I share your opinions. This isn't Sabrina at all. She doesn't even look like her true sprite of G/S/C - all other characters do. Why have the designers decide to ruin her? It's a mystery.
|
Seems as if I'm the only one who likes the new Sabrina...kinda at least. The hair hurts me the most, because I love Sabrina with long hair...but when you really think about it, it is still long, just that she decided to spread it into two ponytails...and that makes it so horrible? >> Not really.
(My first thought about the sprite was: That's Sabrina? OMG SEXY SHE WEARS SOMETHING THAT EXPOSES HER STOMACH SEXY SEXY SEXY.... *coughs*) And generally, the clothes...come on, we all don't wear the same boring old stuff every day. So does she, people. >> She does dress sexier now...these jeans...omg. 8D And her VS sprite has a clearer image of her arm thingies, though I still cannot decipher what exactly it is. Oo And, um, CPF? Care to share this fanart you spoke of? Seeing as I like this new outfit, I wanna see fanart, too. =3 You can link it if you don't want to torture the other members. XD! |
No fanart, I just dread whenever said fanart does come out in a year or so. Lorelei with red hair was bad enough, this is worse.
Now I predicted that you would like Sabrina's look, P*A... I bet if she dyed her hair blonde, got glasses and wore Flintstones-style clothing, you'd still love the way she looked. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who dislikes her look, though. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a Sabrina fan, though now she's fallen far, far behind Cynthia. |

Here's the main question: if that sprite was not labeled as "Sabrina," would you even know it was Sabrina? I would think it was some random "Channeler" or "Medium" or whatever they call them now. No way would I think that was Sabrina. So the only reason why you like that sprite is because you know she's Sabrina.
And showing more skin is only more attractive if said person is attractive in the first place. I can name many examples where that is the case, but this is not one. This is an unattractive girl who's taken the place of Sabrina, and showing off her stomach comes off as trashy. |
Well, I'm not sure about you, but I would be sceptical about calling the sprite a regular "psychic", as they're called (channelers and mediums mostly look a bit more mystical). They would wear different clothes imo too. I can't remember all of the psychic sprite up to now, but I think they wore some clothes similar to Liza&Tate. And somehow, her sprite just doesn't feel like the regular psychic sprite. It doesn't. o,o
...>> This *is* Sabrina, as much as you want to deny it. If you take her FR/LG sprite for comparison, you'll see that it *is* her, only that she changed her hair style (and her clothes, doh').The colour of the eyes, and the colour of her hair are, for example, exactly the same. It's just that she friggin wears some different clothes now. And trashy? Please, Saffron is, compared to our world, the New York, the Tokio, the Paris of the Pokemon world. A big city. And Sabrina is a woman of about 20-30 years. I've seen dozens of girls that age wearing similar clothes, and they're students. And they have the perfect body for it. Sabrina has, too. |
I decided to go back and look at the sprite long and hard, to see if I could get a second opinion. And the result is...
Still awful. Sorry, P*A. But I guess I don't like most designs of Sabrina; the one that I really like and consider to be "true" Sabrina is anime Sabrina. I'll make sure to keep her in my mind when battling her. |
*shrugs* Well, everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. I must admit I was a bit shocked first too, but by now I've started to really like it (sweet fanart helped, too).
And now, when I think about it, Anime Sabrina and Game Sabrina are very different. Character and design-wise. o,o So I doubt they should really be compared... |
But then in that case, I don't like game Sabrina, which would mean I'm not a total fan of hers. Of course the same could be said about Cynthia, that I'm not a fan of her anime personality, but instead of the alter ego I've given her. I think a better way of putting it is that I don't like the way Sabrina looks, but I still like her as a character.
|
I don't think anybody of us could be a total fan of hers, as no one can really claim to be a complete and total fan of anything. And Sabrina has so many incarnations that there's something for anyone XD and no one can be a fan of all of her incarnations.And maybe there is even an evil version of Cynthia besides your fanon one. I dunno how she's in the manga, but I I know she appeared there already. Sabrina, after all, was turned into a Rocket member...

