Why do most anime characters not have any lips ? Does anyone else think it makes them look weird ?
It usually looks weird when they do have lips.

Lips are hard to animate properly.

This. And most believe that thin lips help in making a good character look more innocent
>>149711520
Yeah. The character I posted was the main villain and supposed to be the hottest girl, and no surprise, she's the only female with lips. She looks like crap 80% of the time in the anime though.

Easier to draw
but also because the way cartoons work is by simplying reality, this is also why their skin is so smooth unlike real skin that has all kind of pigment disorder in it, hair, wringles, weird skin texture on close up, veins under the skin etc.
Animator already bitching when they draw modern anime eye that have too many details.

If it wasn't about that they would always find something to bitch about.

Jojo characters have the best lips
>>149710392
Do you like big lips?
>those artists who don't fully draw mouths
Is it hard drawing a line?

I would not think it would be.
Lips are disgusting enough in real life.

But that pic has lips, you can see the shadow under her lip.

>You will never kiss her
Purely in the interest of science, I tried removing the lips from a 3DPD to see what it would look like
>>149713572
It's an intentional choice that has nothing to do with difficulty.
>>149715062
I'm sorry I don't see that.
>>149710392
In animation, you're always on the line between too much detail and not enough. It's easy to put too much detail in the lips, and then it all falls to shit.

If you think that you've been looking at too many bishounen
>>149717220
I'm not sure i'm looking at the same picture as you because I don't see a dude.

>not knowing the joys of a fine 2D mouthpussy
>>149714705
say what ?
Red lips are basically imitation of a vagina.
You'd think its the fanserviest bodypart of them all.

Start watching Shaft shows if you want lips
Same reason no one has fingernails. They're ugly.
Most cartoon characters don't have lips. People always have these special expectations for Japanese animation because they think it's special or something. They're cartoons, they don't need to anything.
>>149713424
Yuuuuck
Srs most of the time lips are drawn to meant uglyness.
Dick sucking lips are the best.
>not liking lips
Didn't know this was the gay district.
>>149722769
fingernails are just a little bit different than lips.
>why doesn't anime have _____/why does this [animation] have _____?
The answer is that there's literally thousands of drawings in every episode, so corners absolutely must be cut. Read manga if it really bothers you.
>>149710392
always looks like they're wearing heavy makeup when they do.
>>149722615
I don't like thin lips, it ruins my fantasy
The best one do.
>>149728496
That is true
The lips don't really bother me, I don't spend much time looking at lips.
What's truly killer is whenjaws don't move.Even more so when some do and some don't.
