My favorite female characters

Let me tell my list of favorite female character. Don't worry, the source of the anime will be told so you could search it right away. But, I think you don't have to because the anime might have been watched by you. Well, Sorry if my taste isn't that good. Whatever, I'm posting.

1, Hinagiku Katsura (Hayate no Gotoku!)

Well, the reason why this tomboy character is my favorite because she is totally my type.! Of course, it's only in the anime. Though, there are many cute and moe characters than this one. But, her personality is really the best of all. So there's no problem with her attitude and personality. Even if she is tomboy, she does have a bit feminine personality (if you watch the anime carefully).

2, Misaka Worst (To aru majutsu no index)

This character only appeared in the novel, not made to appear in the anime yet. But I'm totally waiting for her, although her personality is a bit too harsh. I think a feminine personality will suit her for the best, but I also think that she is fine by her way now. Anyway, I do love a stubborn girl because, without being stubborn, there won't be any interesting event with a girl right.? lol

3, Victorique De Blois (Gosick)

 She is really a genius one, even perhaps more genius than Ichinose Hitomi (Clannad after story). At first time, I though that she hasn't any feeling because of her lack in sociality. But anyway, thanks to that boy, Kazuya Kuzo, she was able to understand what love is. Other than it, she is really cute everytime she is annoyed or pissed off. Well~ ^___^

4, Shiori (The world God only knows)

Although she is really quiet, but I love her personality. ^___^ Why.? Well, because of my feeling.? lol. Well, being silent is a part of my personality too. So I do understand each words that is said by Shiori. Or perhaps.? haha.


5, Mio (K-on!!)

Well, actually I love all characters in K-on!!. But this girl's personality is the best of them, why.? well, she is cute, diligent, coward, shy, mature, and feminine. That's it. Hahaha~.


6, Namie Yagari (Durarara!!)

This adult woman too, is a tomboy. But she is quite mature really, and has that evil looking like she doesn't care what happens to everyone around her. So I like her for being a tomboy and mature woman, and her indifference. Sometimes she is too cold to talk with, so I think it will be hard to catch her heart. lol Just kidding.

I think the list should be enough. Though I still have many favorite characters, and because there're too many to post so I decided to give it a limit. Six girls have been choosen to be posted in this blog. As myself and for myself, I should say congratulation for them.... Hahaha~

Illustration, Painting, Drawing, Sketching, and Coloring

Well, what's making me so confused is these words. Illustration, Painting, Drawing, Sketching, and Coloring. Those words have been making me wondering what's the meaning of those. So I did think about them and kill my time to make my theory about them. Of course, the theory can't be guaranteed until you learn them in english language (in university, I mean). But I'm not a university student, I'm just an ordinary highschool student.

You know, I'm currently in holiday and have nothing to do except this thing. I will post some to kill my time during holiday. Okay here I am.

- Illustration

From the word, I believe that has to be something connected with some skills in imagination. The outline is very smooth if you see it, of course. It's because the thing was edited with some program which can be helpful. Very different if you compare with Painting although illustration does take some color to make it colorful or give it life. Though, it will be easier if I give a example.

Wow, what a great anime wallpaper, it looks so real. The artist is amazing, isn't he.? Anyway, This wallpaper can be called as illustration. Taken from the link here Illustration
Many pictures which is in the link are illustrations.

- Painting

Apart from illustration, I'd say that this one is rougher than illustration because I think this doesn't use any programs that is used to edit. Purely hand-drawing, in other words. The example is below.

Of course, it's amazing that the artist can make this painting looks so real (again). This sure needs some really expert skills to make one. Or, perhaps a long experience in painting enough to make you as a maestro. Maestro,,, I can say that's the final stage of artist to achieve. Pablo Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci, etc.

The link : Painting

- Drawing

This isn't a noun, but a verb. I believe it. Everytime you make a illustration or painting, the action can be said as "Drawing" because you are obviously making something that comes out of your imagination. Drawing is sure something that is connected with imagination. lol Just take it easy, and feel free to use this verb everytime you are talking about illustration or painting. Either of those, the result is still same.

The example... is here

 So, drawing is usually done with pencils. Of course, this can't be said as illustration or painting because it doesn't have any color.


- Sketching

This is also a verb. But the function is different. Let's see, drawing means you are making something then coloring it. So the result of drawing can be either illustration or painting. Then... This one, sketching is like making something but couldn't be finished because it was purely just an idea.

In other words, before drawing, you might have to sketch first. Make outline first then draw, like the drawing above. To make it easier to understand, see the example below. This too needs pencil to do.

After sketching, then you can make a drawing by picking one of these that have been made. That's how it's.

- Coloring

Finally, this is the easiest thing to understand. Simply, coloring is about giving some colors into your drawing. And thus, will become either illustration or painting. But, I think you have to learn the basic of color so you can make the illustration or painting looks so real. Well, it isn't that easy to be able to make what we see.

But whatever we are talking about this and that. What's matters is hand-drawing. Without hand-drawing, you can't make illustration or painting. That's the very basic of art. Still there are many thing that I don't know because I'm still a beginner.

Anyway, there's one question in my mind. What's a picture, anyway.? Is it made with camera.? I can't be sure.... Oh yeah, please do remember that this is only a theory that can sometimes be wrong. Don't take it so serious. Hahaha.

Deja-vu

After watched Gosick, it was really impressive as the story went smoothly without any failure. Though, there's something that keep bothering me... This deja-vu couldn't be bear until I used the screenshoot to post in this blog.

On the third episode, I caught this girl (on the left side). At that time,,, I'm pretty sure I've seen her in somewhere... I mean in any anime that I've watched until now... But... What the hell is the anime.? I can't remember it so well. Oh well, guess I will look for its anime which has same face as this screenshoot shows.

You.? Have you seen this girl or not.? Well, I'm trying to remember it back. Although it needs some time.

How is anime produced

This is only a theory that I made myself after thinking so long. And here it's, which is most possible to be done in the way. Thou may refuse the theory if you don't agree with this. But man, this is only hobby. There's nothing wrong with making a theory like that. lol

Okay, you should've known the basic of animation, right.? That's right. Many frames are needed to make an anime. For one second, needed 24 frames or so. Wow, that's so many, isn't that.? Randomly, The time of each episode is about thirty minutes or so. Then... which means, let's back to math, 30 minutes times 60 seconds equals to 1.800 seconds. Then times it again with 24 frames and will make you need about 43.200 frames.

Of course, you can't make it alone. You need a team, producer, director, and finally studio to make anime. There are many famous anime studios in Japan. Or so, I thought. By the way, you asked what's frame.? Frame... It's like paper.? Usually, every time you want to draw and you need paper to do it. So it's named as frame. Frame is a computer language for those who is using or learning animation. That's what I know at least.

The example of frame can be seen below.

Well, these pictures is just a few of those freaking many frames. lol. Just imagine, to make one, needed about 5 hours or so. So... for those 43.200 frames, I become speechless. Japan is sure amazing for making this.! Well, if you ask where did I get these from. It's from this link. Frames

Then, after 43.200 frames are made completely with background color given. Put those together into one, and becomes an anime which we are watching now. Of course they don't forget to put some voices for songs, dialogues, etc.

Well, that's it what I know about the production of animation. Thank you for spending your time to read this.!
