D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 is Anime! Wait, what?

...huh. I somehow missed that, even after looking at that pic a few times.

I don't understand why folk insist on drawing elves with enormous ears like that. It's just ridiculous.

Haven't you ever ridden an elf bike?

Parn sure did want to ride one.

Okay. I know (and am glad) that the "4e=Video game/Anime/(insert)" arguments have really died down lately.

Paizo has announced they're sticking with 3.5+ (whatever you want to call it). So, clearly they're rejecting the stuff that is 4e.

So, I went over to Paizo's blog today. That's when this caught my eye:

Isn't that... like, raging anime? Spikey hair, HUGE sword, etc? So what the hell? I thought Anime influence into D&D was BAD. That it distracted away from D&D's roots and its feel, and all that.

If i walked in an bar, and saw her sitting... I would walk out and go out to an other bar.. You know when she sits around trouble is going to break out for sure and innocents are going to die..

My god, what happened to that poor woman's upper lip??? No wonder she's so pissed off.

Wow, she looks amazing. WAR's art alone is almost enough to make me buy books.

What's up with the leather strap around the blade of the sword? Is that the Pathfinder version of duct tape holding the blade together?

 

[DandD]

All his drawings of females seem to have such blocky feets, and they all seem to like to show their teeth all the time...

"Rodent-faced" is how I've seen WAR's people described.
