Anime - Nami, Naruto, Ryuk. So were the original designs of your favorite characters

The manga and anime industry, as in other audiovisual media such as cinema or television, have a start as a brainstorming where the author writes different interesting ideas and then apply them or not depending on what situations or part of the history. That is why many of the ideas that initially seemed to be very good at the beginning were ended up discarding at the end of the process, such as when the 2018 God of War was going to be in Egypt instead of the fjords.

• One Place-name and Kanji
• Naruto-all team 7
• Hitachi China and GAAR
• Baku no Herstal Might and DEU
• Death Note-Ryuk
• Dragon Ballgown

But it is quite curious to see, especially when we talk about anime, see the idea that the author had at the beginning of his trip about what characters. That is why we have put ourselves to investigate a bit on different websites to bring you the different designs that were initially to be part of the most famous anime in the world today, such as One Piece, Dragon Ball, Naruto or Baku no hero Academy.

One Place-name and Kanji

Name has evolved quite a lot since his first appearance in One Piece where we saw her with a short hair and eager to give war. After the Time skip we saw added that refresh the character, although it is true that we did not need to see certain parts of his body to grow so that it was a more strong character than feminine.

However, the original design is quite curious, since Odd initially seemed that he wanted To Cloud to burst Midgard with a nuclear bomb.

On the other hand we have Smoke Kanji, the eternal chef smoker of the crew of the straw hat that we all know him for his distinctive black suit with blue shirt. With the Time skip he did not have as many drastic changes as Name, Frank or Us opp, but the little added gave him enough charism that lacked the character.

However, if we see the original design that Odd had thought, it seems that instead of using her legs and avoiding damaging her hands to cook, she was a legendary gunman who had no rival, an aspect that we have practically never seen in the work since It has always opted for superhuman powers and white weapons, such as cabanas or giant mallets.

Naruto-all team 7

The work created by Marathi Hashimoto has collected an incredible legion of fans who have not stopped and see the adventures of Naruto Suzuki and the entire team 7. However, if we look at the original designs, the Managua style About their protagonists were much more Steampunk and Mac arras than those we know normal.

Naruto had long hair and seemed to be much more rogue than it was, Sakura looked a little more rebellious than the definitive version and Leisure looked much more hostile and colorful than the avenging emotion we met later.

Hitachi China and GAAR

Hitachi is, for many, the best character in the entire series. Its thread and narrative development began being very mysterious, knowing only and only that it ended with the entire China clan and get the necessary power to activate its Sharing an mango. We will not make spoilers of its development, but those of us who know its history know how special it is for the series and how important it was for Leisure.

The design was initially far from the final, making it clear from the beginning that he was a very hostile and lonely person. It also seemed that I was going without a shirt, and I was not going to have long hair, two things that we did not imagine if we think of the current Hitachi.

From the first chapters we knew that GAAR was going to perpetrate in the heart of many Hashimoto anime fans. His fight against Rock Lee is historical, and his character evolution is spectacular, despite the fact that in Shipped he became a more than secondary support character.

If we see the original design, the author was sure from the beginning that the character had to be very enigmatic and fed by hate. Of course, it seems that the sand was not its main weapon originally, but it was a dog with the Kanji so controversial on the forehead that does not mean what you all believe.

Baku no Herstal Might and DEU

The greatest hero of all in Baku no Hero was not always as we thought. All Might is easily recognized by its huge muscles and wide smile that carries it everywhere despite all the damage it has received throughout its career. However, that force seemed to be much more focused on other aspects in its original design.

As we can see in the image above, there was going to have a kind of scarf that we imagined would become part of Professor AIAA's outfit while the most expensive seemed to be a sketch of the fire that surrounds Endeavor's face, although The muscles have stayed there to strengthen their smile.

The protagonist of the series, Izuku Midoriyama, is one of Shōnen's great characters with Benji, Atari or of course, Monkey D. Luffy. It is true that his evolution has grown a lot over the years, but he is still the child who is a one day wanted to be like his idol All Might.

However, the original design was quite a lot from what was going to be the successor of the One for All, especially for its pints. If we look, DEU was initially going to wear a suit and his hair, also long, he opted more for mystery and duality. What surprises most is his face, which urges being a villain than the hero we all know.

Death Note-Ryuk

One of the first anime that became internationalized worldwide also had changes in its beginnings. Yuk, the Kirigami that a boring day delivered the Death Note to Light Salami, was not the gigantic and terrifying demon that we all met several years ago and that impacted so much throughout the world.

In the beginning it seemed to look similar to that of the protagonist, Kira, being much more human and with the appearance of a person like any other. It also seems that he has a skeleton spice behind him that he would give that infernal touch that we like so much, in addition to having a deadly look that transmits that hostility that the final Yuk gave.

Dragon Ballgown

Last but not much less important, we have to talk about Dragon Ball, the most emblematic anime series in history. The work created by Akira Oriya has fallen in love with all thanks to its recognizable and memorable protagonist, Son Roku, a middle monkey child who came to Earth after Frieze destroyed his home and family.
