they can be just characters but they´r real in the virtual world and why 你 asck? because even if they'r not real they provoque feelings in the most 日本动漫 lovers. 你 can look at a drawing and say that its very preety but that thing that your seeing doesnt realy exist ( if your looking at a draw of a 树 for example). its just a drawing and not something that moves 或者 你 can touch it like it was a real 树 (on this case). do 你 understand now? even if he is a character we can see the art on it, the beuty of the personality and phisicaly aspect.Simple as this!! ho and my favotire is absolutly 火影忍者 XD
