I don't know, honestly.
Maybe it's something to do with, I don't know... the fact that there's a lot of overlapping between the gaming and anime communities?
I kind of chose this avatar because I like it...? Maybe?
There really isn't much issue with anime avatars; back when I was 18 or 22, don't remember which, I remember I made a big issue about one of my avatars being removed because ashen colored leotard where the chest happened to be; it's actually the entire reason why I moved away from anime-based layouts and went with something I'm passionate about: guns. But yet here I am with a manga-based avatar. I feel like people go with what's most expressive to their personality. A lot of times people will switch their avatar to either their current waifu or whatever is hot to them at the time, avatar choice can be driven from interests and likes all the way down to whatever gets the user's heart beating the fastest. (Lookin at you, Ultima, I saw that one avatar, you can't hide from me. : P )
Nowadays, I could care less about what avatar a person has, anime or whatever; being close to 30 you just stop caring about stuff like that.

Anime/manga medium profile pictures/avatars are not my thing, but I won't deny tho that the artists who make em generally are talented people.
I'd also prefer to see people actually learn to draw their own PFPs.On Pixel Art Requests: I generally do not accept work unless I either have the time, if I see your project worth my time to contribute towards, and that is usually me doing the approaching to you on that.
-I also do not accept speculative work as I do have various art I made on-hand with me.
-I am more receptive to equivalent exchange of resources in which case, you can DM me wherever I have an active presence on for the details.
-Other times I'm availible for your project is C3 request threads I may run.

Sums me up in a heartbeat
Makes my kokoro go Doki Doki Majo Shinpan!
Beats me. Haven't seen any Cory pfps though, and that's kinda depressing...
That's odd. But hey, nice layout! Touhou is one of the best cute-'em-ups!
i just like genshin impact, which for some reason, people group with anime. i think though, that anime pfps are cool and i wish people didnt make fun of them as much.Want to support me? Check out my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1M9XCgOtc-J_-hnMPH8M7g
