Yo, I've been following/lurking in this and based on the third sample picture in the OP I am having a hard time deciding if this would qualify as what you'd consider "anime" or not. So before I spend hours fleshing out the character concept I'd like an opinion on that. But the no-time-to-explain, elevator pitch version is that she's a cyborg that used to serve as a bodyguard for public figures, but was captured and de-programmed, effectively rescued by activists. She has a "handful" of hidden weapons.

If she doesn't fit the setting, I'll probably do a surface dweller instead.

Yes I do believe this qualifies as anime. I think Odd would prefer more drawn out facial features so we actually know what the face looks like. That being said, I could totally see the bodyguard for officials being a thing however maybe instead of body integral weapons youre just programed to be good at using weapons? also... instead of being rescued by resistance or whatever that case may be. Maybe you just gained consciousness and decided to leave? (Because you knew as well as them, they couldnt stop you) yknow?
