Post the worst of the worst character designs you can find. From the uncannily realistic to terrible reboots to oversexualized. It doesn't matter if it's from movies, TV, video games, comics, just has to be awful.

>>303192There are some good designs up to gen 7 or even 8. However the amount of bad designs increases with the gen number.
Gen 5 had a bunch of good ones. Gen 6 had too few new Pokemon to leave an impression but it had a mix of good and bad. Gen 7 is where it truly went to shit even though a few designs were still good. One of the few designs I liked from gen 8 was Corviknight.
The problem, I think, is that more and more people started to design pokemon, same with the human characters, so the franchise started to stray from the characteristic style it had for the first few generations.
Also, it's not like all of the pokemon starting from gen 5 are automatically bad and all of the designs before that were perfect, that's such a genwunner take. A lot of Gen 1 pokemon in particular are so fucking boring to me and don't seem to make sense, like they were designed in a hurry. But generally, yeah, the first 4 generations had better pokemon that actually looked like pokemon and quality started to decline after that.

These two are white blood cells. Why does the female one have huge knockers out even though the male one is normally dressed? It doesn't make sense since this version of Cells at Work! she's in takes place in a much darker and edgier theme where hell breaks lose. How am I suppose to take this seriously when her tits are out making herself more vulnerable to enemies and foes? Are the audience supposed to feel worried and aroused at the same time? It's unnecessary, retarded and cringe just like Highschool of the Dead. I like the idea of surviving in an apocalypse or in a world being swallowed by danger and disaster but designing the girls to look sexy with skin out and to appeal horny moids just ruins it and breaks the seriousness and immersion of the theme.

Anyone else bothered by the women in the new Final Fantasy? The concept art looks good but somehow gets lost in translation to 3D because of weird-looking proportions (I think tiny heads/necks too long?) and extremely mousey faces. Meanwhile the men all look great. Jill’s unnecessarily low ponytail behind her ears and gray hair make her look extra mouse-like.

Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress is excellent, I’m enjoying the fuck out of it, but MC’s design is so ugly. He’s very green in comparison to all the other characters, his one lens glasses look stupid af, his hair style is ugly, his clothes are ugly, and why does he have all those marks on his body that the other MC (also a kabaneri) doesn’t have? Can’t wait for this dude to get a hair cut or different fit or something. The purple pants ain’t it.

>>305403>where they want to appeal to men while also trying to get a female audience without threatening the male fantasy.Exactly what I was going to say kek. If they had made the male android appear the same age as 2B and a bishonen/biseinen, male players would've felt threatened and cucked by him. Making him a shota also helps attract pornsick moids who are into straight shota (usually for self-insert purposes) or "femboys".
It's kinda fucked up that their way to attract female players is making the male character look like an underage teenager instead of a young adult man, just because they don't want to make moids uncomfortable.

No. 305601
>>305460>>305477>please leave tinkaton out of thisI second this, tinkaton is cute and fun!
While I find the other 2 quite ugly I don't think the things anon complained about are right in this case. Gholdengo is made of solid gold, the eyes are just rings etched into the gold. And Palafin is a superhero wearing a mask/swimming goggles, they both make thematic sense to me. As for arms blending in with body parts… that's been a pokemon thing since gen 1, just look at like mankey or poliwrath so I don't see what the issue is there? But I can't stress enough that gen 9 designs are not at all my taste and is possibly the ugliest region we've ever had overall. But that's just because they deliberately give each region its own "style", I for one adore pretty much every gen 7 pokemon but I've heard others say it's the worst region and them loving these new gen 9 pokemon.

Originally she was going to be a more active despair character meant to contrast with Komaeda (encouraging people to not do anything aside from lay around in despair, while Komaeda encouraged people to kill for hope), but that got scrapped so she was just left with literally no personality aside from 'lol meat'.
Sucks because her original design and concept were really cool and I would have wanted to see the ideological debates she and Komaeda got into.

>>306816>>306810The whole thing about her having a coomery design bothers me because it doesn't even fit her personality and it's such missed potential. She's supposed to be a gymnast but nothing about this design screams athletic. They could have even made her sexy with a skintight gymnast outfit but they had to go for this generic, shitty take on a gyaru (I think junko's design from the same franchise is a very shitty take on japanese street fashion). But at least it fits Junko's personality, it doesn't even fit Akane. Picrel - I think Tenko from the third game really suffers from the same problem as Akane, her design is far too girly (yet also somewhat unappealing to coomers, she doesn't seem to have many fans) and doesn't fit her martial arts talent at all or reflect her personality very well. I am a danganronpa fan but gosh some of the designs in this franchise are hot garbage and I could totally sperg for paragraphs but I wont.

I posted some hero shooter characters in the last thread but god they haven't gotten any better. OW2 designs are still garbage and the most recent champion in paladins looks like picrel. I know probably no one else cares about these games anymore but I cant stand the shit-tier coomerbait designs when this game used to actually make good designs, including sexy ones! I mean this character is supposed to be the queen of demons or whatever she just looks like some generic monster bitch with the most ridiculous proportions and an outfit boring as sin. You can tell this was made for weird moid fetishes (peep the fucking FEET) . Also just one more cherry on top of the cake she's supposed to be black but imo the design does nothing to actually match that, like her skin looks way too light. Its just more lazy, ugly coomershit and hero shooters are honestly just filled with garbage designs now, not even just coomerbait ones.
