Well it has a different pose, and originally her face was too long, but now is more similar. Of course artists sometimes draw characters slightly differently, depending on the pose of the face/body. Don't know what to do about that except using the old image but wanted a bit more variety

I understand but I'm not adding even more romances to the already super-huge romance chart now, sorry

I'll chalk Myrth's lower popularity as a romance interest to two factors, the most important being her continual whining/fainting. The second being her lack of curves in relation to the other possibilities, most notably Loren. Showing all that skin didn't make Myrth more attractive, it just sort of cheapened her.
I for one would like Myrth better if I could romance her with Elenor. In all seriousness that could be a big contributing factor to her popularity, or lack of it.
Fair point! Yuri fans clearly are a very large proportion of the author's customer base. I'd be willing to trade you Myrth for Karen however.

So her portrait has been adjusted since you posted that big romance chart?

I played Elenor just so I could romance Karen, and while I was at it, disocvered just how different G-G Chambara was...
a side by side comparison. Different? yes, but is also different the pose and the default expression. One is 3/4 to the viewer, the new one looks the viewer in front. Considering all the insane problems I'm having right now with the colorist, is a miracle that I got some art done for that game... For a moment I thought was at risk finishing the ART by 2014, not the game itself!

I played Saren primarily to romance Myrth, and did enjoy it. I'll do so for the sequel as well, just offering my opinion on why the favorites might be skewed.

In this comparison it doesn't look worse. A little different, yes, but not worse. The expression on the new face seems a little more innocent, which is not what I'd picture for Chambara, but I assume you'll swap out the lips to change facial expressions just as was done in the original.
I agree that Saren looks again some kind of Las Vegas mage-stripper. To avoid this kind of problems is very easy: just place the words "fantasy art" + mages (or witches, sorcerer-sorceress, warrior, etc.) on "Google Images" and you get a lot of great images to get inspired (with a lot of clothes, less clothes, all kind of customes, etc.)
Just a note: There's a lot of difference between to be dressed sexy and to be a stripper. Lara Croft has a bit of clothes but she only shows the legs (and she has a lot of curves of course). I still remember Lara wearing that way inside the caves on the high snowed mountains on "Tomb Raider Anniversary". But I don't remember people complaining about it because was unrealistic LOL (of course it was really unrealistic!).
Edited: About Google Images, place the words in singular better (mage, warrior, sorcerer, etc.) ("fantasy art" + word, include the quotes on the search on this form)
Just to reassure a group of people worried about the sexyness, here's Breza normal/sexy version:
I think that the right sexy version is perfect - making her even more naked would get into the ridiculous area. As it is, I think is pretty sexy even the left version, which is the one I'll take screenshots when submitting to review sites, Steam, etc. Then, IF the reviewers change the option to show the sexy version well, their fault!!! it's not like I'm forcing them to play in the sexy mode, and this time the normal mode is perfectly "normal", more on the cute side than sexy IMHO
In all seriousness that could be a big contributing factor to her popularity, or lack of it.
