A11, with the exception of war of the tengu, not one of those holidays were an original idea. I even have some chocolate bunnies and 4 leaf clovers in my inventory somewhere. This game has referneces to everything from the Three Stooges, to Get Smart, to The Princess Bride.
Since there are other occasions in the game where the devs have taken things from pop culture, real world holidays, and various movies and TV shows... You can't outright say kitty ears would break the world somehow.

This is Guild Wars, not anime. The day this comes to fruition is the day there is nothing left of what guild wars was meant to be.
There are already plenty of kiddie, cartoon, anime themed games out there for people who get aroused by cartoon little girls. (Who are always magically endowed with D and C cups when disrobed.)
The glasses are a crippling enough of a blow.
Suddenly we now have hipster dervishes who look like gaytarded college students running around because the design of the glasses is far too modern for the MEDIEVAL FANTASTY THEME of the game.
You want to add cutesy furry hentai fantasy ears too? how about SD head//hands and Anime eyes as a face set? How about cell shading?
This is starting to sound like gaiaonline.. Yes let's all go down THAT road..

Having vague pop culture references is ALOT DIFFERENT than having an armor piece that everyone has to look at. Quotes, names of quests, names of characters are merely words. Coding meshes and equipping cat ears...not the same thing AT ALL.
Four leaf clovers...chocolate bunnies...candy canes. So what? Four leaf clovers exist. Chocolate exists. bunnies exist. Sugar exists. Cat ears...sure they exist too but they're part of a very different ELECTRONIC culture that has been adapted to real life because of that culture's popularity. The ORIGINS of cat ears are cartoons, anime, etc. The origins of four-leaf-clovers are natural. The lore surrounding four-leaf clovers was around long before electricity. Chocolate bunnies were around long before computers. Cat ears...not the same.

Well, if you know your armor, Female Mesmers have been parading around with Cat-like Animal Masks for ages... it is a Prophecies Headgear. So there is precedence for Feline Fetish in game.
I can understand why some people do want a classless headgear type. The only problem is that they will want the tail as well! Can't have the ears without the tail: Rabbit or Cat.
GWs parodies RL as much as they can. You just have to smile whenever you see the references to pop-culture scattered throughout the game. I feel sorry for people who don't or won't laugh at those said references and take things too seriously.

I also like that, as far as online games go, Guild wars is one of the more 'realistic' detail and character design wise. Throwing in anime elements takes away from that. A lot.
Sleeper Service
using the term realistic in a fantasy game is an oxymoron.
why is it ok to have a giant candycorn dancing "Thriller" with a discoball over its head while a mini Rurick wanders about nearby?
Restricting "Anime" to things like Naruto, neko/furries, or just hentai is sheer ignorance.

1. YOU are the one putting anime into a nice little self made up box.
2. Wth does weaponry have ANYTHING to do with this suggestion.
3. Magic and dragons and necromancers etc are part of MYTHOS not REALITY.
4. YOU bring up words like "realistic" and i say "giant candycorn". what part do you not understand.
5. What about headbands. you think HEADBANDS are an anime exclusive?
6. yes you clearly are ignorant, I'll even add arrogant and rude onto that description.
7. you quote yourself....but ok you know what? you have me all wrong there friend. Ore wa Nihonjin dakara....you can go an take your half assed insult and try again.
8. I do not use anime influenced names. can you not read?
9. you don't know what otaku is else you would not include it in this conversation.
10. i simply said "why not" to this proposal. never have i said i was a fan of furry tails.
dont bother even attempting to interact further with me. you are FAR too much of an idiot to warrant my interest.
Drakken Breathes Fire
Thanks for your novel, I'm glad I still *don't* warrant your 'interest.'
The weaponry has everything to do with the medieval Era, which this fantasy game is based, try again.
Magic and Dragons are indeed part of myth, which was also very prevalent AGAIN during the Medieval period, which this game is inspired.
Giant candy corn? A temporary magical effect from a tonic, given out by a magical being and his collectors. Witches can turn people into frogs too, just not in guild wars.
The style of headbands in Factions, although also having an obvious real life historical reference, were ONLY added to Guild Wars BECAUSE they were popular from 'Naruto.' (Are we catching on slowly yet?)
I'm not gonna deny any of your observations of myself. Why yes, I am ignorant, and arrogant, and definitely rude, but you also forgot good looking.
I see you can also speak a phrase in Japanese. This doesn't prove that you yourself aren't white, or ARE Japanese, it means you can speak one phrase of Japanese. Isn't the anonymity of the internet great? (And as for the ONE character name you have listed in your forum tag, what of your other 7-however many character slots?)
I know very well what Otaku is, and I know enough not to call anyone by it in good taste due to the negative connotations it *should* still carry. (Thanks to THIS man.)
But, yeah, cheers.

