#redesign ideas

Do you have any thoughts on sirenix/harmonix? bc that's when the girls' forms started to get more formulaic/less individualistic imo

<3

Thank you •3•

Honestly I prefer harmonix by design, but can't ignore the sirenix song rocks

Harmonix is so soft and flowey, and I love the hair styles and seashell crowns

Sirenix is generic swimsuit meeting some edgy elements, not a big fan..

But honestly, my heart belongs to mermadix. This thing exited only in illustration and girl magazines, but it's so gorgeous

Made this character on Scratch Bitmap with my mouse back in 2022, since at the time I didn't have a drawing tablet or a program for my sucky computer. His name's Saka Len, and is a Zygerrian that's a literal scaredy-cat 😁

Okay in episode 62 Nicole proposes to Aphmau that she should disguise herself and then says this

So we know that at the very least Nicole has changed her hair color significantly enough that nobody has recognized her thus far. I'm just saying there's possibility for a lot here. Either designs of what she used to look like, or incorporating those into current designs. Her root color starts growing in over time, or after the 15 year time skip it's almost entirely it's original color because she's not in hiding anymore.

Okay so, the original sin colors, like the irl canon ones from the bible(Yes I imagine it in that voice.)

Pride: purple & lion(or peacock)

Wrath: red & Wolf(or lion)

Okay screw it I'm making a chart.

Here. These are the OG colors for the sins which I'm gonna choose to ehadxanon as their eye color

Let's say for Amanda, instead of being a pink frog with a yellow bow on her head, how about this? A frog girl with a light tan mouth & red skin that is in this color code: ea3c53, "Desire Red". Keep her indigo eyes. Turn her yellow bow into a yellow ribbon. Give her hair, like medium-length yellow blonde, & her signature ribbon would be tied at the back of her hair. Add facial freckles on her cheeks. & Maybe make her last name be revealed as "Lily", Amanda Lily.

& As for Lucy Hare, instead of her being a light pink bunny with dark pink eyes, why not have her look more like her father instead? She'd have Peppy's brownish-grey & tan fur. However, for the tuft(the tiny hair on head) & eyes, it might be better if Lucy were to have light pink tuft on her head that is in this color code: ffb7c5, "Cherry Blossom Pink" & her eyes would be darker than her BunPop's red eyes as his daughter's would be in a rich & deep crimson color. What if Lucy were to only actually inherit her cherry pink hair & crimson eyes from her late mother & Peppy's late wife Vivian Hare? So she can look like Peppy with Vivian's hair & eye color. & I now headcanon that Lucy's name is short for Lucina, you know like the Fire Emblem character, Chrom's daughter. Lucina "Lucy" Hare.

Taro Yamada | Yanagi, Aren 柳, 安蓮 柳 (yanagi) means “willow” 安 (a) meaning “calm, peaceful” 蓮 (ren) meaning “lotus”

(His is pretty self explanatory :) )

Ayano Aishi | Akahana, Tsubaki 丹花, 椿 丹 (aka) means “red” 花 (hana) meaning “flower” 椿 (tsubaki) meaning “camellia flower”

{red camellia flowers mean “In love, perishing with grace” I thought making Akahana’s named after flowers would be kinda cool and if worst comes to worse, like if they were rejected, they would get something like the Hanahaki disease and feel very sick. Most Akahana’s kill the one who rejected them so the sickness feeling can go away, others move to a different city or country}

Osana Najimi | Aiuchi, Eika 愛内, 永火 ai (愛) means “love” uchi (内) means “inside” 永 (ei) “eternal” 火 (ka) meaning “fire”

Info-chan | Kagami, “WuYa” Masaho 鏡 (kagami) meaning “mirror” 真 (ma) meaning “true, reality” 佐 (sa) meaning “aid, help” 保 (ho) meaning “guarantee; security

{Wu Ya is Chinese for owl. In China, they are viewed as bad luck and bring death omens, so instead of calling her Info-chan, she is WuYa. I imagine Info would be interested in Chinese culture, hence the alias}

Hanako Yamada | Yanagi, Shika 柳, 鹿 柳 (yanagi) means "willow” 鹿 (shika) meaning “deer”

{I imagine Shika would be very skittish, but a sweet girl nonetheless. And despite her frail frame, she’s determined, hardworking, and tries very hard to be brave and protect the ones she loves. Very family oriented}

Okay so on to “Hanako” being a rival:

Instead of Shika making Aren promise to never go away, Shika catches Tsubaki stalking her brother and talking to “Wu Ya” about getting rid of a rival. This worries her and she wants to protect him, but she thinks that Aren wouldn’t believe her if she simply tells him that there’s some crazy girl after him and plotting to get rid of someone. I think that Shika could be a “rival” who transfers to the school (because of bullying) during ANOTHER rival’s week. She does it randomly, so she will never be in the same rival week when the game is replayed. On the first play however, she should pop up in the same week as Eika, since that IS his childhood friend. Shika makes it her goal to get evidence that Tsubaki is a creepy girl who isn’t to be trusted. Tsubaki must stop her from getting evidence of her stalking Aren, hurting or plotting against her other rivals, and interacting with “Wu Ya” by the end of the week, while ALSO successfully getting rid of the main rival. Shika will follow Tsubaki around many times out of the school day. I think she should be able to steal Tsubaki’s phone.

While we’re on the subject of rivals, I found it odd that Osana was the first one even though she’s his best friend? It should be much harder to get rid of her because they’ve know each other for so long! So I kinda… Changed the rival order as well 😅

I think it should go like this: (Parenthesis are their new names, I could send you meanings, headcanons and changes about the rivals if you want)

Amai (Mochi, male) Asu (Kenko) Oka (Ikuyo) Muja AND Mida (Junmi and Ichika) Kizana (Tùzi [chinese]) Osana (Eika) Osoro (Otomi) Hanako (Shika) Megami (Yukihiko, male)

Sorry for this being so long but I had to add parts in so you could understand haha ________________________________________________________________
