A friend of mine once said he doesn't like it when characters blush because it makes him feel embarrassed for them ---kind of like a weird pitying. And it's a pretty big turn off.

But I don't know what the hell he was smoking. Blushing in my book adds significantly to the characters moe or cuteness level, regardless of the cause of blushing. I even went to the trouble of Gimping' an image of one of my waifus to make her blush. The results are as follows:

Ritsuko from Shiki not blushing (original):


Ritsuko from Shiki blushing with Gimp:


I don't know about you guys, but that last pic is just 10x better for some reason.
Either way, what is your stance on blushing? Does it maximize a character's cuteness/moeness, or are you turned off by it? Or maybe it depends on who's blushing and to what? What about real life blushing?

Tell the Protaku all.

Ok I've been thinking way too hard about this so I'm gonna ask. Do you mean "hot ass" sauce? Or hot "ass sauce." This is a serious question I've been thinking about.

I would say that blushing makes a girl look more pretty, and feminine. "Cute" is not the word I would use to describe it.

HOW TO SAVE ANIME IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

  1. To have Mars of Destruction, Skelter Heaven, and Pupa properly adapted in TV series form by Madhouse
  2. To have Inferno Cop properly adapted in TV series form by Bones, director: Urobuchi Gen
  3. An anime crossover of Mushishi x ARIA x Haibane Renmei.

I wasn't blushing when I voted or anything...

Yes, light blushing is just flat out adorable. It is the ultimate embodiment of innocent embarrassment and excitement. It is the holy grail of moe pushing the limits of my heartstrings.

But it can also make them creepier depending.

Generally blushing doesn't add anything since the majority of moe characters are horny sluts and blush even when there's no reason to.

Reinhard looked very cute when he blushed though, it was unexpected.
