the consistency in anime beethoven designs (except for classi9) never fails to astonish me

like

if you tried and compiled anime versions of mozart, the second most Popular Classical Music Guy, it'd look like this

you could probably find a theme there if you really wanted to, but the personality, colors, design, etc are generally all over the place

but when you compile beethoven designs together they look like

this

it's insane how consistently Beethoven these are, like you could show these to your grandma and she'd have no choice but to reluctantly admit that these anime boys and girls are, in fact, all renowned German composer Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770-1827)

I guess he just cooked that hard with his own character design

< This is the ideal historical figure to moe-ify. You may not like it, but this is what peak character design looks like.

A runaway trolley is heading down the tracks toward five anime versions of Beethoven. You are standing next to a lever that can divert the trolley onto a different track that only has the Classicaloid version of Beethoven on it. If you divert the trolley onto the other track, this one Beethoven will die, but the other five Beethovens will be saved.

You are also Schubert from Classicaloid.

Do you let the trolley run its course, hoping this near-death experience will lead to Classicaloid Beethoven rethinking his life and the way he treated you, or do you pull the lever, save the 5 Beethovens and see if Sidstory Beethoven and Schubert are looking for a third-but-really-not-third?

5. Gakusei Shoujo