*doesn't comment* Well, in a recent episode, the one where the HG/SS female protagonist appeared (Kotone or something), there was also a flashback to Clair, I think (at least I saw the picture on bulbapedia). And Clair appeared in her new HG/SS outfit. So, conclusion, IF Sabrina ever appears again, chances are high that she does in her new outfit. (Same for Will, too, if he ever appear.)
Ha, ha, ha! :P |
Someone likes Sabrina a lot: Sabrina Facts
The Haruhi Suzumiya-related ones are the best, although that's because I <3 Haruhi so much. |
Wow! That is very nice... :)

Quote:
(Apparently, *our* Itsuki aka Will is kinda named after the Itsuki from Haruhi...) |
Oh no, Itsuki/Will existed long, long before Itsuki Koizumi from Haruhi Suzumiya, which came out in 2006. And I'd prefer any Itsuki over Koizumi, but that's for another club and another message board...
I don't know if that author is a die-hard Sabrina fan or just picked Sabrina as a good choice for such a fic. Still, you don't see that many pro-Sabrina fics, if at all. |
O,O WTF, really? Okay, first proves that I know nothing about Haruhi (sorries >.<), secondly...I *know* from Will's bulbapedia page that the other Itsuki is kinda an esper, too. Now, if Haruhi's Itsuki came after Pokemon's Itsuki, who's an esper (=psychic) trainer, then...o,o Haruhi stole from Pokemon! O,O *faints*
*looks at her Sabrina fanfic list* Nope, Sabrina's not portayed too good on most fanfics, neither does she suffer a good fate. (Spoiler for everyone who wants to read said fics) - was kidnapped in "Ash to Ash, Dust to Dust" - more or less insane in "Cursed" - suicide in "Death" - also suicide in "Sabrina's Sorrow" - insane in "Farewell to Order" - alone in "Loss and Findings" - insane in "Paranoia" - killed in "Grasping the Moon" - also killed in "Rocket Province" - lost her memory (debatable if she's dead) in "PokeWars" - and has the most insane fans on the world, including one who's obsessed with finding fanfics. 0=) |
I don't know how much longer this club is going to last... no one else is posting, and there's nothing more for me to say about Sabrina...
|
>.< I won't let this club die so easily! It has become nearly half my life! >.< *pokes Zammy and Wyyrlokk* Everyone's busy, hmpf. >>
Well, for once, I put up a new chapter ages ago, which means it's already on the second page. XD And second, there's new *official* art of the new Sabrina. *sees how the masses run away, screaming* Come on, she's not *that* bad. http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c317/Mystic-Inazuma/1029092223.jpg Ignore weird looking Misty...Sabrina just looks as cool as before, if not cooler. ^^ |
Well, she doesn't look as bad as before, but I still don't approve of her new look. Misty... ugh.
Sorry, I haven't paid much attention here lately, I'll have to look at your story soon. |
Hm, it's funny, I think her small sprite is kinda better than the Sigumori picture, but I would never complain. XD She looks so...hm, dreamy? Melancholic? Don't know the exact word, but it sure fits her.
Though the best art of her is still the new fanart. <3 That's no problem. A lot of people have been inactive recently. Including me. |
I'm still dislike it, sorry. But she looks a bit - only a bit- better now.
These handcuffs are still horrible, anyway. I would like her new outfit more without them, really... And yes, inactivity isn't an unknown word for me, too... |
I *am* getting crazy. o,o People who don't like the new outfit semi-like the official picture, while for me, it's the opposite...oh well. XD
They aren't handcuffs!! >> She's not going to jail! They're wristbands. And I thought you, Wyrrlokk, as the manga Sabrina lover here would recognize that there could be some development done with them. ^.~ I'll let you guess it for yourself for the moment. *coughs* We both have an excuse, though...0=) |
I guess we're just going to have to get used to this new (ugly) look of Sabrina... which comes right at the time where my "love" for Sabrina has faded to only a "like" and maybe less than that. It's Cynthia's fault.
Next chapter: the most brutal, violent chapter I've ever written and probably will ever write. Sabrina has her life changed forever. I'm not joking, this is not one of those "Sabrina almost dies but survives and then goes back to her old life" things. Her life will never be the same after this chapter. She will survive, I'll tell you that much. But at what a cost. |
Friends, as you may thought by yourself, I don't have a working internet connection at home at the moment... so don't think I forgot about you! I will be back soon, after I get my DSL.
@CPF: That sounds more than interesting. Although I really couldn't stand it if Sabrina has to suffer, of course... x_x |
