Successful original anime characters get told, “Wait, you were an original character?!”
The thread image is successful, or rather, it doesn’t get in the way.
Sazae-san has a large number of original characters, including Nakajima.
>>3
Seriously!?
>>61
The area around Isono’s school is almost original to the anime.
>>74
Seriously…?
This guy is just a time-filling character and won’t interfere with the main story.
It’s quite unusual for the original character in the Jump series of movies to be from Dragon Ball.
Kuwahara’s sister
>>6
Is that original anime!?
>>13
It normally exists in the original work.
In the anime, it seems like there was a flag raised with Sakyo.
>>13
Although they are from the original work, the relationship with Sakyou is an anime-original element.
In the original work, Yusuke and his mom are properly lynching a yokai together.
Georges, don’t stick that.
I’m a manga fan, so to be honest, I haven’t accepted this either.
A character created for the anime that I didn’t realize wasn’t in the original story until it was mentioned.
The Yu Yu Hakusho anime itself is remarkably well-made for an anime adaptation of Jump from that era.
>>10
I think it’s amazing that the Demon Realm Unification Tournament was portrayed in an original anime.
>>10
Because it was an era without late-night anime.
>>10
The spirit ball of malice transforming into the spirit ball of spiritual energy to penetrate the barrier of the underworld is nice, isn’t it…
>>85
Since it was not explored in the original work whether they had become youkai after becoming a demon, it’s a notable original addition to the anime.
>>104
Thanks to this, I’m really happy that the spirit light wave inherited from the phantom world grandma hasn’t disappeared.
Georges Saotome!
Isn’t that the narrator?
It seems that the fun interactions with Koenma were a significant factor.
Lord Koenma~
I don’t mind minor roles, but I dislike those who try to take a big chunk.
Trico, etc.
>>17
The female caster is clearly out of place.
>>17
I remember there being an announcer with the CV of Nana Mizuki.
>>17
Toriko even shows up in key scenes of the main character, and it’s just unnecessary.
There was a group of girls in the audience during the Dark Martial Arts Tournament arc, right?
Was that original too?
Mob → This mob has appeared again → Is this mob a regular…?
An ideal way to incorporate original anime.
Kuwahara’s sister was featured in an anime with an enhanced storyline.
I was digging into Lightning Zen’s fight friends.
Famous ones would be Detective Takagi from Conan and Bardock from Dragon Ball, I guess.
The mysterious love romance between my sister and Sakyo was unnecessary, right?
>>28
I love it because it’s painful.
>>31
The video of the unbalanced kiss during karaoke focused on the episode of these two, and the atmosphere was just perfect.
I was surprised to learn that Makiba O’s child is also original anime.
>>29
Since I learned about the original work, re-watching the anime made me realize that all the passionate feelings about horse racing from President Honda and the others were taken over by the original characters.
>>44
That said, if I present the Iitomi brothers and President Honda just as they are, the screen will be too cluttered, so I thought it was reasonable.
It’s amazing how the story progresses steadily every week in the Yu Yu Hakusho anime.
Yu-Gi-Oh’s Rebecca
The only heroine of the tabletop game is this girl.
>>32
Becky Ω cute
>>32
So popular that I got to perform until the very end.
It’s amazing how it has a character and naming style that Togashi would likely draw.
Speaking of original characters, it’s Fuyuki, isn’t it?
Since Awako is too much of a compliance violation to appear in the anime, Kuohara’s sister is getting the attention instead.
I recently recalled that this character’s role is not only to stretch the length but also to increase the opportunities for Koenma to appear.
Chinpuu-dono has even released a character song, so it’s a success story.
An anime that comes to mind with a strong presence of original characters is Conan.
It’s amazing that characters from Dragon Ball appear in games almost every time like it’s a given.
Seeing this guy’s face brings back memories of his voice.
>>45
I dislike it.
Black and White of Blood Boundary
>>46
Instead, the King of Despair was boring.
I think it was a bold decision in the anime not to include the Ohtake rebellion or the epilogue.
It later became an OVA.
If it’s fine to have original characters that don’t appear in the original work, then how about Broly?
It’s the same voice as Akuma, you know.
I feel like there are quite a few original characters in games that I really like.
