Thank you for a gorgeous time
If you watch Sin City with the Commentary on, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller bring up how Marlon-Brando-y they feel Marv and Mickey Rourke are a number of times, so I figure it would be only natural for pretty Marv to look like young Brando.
While most of these guy’s whole identities revolve around being a gruff hunks of swaggering machismo and would probably be horrified, the guy whose biggest hangup is his crippling self-esteem issues would probably be having a great time.
On that note, almost every character in this is based on real fanart I saw floating around DA and Fanart Central. Oh hey! And the artist behind the original Sailor Pyramid Head is fine with us droppin’ links here!
Oh! And if I may plug a couple of my bros, pop over to The Cherry Spitz site to enjoy their 100th podcast extravaganza! They recorded live so you can hear me cheering in the audience :P They’re a funny group of folks, if you’re in the SoCal area I recommend hitting up one of their shows! And speaking of funny people, fabulous WaiCon headliner John Robertson set up a Youtube game based on his infamous Dark Room bit that I recommend anyone who wasn’t fortunate to see him live in Perth check out. Even if you did see him live, it’s probably still worth playing. It’s like your own little private heckling party!

Well I don’t think anything can top Sailor Pyramid Head.
I think Sailor Pyramid Head is my favourite of the lot. ♥
I hope that was one of the fanarts.

You’re welcome
Oh sweet Christ that makes me want to dance around tearing my eyeballs out. <3
THE HEAVY IS SO CUTE
HE LOOKS LIKE AVATAR AANG!! XD
HEAVY IS BABBY
That is actually very ironic in the most amazing way.
Yeah! I mean, it explains . . . absolutely nothing, actually. Still, it’s pretty funny.
Sailor Pyramid Head was almost more traumatic to look upon than Bishounen Kratos’ hair.
That being said, Coelasquid, any chance of you giving us a sketch of just Sailor Pyramid Head?
I might have to cosplay sailor pyramid head
lol
I wasn’t the one who came up with that idea, just somethin’ I saw on DA.
Nonetheless, it should happen. Just… not by a dude, unless he’s really androgynous.
I am also seriously considering cosplaying this. I already have a Sailor Uranus costume made.
Given the nature of Pyramid Head, Sailor Uranus has an extra level of ironic punning appopriate to the concept.
I think that’s what makes it more fun.
Mine too! But there are so many other greats! I thought I laughed hard at the last strip, but this is just the best!
how about sailor Pyramidhead riding the Mr.fish of the previous page?
by the way, who did a fanart of young GanonGIRL?….wait…he is a dude?
Thank you for making me realize that was ganon i was rather confused who the chick was
Yeah, Ganondorf is looking disturbingly hot right now, if a bit skinny.
I know nothing of The Legend of The Zeldas, So Many Zeldas Running Around, but Gannon comes from a race of warrior-women, doesn’t he? Not a lot of men around? Makes sense that he’d draw on a more feminine style in his youth, considering his influences…
Surely that is one of the greatest things I have ever seen.
Oh what fresh new hell is this? :\
well, now we know its a bishonen bug and NOT a japan bug…otherwise we would have tentacle pyramid head…O_O
I feel a need for a side-by-side comparison between what they’ve been changed to and what they “really” look like. Mostly because I don’t know who some of them are!
This is a major coincidence as I got hooked reading through the entire Silent Hill wiki before I dropped by here.
Also…Pyramid head doesn’t seem to mind the sailor outfit..I think.
That was a bit of genius right there.
I’m only posting to say I love the username. SPACE MUTINY!
My FAVORITE MST3K episode EVER. And yeah, Big; that was my favorite of their nicknames.
Best transformation of the lot.
What happens if Nier hits Link?
Probably nothing.
two words…
“Wind”. “Waker”.
Violet Link from Four Swords.
Ahah! http://thepunchlineismachismo.com/archives/427 Marv!
THANK YOU! I was totally lost…
Brb….brain bleach and cleaning up the cranial vomit.
Oh man, heavy weapons guy.
He looks like Charlie Brown…
Check out Weapon Brown, then (NSFW):
http://www.whatisdeepfried.com/2008/04/07/weapon-brown-1/
I-i-impossibru! Bishie Heavy can’t exist, the universe would collapse on itself. ;___;
I see that movie coming on…
In a world where manly men do manly things.
He was there only hope.
“I am just a Nerd” Jared
“It’s cause ye’r a Nerd” Captain

“You locked down the whole building?!” Kratos

(Into music from AC/DC starts)
Get mad.

“And I am all out of gum” Jared
“Heyyyyyy” Duke

2012 coming to a Panel NIER you!
You are quite genius.
Jared played by Michael Cera.
Pyramid Head in a Sailor Moon fuku…. I’m laughing so hard I’m almost crying!
So any one hoping P.Head wasn’t infected and just in his laundry day outfit/came back from a con/Crossdressing Wednesday? Not to say P.Head bish would be impossible, just I can’t see how one could make a monster rapist who already wears a dress/butcher apron.
I saw one once where game version P. Head was acting all girly because he had a crush on the bigger, more muscular movie P. Head. Surprisingly adorable, but I can’t find it now …
I’m not sure who my favourite is. It’s a toss up between Kratos and Pyramid Head. Pyramid Head’s outfit is great but I don’t think I can deny that tuft o’ hair.
Gotta agree with you, there. It’s a contest on who looks more ridiculous… though Pyramid Head doesn’t really appear to care – Sailor rape, anyone?
I love how they all look so pissed about it, except for Sailor Pyramid Head, who’s just rocking the outfit like it’s any other day. XD
Since when does PH feel emotions?
He actually sorta looks like he’s enjoying it
Him being a physical embodiment of guilt and (sexual) frustration, “when doesn’t he feel emotions” is probably a more appropriate question.
…is that Sissel from Ghost Trick in the middle panel?
Pretty sure that’s Duke.
imagine if that was how duke nukem forever looked like
I think that’s Duke…
Hah! was thinking the same thing they look reaaaaally alike
For Comparison
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ea/Sissel.jpg
That is Duke. I thought it was Zeke from Zombies Ate My Neighbors for a second but I saw the clothes and his expression.
ZAMN FTW~
Actually, I thought it looked a lot like Dirk Strider..
That is exactly what he looks like. Now every time I read homestuck I won’t be able to see dirk as anything but bishonen duke nukem. God dammit.
The worst part is, the more I think about dirk’s character, that exactly what he is, at least he would be if he wasn’t gay and didn’t like horses so much…
While I’m happy for Marv, I can’t quite get over the horror that is Ganondorf who now looks like a pouty teenage girl….
Holy fish paste… I thought I knew that was him but having that verified is like… O____O
Omg yes, agreed. I am crying sparkly tears of shame for him. My poor dear Great King of Evil is now the Mediocre Princess of Livejournal… ;-;
all the internet is yours Grotto. Words cannot express the lawls I recieved from that last line.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeen, thank youuuuuuu X3
I realize it’s weird to say… but I would tap that
Well he was raised in a society full of women.
Clearly he’s got a head start on the others in bishiness.
THAT’S Ganadorf?! Good GOD!
It took me a second look to realize that the pouty teenage girl was Ganondorf . . .
There have been so many Zelda fangirls trying to turn Ganny bishie over the years that I think he had psychic pressure exerted over his transformation. *nods sciencely*
I have completely seen Ganons that bishie.
