I'm also happy to see Crocodile Liu make a male character to go along with their girls. That's very cool. Now if we could convince bluejaunte to make a male that would be really rad.

Don't wanna derail the thread, I'm enjoying the renders people are posting here (thx everyone!). Just wanna drop skins of bluejaunte characters look very good on Male characters as well. I have built my custom made character with the skin of a bluejaunte character and it works well. I posted some images across the board, one is here ...

Thank you so much for your experiment with these characters, @FenixPhoenix. I didn't get Kanade because I preferred the very stylized look of Sakura, so I guess I'll hold off until a closer G8M mate arrives.

Unfortunately, I do not know if Sakura's counterpart will ever be made. I remember that when it came out, some of us tried to do a male version that would look good with her. I did some character presets and shared them here that might work, though it will require some transfers through generations for them to work.

Ok, so it wasn't as easy as I thought lol. There was simply no way I could make him work with Sakura, because her morph is just TOO different. However, if you dial in some of Sakura + Kanade so that she isn't as extreme, and you alter Yuzuru enough (the free anime head morph + cartoonized did a great job) you can make them work together. Here's an example of what they would look like side by side. I'm also attaching the "recipe" (all the dial spinning) for this version of Yuzuru in case anyone finds it useful.

I was planning on doing a series of pictures expermenting with Yuzuru with each of the anime style girls (Aiko, Sakura, and Kanade) so the dial spin information is super helpful. I figured he'd look best with Kanade since they were made by the same artist to be counter parts.

F'real though, for all the kvetching I do, I will say that Genesis 8 is probably the strongest in terms of overall diversity when it comes to age, shapes, ethnicities, etc. Sure, some PAs have had to fill in the gaps, but overall, it's brought a lot to the table, Yuzuru included. 

I do have to chuckle, since I'm getting flashbacks to the early oughts and the whole bishonen craze. Everything old is new again~

That sounds like a fun experiment for sure. I'm thinking he would also look good with Aiko, perhaps simply switching his body and dialing in another head so he looks closer to Aiko's age. Perhaps mixing some of Yuzuru with Miguel for Diego 8 (who is already stylized) might provide an interesting counterpart for Aiko.

All I know is that it's been a while since I had fun playing with dial spinning characters, but Yuzuru has provided a needed inspiration. :)

Wow! LOVE him! I was really hoping we'd at least see ONE Anime/J-Pop boy this generation. :)

Anyone know where the clothing from the main Yuzuru promo image comes from? It looks like a Japanese boy's uniform, but I can't place if I've seen it in the store before... https://www.daz3d.com/yuzuru-8

You gotta up your game Daz. Make me want every item in that bundle, make that bundle look too tempting, make me feel like I just stole something when I check out a pro bundle.

What about Sasuke? He's G8F, but he self-identifies as male.

Yes, but then you need to use the cross-figure tool or the upcoming utility by Riversoft Arts to clothe him with male outfits.

I don't think you need to buy anything to get G8M clothing on G8F. G8F should be able to autofit G8M clothing.

Nah, the lines are different, as are enough details that it couldn't be a retexture. This looks like it may be something Crocodile Liu made for him that maybe hasn't released yet

Artini

Yuzuru 8 on his own - great character.

Yuzuru 8 - again, great character.

I have Sauske, but unfortunately I can't morph him using male morphs, so I haven't used him yet. Since I don't use Sakura out of the box, I would also want to change Sasuke into a more similar style. Hopefully if a cross-figure converter for morphs comes out, I will be able to use him.

Yuzuru 8 - one more time.

Another render of Yuzuru 8.

Its a good character but I dont really do anything much in that genre so I am going to have to pass on the bundle. However there was an outfit and a hair option that I liked so I grabbed those.  To everyone who worked on the character and bundle, I would like to congratulate you on some really good work.

Cybersox

This PC+ sale has been killing me this year with all the one day PC+ items, and I already have so much new product that it'll probably take years to actually use it all, but... It's so nice to FINALLY see a true male bi-shonen type as an official DAZ figure, that even while the items in the bundles seemed to lean heavily towards the goth/emo end of the spectrum and I was especially surprised that there wasn't a Japanese style male school uniform included, Yuzuru was an instant buy for me.  Of course, the fact that the Pro Bundle discounted down to $25.71 and came with $50 worth of DAZ Originals once I had all the various promos, discounts and purple bar offers added together made it a pretty easy decision. 

Patrick Tyner

I really like this Pro pack, I do think that only $50 of included freebies if you get more extras detracts from the impact of other more generous sales campaigns from the past. I am currently trying to figure how to swing it monetarily since the purple banner coupon ends tonight and I don't get paid until Tuesday....

EJWorks

I really like him. I was playing with him out of the box and with some render settings.

I hadn't considered that. Yuzuru looks cool, Artini. I still don't care for the David Bowie hips, but it's not so noticeable when fully clothed, and that's what morphs are for.

Yeah, if you have the base body morphs it's an easy adjustment - just dial the Hip Size morph. :)

DisparateDreamer

I'm so confused... do people think yuzuru's hips are too big ? or they are too small?

i thought they were too wide LOL

Serene Night

Someone asked earlier if the Windwalker hoodie could be altered. And it can to some extent. The laces can be hidden, as can the arm straps. The flap in front can't be hidden, it covers a open space. The ribbing in the front is on the texture, so you can't hide it unless you want to recolor it.
