I can agree to that! Elecman's always been my favorite, but I've grown partial towards his EXE variant in recent years.

I like bats and the idea of exploring space sounds awesome. So I remembered there was a meme called "Space Bat". Space Bat is based on a real life bat who held onto a space shuttle as it rocketed into space. Unfortunately the bat perished but a new meme was born after its death.

Well since I've been on Kanzenshuu for a year now, I thought I'd rock my first (and very shitty) avatar.

Well now that the Mega Wars are over, I shall return to an oldie but a goodie. Cure Honey returns with her soothing song once more!

Really wanted an old school Dragon Ball art avatar, so I used this piece that I got from Kunzait_83's Tumblr:

My avatar is a Toriyama drawing from 2009 that was scanned and uploaded to Flickr by the awesome TanookiKuribo. If you haven't checked out his Flickr yet, you should.

Been playing lots of the original Star Fox (and the canceled Star Fox 2), and I got the idea to make a GIF of the launch sequence of the original game, and wanted to try it as an avatar.

Oh man, that Star Fox gif is giving me all sorts of nostalgia...I can hear all the accompanying sounds in my head each time I watch it :D

As for me, I'm trying something I've done very rarely up to this point: a non-Vegeta avatar! Shocking, I know. He's my favorite character, and I love him and Bulma together, so I typically have something with the two of them, but...well, these past few weeks I've been fangirling hard over Zamasu, so I decided to make him my avatar, at least for a while. I mean, he's only been in a few episodes, so maybe the infatuation will fade at some point. But right now, I'm totally digging him ♥

I had a hard time choosing, so I made a couple different options

Currently using the second one, since even though I love the stunned look on his face in the first one, the evil smile and blood-red petals are speaking to me more right now.

I did that earlier, albeit minus the transformation itself. And the post you quoted was from the #55 NEP. :D

I try to only have my avatars be things I've drawn (or in certain cases just redrawn) myself. That leads to a lot of Bulla, but that's kinda my thing anyway, so no big deal there. Usually the avatars are designs from my fanfic, so other, possibly original, characters will probably show up from time to time (example: Bran). I also try to change my avatar once I reach a certain number of posts. For example, I changed it to the current one at 320 posts and I'll most likely change again at 420 posts.
At least that's the plan. If something shows up that I really like the look/idea of, I might change my avatar for a while to reflect that. For example, I had my avatar set as GT Bulla from Fusions for a while because she was confirmed as a playable character in a game for the first time.
Probably Kanzenshuu's biggest Bulla fangirl. Current avatar: DBU Bulla as Sailor Princess Sadala, based on Sailor Moon: Cosmic Dance

That Pre-Teen Bran avatar really grew on me. You should go back to it sometime. :P