Totally. I think I still have scars from the first time I ever tried to find Ganondorf fanart.
I DO think you went overboard with Ganon though; that’s not just a pretty man-bug like Jared described it. Some of these guys became less manly, others just turned into women with flat chests.
Though I suppose we have earlier fan works to blame for that. But still. There were so many shades of Bishie in between the two versions of Ganondorf that he might as well have boobs.
I am totally down this infection advancing to Rule 63, thank you
Oh man, and I was wondering who that was. Actually I was leaning more towards “girl who wandered in by accident”.
It’s kinda…appropriate. Ganondorf is the sole male of the Garudo tribe. …and now, he’s just another one of the females.
D’awww, this is wonderfull!
… shame though, Jared seems to be proving my marvelous spectaculations wrong >:
But still oh so wonderfull. However, a lot less dramatic than I would have anticipated…
*starts to hope for some kind of a scheme and a grand surprise awaiting in the next couple of pages*
Cannot stop laughing at pyramid head
So do you think their voices change too?
Also, I think the Heavy looking like a baby doll is hilarious.
Heavy is… BABY!!!
Cry some more, Heavy! Cry some more!
Entire Heavy is… baby! Somebody call Saxton Hale!
Speaking of which I’m pretty sure he’s immune to that bishie virus. It’s just not possible.
I would’ve thought 99% of these guys were immune to the bishie virus.
Sadly, the immune response manifests as sparkles, primarily around the eyes and face, and requires motor oil, cigars, or an SUV to cure. They would have to be exceptionally big, obnoxious cigars, too, as evidenced by Roman Torchwick.
ENTIRE TEAM IS BISHIES!
I am so loving this <3
Is that Sten in the middle panel? And if so, is he braiding or unbraiding his hair?
Re-braiding, I would assume, based on his great look of annoyance at how much of a pain in the ass it is and how bishonen-esque the rest of his hair is.
Well right now it’s making him look like Rihanna.
omfg
I would assume re-braiding, judging by the number of formerly short-cropped hair styles that have been converted en-masse to long, flowing locks.
*tears hair and clothes in mourning*
Steeeeeeeeeeeeen! (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
There can’t possibly be an existing fanart of this T_T
Aw, it’s gonna break Marv’s heart if he has to go back to his original appearance.
Maybe they can find a way to cure everyone else, but make it so he can’t transmit the disease and keep the transformation.
Or maybe I’m just thinking too hard and should go back to laughing at bishie Ganon.
I would have thought Snake would have morphed into Raiden, instead.
Yea I was thinking the same
Some get him the mask from MGS3!
Ditto.
Naw, Raiden is a different character. Who, upon being subjected to fan backlash, turns himself into a cyborg ninja. Although it might indeed be funny to have Snake use that as a temporary cure and then end up ancient and ridiculously grizzled when it reverts.
Bwahaha! pyramid head you look glorious. XDDD
I love Pyramid Sailorhead.
The guy bending down in the middle panel reminds me oddly of Bro from Homestuck… who is not a bishie, and possibly qualifies for this job agency himself. At least, if they aren’t the sort of folks who mind puppet erotica.
Ha he kinda does look like bro! Also yeah i think your right between the things bro did before being killed by a space warping demon dog. Would qualifie for the agency. As long as the commander didnt find him passed out in a pile of plush puppet ass in his office.
I am so glad I’m not the only one who instantly thought of Bro when I saw him! I was afraid Homestuck had warped my mind worse than I realized xD
So glad I’m not the only one who thought that. About that guy looking like Bro, I mean.
It’s official: Bro Strider is bishie Duke Nukem
Dirk Nukem:
Watching movies, making puppets, and being mistaken for a black cat from Ghost trick.
Ah, I’m not the only one!
My thoughts exactly!
Also: if slicing a meteor in half with a katana doesn’t qualify you here, nothing does.
Hell yes! Say hello to Dirk Nukem
Captain Falcon, noooooooo!!!!!
I’ll admit, I laughed at Captain Falcon the most.
He just got skinnier!
Looks like…Speed Racer.
Snake, you… you look just like one of my Japanese animes!
I’d love to see how Raiden reacts to this.
Probably…
“Fuck! He’s still manlier than me!”
Heh, yeah. Doesn’t look bad, though.
Holy shit Duke looks just like Dirk Strider.
He totally does
YES. EXACTLY
HELL.FUCKING.YES.
Indeed! :o)
Anyone else think that Duke looks like Bro Strider?
This is probably due to your art style (no offense), but they don’t look too bishie to me. Ganondorf is the only one that really looks the part.
Full-on disagree. Ganondorf is the only one that looks TOO bishie to me. I mean, even bishounen should still have something that makes them men.
like I said, based on true fanart.
Your call. Then again, my main experience with this comes from a good friend of mine who wrote a Miracle Train parody fanfic about French Resistance rail saboteurs sabotaging the rail line, so I’m probably not a good barometer. Commander Bishass looks more like David Bowie to me, but that’s just me.
For the fic in question, it’s here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7770974/1/Sabotage_de_Metro_Miraculeuse
Who is the guy with the scar in the first panel? If it’s Zuko, he’s already bishie enough, but whatever.
I’m trying to figure that out too, if you mean the guy on the far left. Now, the one who really looks like Zuko is poor Kratos, the poor, bald, blood crazed God of War and Destroyer of Olympus has been brought down to the level of Zuko-look-alike, topknot included.
I think the guy with the Scar in the first panel is Sandor Clegane/The Hound from Game of Thrones/ASOIAF.
I’m almost certain it’s Zuko. He looks almost exactly like the fake Zuko from Ember Island Players.
If it is him, I’m not sure whether I should be laughing at his indignity, or sad that the first time we see him in the Manly Guys office is when he’s been Bishified.
Bwahahaha! Ohhhhh too too good.
XD I love that half of them look like girls and half of them look like kids.
Sailor Pyramid Head is the most glorious thing ever.
the poor heavy looks like a scout now
He looks a little like Aang now.
Ganondorf looks like a normal Gerudo now. What.
Damn! Why couldn’t they have all be in sailor outfits? :D Love Sten’s hair trouble.
All that changed for Jared to get prettyfied was that he lost his “beard”. Know what that means? That means he’s already plenty pretty enough… apparently.
On that note, I can’t recognize some of these guys for the love of me… Is that sad or good?
Perhaps the virus’ effect is inverse, The more innately masculine said person is the more effiminate they become?
Since Jared isn’t like the rest here the virus had a reduced affect on him.
I’m guessing Jared just rubbed up against the Commander while the rest got slashed, like, y’know, the Commander.
Pyramid Head seems to be having a ball. At least, that’s what I can infer from his posture… and from the fact he’s not slaughtering everyone due to his trauma.
On another note: BISHI STEN!! MY EYES!! AUGH!!
THANKYOU!
I was filled with so much anger at seeing pretty Sten… it’s JUST NOT RIGHT!!
I’m not angry at Coela of course, just angry at this… THIS CURSE!
THIS CURSE!
MAKE ME UNSEE IT!!
Honestly though, had he not been putting his hair back up in dreadlocks, would never have known it was him. I mean, looking closer at him now and seeing his face, I feel kind of silly for not realizing it sooner, but… it’s BISHI STEN. It’s like something right out of Nightmare Island.
Well done, Coela!
