Poor Image: Biological Mash Up

I see the arrows pointing to parts of the body that are mashed together(although I can't see it well, I'm just guessing based on context) but the labels are in Japanese, and I can't read them at all. Is it just me?

Maybe something like this?

edited: image changed to an easier to see image.

No, it's not just you. Whoever thought Japanese labels was a good idea...it's not.

But I can't really see what you're suggesting?

The current is horrible. is good...lean toward the second over the first. Discord from MLP:FIM would be a good option too...the old IP thread for Beware the Silly Ones had some good pics of him.

I like the 2nd better too

I like the first Digimon on the white background. And it should be easy to put together a multi-panel set of the component mons, if desired.

Current image:

Just want to mention, based on the description, this trope isn't about a creature who is designed with different creatures in the first place. That trope is either Mix-and-Match Critters (when it involves a mix of real animals) or Hybrid Monster (when it involves a mix of fictional creatures)

This is when two or more separate characters find themselves sharing one body. So Discord isn't an example.

This is a terrible, terrible name.

I suggest we temporarily put this off, because it might turn into a TRS matter. The page gives some nasty chimera misuse.

Well, if that Kimeramon doesn't count, Paildramon should, since it literally mushes two mons together. All digimon are sapient characters.

There are ancient Egyptian gods that did it too, but the most-often illustrated were the least illustrative examples, so to speak.

I think we should show the two characters when they're separate, and have two arrows converge from them to the combined monster. That way, the image establishes that it's two living, autonomous things smashed together into one organism.

^ Agree that "two (or more) autonomous creatures fused into one creature" should be apparent from the image, but disagree that such a schematic figure would be necessary.

Here's Horus-Set: [1]. Not the best, I know.

Sakon and Ukon?◊

I don't know if it's my Fan Myopia talking, but I think those might work.

I am unable to have any fan myopia for that show or whatever it is, and I think the second and third images are very clear and good. I like the second best.

That.

I like the 3rd one best.

Clock is set. I like the color Naruto pic. There's also this guy◊ from One Piece or the three◊-headed knight◊ from Monty Python And The Holy Grail.

Ugh, not One Piece.

The second Monty Python one is very nice as well. I like it. But then I like the Naruto pics too.

Agree with all of the above.

What about some of the chimaerae from MOTHER 3?

I'm sure I can do a screenshot of several of them if requested?

The chimaerae are already being used for Mix-and-Match Critters, though.

I like the second Monty Python image.

The 2nd Knights of Ni is best.

Here's that one at 350 px.
