So I thought I might as well depress myself by searching for SutePri fanart again. Specifically, SutePri fanart that, uh, WASN'T DRAWN BY ME. (Or by
calintz, for me.) If you know of any, please feel free to pimp at your leisure.
I know Teo's room has one of Pacifica. Short Circuit has one of Raquel (click the "CG" link at the top, and then ctrl+f for ラクウェル). And frozen plume's got a handful of pics in the sketchblog (click on "gallery" and ctrl+f for スクラップド・プリンセス). None of that was news to me.
This bit was news: if you try Google and give it enough chances, it will eventually spit out an info page for an RPG called "Limitless Fantasia." This is only because a couple of the characters happen to share names with SutePri characters. They are completely unrelated.
Take, just as an example, Forsyth. (Yes, I'm going to start spelling his name this way--largely because
feliciter made me realize how stupid it was to make the Bylaha/Weihrauch switch and yet deliberately ignore this one out of sheer, plodding habit. Don't expect retroactive fixes for a while, though.) In the game, he's a sixteen-year-old, trident-wielding fencer with blond hair, blue eyes, and a fair complexion. Also, his style is described as "繊細." 繊細 means subtle, delicate, fine, etc. etc., and just happens to be Chris's favorite word when thinking about either of the Leinwand twins or their mother.
There is no relation whatsoever.
. . . well, I got some amusement out of it, anyway. Granted I'm groggy and congested and on a couple different medications right now, but.

mea culpa
Date: 2005-09-06 12:05 pm (UTC)Aargh, sorry, only meant to indicate in my earlier comment about "Forcis(Forsyth?)/Chris subtext that Forsyth might be the intended name because of the gun connection - I certainly never meant to imply that your spellings were "stupid" in any way. In fact, never would have guessed that フォルシス was spelt any way other than the most obvious phonetic translation Forcis, if not for a seiyuu page for the English dub (Dave Wittnberg as "Forsythe", which is also probably a misspelling anyway).
Bylaha/Weihrauch: again, this demonstrates the inadequacies of katakana for translation, though accuracy of pronunciation varies wildly among the seiyuu themselves.
As regards the RPG: well, they do say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

Date: 2005-09-07 03:19 am (UTC)As for the RPG thing, there ARE actually a lot of Forcis(Forsyth?) twins out in the anime world, but if they share the same name, then that's a bit suspicious... XD