Oh lord, I just realized: Kratos has no nipples. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
Also, Snake looks like a Yu-Gi-Oh character.
Nipples = H, so this makes sense…
Tee hee.
…shouldn’t Solid Snake have turned into Raiden? ^^
Think about that for a second. To imply that the bishi version of Snake is Raiden would mean you’d have to accept the concept that the manly version of Raiden… is Snake.
Is that really something you’re willing to accept?
please dont say such things, its messing with my head, god it hurts
Maybe this has been said before (441 comments at this time…) but it kind of makes me want to see the virus(?) mutate and do the reverse to some bishies (for example those in the comic where Sten complains about sword balance).
Maybe in a “Bishounen Agency” across the street? :P
Alright, it kills me to say this because I am a huge fan of hulking hotties… But Sten actually looks fantastic.
Seconded. He looks fffffffffffine.
Mm mm mm tasty
Ganondorf and Sailor Pyramid Head are making me laugh so hard XD
I feel bad for Marv… T_T It’s kinda cute and funny now but he is going to be so unhappy later…
I know what the Heavy was based on… Those damn BASE’s on deviant art where people can think they have artistic talent or original characters.
Here’s a link: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&q=base
Nothing’s more original than adding some hair and clothing on someone else drawing. :)
(Please note that while using Bases is not really a crime, I just think they should be used for practice instead as a medium for art)
I wish I’d known of these before I started costume design class…I can’t draw people for sht.
Actually, there’s a for-realz painting of a jewel-eyed Heavy floating around out there.
Yeah, I have to say, Bishie!Duke Nukem looks a lot like Bro from Homestuck.
Nonetheless, I say Sten was the most horrifying reveal. Ganondorf is almost unrecognizable now, too.
XD I died when I saw pyramid head. (sorry if he has another name I don’t know it)
Technically it’s “red pyramid thing” but the only people who will get on your case about it are assholes. Pyramid Head is the most widely accepted.
Ive never seen so little muscle mass in this comic before xD
Pyramid Head… just wow
Seeing some pretty massive spam in the top of the page just below the comic. Just a heads up!
To everyone who keeps saying this: it’s your own damn fault for having malware on your system, and being too techno illiterate to fix it.
PROOF: i am not seeing it, never have, and am using ie.
It is not the site, it is you and your lack of knowledge. Deal with it.
I’ve mentioned on several occasions that someone is in the process of rebuilding the site. It says right on the blog.
Good lord, Duke. You’ve…
You’ve become Dirk Strider!
Why do I fail to see that as a bad thing? c:
Someone help a sister out and do a panel-by-panel roll call?
I can tell who must of these dudes are, but not all of them.
Top-to-bottom and left-to-right who’s who would be great.
From left to right:
Panel 1:
– I honestly don’t know
– Heavy (Team Fortress 2)
– Marcus Fenix (Gears of War)
– Pyramid Head (Resident Evil)
– Kratos (God of War)
– Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)
Panel 2:
– Ganondorf (Legend of Zelda)
– Duke Nukem (Duke Nukem)
– Sten (Dragon Age)
– Captain Falcon (F-Zero)
You’re welcome
We now know that panel 1 – I honestly don’t know is Sandor “The Hound” Clegane from GRR Martin’s ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’ fantasy series and the TV show ‘Game of Thrones.’
Yes, that does make it THAT MUCH MORE AWESOME!!!!
I’m almost certain that’s Zuko from AtLA. Don’t know Ice and Fire, though, so it could just be my ignorance speaking. But the hairstyle and pout are too similar to Ember Island Players Zuko for me to think otherwise.
The problem with that guy being Zuko is that he was never all that hyper-buff in the first place. In fact, Zuko can be considered a pretty boy, and there’s no need to actually bishify an already bishy character.
*psssst! You mean Pyramid Head (SILENT HILL) not from Resident Evil!
Resident evil? RESIDENT EVIL?! aaagh i know its not entirely your fault, but you just’ve just insulted everything i love!
Lol Marv looks so happy, and Captain Falcon’s expression is just awesome but I think Pyramid head actually looks even more scary now.
obviously Pyramid Head is the most manly (mentally) because hes the only one uncaring of his appearance enough that he may as well not have even noticed…
or he may be cringing endlessly under that helmet…its kind of hard to tell…WHERE IS THAT PARTICLE MAN?!?
It’s not a helmet. That’s why they call him Pyramid “Head”.
Doesn’t this mean that Marlon Brando is a bishie?
SHHHHH… They’ll kill you for saying that!
I think it’s more that Marv is Just. That. Gnarly.
I think you’re right, he was too far on the other end of the spectrum that the effect didn’t send him all the way like the others.
Say what you will he looked hotter before hand. I have no trouble dealing with scars, my ex girlfriend had scars over like 70 % of her beautiful body and I had no trouble with that. His scars mean nothing
Strangely enough, Mickey Rourke used to be pretty good looking before a rather unfortunate choice to go into boxing. That was before Sin City and whatnot, of course, but before the boxing debacle, add some facial hair and this is pretty close to what he looked like.
I remember his Rumble fish days. I always thought he looked more Bruce-Willis-y that Marlon-Brando-y, though. Fun fact, actually, Brando used to be an amateur Boxer too, his nose was straight before it got busted up in a fight and the surgeon mangled it in the process of putting it back together. Tennessee Williams was heartbroken at first, then decided he looked better that way because he was “too perfect” before.
i think jared should give them all beanie babies for valentine’s day! we should all be so lucky…..
Oh man, where to start…
-Sissel from Ghost Trick got a haricut and he looks nice, haha!
-I see a popular way of turning a character bishie is to make ’em kids (shota, is it?).
-Who is the guy with the scar? I feel I should know this.
-I lost control of myself with Marv’s reaction and lastly…
-I don’t believe Coelasquid’s last statement. I just don’t. I need to.
That’s not Sissel from Ghost Trick, that’s Duke Nukem.
I was joking, that’s why I “haha’d”. I should’ve made that more evident…
The Heavy looks like Aang! With stubble though…
How is Ganondorf ever going to turn into a giant pig monster and battle magical teenagers now? He’s prettier than Link, for God’s sake!
Oh, god, Link. Who else thinks that if Link gets hit with this, he’s going to end up as a fairy? Full-on Navi style fairydom.
Heh. That might be able to cheer poor Ganon up a bit. :)
Oh my god. I just pictured a cute little pink pig prancing around.
Poor Ganon. Poor, poor Ganon.
Looks like some are taking it better than others. Duke Nukem look almost suicidal about the situation. Kratos seems alright with it, after all now he has hair.
w-w-what is this, i dont even…HNGGGGG
Better go get laid Marv before Commander cures everyone… somehow.
Marlon Brando can never be bishied. Doing so is kind of like trying to go faster than the speed of light, the universe simply won’t allow it.
There are neutrinos that travel faster than the speed of light. :)
Actually, they did some tests and found out that neutrinos DO NOT in fact travel faster than the speed of light. Merely that there were errors in the calculation in measuring how fast the neutrinos travel. Neutrinos either travel just as fast as light or maybe a little slower, but not faster.
you need to get with the times. ftl already exists. proved in quantum physics.
einstein was not the end all be all, and he disliked even the idea of quantum physics and particles, which he termed “spooky”. sadly, it’s real.
Has not been proven. Particles that travel faster than light are still hypothetical and don’t seem likely to ever enter in the theoretical phase of science.
