I think Yatori would just take it stoically, bash him on the head, then demand he marries her if he's so keen toward her, while wondering if his laziness would produce inferior Igsem heirs.Originally Posted by shinta|hikari
She does respect him, after all.
Ikta's pervy gaze does bring up a good point: there is some realistic variation in the character designs.
Matthew being a fatty is obvious enough, but the girls are balanced appropriately as well. This isn't a series were the only way to differentiate female characters is by their hair color, though their faces are all a bit on the samey side. It becomes a lot more obvious when Ikta calls out Haro's curves...the female characters all have unique body shapes, and they're not typical anime caricatures, they're actually proportionate and possibly even intelligently thought out.
- Haro has big boobs, true, but her shoulders are also the widest of the main cast, which makes her look correctly and realistically proportioned for being so well endowed, which matches the principles of anatomy.
- Yatori has narrower shoulders, but still wider than similarly-endowed girls because she's tall and is meant to be a sword fighter, so she holds them high.
- The princess is a loli, because she is a loli, and her shoulders and hips are still in a straight line, in line with not having hit puberty.
- Suya, the bitchy girl with wild hair, has narrow hips and even narrower shoulders, which plays into her insecurities as a character. They're permanently held in tension.
- Ikta's mother has very low shoulders, and wider hips.
And so on. Even look at the background characters when Kanna is getting chewed out by that scumbag. The only ones that are copy-paste are the ones behind the window.
It's pretty rare to see that in a series. I'm not sure which is more rare, variation at all, or mostly-realistic anatomical proportions.
