After all, it's a reboot of an American TV series made using heavily edited footage of an anime. We Baby Bears is this, in stark contrast to its parent series We Bare Bears. Since it has manga visual design traits and effects like shinier Black Bead Eyes, Wing Ding Eyes, Face Faults and such, not to mention the bears' more chibified designs, it looks very much like a Kodomomuke series. Xiaolin Showdown uses Asian-influenced themes and window-dressing and uses visual gags commonly found in anime. The character designs, however, are distinctly western. When X-Men: The Animated Series was dubbed and localized for Japan, new openings and eyecatches were animated that evoke all sorts of anime-related tropes; Anime Theme Songs, Speed Stripes, even a Beam-O-War between Professor X and Magneto.[3] He said that the supernatural basis of the fights in his series evened the battlefield for women and children to match up against strong men. [6] For Stardust Crusaders in particular, Araki was influenced by role-playing games in designing the characters' skills. [3] In creating the manga's generational story, Araki thought much about death and the legacy people leave behind in their lives for their descendants, after the death of his grandfather. He took inspiration from Roots: The Saga of an American Family and East of Eden. Araki focused on Roots for its family-centric story,[7] and he took the idea of intertwined destiny and rivalry between two families from East of Eden. He thought highly of stories that were well-received after changing protagonists, which influenced Araki's decision to kill Jonathan Joestar and write a generational story, passing on his "Spirit" to his own descendants. [8] The characters had no models, except Jotaro Kujo, who was based on Clint Eastwood. Araki stated that he wanted to try a different type of main character for every part; for example, Part 1's Jonathan Joestar was a serious and honest person, whereas Part 2's Joseph Joestar was a trickster. [9] Although their personalities are different, the two share a physical resemblance in order to have some continuity because it was unheard of in the 1980s for a main character to die in a Weekly Shōnen Jump series. [10] Araki's consistent focus on the Joestar family was intended to give a feeling of pride as well as the wonder and mystery surrounding the lineage. [9] Araki originally planned the series as a trilogy, with the final confrontation taking place in present-day Japan.
