Let's make the Anime Character : chapter 2-1 -Parts theory, Anime picture is set of sign- by Clown Jack

Last time[link], she was shown.

This time, she is cut with my samurai sword!!!  I can really play kendo!!!
"Chestooooooooooooooooooooooo !!"

Don't mistake. 
This is not my taste. Please see a lower picture.

The best method of understanding things is analysis and construction. Bishojo anime character understanding is also the same. Please observe the picture which became a fragment. then, you will notice that a picture is drawn with the combination of a circle, a triangle. and a square.
It is this theme.
Parts is a symbol. Anime picture is closer to the concept of a Kanji and a mark, than a photograph. Originally, The mainstream of how to draw a picture is the realism technique. but, Anime is different. Recognition that anime picture is constituted by the sign. This recognition is a method which understands anime.
Look.
Photograph and sign picture.

ASCll Art is popular in Japan. This situation shows that Japanese people a in the culture which
reads a picture as a sign. This is considered to be the influence of a kanji[Chinese character] which came from china. Kanji is a phonofram. A phonogram has a meaning with the combination of a sign.

A picture is analyzed to a sign. This is foundations. but, this is not special technology at all. The culture exists all over the world. Religion pictures, abstract art, the Russia constructivism, etc. will be raised. LEGO and an avatar in internet are one of those which everyone knows.

"A picture is a sign," The European considered.
My theory is subject to the influence of a montage theory, and the Russia constructivism and scientism.

In this method, people's face is made by placing a simple sign. This theory is symbolizing man,  animal, etc. and combining it, and gives a meaning to a picture.

However, There is no meaning in a circle or the triangle itself. Don't have misunderstanding. It must not be afflicted by symbolism.
This is not art but a design. It's a Structure. It is similar to the design of a car, or the design of building.
This design has purpose which raises efficiency of the expression. However, The greatest effect is changing picture to language. So to speak, The sign is the alphabet in an anime picture. We are reading an anime picture rather than look at an anime picture.