However, I would like to add: No, only this Universe will not allow it. Other universes where the speed of light is slower than the fastest velocity in that universe, or where faster than light velocity is possible it is possible there. Furthermore it is possible to warp space to simulate faster than light speed or find short cuts and other such nifty tricks.
I could have sworn an experiment in particle physics was showing their test particles showing up before they even began the test, indicating that a.) particles can travel faster than light, or b.) are capable of travelling backwards in time. However, without linkage or proof i will acquiesce. for now.
Thanks. Now i have to go hunting. Of course, even if i’m right, the only feasible useful application would be communication to the past, and one-way at that.
They did, and it seemed like that nutrinos travel faster, but scientists who support relativity questioned the accuracy of those tests, as they should. And what do you know? They find errors in the calculation.
Pretty Boy Snake doesn’t look like Raiden.
I am disappointed.
Agreed, I cannot help but chuckle every time I see it.
Clearly he’ll now transform Sailor Moon style in to some sort of cute pig furry. Oh god, the image, make it go away!
Crap, that was supposed to be a reply to Face of Evil.
This is the page I have been waiting for and it it is glorious.
It was the worst of times, it was the best of times.
So is Marv just so manly that he just becomes normal rather than girly like everyone else?
I assume it’s because Marv is actually ugly, whereas the rest of these guys are at least relatively attractive, in an extremely masculine way.
more a case of, as someone said, his original look is just so goddamn gnarly, beaten, and broken, rearranged wrong, set, and broken again, that the bishification could only do so much….Me thinks that Marv might also just have a natural immunity from, again, his overall gnarlyness. I mean, face it, he’s from a world where bullets and knifes and everything else behaves to human flesh like it should, but HE took a hundred+ bullets, a massive beating from a super evil and sociopathic cannibal spiderman on crack, AND THEN finally taken out not with one dose of human barbequeing electricity, but TWO…Thats gnarly even by game standards, without any kind of health potion or super human healing factor.
Said it before say it again a lot hotter originally
I demand a bishie Canadian Guy before this is done.
Agreed!!
I looked so hard for Canada Guy!
we need bishi Canada Guy!
he’s obviously immune.
Have you ever seen an unmanly Canadian?
Michael Cera and Justin Bieber? Not jumping no any hatwewagons against the Biebs, just saying that there are indeed canucks who lack that certain manly flair.
I think Coelasquid might have a NOPE reaction to bishieing the character based on her dad.
The solution is quite obviously to make him look like her mom.
A Bieber-ish Canadian Guy :C
Thanks for that mental image.
*Raises hand*
I’ve looked in a mirror, dude. My female cousin is more manly. Her younger sister is more manly than me. HER younger sister is also more manly than me. And HER younger brother, who comes up to my knee, can beat me in an arm wrestle.
:p Yeah………….. I think the bishie virus would do the same to me as it did to Jared – maybe it would even GIVE me muscles (turning me into Lieutenant Armstrong from Fullmetal Alchemist, ‘xept with black hair).
I think I might qualify as the basis for a slightly unmanly Canadian. Sort of. Though I know of plenty who would do better.
Canadian Guy being bishified might tear a hole in time and space. I mean the guy’s entire reason for existence is his outdoorsy manliness, he more or less was birthed from the mountain by the universe’s need for a perfect deranged and inscrutable northwoodsman. Take that away and there wouldn’t be enough of him left to thread through a needle.
No! Don’t request it! Remember…Coela won’t draw it if you request it!
Wait…Coela, can you draw batman? Pretty please!
THE MADNESS!! THE MADNESS!!!!!!
What I have seen can never be unseen…
Wait, why is…Pyramid Head…Sailor outfit…rghblrghrbLRGHBRGGHGRGH
–did you just turn into a Murloc or am I playing too much World of Warcraft? XD
So, who IS the guy with the scar int he first panel. I really feel like I know him, but I can’t put my finger on it.
Think Game of Thrones.
“Game of Thrones” will now be “Extreme Musical Chairs Power Pack Hour! K.O!”
Oh, awesome. I had it right. Whee! Go me. :D
Sandor Clegane!
Also, did you get that thing I sent ya?
Oh damn, for some reason I totally missed that in my inbox! Ahahahha that’s great!
Post it! :D I’m sure the people here would love to see it.
OMG. Did one of you do a bishi Potamus from Harvey Birdman?
Hmm. Well he is purple all over….
HAH! No, I did not. But you’re giving me ideas, STOPIT!
… WTF???
OK. This has gone out of control (besides Jared, since he only lost his beard.) Heavy looks like Aang, for heaven’s sake. And Ganon looks too girly!
Duke looks like he’s got a crazy bad hangover going on. Captain Falcon looks a bit nerdier than Bishonen I think, what with the oversized helmet and all, but otherwise I think these are pretty good interpretations.
Clearly this just a case of Jared rubbing off on the whole agency than Nier going around sissy slashing folks. you think one of the guys would have kill him on provoking.
Wait what would logan look like? Would he look like his official anime or be a more hairy X-23?
Daken is already “Wolverine as reinterpreted by 15-year-old-anime-fangirls”. Pretty young rebellious bisexual half-Japanese Wolverine with sleeve tattoos and a mohawk and an extra claw made of a magical broken samurai sword that comes out of his wrists like a big suicide scar and pheromone control powers that let him make anyone he wants fall in love with him.
I hadn’t thought of it that way but that would explain why the writing went down hill real fast.
So did you/I ruin a future gag where the gang “pretty men who follow brando laws” finds daken pass out and mistakes him for logan?
wait that’s prince zuko? If so then this isn’t Bish virus just the Deviant flu.
I don’t believe I said anything to indicate that was Zuko.
Some one did, though this means we have 1 scared face unknown manly man with a swimmers body.
Another couple people already got it.
Bishi wolverine has already been done. Here is this bucket to barf in …
http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-content/uploads/wolverine_anime.jpg
AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Why? Why? Why?
Hahaha no I will happily pretend that is NOT Wolverine, looks nothing like him. LALALA….
Looks more like Rogue got rule 63’d
Prince Zuko has hair! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!
That’s not Zuko. Get yer manly mens straight, boy/girl!
pssst it’s Kratos
Don’t worry Moon, I thought so too. But apparently it’s someone from the odd “Throne Game” series.
HEAVY IS BABY! D:
Seriously though, as horrifying as these interpretations are, I enjoy any dig at the bizarre trend of “bishie-fying”. Honestly, if people love these characters so much, shouldn’t they at least try to draw them accurately?
Then again, if you told any of those artists that, they’d be all “FUK U, it’s mah STYYYYLE!!!1!” Ugh…
Sometimes, what people seem to like is the char concept, or just parts of it… and then grab that concept, mash it into a pulp and spit it into a page calling it ‘my style; =D
I, uh… I don’t see a problem here.
Pyramid head is the best!
I love Sailor Moon Pyramid Head
“In the name of the Moon, I will rape and mutilate you!”
Alright silent hil just got 80% more dangerous
Is… is it wrong for me to be absolutely and completely in love with bishie-fied Ganondorf right now? I just… holy hell. Damn.
Yes
I cannot stop laughing at this.
Seconded!
