The bodies and limbs of Japanese comic characters are closer to real people, the heads and eyes are larger, the noses and mouths are smaller than real people, and the hair is of various colors. Depictions of race and even gender are vague. The age is mostly set in the teenage stage, so the face has relatively few contours and wrinkles.

These settings have become a recognized setting in the world of ACG works around the world. According to research by American experts, they originated from the hands of a Japanese cartoonist in the 18th century. However, this concept did not officially take shape in Japan until 1960.

So, although "Doraemon", "Gegege Kitaro" and "Miss Salamander" are Japanese comics, their style of painting is more cartoon-like, which is somewhat unsatisfactory compared to the above formula.

The character structure of Japanese comics is:

Three-headed body (young)

Five-headed body (Loli, commonly used by Shota)

Six-headed body (15~17 years old)

Seven-headed body (high school student)
