Well, Syon and Dino are indeed....uhm, "bizarre" to say the least. As for the others, I think they are quite awesome. Why not like them? =P NOTE: omg, and what's with that "rOy"? xD The only and glorious and unique Roy is from Super Smash Bros. Melee/ Fire Emblem 6/ Fire Emblem 7! xD

I don't like Dino's hair, other than that, I love them.

I think your problem with them, Sel, is that they're all reasonably generic. Adol, in and of himself, is somewhat generic. But he has a history and Falcom managed to turn his appearance into something iconic. These characters are all new, most of them only designed for this one game. And since the focus is on a great deal of main characters it seems... their talent got spread out.

I only really see two that I really dislike and that would Ramona as well as Dino. The others seem fine to me.

I agree very generic but really anything nowadays looks generic to me outside of Shin Megami Tensei series.

I actually agree with Seldane about these character images. I am especially unhappy about Lea and Feena's new "anime" designs. I heard that the artist for character designs in Ys VI is the one drawing the illustrations for Ys Origin as well. I really hope this is the last time that artist is making the character design for Ys. Oath in Felghana's characters looked much better IMO.

Surely you jest! Ys VI has some of the best character designs in the series!! Isha and Olha are freakin' hot, and all the guys look wicked cool. -Tom Word.

I have to agree with Wyrdwad, sorta. While I don't salivate over female characters, especially underage characters like Isha, I really did like the designs in Ys VI.

Damn... the resemblance IS pretty striking, there! Good find, man! -Tom Cadena is more modestly attired, though. There is definitely a great deal of attention played to detail on Cecilia's design. I would not be surprised if the same can be said for the rest of the designs.

Although dang...The official illustrations of Feena and Lair are up for download as this week's YsO wallpaper.
They look pretty pissed off in the image.

Hmm, good thing Feena has wings. She wouldn't be able to stand on those freakish legs.

Feena and Reah are...straaaange! Yet, kind of cool. There's some charm on it. = ) Dunno exactly what it is though. = )

I personally dislike the new art for Feena and Reah. They look too kiddish. I loved the art work in Ys 1 and 2 complete, but this is kind of "blah" to me. I like some of the character designs and I hate some of the others.

No, they showed what they look like "700 years ago" in the opening to Ys 2 complete. They looked the exact same then as they did in the present. Also, they are goddesses, they don't age.

And besides, they're only goddesses, because that's what the humans would think them as. They're Eldeenians, & I don't know how long they live. Though, Eldeel was probably quite old, & didn't look old for how old he could be. Actually, when do you see an Eldeenian that is withered & decrepit? Though, Alma, apparently died, so, maybe they do eventually die, unless she was killed. So, at the least, they're probably not immortal, but, they don't seem to age.