OMG, my prayers have been answered! 8D
SANDOR CLEGANE! <3
I know. I was trying not to say anything to all the WHO IS THE GUY WITH THE SCAR ON THE FIRST PANEL? questions. I recognized him because of the scar and the outfit. LOL
Not…everyone watches GoT =\ I don’t get what’s so bad about answering that? Surely it’s better to answer a question than having 20 -30 people in a thread asking WHO IS THAT *shrug*
Exactly … I’ve only read the books and I didn’t get it either.
And ruin the fun?
Seriously, even if I had said who it was, would everyone else gotten it from that?
Probably not.
…Wait, so does this mean that P.Head is female in the games? Cuz that would really change the whole dynamic of his(Her? It?) actions in both the games…and in the comic..*Twitch*
Okay, I made a comment earlier about Commander’s glasses, but this time it’s legit.
Dirk Nukem. If there was a game, I would play it.
And now, I have to find that fanart. Oh GOD I have to find that fanart.
I learn something today from this comic,
duke nukem is Dirk Strider and Yomiel.oh god Jared stretching in the second panel.
So he turning into a Reed Richards?
Is it wrong that I find your artistry of deviant-Ganondorf frikkin hot? As a man, that rendering has me questioning my straight-ness. -.- Well, that is until i see that sailor pyramid head girl! =D ~Thank you so much for all your premium quality work, there isn’t a better comic on the web, and i just wanted to express my gratitude towards your hard work. You keep me laughing every week!
Hey man its cool, he’s a really pretty girl now
Bonus points for Sailor Pyramid head.
OH GOD IT’S DEVIANTART!
You know, the more I look at him, Bishi!Commander looks a bit like a Suda51 character, actually reminding me a bit of Travis Touchdown.
Sadly, this is not an improvement since Travis is prone to being a raging asshole and honestly isn’t very manly. (though at least there’s a good reason why he can swing around his giant swords given they’re mostly made of energy)
Commander’s forehead in the 4th panel O.o
*rubbing headachey brow* Why do people keep thinking that’s Sissel? Why would Sissel even BE at the agency, much less show up randomly in a comic where the whole point is all the big guys being turned bishy? WHY?
Besides if Duke was sissel he would be much smaller, and black, and hairy.
Shhh! >3 Don’t give it away!
Well this was moderately horrifying. Sailor Pyramid Head is going to haunt me for days. But, you know after years of everyone being bishified, I’m kind of over it. At least most of these guys still look like you know, men.
If there isn’t there should be an internet rule that if it exists there’s a Sailor or Lion version of it.
This. So much.
Or a gender-swap, sparklewolf, neon equid, or color-swap of it.
Actually the gender-swap rule already exists. Rule 63.
So everything looks brilliant and I really like this storyline, but it scares me a bit that almost every character in this is based on real fanart I saw floating around DA and Fanart Central.
Also, I feel sorry for Marv, because when everything gets back to normal (and I know it is going to, sooner or later) he’ll be mad and sad.
YES I feel sorry for a character from a funny webcomic (because it’s a parody so he’s detached from Sin City for me), THAT’S why this is my favourite webcomic in the Citadel!
wait that means someone had made fanart of all these characters as brando lookalikes.
Jared Brando,
aww im so happy for marv
But once the infection is cured, he’ll be back to his regular old self and that’ll be sad! :(
Just to get off my soapbox of correcting the less enlightened, i will put this out there: sten now looks like tifa from FF. AAAAAAAAAAHHHH!
And i think ganondorf sure got the worst of this one. Looks like karmic payback for mentally boning link so much. ♥ it. ♥ it.
Is that Marcus Fenix from Gears of War in the foreground of the first panel? Because oh dear god.
Tiny Weapons Baby: Run, cowards, run! Before entire team is babies!
Poor Zuko. That hair and scarf is more punishment than Ozai could ever inflict. (That is Zuko in the top right, left? I mean, top left, correct?)
Nope.
I’m pretty sure Zuko was bishi to begin with. This guy’s from Game of Thrones. :)
Actually, that guy is more manly than Zuko ever was in the show. The only similarity is the face-scar.
Ah, Ganondorf is in his gerudo outfit and not in a suit like usually. I take it that his gerudo clothes are his, leisure clothing.
I usually just read the comic (and I have with great enjoyment for about a year now) and browse the comments occasionally – but this time I HAVE to say something:
Pyramid Head in a Sailor Moon outfit had me laughing hysterically. That is by and far the funniest bishification I’ve seen in the entire page here.
It’s all in Sten irritatingly trying to reform his corn rows. That’s a bitch to get right.
oh my God, it’s Dirk stri-*punched*
In all honesty, I’m crying. How the hell is Heavy supposed to be a Heavy? people actually draw him like that? The cretins
PH has nothing wrong with him.
That captain falcon is pretty hilarious looking.
I was picturing him with blonde flowing locks spilling from his helmet.
Lookin’ pretty FAB there, Ganondork.
OMFGWTFBBQ! Sailor Pyramid Head!? Seriously!? -cackleflail- Fukken epic!
…yes, I know, I used the forbidden word. -puts money in the Epic Jar-
Poor Marv, though! He’s going to be so upset if he gets cured of his Bishieism.
looking kinda school-girly there pyramid head
PH seems to give exactly zero fucks. Duke looks like one of those characters from Xenon’s generic Final Fantasy RPG comic (the one who will not be in the sequel), Heavy looks like a baby (ironic), Ganondorf looks like a beautiful woman, and Kratos needs to pull his pants up.
jesuschristhowhorrifying.png
…is Kratos even wearing pants?
Is Ganondorf a woman? I can’t tell
Pyramid head in a Senshi getup.
I did not need to see that. You are a terrible person. Thank you.
ALSO: Why does Pretty!Duke Nukem remind me of LT. Surge?
My trainwreck syndrome behooves me to wonder: WHAT kind of bishie Sten has Coela seen? All of the ones I’ve seen have been suitably craggy.
Also, Ganondorf and Sten are extremely, extremely pretty. So much so I forgot bishie-itis doesn’t carry a genderbend component for a bit.
Duke came out of this pretty well, from what I can tell. He’s still got a masculine face and shoulders, he just needs to bulk up again and he’ll be manly in no time, as opposed to other people who’s features became too bishi.
And now that I’m done saying that I’m going back to giggling at every single thing on this page.
And by came out pretty well I just mean “Got off easier than the others”
Yeah I agree with that, Duke isn’t too bad. Normal hair, too.
Too…many….BISHIESSSSS!!!!!
Where’s the muscle? THE TESTOSTERONE!?
Poor Sten. I still love you.
Oh my god, I dunno when I last laughed this hard.
Wait, who’s the chick next to Duke?
No need to continue the story arc. I think I’ve laughed enough for the whole trip :P
Kawaii Zuko, kawaii Heavy, kawaii Marcus Fenix, Sailor Pyramidhead, my little Kratos, Dragon Ball Snake. Bishi/slightly girly Ganon, emo-bishi Sten, Kamen Rider-Captain Falcon and..I don’t even know about Duke..
And prettyboy Marv ♥
It took me until just today to realize who he was. *facepalm* … Maybe the retro glasses threw me off… OTL
Ganondorf confirmed for god-tier trap.
I LOVE HOW YOU DID PYRAMID HEAD! AHAHHAHAHAHHA! PROPS TO YOU! YOU MADE IT WORK!
I love how the “fukken plastic doll skin” means they’re all making the same face (with minor variations, of course.)
I have this urge to see regular non-bishie Pyramid Head in a sailor suit. I think there is something wrong with me.
