Aaron and Riley
That's such a big resemblance, Riley doesn't seem to be based on Aaron. He just is based on him! The pose, the hair... everything. --Kyoufu Kawa 17:30, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- That's pretty possible, Kyoufu-sensei but we aren't sure who was designed first. D/P was already in project when Movie 8 first saw the day light. It's still possible that they used Riley's design to make Aaron. Yeah, that's unlikely but we never know... Anyways, you're still my master. --Maxim 17:59, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- Considering that Sugimori made Aaron's character design as well as Riley's, IIRC, it may be intended to be more than just a reference. Personally, I've been wondering if Riley is a descendant of Aaron. --Pie ~♪♫ 20:06, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- This descendence thing is a pure fanwank, so far. If the anime doesn't explain this, it will stay fanwank forever. But I doubt it since Riley and Aaron don't co-exist (yet, maybe). --Maxim 20:15, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- Well, chances are pretty good of Riley appearing in the anime, given the record of DP character appearances so far, but not very good of a mention to Aaron, given the record of referencing movies. But considering that they come from two completly different points in time, look the same, were both designed by Sugimori - I sincerely doubt the similarities are merely a nod from one canon to another. --Pie ~♪♫ 20:21, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
