What Are The Worst Character Designs You Have Ever Seen?

Then take a look at this "lovely" design then.
The design itself I like, but the over the top color palet really kills it.
Listen, I'm no stranger to weird art and stupidly over-the-top shit, I spent a good portion of my days watching adult swim and gook toons in high school, but GOD DAMN, this shit makes my eyes bleed. It's like if Superjail farted all over Invader Zim.
The animation is very fluid, so I’ll give it that, but the colors all consisting of either red, white or black really kills it and makes it feel bland, despite being consistent.
But I just fucking know people are going to make porn of that kind-of-cute main character.
 
As someone that likes weird animation...I didnt like it here, the actual animation itself looks choppy, meanwhile you get distracting backgrounds with way too much going on. The color palette is just obnoxious, and I never liked how Viz's characters tend to all look alike.


Does this music video count?
My issue with her characters is that she's trying really hard to prove to us that her characters are all intricate and insane. Now compare that to say...anything Yuasa makes where the weirdness just fells like it's a natural part of the work as opposed to the artist screaming LOOK HOW DAMN QUIRKY I AM Kengle-style.

Truly style & substance done well. Take that, Hazbin Hotel.
This is not sarcasm, either. That was some good shit right there.

one of my many gripes on her style and her take on hell seems...weird? i get she's trying to use warm colors but there's other colors you can use. like, she can use other color palettes but for some reason she ends up doing stuff like this.
 
Hey it could be worse. It could have been that furry comic she did as an animated series.
Is this the same woman that thinks Zootopia is a ripoff of her shitty webcomic?

Effie from Fire Emblem Fates. I couldn't find a picture of her from behind but she's literally a heavily armored knight that wears nothing but thong panties below the waist.

Unnecessary & retarded fanservice in a Fire Emblem game? Who would have thought?! *sarcasm*

And she has that dumb :-o to boot, that dead moe face. Even then its nowhere near as bad as this thing from Fire Emblem:

Yea yea, shes a bajillion years old and only acts/looks like a kid, that dont change how creepy she is. Its nice to see that Nintendo doesnt mind pedophilia in their games.

These are the type of character designs you get when a company decides to blatantly pander to the weeb/otaku crowd.
Sad thing about this is that Fire Emblem once had reasonable character designs; that all changed once it hit the 3DS :c.

Nah the outfits were always fairly skimpy it's just that it was hard to tell with the low res tiny ass GBA sprites. (this is official art by the way)

Lyn from Blazing Sword GBA does the Chinese dress no panties combo.



Erika from The Sacred Stones GBA rocks a mini skirt/thigh highs combo.

Not to mention panstless Pegasus Knights has always been a thing too.

Don't forget Sylvia from Fire Emblem 4. I know she's a dancer and that class wears skimpy clothing intentionally but it doesn't change the fact that she is still a 14 year old girl running around barely clothed. I admit there is a bit more fan service than there used to be but people love to hold up the pre 3ds games as a pinnacle of good female armor when in reality they never were.
