Riku - Out Eeeh, it just felt bland to me. Touched on the basics of camp (zombies, gorillas) but didn't do anything original with them. And the squirrels singing about Axel's hips read more like an in joke than anything. Both of those things can be done and be done well, I think, but you just didn't quite manage it.

Kyou - Out ;; Sweetie why you gotta hurt me. First off, the caps were much too much. There are ways to get across anger other than constant caps. And there's a lot more to Kyou than his short temper and hate on for Yuki. You mention in the canon that he has trouble expressing anger and then don't mention the personality beyond the anger -- and there is one! He's thoughtful and sweet, even if he's completely retarded about it and messes up a lot. He is capable of affection. He worries about Tohru. He has things he's afraid of. You didn't even mention why he wants to beat Yuki, which I think is pretty important. He is capable of getting along with people. And I didn't see any of that in the app. There is much more to Kyou ( ... )

Mkay, so. I abuse strikethrough and capslock. Will remember not to do that.

Thanks for the concrit!
I actually didn't have enough time to work on the app and I knew I didn't. But, well, can't blame a guy for tryin' here, can you?
Maybe I'll reapp next time, but I'm not actually sure yet. ^^;

If you do reapp, I'd suggest canon and make notes on the different aspects of his personality. With trickier characters like Kyou it helps a lot to get it down on paper or computer text to cement what they're really like in your mind.

Typo demons are evil.

I actually am thinking of reapping as someone other than Kyo, but we'll see.

Thanks for the advice, and we'll see what I can do. ^^

Thanks for the crit. :) Is there anything else you wanted to add?

Re: Riku missingdream November 8 2006, 04:55:58 UTC
Nothing that I can think of right now. I don't know Riku's character very well at all, so I can't make any comments on the voice. If I do think of something else I'll leave another comment when I come back to make the remaining votes.

Alfons - Out First thing I noticed is the canon is nearly as long or longer than the app -- this really shouldn't ever occur since the canon is in a small font. Condense it into the very most important background points (2-3 lines is a good size for this part) and a good description of his personality. That's all you need.

I can't comment on the voice as I've sworn off the anime. Please don't be disheartened though! I'm very interested in having Alfons in camp anyway >D Just prefer the manga and all. The humor in the app fell kinda flat, honestly. The zombie reference was a bit original, but not really enough to make anything stand out. And I just thought the computer gag dragged on. The voice seems consistant enough -- I think you just need to come up with a better basis for the app itself. Please do reapp! ♥

Seimei - In Pleasantly creepy! I look for that more than humor in characters like this, and it wasn't too over the top which can be worriesome at times. Nicely done.

Ah, thank you for your input.

The canon section was difficult for me to write, especially since I couldn't find a good balence between explaining Death Note and Light's personality. I didn't take a final look over the application before I submitted it, so I didn't realise how short it really was. It's definately something I'll have to expand on in a reapp ( ... )
