Been using Len as my avatar for nearly a decade (fuck has it really been that long?) and Punkish Len is probably my fave Project Diva module, so...

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
My avatar was this shot of Majin Vegeta for a while:

However, I felt like challenging myself and doing some art stuff, so I traced and corrected it (with my mouse, since I have no tablet at the moment) into Yamamuro's Buu arc art style:

Colors are the Dragon Box, but with a bit of extra contrast, and the outlines are thick so that they will stand out at 100x100 pixels. I'd like to think I did a good job of capturing Yamamuro's likeness, as I used several screenshots for reference.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
Decided to go back to an old classic. Didn't feel right without it.

Always thought Freeza was a cool villain since I was a kid, so an avatar of him was a no-brainer.

Decided to look up Midorima and Takao yaoi since the vibes in the TV series are so strong.

I drew mine lol. It looks like Goku but it's actually not, it's based on a fan character I made.

I think Touhou is neat. I choose my pfp depending on my mood tbh. But it's mostly going to be vibeo games.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
The name, the avatar, and the dumb tumblr joke kinda came to me as a set. I ran with it, and shall now change nothing (unless it's a different image of Monaka's nipple, I guess).

Well, my username is meant to represent Ma Jr. in all of his evil glory from the 23rd Tenakaichi Budokai. And to me, the full body shot of the moment he first locks eyes with adult Goku is a striking image. Piccolo really was scary back then, and (other than Frieza) is probably my favorite villain from all of Dragon Ball.
The story of DRAGON BALL starts from the moment Goku met Bulma. I don't really mind the Z, so long as it's understood that it's not the true beginning of the story.
I actually prefer the Goku vs Tenshinhan and Goku vs Piccolo Jr. rivalries to the Goku vs Vegeta rivalry.

I've chosen my new (temporary) avatar to pay my dues to the late Chadwick Boseman. Wakanda Forever!

Genderbend Sengoku warlords are hot and sexy, easy to pick.


Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
The current Piccolo Jr. avatar I have is from my favorite artist in Dragon Ball, Minoru Maeda. And it is such a piercing stare, full of hate and malice. In particular, I love how tiny Piccolo's pupils are; that adds a ton to his demonic, evil look, whereas when he becomes a hero, he tends to have larger pupils. I love hero Piccolo, but I'm nostalgic for his villanous days also, hence my avatar.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
i just finished up the first season of chihayafuru, really amazing show, didn't like the anime art style as much as the mangas, so i just looked up some of the art work lol. plus shinobu just has a super awesome design, very classic anime villain esque.
I have borderline personality disorder, if my posts ever come off as aggressive or word vomit-y to you, please let me know.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
Since I discovered Proect Diva X on PS4 a few years ago.
I did put her as my avatar in most websites for a loooong time, because I also played Project Diva Future Tone at launch, and made like 200-ish hours of gameplay on it.
Since then, Miku has been a staple, even when my interest shifted towards other things. People just associate me with her, and I embraced this.

One of my three avatars is Super Shenlong. It's the very first avatar I used when I joined the forum... five years ago! Somehow I'm feeling a bit nostalgic.

Well, I took a selfie and then cropped it.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
Been really MIA around here for a while (I still pop in to see if there's anything new or interesting going on, just haven't had as much to post about for a while), but felt like it was time to change my avatar here at long last too. I'm breaking the coda of Kuririn avatars (GASP!) and going to the avatar I've been sporting across the web for a little while now, a picture of me (more or less) made using a Whisper of the Heart based Pixiv someone showed me a while ago.
