I like that Ego and Noa's designs contrast yet parallel each other somewhat
#dark hair&eyes/light hair&eyes#actually ego always has dark eyes except for his cover#where they're light gray/white#ego's always wearing black with minor white details (his belt and his football tie)#while noa wears more colorful clothes. usually#it's either a team's uniform or baggy clothes (bllk tracksuit and his outfit in the brief flashback when ego mentioned he grew up poor)#in general#characters whose faces are obscured tend to be slightly mysterious/less open#it's a visual shorthand right?#at least before you know what they're about it works#like with nagi who has his eyebrows obscured which makes his#expressions less readable which combined with his disheveled hair should give the viewer the impression that he's lazy+monotone#same with niko the first time we meet him#and i can name many other examples like theres a lot of characters in which the opposite is true#like reo shidou barou and sendou (lots of ous) all have hair that frames their face and they're all pretty expressive#despite all that#noa and ego go against this a bit#noa's face is completely unobscured#and he has like. 4 expressions at most.#(sae is a bit like this too where he goes from bangs to no bangs but his expressions become a lot more monotone)#meanwhile ego has the bangs (eyebrows nowhere to be seen) and glasses combo#and he's deranged we know this#something somehing his mouth being the most visible part of his face something something the things he says to bluelockers affects them and#the story#wait i just saw a pic of that moment where he bends himself back during his speech my god he doesn't have eyebrows...#not having eyebrows adds Something when ur making deranged expressions#like mia goth as pearl. gaara. ego & of course snuffy#look at him smiling during the star exchange bit he looks insane (affectionate)#i ran out of tag space. i should've written all this in the post ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ#txt
