I think you're projecting a fair amount. There's nothing busy about either Barq or Byte. He's a robot. They can't all look like G1 Transformers where they're just solid colored boxes

Considering the dev, I find it likely.

B&B all the way. That dog bot is so cool/cute.

You're just giving him the sympathy vote because he lost his family.
He's a big ol' softie, the monster with a heart of gold. This game's Hellboy!
But to be clear, I was talking about their music. :-O

I went through the songs and its good to see that I found most of them enjoyable but Ribbon Girl's easily stands out as the one I find the most catchy.
Two songs that kind of bother me though are Master Mummy's and Mechanica's, not in terms of the actual songs being good or not but more that I'm not really sure I feel the connection between the song and the character and/or the stage.

Now that we have a couple rounds of the Testpunch under our belts, is anyone warming up to characters that weren't really on their radar before?
Ribbon Girl is a blast. I keep playing her because her air-game and dive-kick is so good, but her style and charm has really grown on me as well.
Here are some gratuitous butt shots I took in handheld mode (actually intended as shots of her shoes, but whatevs):

Helix's theme makes DNA Lab one of my favorite stages to play. Spring Man's theme in Spring Stadium also gets me pumped. Both are stuck in my head after Round 4 of the Testpunch!

The more I play test-punch, the more I find myself liking Mechanica. I mean, I already liked her but she's starting to overshadow Min min for me 
black alt ribbon girl is amazing, might be my favorite design now
I'm struggling so hard to pick the color. I dunno why they made it so obtuse to change colors, unless I'm completely doing it wrong.
you just click the left stick in while pushing it in one of the four main directions and then press a
each direction corresponds with a specific alt with up (I think) being the main costume

Minmin is still my favourite but I've warmed up to Ribbon Girl a lot more after playing the Testpunch.

I feel like you should ask again, but take Twintelle out because she's the most logical answer. I mean: she's thicc, but she's also appealing to my love for oujo-sama type characters, plus...c'mon. She stops time. She's clearly a JoJo character that wandered into the Nintendo world, lol.
So after her, I'm actually a big fan of Byte and Barq. That's a cute design. Then Ribbon Girl and Min Min tie for 3rd.

Min Min really is a visually appealing character. I love her color scheme (both default and all three variants). Also love the texture on the noodle hair/arms, dragon scales, and clothes. And those SHOES!Here's a nice uncompressed Min Min capture.

holy shit this alt is actually clean
Now that ARMS has been out for a couple weeks, what is your favorite character?
I've definitely gone back to Ribbon Girl. Barely touched Byte & Barq despite voting for them in the polls.
Ribbon Girl was the character that caught my eye of the original five, so it's fitting she's the one whose gameplay and design I've come to like best (at this early stage in the game, at least).
It's a joy to fight with and against all of these characters, though. Not a weak design in the lot. All of them have wonderful designs. Looking forward to Max Brass next!

I still like MinMin but I feel like I'm going to end up playing Mechanica, who's grown on me both in design and play. I guess the abundant amount of Ramen girls also kind of makes me feel that by going the Mechanica route I'm adding a little bit of variety to the matches :3
