I think she was a bit unfair on herself with the “charcaters fit in the same world” catagory. Having some characters be more sci-if than others helps with the post-post apocalypse feel; some characters adapt the tech, while others are much more immersed in it

[@njnjco]

15:18 Honestly, i think that "it looks neat" is a very acceptable reason to include something in a character design, especially if it's just a small accessory like these bunny ears in the headpiece Great stuff! The results are surprisingly good, especially Owlfred. This could be a series!

[@mertensiam3384]

I'm surprised that a scavenger idea didn't come to mind for a.... THAT toilet mech, maybe the mewing could be some metal plates on the robot's head and the toilet could be a brace(?) around it's neck, basically everything he's made out of are scraps from the environment post post apocalypse BUT I do really like what you did with the owl, its believable to me! Great job again pikat!!

[@shelbyjackson6903]

I literally wanted to make her draw a genderbent Kirito to tie in Aichry's anime girl rule and the Kirito part was simply to do a little playful trolling on Pikat because she doesn't like SAO. Do I think it was a very creative character idea? Not at all, but she pulled it off better than she gives herself credit for. My original idea was a humanoid kaiju girl that was the offspring of the kaiju that caused the crater via the radiation from the impact affecting a pregnant woman. But I have a reputation in her chat as "the one that loves SAO" so I decided to troll instead lol

[@Merdragoon]

Ester could have had that origonal headpeice where it would turn into a face sheild through tech, but the headset did work out for the yellow parts. The reason why the robots in those settings have growth on it is because they've been around for so long it's because nature is taking it back over and thus if the robot is sentient, it will have to adjust to the changes of it's body. Think on how old ruins of man made buildings are taken over by nature over time and crumbled away. Metal will rust, erode, and shatter when nature take back. I think you would have been able to do a bit more if you just *embraced* the whole "naturing taking over" bit with the.... mewing skibidi toilet. Maybe instead of it all metal, the "jaw" was actually made from tree branches. That way it would have also brought in more of that connection with the assassin nomadic style. Honestly you were kneecapped by Ester. using Kikito from Sword Art Online probably made it the worse case cenario, You probably would have gotten better if you looked at some references of Nassica Valley of the Wind to connected it better. Though I guess she could be from a cilvization which was isolated from the rest of the world and kept all the cool techie stuff that everyone else where the Owlkin came from only gets scraps from?

Furries existing in any series don't need that much explanation, if humans evolved from monkeys, animal people evolved from other animals. Zenless Zone Zero has furries, they're called therians, and they're called therians no matter how much they look like an animal, it may be a full on furry, or just a human with animal ears and they're still referred to as a therian, altho I do wonder if they just came about or if they were the result of experimentation, since their world was pretty advanced before the Hollows destroyed most of the world. Also suspicious that most of the characters have red eyes.

[@bunnymoonvii]

I think the problem with the Owl isn't that he's a furry. It's that he looks like a DnD character while the other two are more scifi.

[@xrosslegends1279]

@@bunnymoonvii Maybe the owl people have their own culture?

[@bunnymoonvii]

@@xrosslegends1279 I think that she should have leaned into the "DnD but with robots" look. Because without the "female Kirito" The owl and the mech both can fit the world, but adding someone who just reads as a generic sci fi character, it tips the balance and makes the owl look out of place.

[@xrosslegends1279]

@@bunnymoonvii I feel like just humans and owl people having different cultures is enough to make it work, just like in The Legend of Zelda BoTW and ToTK, and there being a SAO equivalent in their world that she managed to watch with old technology from before the apocalyptic event isn't hard to believe eather.

I think the first idea was way too specific and made it hard to fit with a still uncooked setting and aesthetic. It ended up looking more complete and detailed, but it seems to have made whatever else that came after more difficult to adapt.

[@lolsubaru1]

the first design of the skibidi toilet mech looked like gabriel from ultrakill LOL

[@hokesama4475]

yes please Do more like this

[@superbunnycam]

This might be silly, but the idea of the skibidi toilet mech being a battle mech could work. Maybe instead of having a more animalistic body, it could have a humanoid body like a traditional mechs in media, and the head part could just be the toilet. But the body looks more like knight armor and the toilet basin part looks like a knights neck piece (or at least how they are depicted in stylized media). Knights are also often depicted as strong and intimidating, so the mewing could just be how it’s designed to look militaristic and resemble traditional knights better. Along with that, I had the idea that the head sticking out from the toilet could also retract like the actual meme, but instead it’s for protection purposes as the head could be its weakness. Maybe in its “battle mode” it would look like the “Dulahan” or “headless knight” folklore legend as well. Perhaps the mech could even be part human in some way (maybe the head is actually just a human head like the meme but he has an extremely strong jaw and facial features, allowing for the rest to look round like the shape language of the other robot parts on the other characters, while still keeping that detail in tack). I don’t think anyone will see this but it’s an idea I wanted to get out after watching. I like your art and this video.❤️

[@justinsmith5870]

Old world obsession is a post apocalyptic and post post apocalyptic trope so an anime obsessed character isn't entirely far fetched. (The Kings imitating Elvis in fallout New vagas, mickey mouse being a god of children in mortal engines, I'm sure there's more) The robot could have had a statue or mannequin head as additional cargo selling it more. The owl falls into that category of "its scifi because we say so" which isn't necessarily the the right answer but maybe different gear or materials would have pushed more cohesion. Mutated seems the wrong direction for post post apocalyptic but also an opinion, maybe as subtle as a tail or (symmetrical) extra limbs like stable evolution sped up, but being 5 ft tall and tribal also kind of hits that? But all in all both the 100 directors and results were cool ideas. Could go in wildly creative directions.
