              How about…

              Brutus from Popeye.

              Always found them to be alike. Don't know why.

                  IMO, Franky's more inspired by Frank from Earthbound…

                  Same hairstyle, sunglasses, and habit of building machines named after themselves.

                    It just occured to me that Europe doesn't get Tripod. You're not missing anything. It's just a picture of Kirby I found off Google. 😉

                            YGO wishes it was JoJo. But falls pretty short.

                                              I know that in an interview Araki of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure fame was inspired to make that because of Metallica

                                              Yeah, I read about that somewhere… Isn't one of the characters named after Metallica? I know there's some other rock music-inspired things in that series, I'm not sure since I've never seen/read it ^^

                                                  its a bit more than alot

                                                  a few in Part 3 are along with the characters, but EVERY stand in parts 4,5,6 are from bands, albums or songs and even some of the attacks

                                                      Well, I don't watch the show, but I was reading the Heroes topic awhile back.

                                                      Supposedely, the character from the show Heroes likes DBZ. There's even an official "web log" for the character which mentions Future Trunks. And he's a time traveller. And the future version has a sword. So it makes sense to me.

                                                      So, again, I don't watch the show. But it seems like a fairly obvious inspiration.

                                                        I'm on a Kinnikuman high lately.

                                                        OK, I don't have a picture to compare it to, but Bo-bobo has an attack called "Jelly Magnum" where he punches Tennosuke's head and causes his face to shoot out.

                                                        Anyway…

                                                        the bigot who thinks being an asshole is actually worth shit

                                                                    It's like saying Denbo Chan looks like Sailor Moon(which is true) but bobobo makes jokes oput of everything, including other Anime, so of course they'll look the same, they are a direct inspiration.

                                                                    But other series copying bobobo is fine.

                                                                    Same with students, it's like cpmaring Midori no Hibi to Yu Yu Hakusho, just because the main characters are both fighters and wear japanese school uniforms. Hey actually I drew a nice comparison there.

                                                                        It's obvious that Rock Lee is definitely inspired by Bruce Lee.

                                                                        But as for Hitmonlee, it probably only applies to his English name. His Japanese name was Sawamura. According to Wikipedia it is probably a reference to this Japanese kickboxer guy with the same name.

                                                                        I have some interesting video game character inspiration stuff, but not any direct anime/manga ones. But I'll post them anyway if it's nobody cares.

                                                                          And Denbo-chan is a spoof of the "magical girl" genre, which isn't limited to Sailor Moon. That, and she doesn't really have any resemblance to Sailor Moon..

There were some series just parodied if they had something interesting happening in one scene, like how in FLCL the characters’ used manga style artwork to have fun.

                                                                            [EDIT: I forgot to add in this, I wish that Opera had a built in spell checker, but again, I have to be a perfectionist on spelling.]

                                                                            Which if something that odd would happen in a series once, Bo Bo Bo would make a parody of it later.

                                                                              Still I thought that everyone knew that those two pokemon were based on Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. Their bloody names had the words Chan and Lee at the end.

                                                                              Hahah, whoops, I couldn't remember their names.

                                                                                    @Captain:

                                                                                    It's obvious that Rock Lee is definitely inspired by Bruce Lee.

                                                                                    But as for Hitmonlee, it probably only applies to his English name. His Japanese name was Sawamura. According to Wikipedia it is probably a reference to this Japanese kickboxer guy with the same name.

                                                                                    I have some interesting video game character inspiration stuff, but not any direct anime/manga ones. But I'll post them anyway if it's nobody cares.

                                                                                    Huh, so it was a reference to Sawamura. Pretty interesting. What about the Chan one?

                                                                                    We might as well post the videogame ones. Well, really, I'm just interested.

                                                                                      Well, I looked it up on google and found:

                                                                                      Ebiwalar (Hitmonchan) is probably based on "Hiroyuki Ebihara", a Japanese boxer.

                                                                                      Okay, to get started with video games…I have been wondering about this one for a long time, so I am going to try a comparison:

                                                                                      Zues (ADK/SNK's World Heroes series of games) and Falco (Hokuto no Ken/Fist of the North Star):


                                                                                      (Sorry about the quality, I put it together with Paint and don't have time to use another program to make it a higher quality gif)

                                                                                      I don't know anything about Falco, because I've only seen images, but I always saw him in the SNES Hokuto no Ken fighting games.

                                                                                      And I could never find out who Zeus was supposed to be a reference to (except for the name Zues, but other than that he didn't seem to have anything to do with the Greek god). I always thought he was a Hokuto no Ken reference because of his design, but I could never quite place him.

                                                                                      Not sure if they have similar fighting styles though. They probably have different personalities too (because I've read that Falco is honorable, and I can't tell about Zeus - I do know that Zues likes to fight strong opponents though, and dislikes weak people).

                                                                                      1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0

                                                                                          I don't know where to find any other pictures though. I was really wanting to see the DVD releases of the Riki-Oh anime, but the company that had them decided not to bring them out after all.

                                                                                          I just noticed I wrote Zeus as "Zues" about half the time in my last post.

                                                                                                I don't have any pics right now, but Stroheim from Jojo part 2, and Guile from Street Fighter.

                                                                                                Speaking of Stroheim, I also think he might have inspired Brocken from World Heroes. But I'm not too sure about it, just a guess. I do know that Neo-Dio is definitely based on Baoh (another Araki manga) and the JoJo 2 lifeforms. So it isn't too much of a stretch I guess. I'll get some pics up of both later.

                                                                                                Oh, and lot's of people say Rolento (Final Fight/SFA) was inspired by the Colonel (from Hokuto no Ken).

                                                                                                    Okay, here's some more (tell me, is it okay for me to be posting such large pictures, or should I post them as links instead?):


                                                                                                    Brocken (World Heroes) - I believe he is inspired by Brocken Jr. from Kinnikuman. Not only his name and outfit, but also his obscured eyes (since he often wears shades). Also, he's a robotic German super soldier, which reminds me of Stroheim from JJBA. This also reminds me of Cyborg 004 from Cyborg 009, who was a German cyborg with lots of hidden weapons in his body. I think he even has a move where he shoots a missile out of his leg like Brocken.

                                                                                                    Oh, and there's also the Terminator:

                                                                                                    I need to find good pics before I can make a Neo-Dio comparison. But I'll do that next.

                                                                                                    I've posted this before, but I'll post it again:

                                                                                                    This was from an advertisment I scanned from an old Gamefan magazine. It was like 1996 or 1997, I dunno. But whatever the case, it came out before Guilty Gear for PS1.

                                                                                                    I'm guessing it's probably the same artist, and he re-used some of his old character designs for GG.

                                                                                                        Here
                                                                                                        -Baoh = looks the same, arm blades

                                                                                                        -Cars = (blades, Neo-Dio is listed in his WHP profile as "Ultimate Thing" like the villains of JJBA Part 2)

                                                                                                        -Guyver = arm blades, chest blast

                                                                                                        And
                                                                                                        Here

                                                                                                        Oh, and those sprites in the second image are from NGBC, not WH. I messed up but don't feel like fixing it.

                                                                                                        Neo-Dio is listed as a vampire in one of the profiles I think. And his name is Dio, so he could have been named from JJBA's Dio.
