Curse you Azumangadaioh and your similar character types!!!
:sweat:

Anywho, does it count if the characters are similiar in personality, and not necessarily looks?

Cause the one that immediately comes to mind is Dr. Gojo Shioji from Excel Saga and Mr. Kimura from Azumanga Daioh. Aside from the Glasses, There is not too much to be said from similiarities in looks, but they both have the Lolita Complex (Although Shioji likes em significantly younger....ewww.)

Anime's art style isn't as flexible as other art forms, so it's inevitable that there will be similiar characters out of the MILLIONS of characters in existence. :lol:

I'd say an obvious one would be Kagome and Kikyo,although that's supposed to be
intentional since Kagome's supposed to be Kikyo's reincarnation and supposedly also as she grows older she'll grow to look more and more like Kikyo.
On the other hand has anyone else noticed how much like Mika Seido from
Geneshaft Mimuru from .hack//sign looks?

Just about every male lead in in a "harem" show.
The scientific method," Thomas Henry Huxley once wrote, "is nothing but the normal working of the human mind." That is to say, when the mind is working; that is to say further, when it is engaged in corrrecting its mistakes. Taking this point of view, we may conclude that science is not physics, biology, or chemistry—is not even a "subject"—but a moral imperative drawn from a larger narrative whose purpose is to give perspective, balance, and humility to learning.

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge

well, obviously, because the point of Harem shows is not the males. :eyeroll:

all of tanemura's bishies tend to look alike... either they are blonde or brow/black haired versions of a character in another one of her series.....

Whoa, Ookami. Might want to watch it with those photos. Too much cleavage and you're going to get nixed.

Alucard and Vash DO look really similar. Red clothes and funky glasses.

In terms of eye color/hair color and personality, Ken Ichijouji (Digimon) and Eriol (Card Captor Sakura) resemble each other. At least I've always thought so...

Thanks for the warning. When a character is from an anime that has alot of fan service it can be difficult to find pics that follow caa rules.

I've always thought that Tenchi (Tenchi Muyo) and Wufei Chang (Gundam Wing) look similar because of the hair sprigs they have. But then again, they don't look that similiar do they? They do share the hair though.

Also, the girl on the first image attached looks like Blue form Wolf's Rain (2nd image).

Riza Hawkeye & Winry Rockbell(Full Metal Alchemist) look alike. Do their hair the same, same outfit, it'd be hard to tell the difference. (the girls in image 3)

Hige (wolf's rain) and Spike (cowboy bebop) look alike. Just take two black and white photo's of them. You can still see the differences, but without the differing hair colors they look even more alike. This might be because CB and WR are from the same studio. (Image 2) The names are there for those who are familiar with either show.

That's all I can think of for now. I'm sure there a lots more though.

Tenchi and WuFei? Darn it, but you're right! :grin:

The Tenchi shows are great... I basically grew up with Tenchi Universe and Tenchi in Tokyo. :eyeroll:

Sure thing. I cant do anyone elses though All the female comparisons from me are chracters from ikkitousen and another anime. The two male ones are from Excel Saga and love hina. My first post here are characters from Axumanga Daioh and Ikkitousen the azumanga ones on the left. The two green haired girls in my second post are from Stratos 4 and Ikkitousen respectively. Can you tell i like Ikkitousen? :lol: A warning though. Ikkitousen is full of fanservice.

Everyone of Yu Watase's main male characters look alike. Well, Tamahome is the most original one...but Toya, Koki, Kyo, and the guys from her two new mangas are exactly alike.
"Ah, look, Kouryuu...the birds are returning north. Can you see? ...Kouryuu. Who do you suppose decided birds are free? They can fly wherever they choose...but if there's no branch for them to return to...they might regret having wings, don't you think? Perhaps true freedom...is having a home to return to."
