I'm seriously into anime. (It's the only thing I spend more money on than Poser. I have about as many anime titles as most local video stores.) I have Aiko as well, but something about her just doesn't look quite right. Koshini, even though she's chibi, looks closer to anime to me. I'm definitely getting LadyLittlefox's male character, and I'm hoping she'll do a new female and male that are more standard anime. (And, in my mind, the hair alone in each character pack is worth the pack because it can be used without much tweaking on other figurse, so the cost of the two new figures and their clothing isn't scary for me.) No offense to DAZ, but the anime faces for V3 don't quite work. (Oh, I wish they did, though!) I have the feeling LadyLittlefox is an anime fan, while the DAZ people aren't - there's just a little something missing in the DAZ attempts. It's like reading a comic by someone trying to imitate the manga tradition by putting big eyes on their people versus someone who is familiar with the manga traditions and Japanese culture. DAZ does great stuff, but so far their anime-style stuff has been so-so while the Koshini stuff has been great.
