    Gonna whip this out again. It's what the female version of the dance is supposed to be.

    The difference is that the female vanu look into it. They're actively dancing to be aggressive. Female characters however are just going through the motions. "Arm... Arm.. Salute... Salute..." They look bored and very nonthreatening, which beats the purpose of the dance.

    Could it perchance be fixed by changing the eyebrows of the performing character?

    Lmao, that made me spit my drink on my laptop.

    Also, I'd say maybe. I think eyebrows also could make you more adorable. K-on Example:

    I don't mean changing the eyebrows themselves, but their position. A great deal of expression is in your eyebrows. The Miqo'te on the last page looks fierce performing the haka, but her hair hides her eyebrows. So it could just be a problem with the eyebrows making it look expressionless.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I mean, I get that the female dance looks a bit expressionless but I'm not sold on that being in the movements.

    Oh, yeah I suppose, though wouldn't that mean we'd have to spam the angry emote to look fierce? Btw I think the faces already have a mean look to it, its just the body movements that seem to break apart from it and make it look all synthetic and silly. Like hat robot from star wars.

    thing is if you look closely the vanu doing it to pc doing it look completely different. the vanu knees are bent slightly where as the OP shot the femake looked like a barbie doll stop motion, you can clearly see the foot movements on the female vanu where you can't really tell on a pc character.

    Other differences the female arms are slanted out pc arms stick straight up.

    also the vanu female doing it looks more fluid the pc looks more jerky.
    @ thread

    instead of telling people to get over it how about actually consider what is really being said. And what fans were requesting.

    The female version is on the left side of the picture and is not bending their knees. The vanu on the right side has bent knees.

    The female Vanu has bent knees as well, but hers are bent forward whereas the males version is bent sideways which makes it (the dance) look more obvious and more powerful.

    no offence but.............. -_-; joo blind

    I also took dance growing up and know you want your knees slightly bent for more fluid motions. Vanu female the legs are together knees are bents lightly to allow more fluid steps. where males legs are seperated and they are more squatting, this makes the bend look more noticable.

    PC characters are straight legged so the movements look more jerky.
