Description

Something I had been wanting to draw for awhile. As some of my watchers may know, the lines were drawn up last year but life and tech fell apart preventing it from being completed till now. Both Endrance and Infinite were voiced by Liam O Brien in English. Over 14 hours of work were put into digitizing this piece.

"The fact they look related is a crazy coincidence-" - Comment received on Insta.

Yeah! That had my mind spinning for some time. Both characters are very similar in many ways but while Infinite was poorly written, Endrance was written quite well and his character continued through 7, now 8(Last Recode port with additional chapter), games plus however many episodes of anime he showed up in. As Infinite was formerly known as Zero, Endrance was formerly known as Elk in the first 4 games. Only in GU is he known as Endrance and voiced by Liam O Brien. Character development is incredible and by knowing Elk/Endrance, the poor writing for Infinite didn't send me reeling as it did for most as he story and personality seem to mirror(albeit poorly and shorted to a sore lack of understanding and development) both Elk/Endrance and Haseo from the Dot Hack GU series.

If you want know about Endrance more, I suggest trying the Dot Hack and GU games. Trying to get the Dot Hack series (especially the originals) is like trying to obtain Panzer Dragoon so beware. The series isn't for everyone though and I will say the game play hasn't aged well. Story and music is still amazing though.

In many ways, I'm surprised I recognized the voice as it had been years since I heard it. Put this little clip together to show a tiny handful of their similarities and a bit of difference in how they were written. Doesn't do Dot Hack it's due justice...
