The Poli and Yari lore

Just saw the event going on with Fanbox and I decided to talk about some Poli and Yari lore because they have always been there from the very beginning.

Poli ain't a very original OC, her design was heavily referenced on Misono Yuki from the H "Maki-chan to nau" which is in fact my very first H and I remember watching that one 2nd episode a lot on my PSP lol

The twintails, ribbons, chocker and shy personality comes from Yuki.

Poli's simple design hasn't really changed a lot, some would say she's the human form of My Melody and you could be right! She's an avid My Melody fan and her bikini has the same color palette of her hoodie. Below the old and new Poli!

Yari on the other hand... She was originally one yandere big tiddie anime girl unoriginally named "Yandi" and funnily enough when Yuri from DDLC came out I immediately saw Yari as one big bootleg lol

I believe she's the character I've re-designed the most.

However... When I became a loli or (for some) a flat shortstack artist I couldn't resist bringing her back. Unfortunately, I never made any use of her first design and instead I re-designed her again later on lol

As you can see, her headband ribbon thing is a huge reference to Kancolle's abyssals (Is that game still up btw?) Below the "old" and most recent Yari:
