Outsider Character Pics!
I just love character picture generators. They're a godsend for people like me who can't draw to save their lives. XD *squee*
I've been dying for ages to have some way to create pictures of the characters in Outsider, since some of them differ quite a bit in appearance from their UotFG incarnations.
Ta-daaaa!
I have completed pictures of Hiroshi (Mitsukake), Karuko (Hotohori), Keiji (Chichiri), Ryuen (Nuriko), Shun (Chiriko), and, of course... Tasuki. I didn't do Taka because he looks the same as in the OAVs.
No, I don't think Keiji's glasses have ever been mentioned in the story. Yet every time I picture Keiji in my head, he's wearing these little John Lennon glasses, kinda like Father Olivier in Gestalt. Maybe they're just for show? A random search looking for a different anime character whom I recalled wearing little round glasses found a forum post from AnimeNation about anime characters with glasses:
"Since eyeglasses, as they're depicted in anime, often denote intelligence, wisdom, and intensive thought, it shouldn't be surprising to see eyeglasses sometimes associated with scheming, nefarious villains. Eyeglasses imply that the wearer is calculating and rational, always examining the most efficient way to achieve a goal. Furthermore, glasses cover and hide the eyes. Sometimes glasses with swirl lenses are used as a visual signifier to reveal that the character doesn't see the world clearly. Reflections on glasses that hide the eyes prevent others from clearly seeing the character's expression and reading the person's objectives. Gendo Ikari, for example, isn't a conventionally evil person, but he hides his motivations and goals, using his glasses to prevent anyone from seeing the expression behind his eyes."

Chichiri/Keiji isn't evil, of course, but he's certainly a deep/thoughtful/rational character; maybe that's the reason my subconscious is putting glasses on him? It also keeps trying to put a suit and tie on Taiten, probably because Taiten is based partly on Rude from Final Fantasy 7 (whose seiyuu he is named for) and partly on Tamura from Please Save My Earth, especially his appearance.
Anyway, hope you like the pics. ^^;
