Karai's Design

[Dante]

She might not be Hollywood material (the typical model type) but I actually prefer her this way.
It's fun to see a female character portrayed like this for once, instead of looking like some typical doll-faced beauty.
That's really been boring me lately so this new design for Karai has started tickling my curiosity.
Not certain what the word is in English but in Norway they call it: "Stygg pen" which means "Ugly pretty."
Not that I'm saying Karai is by any means ugly in this version, far from it. What I mean is that she's not typical standard pretty.

Even though I -shall- admit that the first time I was exposed to Karai's design I was all: "... That's not Karai, right?" followed up with an awkward silence.
Daymn, she either got extremely unlucky with the perspective of that shot or I'm going to be rather skeptical once she shows herself in the show.
Then the jokes about how she was looking like that on purpose just to piss off Shredder came to be.
She is after all in the age where you act out towards your parents. So snarky.

However, I have promised myself to wait until I saw her in action before I give my final opinion about her. It's kinda unfair to judge so hastily.

I have yet to see the episode she features in but my gut feeling after seeing that one promo to New girl in town is telling me I'll dig this chick.
And seeing more and more people adjusting to her design and having people like TheCollector filling us with some Karai loving, I bet I won't be disappointed.
