What was your first thought when you saw Reala's official artwork? And where did you first see him? My first thought was 'that is one SCARY clown' and I saw him on Google. I then tried to draw him and failed. :lol:

It was either the manual or when you face him at the end of Stick Canyon. He looked to be a freaky cool arch nemesis for NiGHTS, a la Metal Sonic n such. And when you fought him you got the kickass music, plus him coming off his throne, attacking you as a fellow 1st level Nightmaren. Totally epic win

I first saw him when searching for info about the game. I though he looked cool and kick-ass.

o.o Well.... was Poly C: who puts me into NiGHTS and I can´t remember where I saw her from first time (I suposse she shows me him, can´t remember) Was a little later of November 2004 and... I though I love him, I´m usually atracted by villains and red is my favourite color, so got points to like me XD.

In JoD, I like him more but I was a bit traumaticed because I don´t like the mask, it seems from a carnival" x_o.

My first reaction was 13 years ago when I got NiGHTS and my SegaSaturn for my birthday, if I can remember that far. I think it was "Aw CRAP I'm gonna DIE!" when I fought him. Then it was only afterwards I checked the manual (my philosophy was play first, read later) and I saw his picture and I was like "... hot damn he looks mean, and kinda cute in that evil sorta way."

I thought "Whoa. What up with the diamonds on his chest?" And took immediately to poking the game manual over and over in his chest until it was late at night and I began to hallucinate about beans. Hmm.

Actually, when I little and playing the game, I kept angsting because I could see him in the manual, but I could beat Stick Canyon. XD But, for the longest time, I held that he was a girl because his name ended with an 'a.' But, I've always liked him. Not as zealously as I do now, of course, but I never had too bad of an impression of him.

Well, I don't think I can remember my exact thoughts, but the moment I saw him I thought something along the lines of 'PUUURRREEEE EEEEVIIIIIILLLLLLL! D< '. Then I read a little more, and my mind has wandered so deeply down the path of the thought 'they're brothers... o.o ' that he's not evil to me anymore. Angsty, unsociable, and overly loyal to Wizeman, but not evil. Yes, once I start feeling the least bit sorry for a character that's supposed to be evil, I take their personality and twist it just a little further than I possibly can. ^^;

When I first saw his picture, I think the first thought that popped into my head was, "Wow, he's got... very masculine anatomy. That's kinda sexy. Wait a minute, he's a dream demon..." And so began my weirdo lusting for Reala, but I suppose that's normal around here. I actually find his character very fascinating now that I've read all about the games and actually PLAYED JoD. I'm sure I annoy my friends though because I'm always talking about how f*!*ing cool he is.

I do that too, much to the dismay of my friends. None of them know who the hell Reala is. They're going "Who is Reala? And why is he sexy?"

First saw Reala in the instruction manual for NiD and wondered what role he played in the game. Got to fight him, was impressed that he was the only boss to have a cutscene before the fight and had a line of speech to which began much speculation as to what he could be saying.

I was a fan for a short while, mainly because he was another 'jester-shaped' character who had a different colour scheme. I think that was the only reason i liked him. By the time i found the fanbase online, everyone and their grandmother had a fanmaren character and they all had different colour scheme's so Reala began to look pretty bog-standard in my eyes by that point.

He's ok, i guess. I prefer NiGHTS though. :P

When I first saw him back in the day I loved his colour scheme and make-up, but god damn did I hate his muscles.
I've kind of come to at least tolerate them now, since they set him apart from NiGHTS slightly.

Hmm... i think my very first thought was:

"Wow... um... aren't her muscles kinda... too big???"

...*sigh* yes... I'm ashamed to say that the very first time i saw him... i thought he was a girl... the eyes and lips gave me that impression...
Oh, come on! i was younger and stupider! Bah...
Thankfully, the impression didn't last very long at all... i was reading a description of him when that thought first occurred. so yea, that helped...

For the record, my second thought was:

"He looks an awful lot like that purple guy..." followed by, "He reminds me of licorice candy..."

Y'know, it was so long ago I don't remember. I imagine my reaction was along the lines of "WTF", though. At that point I hadn't been exposed to a wide variety of crazy character designs, so he (and the rest of the NiGHTS cast) looked pretty odd to me.

'course, now that I'm into illustration and cartooning, I love his design.

Well most likely at the official picture I was thinking at the time "huh, he doesn't look much like a girl with those muscles like in that other picture."
I think though when I first actually saw Reala, it was in a doujinshi and I thought he was a girl 'cause of the lipstick. Kinda thought she was his evil sister or something. Though the very first thought was "this one looks like that other clown". I liked their designs though I thought it looked cool.
I thought NiGHTS was a girl in the doujinshi too cause she acted girly. Eventually I was left confused and didn't know what to think 'cause they fried my little brain.

Funny story, really. >>

When I first /really/ got into NiD(via SA: B2), I found a tiny, obscure website with aaaaallll the wrong info. This site(i think it was a forum) made me think this:

Claris' name was Reala.
She transformed into NiGHTS via collecting Blue Chips.


So, originally, I thought 'Reala' was Claris! D:

When I finally found the .Com and saw the /real/ Reala, I was like "Oh, sweet, he rawks.", pretty much. XD
