   why do all the anime girls from particular animes have noses that look like it was a snout and someone lopped the end of it off at perhaps the most inconvenient angle possible?
   
   i dont understand. it makes them look like they're hogs with human heads and bodies.
   
   signed sincerely,
   appreciator of the natural human form, therein the above is not how to draw a nose, as it is not lifelike.
   
   do they eat ants like an aardvark ? what am i missing here ?

     @Zerglingman dont be a jerk. ;)
     
     you can see examples of this in @s 's timeline.
     
     sometimes not but sometimes yes.
     
     i just dont understand.
     
     anime seems to waffle between two extremes:
     
     no nose, or the snout thingy.
     
     and unless it's a chimeric hybrid, it needs a nose..

     @ringo @s My point is that anime style frequently goes full retard. It's part of the fun.
     Anime is meant to be cute, not realistic. And cheap.

     @Zerglingman @s
     
     to me it feels confusing. :)
     
     i like it when characters have a proper face.
     
     maybe i'm not getting something, but if its that hard to draw, why not include a proper nose ?

     @Zerglingman @s @ringo not to mention there's plenty of anime where noses are actually drawn in a realistic manner, like jojo or fist of the north star, i'd say it's more of an oldschool thing to have realistic noses, not that you really need it to tell a serious story, madoka magica did well with a cutesy artstyle

     @ringo @s @Zerglingman it's a matter of looking around really, there's all sorts of stuff, also worth looking at stuff like OVAs and full motion stuff, those tend to have better animation quality

     @ringo @s @Zerglingman yea it's a whole different world really, realism isn't the first and foremost concern there unless you're making something niche that involves accuracy, initial D had keiichi tsuchiya supervising it to make sure all the driving is accurate

     @Zerglingman @s @ringo rightfully so, the noses wouldn't be interesting in an anime about street racing

     @ringo @s @Zerglingman The simpler depictions make the viewer more emotionally connected because the brain fills in the blanks with that person's ideal. That's as long as it doesn't look too fake or too real, which sets fight or flight instincts off. The mind is a weird thing.

     @iamtakingiteasy @Zerglingman @ringo @s honestly i thought about it, but that one's got gambling elements in it, so we need an anime that's strictly about noses and nose related bullying and a character with a regular or moeblob nose showing up and it being about noses you get what i mean

     @Zerglingman @s @ringo Rayearth has typical shoujo noses, sometimes they just go with a dot for a nose instead.
