#Leo's is orange-red. Euden's is pink and red. Emile's was...teal?

Dragalia's comics had a few running jokes.
One of them, however, went very unnoticed: Comic!Euden's intense yearning to break free of the chibi style and become more sharply angled/'cool-looking' like the most of his siblings are drawn in-game.
Don't believe me?
Well, it starts in the adventurer's guide they released at the start of the game, with this frame:

He Yearns(tm) for the pointy chin and nose as seen on his siblings!
It also later pops up in this, in which Comic!Euden contemplates growing a mustache or beard since he thinks they look 'dignified' (even if his imagining of a mustache is anything but!)
Tumblr media
But that's not all!
He later tries on Victor's joke glasses, to this effect:
Tumblr media
Euden's just so happy there he looks 'cool' now, like a gentleman, that Victor can't break it to him that no, no he does not look any more dignified than his normal chibi-styled self.
He also immediately starts dreaming of a 'cool new look' and immediately dozes off to it, again to a more sharply-angled imagining of himself and his friends.
Tumblr media
...No wonder he's so shocked, almost horrified, upon seeing Chitose turn most the group 'cute', because that's the aesthetic he's been desperately trying to escape since day 1!
Tumblr media
Then again, comic Euden also would apparently turn catatonic for the rest of the day upon seeing anything too cute (typically the baby dragons), so maybe this is just him expressing some self-preservation for once in his life and trying to keep himself safe with his battle-buddies?
That's all the instances I can recall casually, but maybe there might be one or two more...
Long story short, comic!Euden seemed to deeply wish to be drawn more like this:

...While instead, he's stuck being drawn like this:
Tumblr media
Someone needs to tell him that although the siblings are a bit more pointy in the comics...
...they weren't exactly fully espousing a 'cool aesthetic' replete with pointy noses and chins either!

As a last little joke, while unrelated to the actual post, the 'cool' Euden tends to self-envision actually pops up in this comic too!
