We haven't seen the chibis in a while. In fact, after some negative feedback I had gotten on their use, I hadn't planned on using them again. Then this chance for a neat little joke came up... something that wouldn't be in character for Chrys to say. That's what the chibis were made for. So, I brought them back to life.

What do you think? Are chibis a fun little aside? Or an annoying distraction from the storyline?

Fun little aside when used right

I agree with "guest J" - they bring a bit of comedy relief to an otherwise serious situation.  And in this case, it fits right into the storyline!  Smile

When used sparingly, I'm ok with chibis. And in a situation like this, they make sense. Smile

Is Mandrake shrinking, or her dress is growing? On the station it was a mini dress, coming to the top of her thigh. In Morks it was halfway down her thigh. And now it goes down past her knees?

A fun aside. They get to say and do things the real character never would.

+1 for chibis, when appropriate. And here it's very appropriate!

Uatchi, her dress is getting longer. That's a feature. It turns from a mini-dress into an evening dress, then shrinks back again.

Yep. That's my explanation and I'm sticking to it.

I must say, a well placed Tentacles joke LOL

altrough i'm getting a little sick of ppl thinking manga and anime is all about tentacles jokes... makes for bad inpressions..

JGray
 

Not all about tentacle jokes, of course. There are plenty of anime/manga influences in Mysteries of the Arcana. I think its pretty clear.

As for Mandrake's hair? I plead artistic style.

a clever explanation it is indeed. magic clothing might be a normal thing from her arcana.