I mean, just simply following the original work feels a bit off…
I am grateful to Georges for brightening the atmosphere of the anime, as the original work has a lot of dark humor elements that can be quite tough.
Are there original characters in recent anime?
>>54
In the Kyoto Fire arc of Rurouni Kenshin, there are an unusually high number of characters with strong self-assertion, like the mob and the clueless police chief.
The original anime of Yu Yu Hakusho leaves a stronger impression with characters like Sakyo, Kuwabara’s sister, and Chuu falling in love with little Usagi, rather than the lively Georges. The latter character was also featured prominently in the Demon World Tournament, where the scenes of falling in love were really intense and not well received.
I thought the original anime creators are doing whatever they please with the story…
In the original work, they are just a mob character, but there are instances where they actively participate as a regular character.
There were also a sumo wrestler and a young girl, whose purpose I didn’t understand either, near Kenshin…
>>59
Isn’t that story itself original to the anime?
About 90% of the original Naruto anime wasn’t interesting, but compared to the original Dragon Ball anime, it’s better.
The old anime of Kinnikuman was a showcase of filler characters.
>>63
I’ll forgive the first season for struggling with source material.
Konita-kun, die.
It’s not very recent, but I thought Jerry, who appeared like Tomnyan’s partner from Yo-kai Watch, is an incredibly unpleasant original character, is this really okay?
Recent anime usually have only one cour, so it seems like there’s not enough room to introduce original characters.
>>65
It feels like it won’t come out unless it’s an anime that’s on all year round, after all.
They’re mostly using original characters from the anime for Pokémon as well.
NARUTO has a lot of original characters but also many original episodes.
Why is Sasuke, who has the ultimate strength with the Rinne-Sharingan, struggling against an anime-original character…
Since there are no stocks, Kiteretsu was sustained for several years with only original stories.
>>67
Seriously…?
>>67
This anime is interesting…
>>67
It seems that Tongari is an original character.
>>76
So that was an original character like Suneo’s relative.
>>67
The original work is really short, you know.
Many people mention Dragon Ball as a bad original anime, but the pain level of Kinnikuman is in a different league.
>>68
It’s really tough to still include long, cold gags up to the end of the Tag Battle arc, even after the serious atmosphere that followed the Devil Superhuman arc.
>>68
The movie version is also quite boring.
Golden’s darker works like Yu Yu Hakusho or Tar-chan can’t be presented exactly as they are in the original.
Recently… or rather, not so recently, but Blood Blockade Battlefront really mixed in a lot of original anime content.
Nabeshin
Kinnikuman still has people who harbor hatred towards Nachigron and Konita even now, which runs deep…
>>75
For now, if I leave it to Gin-Nikumansan, I can buy a few seconds.
The original anime for the Demon World Tournament is really great.
After the match between Yusuke and Yomi, I was thrilled to see you getting stronger and stronger in battle. Yomi’s line about Yusuke unleashing his spiritual energy from his human days and adding it to his demon energy to create a balance was just the best fan service moment.
I like the theme song more than the main story of Yu Yu Hakusho.
I wonder how Paikuhan is doing…
When a minor role from a classic original that I used to watch gets more screen time for padding, it tends to become mediocre.
It would be better if it were an original character instead.
Let’s put Konita aside for now.
The Nachiguron that appears in the great episodes of the original work, will you forgive me…?
Taro-chan had some hope and had become quite mild…
>>92
I was able to return to being human with my lover in the iron mask.
>>96
Even though it doesn’t have any lines, Iron Mask appears in the final episode.
>>96
These toy comments are good because they’re made by that old woman instead of Iron Mask.
>>96
I’m glad that the vampire arc was also significantly revised elsewhere…
>>131
The power-up poop has turned into pee…
The two loli characters from Rurouni Kenshin are original characters, right?
>>93
The old doctor exists in the original work, but he’s pretty much irrelevant…
Ninpu was mostly different, but it was interesting, wasn’t it?
>>94
After watching the anime and then reading the original work, I was like, “Wait, this is completely different!?”
I like the original work too!
>>94
I like how only Kazusuke got powered up, and everyone else is alive along with the master.
The original character that becomes playable in the game is only known in the thread image.
