Description Yes, Taki got 2cm taller. I decided she just wasn't tall enough to really be fit the "Huge Schoolgirl" trope just yet. (No, Kokoro didn't get any bigger to compensate.)

Interestingly enough, Taki wasn't originally supposed to be a nickname, but it was brought to my attention that the pun I wanted to do with her name wouldn't work kanji wise unless I changed it. Luckily, it works now.

This whole exercise has been kind of inspiring (like, for example, I totally think Taki hates her full name, and has a dog now). But especially I liked coming up with ways to make the same uniform look different depending on each character. The length of the skirt and the sorts of modifications that went into each one went a long way in making them all a little unique.

In Japanese her name can be loosely read as "Small forest, tall tree".

Okay, so like, I actually had the bright idea of googling a BMI calculator to get a more believable weights.

She looks really nice, though the weight can't be right, if she would be that tall she would weigh at least 60 or else she's anorexic, which she doesn't look like

Anyway she looks good. I like you're colouring!

In America, people tend to be taller, (actually, she's shorter than me)
but that is really tall for japan.

She is really very cute, you know? And I was going to say she's not all that tall, but I guess, y'know, Japan. Plus my perspective may be skewed because my sister and I are both tall.

Despite being the tallest girl in Japan, Taki is the most "normal" character out of Kokoro's Daily Life. She reminds me of Asuka from Evangelion though.

I wouldn't necessarily call her huge even at that though. 5'8" isn't really that tall for a girl.

It's taller than her nation's average height for fully grown adult women by six inches.
