Questions about Anime

[kedar]

Hello Everyone,
My name is Kedar Reddy and I am a new member here. I am an Anime fan and I really like the art form. I have some questions to ask about Anime if don't mind. In some of the Anime or Manga that I watched, some female characters have a jewel or some sacred powder(mark) on their forehead, can you tell what the artist is trying to convey about the character by putting the sacred dot on their forehead(for example in Ah my goddess)? Recently I also read some Anime books which had Indian names as their title, such as Rig veda and The Avatar. One final question: can we use the art of Anime or Manga to create an Indian character (as in Asian Indian)? I will really appreciate your help.

First off... HI!! ^_^ I'm kinda new to this forum too but I've been a huge anime fan for years. Okay, In anime like ah my goddess, they have marks or "jewels" because they arn't human (most of the time anyway). For instance in ah my goddess, Bell dandy, Skuld etc are Goddess's, do you see? Also... sometimes it's just a mark or can be seen as a tattoo (Kai, beyblade). As to the creating an anime character of Indian/asian nature, I'm sure it's been done but if you can draw, go right ahead and create your own ^_^

I hope i've been of some help to you.