When it comes to this kind of thing, it feels different when you go from the anime to the original work, right?
Kinnikuman was having encounters with Bibinba and Phoenix.
Lord Chinpū…
Mr. Ajikko also has quite a few original characters that stand out.
>>102
Who are this heroine and her little brother!?
>>111
In the sequel, they say that Haru-chan is getting married, so you think it’s to that kid, right…?
>>102
The flavor of Imagawa amabi is just too strong…
>>102
Isn’t the anime itself just like a completely original anime that borrowed characters and cooking from the original work?
>>127
The gap between the Donburi brothers is amazing…
>>139
You’re turning into a beautiful boy!
>>143
I feel that the Donburi Brothers were originally an anime and were later reverse imported as a macho men manga.
>>102
I’ve read the original work, but when will Lord Flavor become Osaka Castle?
In something like Fullmetal Alchemist, there are cases where the settings themselves have changed before even considering original characters.
More than half of the characters are original to the anime in Planetes.
>>106
I think it’s different to just go ahead and do it without even talking to the original creator from the start!
There are a lot of filler characters in Kinnikuman, but the only purely original character is Konita, right?
I think if I watched Dragon Ball Z now, it would probably be terrible, but that’s just my childhood perspective.
I feel like I was interrupted by Koenma saying, “What are you doing? Let’s go,” during the narration at the end.
A large number of South Star Holy Fist users are being added.
>>114
Southern Dune Human Cannonball
>>118
The original work is a complete mess, so the anime is also a lawless zone.
>>114
What the hell is a human cannonball!
>>114
The ability to turn you into a zombie or a vampire is too strong…
It’s strange that the King Kai’s pet in Dragon Ball is increasing; it’s an odd original addition.
>>117
The one that wasn’t eliminated in the remake because it had an unusually high number of appearances.
Kinnikuman’s original work has been on hiatus, so it can’t be helped, but I was surprised to see a random old man appear at the end of the tag arc.
Toriko’s original anime was a rare original anime for that era.
>>120
It’s that vibe from a while ago… right?
>>120
There was a thread the other day where someone anonymously mentioned how much they really disliked a super uncool ending from their childhood.
>>120
I feel like jump anime has become the final victim of the trend where it’s okay to turn it into a terrible anime.
The original anime of BLEACH was quite well-made.
The Bount arc’s content is what it is, but I think it’s amazing that they created original characters that seemed to foreshadow the Fullbringers and the Sternritter.
Paradoxically, it means that I understood the worldview of the work that much.
>>121
I really like that original anime plushie squad that continued to appear in the ED afterwards.
The bird girl was cute.
I feel like I somewhat enjoyed it, but something about the twin Pinoko.
No, this is live-action and they’re originally twins…?
An example of a failed push would be the hired dragon.
>>132
I thought it was called Fire Dragon until relatively recently.
>>132
Thanks to that, anime viewers almost perfectly remember it…
>>132
I became sad thinking, “Why did they have to go away…?”
That insect-like thing from King Kai was original content, huh…
I think Ichigo Suzu from Cardcaptor Sakura is quite successful as an original character.
I didn’t like original characters that influenced the feelings of the main members.
Kodocha’s Babbit is a good original character.
>>142
In other words, anime based on shoujo manga from that era was mostly original content.
>>150
Little Red Riding Hood Chacha and the magical fairy Persia are perhaps prime examples of that.
In the case of Taro, the tower from the Chinese tournament didn’t die either, and Alan (Ranjera) also survived and was doing well.
The Sodom Brothers not being tampered with awkwardly and being done faithfully to the original is a wise decision.
Except for Crystal-sensei, who has been integrated into the setting, many original anime mysterious Saints have not been uncovered, but there were quite a few of them.
>>146
There were various characters like the Ghost Saint and Cassios’s brother.
The mobile game I was playing around there was fun.
I was playing while questioning, “Who are you?” without having seen the anime.
>>146
The Steel Saints properly reappeared in later anime and became official.
>>146
The Asgard arc is quite interesting.
When I was a silly kid, I was just happy to see things being broadcast, so if you’re only considering silly kids, I think it makes sense to create things casually from a cost-effectiveness perspective.
>>148
Even in Hokkaido, Misaki’s face in the illustrations didn’t seem to care about anything.
