| Hmm, not really. It doesn't make them less guilty or something like that. |
 |
| How about if you actually like the character themselves @deg even if theyre not hot??? |

| Nope. They aren't forgivable if they have pretty privilege. Especially not this fella from Berserk. |
| Character design is storytelling whether it is designed to do in universe, or pander to the audience in the real world, the way a character is designed, tells the story of how the audience is supposed to engage with them. It reveals the assumptions that the creators have about who is going to consume the media that they make and how. In visual language framing and aesthetics supersede the rest of the text—always, always, always.” It is common knowledge, that pretty = good and ugly = bad. Audience will naturally feel more sympathetic to pretty character rather than ugly and authors know it. If a villain is pretty and a woman on top of that, them receiving clemency greatly increases. Junko Enoshima is a perfect example. That bitch is pure evil with not a single redeeming quality and does evil for no other reason that she just likes it. She doesn't have any sappy backstory nor tragic past, that would at least slightly diminish her evil. Yet other characters tried to reason with her and even offered her a chance at redemption. She even has quite a lot of fans. All this because she looks pretty. |

I don't see curls like this or the drill hair style as often anymore, and especially not with green hair either. It makes her look like she has little bamboo sticks in her hair. I'll add it to the list. |
| you remember how much bitch from tate no yuusha is hated? she's a hot piece of ass but everyone hates her like anything. same goes for me. i mean do i hate her? yes. but would i watch her getting railed? also yes. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Immoral evil characters can be ugly or average in looks, but I'll still like them if they are not annoying, they are significantly better than the rest of the cast, and/or they do things that I enjoy seeing |

Rather im asking, Would you still forgive them if you liked their personality??? I cant help but think about this question because of my profile pic!!! |
" Kindness can sometimes lead you to trouble. " |
| No, I do not, I can't like or forgive a character based on looks alone otherwise I would have liked Wolfram |

| immoral or evil male characters are absolutely unforgivable if they are beautiful.. |
 |
| I concur, and conversely being ugly means being guilty by default. It's like being a linux user. No linux users allowed. |
| In real life, not at all. In anime… absolutely. |
 |
| Absolutely. As long as they are not annoying, beautiful characters can do whatever they want. |
| Of course not lol. Tell that to our friend Keyaru...  |
 |
| No. They should be judged for their actions. Unless... |
 |
| No absolutely not, a heinous act is never forgivable regardless of physical beauty. |
Risa92 said: CulturedNexus said: Yes and it's true for characters that are not meant to be particularly evil either. The biggest example for me is Nami from One Piece. She has an absolutely shitty personality and is overall annoying, but she indeed is hot and looks beautiful. Even if most people don't admit or consciously understand it, that's why most fans tolerate her as much as they do. I bet she would not even be Usopp level of popularity if it weren't for the fanservice privilege. Boa is actually even worse than her, has no redeeming traits whatsoever and is in the top 10 in popularity polls just because of her looks. Just emphasized on Nami more because I think Boa is obvious, her fans often realize that she is a bad person and just like her because she's sexy or "hilarious", while the former often gets a pass for her antics supposedly because of her characterization when in reality it's all about her design as well, which is okay since it's fiction but doesn't come off as very honest to me either. Long story stort, yeah, people can like immoral characters because they are beautiful and do so all the time, happens irl too. There is a huge difference tho between people, who are doing atrocious things, or people who just don't float your boat personality-wise. You are correct, the latter is clearly worse of a crime. |
Don't worry, I'll forgive her for you *wink* |
| Its not about forgiving them but more so about enjoying them, if you ask me. :) |
| Of course not... They shouldn't forgiven... Never >:( |
 |
| 100% and always, they're charismatic. like rising of incel hero's malty, should've been reformed or sedated in some way and waifu'd pero~ |
 |
| "are immoral or evil characters forgivable if they are beautiful?" Duuuh...not to mention inevitably those get some sorts of redemption arc. |
