Does Rune Venus age between MW & AW

[iwakura]

I noticed that Rune Venus Ojosama looks alot older in Alternative World than in Magnificant World 2.

Is this just a style thing, or does it indicate that a couple years have passed between MW2 and AW?

hmm i dunno, i think so, i guess its to show that makoto and the gang have been in el hazard for a while and hes on his quest to find ifurita :D

[suzaku]

that's just the art style used...

[tekblade]

yeah differ style :D

[Fatal Outlaw]

i dont think years has passed, probably months or just weeks

[tekblade]

i dunno, if u remember when makoto finally comes back to his world to pick up ifurita he looked a lot older, so it could be a few months but it must had taken years for mokoto to pick her up :D

I was kind of taken aback when I saw Rune Venus in the opening episode of Alternative World; the light made her look older, and the new drawing style didn't help.

However, I still think she's the best-looking female in El Hazard, just ahead of Ifurita. Later on, when Qawoor was at her ceremony, Rune Venus looked as beautiful as she did in Magnificent World.

It's difficult to select "best looking" when all look pretty good. Can't argue with your selection.

Just as a minor thought. I was never really happy about how Rune's character was developed in the MW-AW timeline. I mean she's the princess and she's more of a secondary character than a central one.

Not that I'm saying she needs to be chasing after Makoto or anything, but her character just doesn't get developed too much. Anyway just a though.

Could someone post pictures on what the difference is? I never saw AW...
