disagree. I'm interested in Hiro despite his appearance and don't really find him creepy at all.

To be honest, that second pic creeps me out. It's just too...unlike Hiro. x3;

Ehehe, but it looks like I came into the conversation a bit late. ^^;

I don't know if it's possible without action replay, but I've seen birthing event FoMT videos on YT where it displays Gourmet and that one Asian-looking guy (The shady salesman guy...) as the father... Heck, I think one of the videos had the Kappa as the father... But again, I don't know if those particular characters can be legitimate bachelors in the game...

Makes me happy someone thinks it's creepy too!

He grew on us o: Lawl lawl x3 I can imagine him as his original giving me a checkup, but if the second picture were to give me the checkup I'd be scared out of my pants.

Your fanclub's still at full force?

...I'm still a tad upset at how my thread got killed off. Blegh...

Well, he looks pretty young, but I think the guy's pretty mature and humble for his age.

And I'm finding myself actually relating to him a bit, which is cool.

And he's a refreshing take on the doctor bachelor. They shouldn't all be tall, dark and Asian stiffs, you know? Sure, Hiro's clearly still Asian, but that's beside the point.

...have I mentioned that I cosplayed him, and I'm legal?