>>148
When I heard my younger brother say, “This is boring!” I wondered why he would say something like that…
>>165
I still think I’m watching criticisms of anime originals on the internet.
The hired dragon was killed by Cooler.
>>149
The false announcement has come…
Inserting an original animation arc into the middle of the story progression is something I’ve only seen in BLEACH.
I think that’s a sincere response in its own way, though.
The Dragon Ball image training episode is
I made the child version of myself misunderstand the meaning of mental training.
“Pigs are sometimes sunny, but about 90% is original content.”
I don’t watch it anymore, but I only remember the anime-original parts of One Piece and just before entering the Grand Line.
Isn’t it reckless for the anime staff to start the Android Saga in just a few episodes, even though Akira Toriyama deliberately left a three-year gap for perfect original content?
>>161
It’s too bad that the blank period before the last martial arts tournament in the Muji version was relatively well utilized…
>>161
Since the Frieza Saga, the story I’ve read in Jump this week will be available in the anime next week! I feel like it’s coming from a higher power rather than just the anime staff.
>>161
I really like the original story before the Cell Games start.
>>182
In other words, the DB includes original animation even while the main story is progressing.
There’s no need to go out of your way to stop the progress.
Everyone loves driving schools, and it’s the period before the Cell Games.
>>182
I like how Gohan, who was told to properly search for Goku’s Dragon Balls and have fun, acts on his own to help others.
BLEACH has always had some dissatisfaction since the Soul Society arc, so it’s difficult.
>>162
Honestly, the bad habits are showing even at the time of the Arrancar arc.
When the Taste General appeared in Ajikko 2, it was shocking at first.
Did this guy appear in the manga…?
The next week’s preview was a disappointment for its first appearance in the main story.
>>163
I’ve heard rumors that Terazawa-sensei dislikes the anime version, but I absolutely think that’s a lie.
>>177
If you hate it, then why mention the anime version so much in the cover illustrations during the serialization!
>>187
I was praising Chef Marui’s anime original episode…
Lum’s glasses from Urusei Yatsura
The power of the voice actors is quite strong.
https://dragon-ball-official.com/news/01_1643.html
It seems that the aftermath of the hired dragon was illustrated in the official fantasy.
Thank you, Toyotarou.
>>167
It’s an illustration that can only be drawn by a passionate fanboy… The original creator probably doesn’t even know about it.
They say that tricks like those won’t work on children.
Even though we’re talking about children, the age range is wide, so it may apply in some cases…
The long anime original of Naruto has ended, and Heros come back! It was cathartic.
In this day and age, if you introduce an original character and it fails, it would likely cause a serious backlash…
>>174
It will cause an uproar the moment it is released.
I quite like the story leading up to Goku and Chi-Chi’s wedding in Dragon Ball.
>>176
Is it the final episode of Muji?
I think it’s a good use of white space.
>>176
Last year, when Abema had a marathon broadcast, I laughed out loud when Abemarin-san mistakenly let the Ox King, who was trapped in fire, be ignored while they aired the battle with Majin Buu.
It could be partly because it’s based on a game rather than a manga.
The Rockman EXE series was almost entirely original anime.
The original elements in Makibaō are fine if you’re just watching the anime, but if you know the source material, you might feel that the excellent supporting character Majima Fukubukuchi has been turned into a villain and that Amazon Nitro Kanesuke’s contributions have been greatly diminished, which feels like a deterioration.
You can share opinions online, and people of older ages are also watching anime a lot these days.
The soil itself is different from what it used to be, so change is only natural.
Blood Blockade Battlefront has a vibe that I like, where even the tragic or ridiculous scale of the story feels light-hearted, so I didn’t like the overly sticky and wet feeling of the original animation or anything before that.
I liked more original characters like Sumire and Iwabee in Bolt.
>>186
One Piece used to have a lot of original anime content back in the day, didn’t it?
I thought the Gold and Silver Brothers battle in NARUTO was original to the anime, but it wasn’t…
The long original recap episode of Kinnikuman from the day before yesterday was good.
I never expected a masterpiece spin-off to be inserted here.
>>186
I feel that this is somewhat bland since the broadcast will end soon.
