Coincidence, I think. There's only so many ways you can dress a character.

I myself have seen people wear the same exact things I have before.

I feel like it's not necessarily coincidence, but not really intentional either...

There are tons of Anime character that look alike.

Some examples off the top of my head...

Some I don't have good pics of that I know look similar.

Hagoromo-Gitsune (Nurarihyon no Mago) and Yomi (Ga Rei)
Misaki (Kaichou wa Maid sama) and Aoi (Beelzubub)

Tons more. Characters that look alike also tend to have the same/similar personality, such as the annoying blond rich b----- with the crescent roll hairstyle or w/e its called. Lol. Anyways, all the ones I posted above have similar personality. Even Loki and Ichigo have their similarities other than looks.

imo there are plenty of characters with similar character design, but hardly any of the other ones really seem as prominent to me, mainly because i see those character designs a lot anyway, especially in #1 and #2 - those are very typical anime girl/guy designs. the only thing striking to me is the outfit of the characters in #1, but then again red/blackish is a pretty typical clothing combo..

as for #3 & 4, i can see the similarities, but i don't find them that strong

and yomi from ga-rei and that other person with a really long name.. that's like probably one of the most common designs i've seen in animes.. you might as well count mio from k-on and ai from jigoku shoujo in there too + many others i can't think up at the moment.

between the bleach and fairy tail series (in the animes at least), in terms of character design, the only thing loki and ichigo really have in common is the hair. what i was really wondering was whether it was purely coincidental, or whether the artist for fairy tale was subconsciously influenced by that image of ichigo he'd probably seen somewhere at some point in time without realizing it when designing loki, seeing as that image of ichigo was released over 6 years ago.

Is it a coincidence that I look like my mother?!

Too many look alike - it is a cartoon after all, so it's bound to happen :ghost:

And many eyes are too generic; although I would like to see a decent bald character in an anime without the crazy hair.

The only bald character I know is Yasu from Nana..

wow e__e

34 looks like either shion or mion sonozaki but i don't know for sure. also i don't mind if CLAMP recycles but i'm totally biased D: my favorite style of theirs is from chobits (not sure if they've recycled that style, i only know a few of their series). i find it so incredibly cute
