Cheap Attractiveness

"It's what's inside that counts" can bite one.

What makes a role such as the Lamb, Edge, or Cute Girl immediately likeable. Instead of going for Inner Charm with at least partially deep Character Building, these roles opt for taking advantage of features that people generally favor. Effective choices include having an innocent personality, good sense of humor, or huge tits. Those in the Main Cast who use Cheap Attractiveness might find themselves the Fan Favorites if they play their cards right or are comparatively superior to the others around them. Picky fans who prefer character dimensionalism to basic catering may turn their noses up at Cheaply Attractive cast members. This dislike may spread to the in-universe Poison Envy or Hater Of Good who are both toxic to overly-popular individuals.

Unlike with other models for Character Creation, Cheap Attractiveness associates itself more strongly with fantasy than reality. Emphasis on "fantasy" as the UnTrash is often a tool used to manifest fans' dreams in one character. There's no need for substance when the Fan Service Doll invested all her role points into her namesake. She now has looks to fall back on, and luckily for her, it's a lot easier to be a Fan Favorite when you play to the crowd's tastes. Round, plump titties are the number-one move for Fan Service Dolls who go the route of the Chick. Not all large-breasted fictional women are shallow Fan Service Dolls and not all female Fan Service Dolls have large breasts. Still, the two are seen in such heavy relation that they've become somewhat inseparable for some critics. It's practically become a must to crank a girl's rack up to the max and carve her frame to curvaceous perfection if she's to hit it big with simping fanboys. Other requirements are excellent skin complexion, straight and white teeth, stylish choice in hairstyle, and a voice flowing like silk. All these parts together can result in a character who's more about the audience than the story they're in.

Cheap Attractiveness, like its nested UnTrashes Anime Cool and Anime Cute, is all about getting a character's reception skyrocketing among fans. It commands an arsenal brimming with tactless tricks that demand the audience blindly fall in love with somebody. It does away with the truly valuable aspects of a character like intelligence, usefulness to the Main Team, and the ability to fend for themselves. Instead of these, Cheap Attractiveness focuses itself on editing a character's appearance until they're good enough to draw all the attention to themselves. Basing somebody's whole existence on the viewers Hitting Like is fantastically counterproductive to the franchise's quality. Excessive Fan Service detracts from the function the series means to perform, which is telling a story in the best way possible. The viewers can't stay in the story once the writers begin making their influence over its characters unavoidable. Their Suspension Of Disbelief gets ignored from this point as they come to realize somebody only looks the way they do for audience approval. The more the creators turn their attention to simps, the more core fans will be turned off.
