Is there any merit to this test? Seems like it really favors wacky shaped characters.

Looks like a bald spot

I hear that basically good designs usually can pass it but that doesn't automatically make it a good design.
this is kind of cheating

I kind of like the "character design tells a story" way of grading character designs. Is this legit or does it just encourage throwing stuff on a character?

Left, Snax. Right, moot.

it's a meme rule jerked off by Any Forumsfags to justify lazy 3/4 poses in cartoons for babies
you can blame valve for mentioning it in a tf2 interview

not a silhouette, retard.

That's what I expected. Thanks for the new term.

Thing is with the tf2 thing its about specific classes and what the enemy is holding being easily recognizable in gameplay, has little to do with anime character design.

Maybe that one guy with the giant chainsaws sticking out of his face and hands?

Pretty sure most people are referencing Gintama

Chainsaw Man's design is iconic

It’s more legit than just “can you recognise their silhouette” at least.

A shit ton of characters from the isekai genre would have flunked the test.

This test is for childrens show and mascots you retards. If your character does pass it it means its probably a kids how like hunter x hunter.
