All this was supposed to be was "experimenting beefier-than-Elliot Tedd who's not any taller than normal".
In fact, I chose it because I figured "one person? Easy!"
But then I thought about it, and realized Tedd's height, which was specified as part of a poll, wouldn't be clear without someone to compare it ...

You know, I'm not actually sure what anime I'd use as an example. I was GOING to say Fairy Tail, but then I started listing the things I liked about it, and the list was FAR too long to credibly say "I just like how some of the characters look".
