As we’ve seen before on numerous occasions, the transposition of 2D to 3D and vice versa can have untoward consequences; as illustrated above in dread fashion.
Far be it from to brutally shatter anyone’s dreams of betrothal to the character, but doesn’t the lady on the right bear a striking resemblance to a certain fanged moe icon in her moe form?

reality hurts!!
Hilarious as it may be (you guys aren't getting any girls), it's quite unfair to compare this two images, since the anime girls are thinner, have bigger eyes and small noses, not to mention they look half the age of the ladies on top (plus to girl on the right is fatter and scrunches her face, the anime one doesn't have the balls to do so).
ANYTHING will look cute anime-wise, that's the whole point of the style.
3D IS pig-disgusting!
This is why we need to invent a device that turns the real world into 2D...but where all to *insert generic problem here* to do that >__>|
This was a joke and you're not genuinely that ignorant, right? Please? The artist didn't turn the 3D image into a 2D equivalent, even if we'd stick to a generic cutesy anime style. The 2D is just vaguely similarly posed, nothing more.
Well...I'll choose 2D over that kind of reality any day. You could at least chose to cute girls to make my decision harder lol
You guys have no taste in women, they're both pretty cute. Tho the 2D moe girls aren't bad either. Tough choice here... argh.
>they’re both pretty cute.
I'm sorry, are we looking at the same image?
He has to be. The more I look at the top image, the more my eyes burn.
she looks like the bat from Rosario+Vampire
Ughh. Next time try to make my choice harder to choose from.
In this case I will select 2D character better.
Well that's not much of a choice. 2D, it's possible to make them NOT so... ugly. Of course you pick the 2-D-ified version. The 3D didn't look good to begin with.
Gotta hand it to 'em. At least they don't care and embrace their unattractiveness.
But really guys it's not what's on the outside that's important, it's what's on the inside. (end sarcasm)
Win post is win!
Why is there still debate on which "D" is superior is still beyond me....-_-
This should have rest the case once and for all.
ಠ_ಠ
I honestly never get these kinds of 2D vs 3D posts... Cosplayers vs what they imitate, or 2D game art vs the same chars in 3D art, now those make sense.
But some artists using random images as inspiration for images so significantly different that they might as well have made them without the inspiration images?
Please tell me people are not so horribly ignorant that this comes across as anything special, especially since artists are capable of even drawing things without basing it on any images, relying only on their minds.
Bah humbug, get off my lawn you goddamn kids.
Damn it!
I've lost my visual virginity... or something.
Then again, the 3D counterpart isn't even pretty. Nope, nowhere close to being considered 'pretty', 'cute' or 'beautiful'.
wow so ugly
They both look rather man-ish to me~>,<
The one on the right looks as though her face is melting, while the left is making fun while imitating =D Tanoshii~ ne
Old picture but I have always liked it :) Makes me somewhat happy about my anime obsession. I must say, however, that that moefication is a little unfair towards the real girls.
So what do you think guys, 2D or 3D this time?
Lol was there a need to even ask..
uoogghhh... CAN NOT UNSEE >_<
Heh heh...
Nothing a few dozen hits upside the face with a shovel won't cure. That, or doggystyle forever after.

The first thing I said when I loaded up the site was OH SHIT
1st pic :MY EYEEEEEES~~~~ IT BURNS!!!!!
2nd pic: my eyeeees~~~~ hehehehe~~~~~
Thank god that I'm nijicon.....
Ouch!
You mean lady on the RIGHT
yeah it has to be the right. look at them fangs!! on both pics!!
Fixed that, thanks.
2D is indeed moe.
Random choices of what to blog sometimes, Artefact dear...
But christ, her face isn't half retarded. It's almost as if she has sunken eyes!
You would be new then...
they're not japanese.
wrong comparison
Yep, pretty sure (=99%) they're Koreans.
Thats why I would rather have my self drawn into the 2d world than have it come to life.
2D over 3D: The reason.
I've seen much worse and it made my eyes bleed in blood ><
To be fair, anime girls only come in two styles - cute or sexy. Rarely will an artist go through the extra effort of adding imperfections just to make a character stand out or make another character seem better looking by contrast.
Sorry small correction:
"...rarely will an artist go through the extra effort of adding imperfections *unless it is to* make a character stand out or make another character seem better looking by contrast."
O_O;;; Shocked.
WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?
Currently getting me a diet coke
