The Eyes Have It! (New waste of time/game)

Post by kymaera »

Thought I'd try this and see how well it goes.

I'll post five pictures of anime characters and ask you to identify them. The
catch is that I'll only post their eyes. See if you can figure out who it is just
from that.

Some rules to help things along:
- Unless otherwise specified, I'll only post things from anime/manga series
that have had at least one volume released in the US
- I'll try to use screencaps/official art or fan-art that I feel is really close to
the original style.
- Post your guesses (with the appropriate number so we know which you
mean) and as people guess correctly, I'll reveal the full images.
- Limit your guesses to once in a 24 hour period to allow all a chance to play.

Theme #1: Random picks from my image folder to get us started!

#1: Image

#2: Image

#3: Image

#4: Image

#5: Image

Btw...let me know what you think and whether I'm picking ones that are
too easy or hard.

I see. I am not sure about your hypothesis. I loooooove figure out who it is just
from that. It's confusing.

#1. Kasuga Ayumu aka Osaka from Azumanga Daioh
#2. Motoko Kusanagi from GITS....?
#5. Kazami Mizuho from Onegai Teacher

This looks like fun; can't wait to see how many eyeball pics you can dig up. :D

And vampyreshoujo strikes first blood with three correct guesses.
(Though, I have to taunt a bit by saying they were the easier three of the
batch ;) )

#2

#5

You know, I saw those eyes and honestly thought it was a guy. X| Then again, this is kymaera we're talking here. :P

Dig up as in find in a folder on his computer? :P


What?! You didn't think I actually had a guess, did you?! Though I did guess the show that 1 and 5 are from, but I would have had to google 'em to get a character name.

Though I do agree with Shellie that #4 looks like Ed--upsidedown. #3 is looking mighty familiar right now, too. :shrug

And shellie gets one right as well.

This one was a bit more difficult just due to the orientation ;)

Oh what the hey, let me just be wrong and get it over with.

I'll guess that #3 is Rabi-en-Rose from Digi Charat.

Yeah that's right. Try expression yourself another way.

Heap abuse upon my head, you evil being.

I return with my second guess.

I guess you'll find out tomorrow when you're allowed to guess again whether
that's right or not...unless someone else gets it right between now and then :D
