I was bothered when I went to the Bleach discussion of the and found out that the show was actually listed as being part of this trope. And then, I found this arguement.
...
•In Bleach there's an increasing level of homogenisation in Kubo's artwork as the manga (and by extension the anime) has progressed, where previously only a few characters shared similar features it seems he's working off a single face-shape template now (as of the Battle for Karakura/later Hueco Mundo arc) for every character only changing eye colour, skin-tone and hair-style to differentiate between them. For a quick example compare Byakuya and Ichigo from the Soul Society arc to the current arc and two characters who looked very dissimilar now look almost identical. ◦"Exactly how do I resemble Kurosaki?"◊ ◦Young Zangetsu looks like the love-child of Aizen and Byakuya, and both the current manga villain and the Kubo-designed villain for the Hell movie basically look like Aizen with a haircut and different clothes.
...
Is it just me, or does this whole conversation miss the point of the entire trope? I've seen other examples, where the characters have VERY simular facial features, to the point, to the point there is very little to no difference between ANY of the characters.
Yet with Bleach... I'll admit that there are some simularities that are shared between the characters. However, when you start commenting about how this character looks like these two combined, rather then all these characters look practically the same... well, the point of the trope has been missed.

Only Six Faces can describe more than one basic type, as the name suggests.
If almost all the characters in Bleach are based on around three or four basic templates, they are still Only Six Faces.

This material seems more like Image Links material — but we can't handle the text encoding and the links are 403'd. Pretty sure the problem there is that they don't want people linking directly to the images and are picking up the HTTP referrer header: if you are moving this to Image Links try linking to the page has the images on it, if it is publicly accessible.
Also we don't want single entry lists of subexamples or double stars being used in the place of paragraph breaks. Please see Example Indentation.

Re: Current image and caption, * does anyone have a screencap from when they were hatless and bald? It was in the one where they join a David Blaine cult.
Google Images isn't really being helpful in that regard, but it would be nice to have the caption link to a pic since it's not just a quip.
Support stupid freshness, yo.
Contains many "examples" that are actually counter-examples. The Disney and Sailor Moon examples, though, are awesome examples to be sure.
Which ones are the counter-examples? I've looked at it and everything on there fits the trope—same nose, same facial shape, (usually) the same eyes.
On the comment on the main page: ================== Anime and manga typically use a large amount of eye variation (employing all sorts of non-existent eye colors (red, purple, etc.), ========================
