I make a lot of noise about lusting after Aiko, mostly to pick on my missus (long story, but mostly involves her reaction to my discovering Poser and the fact that Poser has fully poseable nekkid men and womenfolk - you know, the arguments that every married guy in here has had to put up with - she didn't mind it so much after I loaded up Mike, though...) However, in all honesty, I can do more things art-wise with Aiko, things that don't involve fluffy bunnies or prancing toonimals in any way (see me gallery for details) I find Aiko to be the more serious-style of anime character, and quite useful in a lot of other renders to boot. Koshini OTOH just doesn't blow my dress up as something to own, though... at least not at this time, I guess. I suppose that it's just me saying that, and it is not for any technical reason. IMHO, Koshini represents a benchmark of humanoid originality that hasn't been seen around here in a long time. I suspect that it's because she is a bit over the top in being toon-ish IMHO, and for folks who get into toon-like renders, that's cool. I enjoy seeing a lot of the pictures folks have made with Koshini, and there are a couple of morphs that make her look quite interesting, face-wise. Me, I like something a bit less conspicuous in that direction, I guess. Crescent - I agree with you... the V3 mesh was built to mimic a human face (any human or semi-human face, really.) Anime/Manga can be done on V3 I suppose, but it'll take a lot of tweaking. Aiko is DAZ' best efforts in that direction so far IMHO. I'm still anticipating Asciicodeplus' Anime Poser-mesh attempt (and so is DAZ last I heard), and there is an oft-ignored free Yuka character that has been out for well over a year now (her eyes aren't exactly mobile, but the body morph and head are quite anime-friendly, IMHO.) /P
