Yeah, the only way you know it's Japanese is by the face and designs. Like the sweatdrops, spinning eyes, chibi animation, and over drawn explosives and punches, kicks, super power blasts, ect.

well if they drew it like how they relle look every grl would be flat with blak hair and a school grl uniform
and all the guys would be scrawny with blak hair and some boring tight outfit lol.....
everyone would look the same
maybe anime is sorta a way for them to escape their world of boring flat ppl that look alike and go into a world with hotter grls and multi colored crazy hair...where everyone looks different and has their own style

Haven't met many real japanese girls, have you? Believe me they aren't all cookie-cutter same.
But the reality is, is that your problably correct about the way Japanese animators, look at themselves.
You still see a lot of school girl uniforms (reference Kagome in Inuyasha), but one way that the Japanese kids seem to strike out from the hum-drum, of normal life is multi-colored hair and wild Bratz-type outfits (you only have to look at their pop stars to see what I mean). and where do they get those ideas. . .Japanime, of course!

Definitly true. I love the firey reds, and icy blue hairs, radical eyes and all of that. I've loved it ever since I was like 3. But I still think they could've done a much much MUCH better job with Soda. (back on topic, lol!)

You're right, Soda seems almost like an afterthought. . .(maybe no one will notice that he doesn't have much character)

I wonder why he's even in the game? Every character gives important information and he just gives obvious advice. He's kinda slow for me too in skating and tricks. He always messes me up!

yeah, Soda is kinda... non existant personality wise.... but in the comic, he'll have more importance. It'll make you like the character alot more... I promise.

To PK, that's great. It'll make everyone appriciate Soda more than they do now. Knowing the way you have your comics written, I'll probably have him on my favorites next to Yoyo ...maybe...

Yep! You can say that agian! ;D ;D At first I dont think he was gonna put him in the comic, there was a poll asking which one of the characters that nobody really liked deserved to be in the comic, and I voted for soda. I cant belive that he is putting combo in the comic. I [glow=red,2,300]HATE[/glow] him. I am happy that yoyo and corn are in there, they are my 2 favs!

i think soda is in there cuz well 1-hes obviously somebodies favorite character since he was almost the second main character in JGR in place of corn/Tab
2-wouldnt the game be dumb if they brought every character back but one
but my only complaint is its like they didnt even bother to change his outfit at all between the games
