Call me a lech if you will, but after watching the first few episodes of 'The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya', I couldn't help but notice Mikuru Asahina's cute little mole on her left breast every time the poor girl was forced to bear her cleavage. :D

Can anyone else think of any interesting attributes that they can't help but notice every time they show up on a character? I know there are others, but that mole is currently burned into my brain and I can't think of any at the moment... :virgin:

The fact that I noticed is really quite odd, as I usually don't notice details like that. Anyway, physical attributes can be anything like scars and moles in places other that the face, birthmarks, etc. They can also be cute things that real people wouldn't have like eternal blushes and fangs/overly-pronounced canines. No animal ears or tails, though. You see those everywhere. :P

Basically, what have you noticed about certain characters, other than their hair and clothes, that stood out in your mind? While we're at it, how about we include habits that involve just the body like FMP's Tessa and her little hair twirl? Just go crazy and have fun with it!

Would you believe that that mole is a plot point?

Oh, really? Wow, I was just marveling over how cute and endearing it was. Damn things a plot point, huh?

In Haruhi, EVERYTHING is a plot point.

And that's one of the things I like about it. The spontaneity and randomness in the Haruhi novels is just awesome, and the author manages to tie things together and make things deep in later novels. I personally thought the fourth novel, even with a crappy fan translation, was just great.

Except the machine gun.

Or was it…?

Bala from Black Lagoon comes to mind as shes scared all over from her time in the Russian army. As for something a little more down to earth I'd have to go with Haruka's eye shadow from Hime.

Iria's (zeriam the animation) mole under her left eye.

I also like the android/robot characters who squeak when they walk, the marionettes from Sabre Marinoette spring to mind for this.

Cyber Doll May of Hand Maid May also does this (at least in her original form).
