It looks like 90% of every anime character I have ever seen before

That doesn't typically stop people from buying a good game, fortunately.


I'd beg to differ.  Outside of Japan these games sell next to nothing for the most part disregarding a few games like Final Fantasy.  They are generic and most people can't tell the difference.  This stuff is popular in Japan but once again the market is flooded with these generec characters and I'd even argue that many anime games like this fails in Japan as well and can not reach mainstream.  If you can't differintiate yourself then most likely you will see little to no success.  The only reason this stuff is able to get away with it is most likely many games like this does not have a high budget so they really don't need to sell extremely well.


These games don't need to reach mainstream to see success. They've made a lot of these Atelier titles already...

That said, what are some non-generic Japanese designs in your opinion?


Pretty much what I just said. i underlined and bolded both me and your statements.

Pretty much all of this.  Just have to type anime in image to find how generic anime has become.  There are ones that stand out but for the most part a lot of them are generic.  NOt saying all of them, I'm saying a lot. 


yea, the thing is, the 2 sentences in your quote before the one you underlined say exactly the opposite

make up your mind
