I'm here to declare war on a specific anime girl aesthetic trope that is just the worst
Quinn Angstrom
last time it was the skinfang
Quinn Angstrom
this time:
Quinn Angstrom
that specific version of catgirl where the girl is just wearing huge gloves shaped like cat paws

god plurk PLEASE work with me
Quinn Angstrom
Quinn Angstrom
that shit
Quinn Angstrom
there's one in Endro but I couldn't find an image of her with the gloves on
Quinn Angstrom
but god it just looks terrible every time
Quinn Angstrom
stop it

(For images from wikias like that I've found if you just delete all of the text that comes after .jpg or .png it'll show up normally)
Quinn Angstrom
that is what I did
Quinn Angstrom
I had to rehost it on imgur
Quinn Angstrom
and plurk image hosting is just completely fucked right now
Quinn Angstrom
anyway
Quinn Angstrom
giant cat paws are stupid and look stupid
Niamh Vibes
It’s aggressively bad
bluecanary
this is like the worst of both worlds
bluecanary
no opposable thumbs
bluecanary
and also your spine is straight up and down which means you have human-style back and hip and knee problems
bluecanary
injustice
Quinn Angstrom
you don't need opposable thumbs to be moe
bluecanary
how does she feed herself
Quinn Angstrom
I assume she takes them off
Quinn Angstrom
or if they're attached, just shoves her face into the bowl like an idiot

Sorry, but real quick, what is “skin fang”?
Quinn Angstrom
so some anime girls have one fang, to be cute
so some anime girls have one fang, to be cute
Quinn Angstrom
and then some, completely insanely
Quinn Angstrom
don't draw the line at the lip
don't draw the line at the lip
Quinn Angstrom
so the fang just becomes a lip deformity
Quinn Angstrom
not as an error like. as a stylistic choice

(thanks rugby anime)

also thank you, i was also wondering what skinfang was and i hate it!
bluecanary
it looks like her skin is melting
skerple
fate/astolfo was the first time I saw skinfang and I hate it
Quinn Angstrom
skinfang doesn't look cute it looks like an animation error

skinfang always makes me think the character was made by waifulabs

Fate/ Fate / Stay Figma Astolfo Action Figure [Rider...

The weird thing I've seen is Japan seems to just? do this???? with characters wearing animal costumes.
Quinn Angstrom
I wish they wouldn't
Snowdrops ﾐ☆
here you go, anime boys aren't safe either
Quinn Angstrom
bad
Snowdrops ﾐ☆
and it's been that way since at least the early 2000s because I remember Spiral halloween art that did it too

I wonder if it predates Di Gi Charat or if everyone's just been copying the cat gloves and boots since