Gotta say I like Captain Badass’s “new” jacket/coat/thing. Sides that I can’t wait to see him back to his old self.
Sailor Rape is rocking one sassy contrapposto.
Is it bad that I think Bishie-Commander’s new outfit looks pretty damn good?
I knew that bishi-fied Ganon looked familiar. Now I know why.
So will Link look exactly the same?
Well, at least Ganondorf fits in with the rest of his race now.
on the feminin part, yes. But the size of the nose is a bit off :)
What in all of creation is this nightmare? Bishi Sten? Bishi Marcus Phoenix? Bishi Solid Snake? I don’t…I can’t…*BSOD*
I’m officially changing Blue Screen of Death to: Blue Screen of Denial after reading your comment :p
*drools, stares blankly* Munfwalla n’tiesahn Ry’sie Chthulhu Di’ri’al Yx’ila….
Bishie Ganondorf is the sassiest thing I have ever seen
I’m not gonna lie…I thought he was just a very flat chick.
Dare I hope… is that Sandor Clegane in the first panel???
We must nuke the site from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure!
oh god…the bishonen strip from so long ago…now they all can’t be here any more…
You know, Bishie!Sten just looks like a non-tattooed version of Fenris. :P
I find it extremely funny that Captain Falcon’s outfit hasn’t changed at all.
Oh man, no Canadian Guy there! I hope he shows up uninfected, wondering what the hell is going on. That would just piss the Commander right off, I bet!
That would be absolutely hilarious. I bet his tendency to roam around in the wilderness would have kept him isolated from Nier’s virus XD
Canadian Guy’s Manliness is too powerful to be overwhelmed by a simple virus.
Wow, I can see how Ganondorf’s transition was almost entirely facial and follical, there. I think the only change to the OoT outfit was dropping the gauntlets and shoulderpads/collar things, am I right?
Today I learned bishie Captain Falcon looks like Commander Keen.
haha, Bishie Duke is like the best thing ever :D
>On that note, almost every character in this is based on real fanart I saw floating around DA and Fanart Central.
That must have been painful.
Jesus, I think poor Heavy got the worst of it
Oh my god. OH MY GOD. There is ENTIRELY too much win on this page. I..I am at a loss for words.
Wait, so, if it did THAT to Gannondorf… what’s it gonna do to Link? Will he turn chibi or something? And I’m not looking forward to seeing Marv’s mind snap when he changes back…
Ha, I love that Jared can’t stop touching his face. I feel the same way whenever I shave my beard. It’s just such a naked, awful feeling.
Poor DBZ hair Snake! Though I am a bit ashamed to say that I did not recognize Ganondorf at first, and, indeed, my eyebrow went up. (so pretty) Then I realised who it was and felt such great shame. I must go commit sudoku.
Umm, how exactly do you commit a number puzzle? And yes, snake is pretty bad off with that hair.
YOU MANIACS! YOU PRETTIED IT ALL UP! DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!!!!
“TO HECK” would be more appropriate, in this case. One of the rare occasions, due to the prettiness.
*shudders*
he’s qouting a planet of the apes line. the real one, not the remake. although i hear its good.
If you’re talking about “Rise of the Apes” it’s more like a prequel than a remake which could lead to a remake. But if you mean the 2001 remake…no that movie is crap.
Pretty Duke Nukem looks a little like the protagonist from Ghost Trick in casual wear.
*points at several bishies, suppressing both laughter and cries of horror”
*finally recognizes Ganondorf, runs away screaming*
On the other hand… hey, Marv’s happy! And excluding Jared, he’s the least bishified of them all! Everything isn’t all that desperate.
I want to see how the Commander and the other Gnarly Ultra-Macho Guys take revenge on Nier for ruining their Machismo!
Well it’s how you act not how you look, the agency was made for reeducation so if horribly turning them into jareds help them adapt then, maybe commander should call this an exercise.
also Game of thrones guy must be REALLY manly to get have enough muscles to pull that face.
The Best part about the whole Marv/rourke Brando thing, is if you look at mickey rourke from the 1980s he basically was a pretty boy, then he decided he hated that image and became a Terrible prize fighter for a couple years, got his face rearranged and now he looks the way he does. Check out Angelheart, or Harley davidson and the marlboro man. He’s the guy who you’d think was kevin costner.
Marv now looks like Brando.
In the bizarre-and-vaguely-defined timeline the Commander is from, Brando is worshipped as unto a god.
I predict a religious conflict is incoming. Getting rid of the bishie infection would mean no more face-of-Brando. To the Commander it’d probably be the equivalent to finding the cure for AIDS meant having to kill the Pope or something.
This is how awesome Coela is–despite the horror of the bish virus, I am agog at how good they all look. XD This is partly schadenfreude from the looks on their faces, but still. As the original characters, they’re horribly twisted as per the entire point of this, but the revamps in Coela style have their own certain… something.
Except that tuft on Kratos’ head. Dear god what.
Way to rock the sailor fuku, Pyramid Head. XD You just went to a whole new level of creepy.
My word….SWEET MARLIN BRANDO! THEY ALL LOOK LIKE THEYERE 13! Everyone has been infected with Kawaii Rabies so it seems! I’m really impressed you could figure out how they’d look bishie, then again you did say these characters have a bishified selection on DA….and knowing DA it went for a few 100 pages worth…
…..Did Duke Nukem just transform into Dirk Strider from Homestuck?!
Bishie Snake still looks manlier than Raiden though that can’t be hard. Also anyone noticed Commander Badass’s coat tails and Leather pants?
Poor Jared lost what little testosterone he had.
Ohshi— THAT’S GANONDORF.
Took me a minute.
Who’s that Mary guy?
*Marv, I mean lol
in the first panel on the left who is that? coz it looks like zuko from avatar to me.
Once again proving that some of the people who create fanart have a loose interpretation of the word “fan”. *shudder*
That being said, I’m already feeling so sad for Marv! This is going to be like having to watch Ben Grimm turn back into the Thing.
Oh wow this is too good xD They look so weird!
Is that Commander Keen on the far right of the second panel? If so, so many props. I played the crap out of “Good Bye Galaxy” as a kid.
Future Commander needs to show up and put Present Commander out of his misery. This is a war crime.
Fan-art of Pyramide-Head!?
in that cloth!?
For a dead guy that rapes corpses!?
*Double Facepalm*
The only way things could get worse for Ganondorf is if he starts getting hit on by Link…and Ganondorf is STILL a guy.
By far the funny sh!t I’ve seen in a while. Thanks!
I would so do pyramid head
No. He would do you.
Hahaha poor Marv!
Aaaw. Marv always looks good!
Kratos! Falcon! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
The fact that Simon Belmont hasn’t been part of this story yet is a hugged missed opportunity.
At least it’s cared for?
Simon was infected a long, long time ago. Like, mid-’90s.
NOOOOOO! Not my manly hunk of Qunari!
DEAR GOD.
Nier must be stopped. Some of these guys are no longer recognizable!
I love that Pretty Sten is putting his hair back in cornrows. Beautifully flowing hair just gets in the way. Always the practical one, that Sten.
Anime-hair Solid Snake is wonderful, too.
I keep thinking every time one of them loses their manry essence that something somewhere is turning from a bishounen into a mega beef cake. Just like, one person absorbing all that.
The images.
