Not sure if I like Batou more than Motoko from Ghost in the Shell. I guess I just can relate to him a little more? You know, with me being a big badass and all.
I know what you mean! and not just that badass thing, hrhr In the first anime he shows more "humanity" than her... Around the second Anime he is as detached as motoko was in the first; even ol ape-face mentions it!
nope not just you! It took me really long time to get attached to Motoko (as in both movies, the entire first season of SAC and most of Second Gig) while I just instantaneously connected with Batou. Even now, much as I love Motoko, Togusa takes the cake for my second favorite character.
Anyway, I think it's because Batou's a deliberate foil character to her-- despite being just as intelligent he tends to be a lot more grounded. And he likes blowing things up, which is always a plus.
Holy Awesomeness, Batman! I like your take on Batou! One tiny thing about this picture that sorta bugs me: He's much smaller than he is in the show. You could level him up a bit by widening his shoulders. Yes, I believe that would do him the exact sort of justice he deserves: BADASS JUSTICE!