ok let me first point this out, THE WALL IS ALREADY BROKEN WITH GW THE FANTASY REALM IS SHATTERED.
next let me point this out.... CAT EARS IS NOT AN ANIME THING, so all those people who are saying that shut up already, first of all hundreds of cultures have worshiped cats, be it large cats *tigers lion ect* or small cats, like the Egyptians for one. there has also been a large bit or lore surrounding cat people, dog people, fox people, and wolf people *werewolves anyone* from many MANY a culture.
and my final point is the reason i originally /signed this, and something i hope to god anet takes into account with gw2. now i want you all to go into a town, any town with people who can afford any armor they want, take a good look around. you will see EVERYONE IS WEARING THE SAME SHIT. lol i mean come on, all male warriors have primeval dyed black of course, all eles have ancient armor and glasses ECT ECT ECT. and that is because there are few good options in GW. there is the one good looking set that everyone gets.
what i want more than anything else is more options on gear so that you cna make your character look how you like, if someone wants to run around in a pink bunny suit more power to them, it would break the monotony and make a much more diverse environment to play in. it would also allow you to set yourself apart from others. so that you can really tailor your character to look how you want and not see an exact copy of your char running around *this has happened to me*
i want diversity. cause if if you think someone looks retarded you laugh and move on, thats how it is IRL and how it should be for gw.
ok i think im done ranting for now.....

Willing to bet if the original idea was for Vampire fangs, skull helmets with huge teeth framing the face etc etc it would have been signed by many who have not signed this.
Its not the idea of going around wearing stupid masks helms ears etc its the cute aspect of it.
Which is a shame to deny players the right to be cute while reserving the right to look really scary.
apparently big spiky armor is cool cat ears that might make characters look cute not cool.
Jesters caps reindeer antlers snowman heads are ok though hmm double standards here methinks.

I won't lie, even know it would make all the Anime freaks cream themselves I would not mind it, I think my Ranger would actually look cool with them, although it is very unrealistic and will never ever happen in GW, still would be cool.

A) Is not animé.
B) Is not a a photo of some white kid who loves animé.
C) Is even remotely fantasy, and neither of the above.
*petitions for playboy bunny tats for monk.*
As for the 'vampire fangs,' That has the gay all over it aswell.
I would shoot it down faster than the tinted spectacles if I had the chance.
Bone helmets though?
Seemed fine in Diablo 2. You mean to tell me a Necromancer would never think of equipping something made from the remains of the dead?

I would love to have a pair of wings
wings would be easy i guess since it is already in the game.
and I wouldn't mind these either :P
another fun one i can think of is a halo and a wand with a stars that you can carry while you are in town.
This isn't bad either, and its already in the game, wander why they did not use it

WORSHIPPING AN ANIMAL DOES NOT PROVOKE A CULTURE TO WEAR BUNNY EARS FFS! Show me one SERIOUS individual from one of these cultures that is wearing fuzzy bunny ears. Just one.
The fantasy realm hasn't been shattered. Holiday celebrations have been around for a while...they just gave us a modernized version of something OLD. It would be ENTIRELY DIFFERENT to give us something that's completely new, and has no ancient cultural basis whatsoever.
Mark my words: if this were to ever become a reality, GW would lose a very very very large portion of its playerbase. Wintersday and Halloween were already getting complaints from purists...this would seal the deal and they'd leave. I like Wintersday and Halloween, and I'd leave. I know of quite a few others who would leave as well...namely my entire guild.