I love this comic sooooo much XD
BTW, ever heard of the game Shadows of the Damned? Garcia Hotspur of the game is the embodiment of mexican machismo, you should check it out sometime. Keep up the fantastic work!
Marcus really just looks younger and less beefed up haha. I love how Marv is enjoying it.
Is it bad that I think Bishouen Ganondorf is kind of cute? >.>
I love how Duke looks like Sissel from Ghost Trick.
Well, at least we haven’t seen a bishie Leonidas or a bishie M.Bison as of yet >_>
I feel like Captain Falcon shouldn’t look that much different.
My two favorites are Pretty Ganondorf(long sexy hairrr), and The Captain and his poofy hair.
It kind of looks like they just all got a whole lot younger as opposed to anime-fide.
Because they’re not anime, they’re just gratuitously pretty.
I don’t think they’re supposed to be “anime-fied” necessarily, just “bishie-fied”. I mean, while rarer, even anime has some manly men sometimes. I’m pretty sure she’s just going for the general “pretty-boy” aspect without drastically changing the art style, considering that would sort of affect the feel of continuity. Also, if anyone’s not infected, having a manly and bishie character appear next to each other would look strange if there wasn’t still some resemblance to the previous style.
Wow I lost to Coela herself. ._.;
Well, and because I’m sure I’d get a handful of people saying I was anti-anime or racist or some garbage like that (I’ve heard it before regarding this sort of thing) when I’m really just making fun of people who take big gruff dudes and make them unnecessarily pretty, or put immaculately groomed, delicate people in rough-and-tumble roles. I’m not even anti pretty-dudes, it’s just, you know, time and a place.
If you’re only a fan of a character like Ganondorf if you’ve turned back the clock 20 years, surgeried some chunks of flesh out of their face, and put the brain from the star of a trashy token exploitative yaoi book in their head, you’re not really a fan of that character.
THANK YOU for this, Coela. Ten years ago when I was down south I did this thing called an “oxygen bar”–it was weird and trendy; you sit on a leather barstool and they hook a cannula into your nose and you breathe in flavored oxygen for however long you paid to have it. When I slid off the stool, my brain was so not-used to “good air” that I felt dizzy for a second, then amazingly clearheaded.
Which is what plain old good sense feels like when I hear it, I’ve decided.
…Waitaminute why isn’t Ganny wearing his business suit? Business suits not bishonen enough for the virus?! POPPYCOCK! LOOK AT THE ACE ATTORNEY SERIES!
Ganon looks really like a girl!
OMG…Kratos, what happened to you…. oh and, BTW, nice work coela.
So basically, Marv is already so, so manly that when infected, instead of going full blown bishie he just turns into a more handsome kind of manly? Except he’s still gray.
i’m a little disappointed in myself. I honestly thought Gannon was a chick. pretty one too…
Who’s the guy on the far left of the first panel? Surely not the Hound?
WHAT SICK MAN TURN HEAVY INTO BABY!? SOFT FISTS WILL POUND HIM TO PIECES!!!!
Anime Sten is making the best of his situation.
wonder if Steven Heck could resist the bishie infection ….anyway the need someone with medical knowledge, like Medic (TF2), Fabius Bile (wh40k) or perhaps Dr. Big McLarge Huge (Emp) one of them must be able to cure this horrible disease
Whooooa. Ganondorf makes a hot girl. o.o
Okay, I know he’s still technically male, but I’m just gonna pretend otherwise… <3
I find it completely hilarious that I can’t even recognize most of them now that they’ve been bishonen-ified. It’s weird, and pretty much about right.
Actually, the Commander kinda looks like Rocket Billy Red Cadillac…
First thing I thought of when I saw Duke was Dexter Holland.
… So, uh… Coelasquid… is your Pyramid Head doing anything after this strip?
In the name of the Seven. Sandor, is that you? Strange probably turned into a character from My Little Pony…
Huh. At first I didn’t even recognize Marcus Fenix with a neck.
I was trying to figure out if I was reading Pyramid Head’s posture right. To me it either looks like it’s expressing an impatient/frustrated/annoyed/disgusted pout (similar to what Ganondorf is doing), OR a posture that says, “Damn I look good, and you KNOW it!” I like to think the latter. Yeah Pyramid Head, you work that sailor outfit, work it!
And what is Solid Snake up to? Is he planting claymore mines? (perhapse with the shape charge pointed at his face to try to blow the stubble back onto it)
Also, is it just me or does the Commander look like he needs a keytar?
I just thought of something. We’ve already determined that the virus effects non-organics so what about the Big Daddys? Can you Bishiefy a Robot? Coelasquid is this something we have to worry about?
Oh God a bishie Robocop, it’s like a train wreck you just can’t stop staring.
I… I agree with the horror, but I also think the answer is ‘You can probably find it on the internet’?
Duke’s expression just kills me.
Believe it or not, Besides Marv, I don’t think Duke didn’t get it as bad as the other. Yeah its bad, but its Duke Nukem were talking about. He can work something out If this gets really bad.
Wait…if the dudes look like teenage chicks, so that mean, that Women are going to look manly dudes? Oh God NO!
Gannondorf looks fabulous.
So, Marv is SO rugged that when bishified he looks…. normal. hah.
I’m going to rip my eyes out now before the virus spreads to Wesker.
I dig Snake’s Super Saiyan ‘do! Kratos looks weirdly “The Last Airbender”-ish. Ganondorf is actually pretty sexy, what with that hair, I must say, though now he looks like a sexy Gerudo chick rather than a sexy Gerudo prettyboy XD. Duke looks like a rock star kid and I love his chin touch like “where did my manly jaw go?”
I like how Jared keeps rubbing at his face as if his beard might come back.
MORE GIRLY MAN SHENANIGANS it is great to see their reactions…
For some guys, it just works. XD Yay for Marv!
Captain Falcon looks vaguely like he expected to find boobs on that chest. XD
Falcon… GROPE!
D’aww, Captain Falcon looks so sad
Wow, the pelvis and leg positions for PyrHead and Ganon are awesome. PyrHead really does look like he’s just chillin’, rockin’ that skirt, and I swear that I’ve never in my life seen a male hold his hips like Ganon is!
I love the look of annoyance Sten has as he immediately goes to rerow his hair. And five rows done in the time it takes for Commander to grab a cottonball and growl at his desk, with hair that thick? O.O
Are the Commander’s glasses… glued to his forehead? Can he even wear those?
I can’t decide whether Jared is rubbing his chin hoping the ‘beard’ will come back, or is admiring the texture of porcelain made from fine kitten pelts. XD
Oh man, does this mean that Mr. Fish is going to become a Milotic?
This is funny, but I still don’t understand the bishounify thing or whatever it’s called.
If the virus did this to the manly men what will happen to poor Jonesey (Sarah Jones), Something like a negative bishounen or that apply to all the current bishounen from
http://thepunchlineismachismo.com/archives/899
Skirted Pyramid Head is the best thing EVAR.
why does kratos have a pebbles tuft while heavy looks like a dirty cancer patient?
Because they’re all based on real fanart.
Two words Coelasquid: Canada Guy.
Of course, I don’t think there would be any change at all. ;D
Marcus looks a bit like Jared once bishiefied.
I kind of want to cosplay sailor Pyramid Head.
I regret nothing.
squeeee Sten looks so adorable Bishie’d… I demand an Arishok Bishie >:3
*Frying pan*
NO BISHIE FOR YOU!
Late response is late, but I think Caiterhe may have you covered for that one. Check the link in my name.
For all those who can’t escape.
Check this and leave the dark room!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNQSBQ7akyw&src_vid=R8xou64tSNE&annotation_id=annotation_315424&feature=iv
Ganondorf is still a man, but now is more like, you know, Kuja (I’d hit that too).
Great comic.
Why must Ganon be so hot… This has to be an anime bishie disease as the Commander has Kamina’s glasses and PH is wearing a sailor mars outfit. Heavy looks like Aang (yes I know, not anime but close enough) and then Snake looks like he has super saiyan hair, only brown.
Christ this comic is funny. Chapeau.
At first I went, “Hey, who’s that hot brown chick in the middle.”
Then I went, “oh god. Oh god that better not be Ganon. oh my god.”
I like where this comic is going.
Is it Monday yet?
Alright, three notes.
1) Sailor Pyramid Head is simultaneously the most surreal thing and the only thing that makes sense.
2) Bishie Sten is just adorable with his pissed off face as he rebraids his hair.
3) Bishie Ganon is wrong. Just…wrong. Give me back my buff Ganondorf in a suit.
Oh shit! I didn’t even recognize that as Ganon, I thought it was a chick… Wow…
I wonder what bishie canadian guy looks like >.>
Hahaha, this pleases me. I was 17 years old when I made the original Sailor Pyramid Head back in 2004. I was drunk off my ass and forcing my wuss friend to play through Silent Hill 2 while I was doodling in my sketchbook drawing random monsters and Pyramid Head. My inability to draw male bodies (be it drunk or sober) prompted me to go “ARRRRG! Fuck it! Sailor uniform… NAO!” …then I had the brilliant idea to scan and colour it. An hour and a half, and four shots of Jameson later… IT WAS BORN.
Ahahahah wonderful! I’m glad you got a kick out of it, I didn’t link to any of the pieces of fanart that inspired me for this because I was worried people would go pick on them (I’ve seen it happen when I’ve name-dropped things before). To be honest I went with Sailor PH because it’s hard to animuu~ up a character with no facial features, so that seemed like the easiest out :P
I think you should have made Sten a white guy like in those mods, just to really drive the home.
There’s a narrow line you have to walk to keep the characters recognizable.
I’m guessing you tried this and he just sort of looked like a generic anime amalgam.
Also, that was meant to be “drive the point home.”
I know how to fix this. Getting bitten by Chuck Norris.
they already proved that isn’t enough.
Knowing the little I do about Coelasquid, I freaking doubt it.
So, WoG has stated that the left-most character in the first panel is not, in fact, Zuko, but someone from the Game of Thrones show.
I think it’s the close proximity of Aang!Heavy that’s making it difficult to see anyone but EIP Zuko there.
Marcus Fenix wears a du rag, not a beanie, and has a military buzz. Not trying to judge, but Gears is my favorite game, so I’m a bit of a stickler.
And Pyramid Head does not usually wear a sailor scout outfit, but they have all been bishified. Now Fenix can be pretty like the rest of them. <_<
No Seriously.
Also, Coelasquid, I never comment on these, but I wanted to say thank you for posting and britening up my week. Your comic is hilarious.
Manly Marcus Fenix may wear a du rag and have a military buzz, but Bishie Marcus Fenix wears a beanie and is pretty. :)
Can’t argue with that logic. Also, thanks for helping me figure out who that was. I’ve never played Gears of War, so I couldn’t place the reference.
He happens to look better than all the rest though, marginally
Nukem’s expression is priceless.
so with me3 coming out is shepard going to earn a place among the greatest video game bad-asses of all time? i mean he definately deserves it more than some of the others.
question, now i know that anime characters are generally girly, and the commander is wearing what appers to be kamina style glasses. Can kamina be an exeption, because he is pretty manly and awsome(imo)
Lookin a little Dale Gribbley there Duke
Wait. Waaaaaiiiit wait wait wait WAIT A FUCKING SECOND. Pyramid head is now PRACTICALLY female…and he’s in a sailor fuku…When the eldritch abominations come to rape him…will he accept it with glee? Will they fight to see who’s top and who’s bottom? Will they just fight? I don’t even…ow. My brain. OW.
Oh god, that’s Sten? Haha!
Coal what have you done :(
I JUST NOW REALIZED THAT WAS STEN. OHGOD.
Damn it Marv.
That awkward moment when its suddenly Tuesday… le sigh, no comic
Imagine any guy who would try something with PH…
I PITY that guy and how he would look like when PH is done with him!
Wait a minute. That’s what Vega says when he wins in Street fighter 2. Does Vega work there?
I make a lot of ‘this upsets me’ faces whenever I visit DA or clubkawaii. It feels like I’m making all of those faces right now.
Bishōnen must be some kind of cancer for sex appeal.
I object! These bishies are way too manly! Bigger eyes! Smaller torsos! Less facial hair!
(Before I’m tomato’d to death, I’m only joking! :P)
So for those of us who don’t play games too often, is there a list of the names of these characters?
*Squeals and hugs bishie Ganon* I love it! I love you! No longer will I scrape my knees as I worship the blond elf! Lovelovelovelove! EEeek! *faints from fan girl excitement*
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH BISHOUNEN STEN????? That is terrifying.
Bishi-Ganondorf. Oh my.
My, God, you’ve turned them all into Final Fantasy characters!
Now that I think of it, Marv becoming a Marlon Brando replica doesn’t make much sense… because Brando is manly as hell. Also, Commander B should kinda feel like meeting Jesus or something right now o:
But since this is too awesome, I’ll just keep on reading and enjoy your bishies, since they’re still much more interesting-looking than any japanese one.
…I’m particularly digging Sten there >_>
And Commander, how can you still look manly even in this Kamina-like attire? *mind is blown*
I lost my shit when I saw Solid Snake.
I cannot believe how behind I’ve fallen on these comics. And really… Sailor Pyramid Head. REALLY?! How could I have missed this?!? XD
Dirk Strider get the hell out of there.
Hopy shit this was my exact thought.
That is what I was thinking XD Damnit Dirk!
wow, Ganon actually looks like a girl.
Wow. The Heavy did *not* fare well…
No way that G-Man is a guy, has to be female.
Has to be.
Ok, Duke Nukem CANNOT be Dirk Strider. He’s nowhere NIER as hot as Dirk. Too many emotions shown.
I swear to the Valar that that is Dirk Strider right there.
I KNOW RIGHT
Yay, I’m not the only one!
me too
sailor pyramidhead….cannot unsee
Is it bad that I thought Duke Nukem looked like Dirk Strider?
(Sorry in advance)
is that dirk?
i think so
Much of this looks like an Awkward Zombie comic.
OH GOD WHAT HAPPENED WITH HEAVY
ALSO WHY DOES GANONDORF LOOK LIKE A GIRL JEGUS CHRISTICALS
Pyramidhead is actually creepier like this >.>
Has anyone else noticed Snake in the First Panel?
He looks like a Super Sayian with chestnut hair!
I’ve literally never laughed that much or so loud in my life! I swear, I cracked up so bad, this page is HILARIOUS, especially since I do have that tendency to like the bishie characters, but I’ll admit, your comic is actually making me warm up to these burly guys. Say, ever considered adding character cameos from “Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure” or other Japanese “bara” shows?
Omg, This must be the beginning of Yandere punch!
