The results you can get from the randomizer are actually quite hilarious.

Only minor nitpick I have is that I couldn't set her... what's the English word for it?... comb divide(?) on the top of her head instead of off on the side.

"Part" is the English word you're looking for. Smile

Great. Thanks.

I'm familiar with the Norwegian word for it, "skill" -- which more or less translates as "divide" -- and its location is included in the term, more often than not. "Sideskill" or "midtskill" (side parting and middle parting respectively.) But "divide" didn't sound entirely right to me, so I had to ask. ^^;;

Glad I could help!

"Part" in this context works pretty much the same way - "side part" or "middle part." It basically does function as a synonym for "divide;" it's just an old-fashioned usage of the word that we've stuck with. Smile (You're much more likely to see it in context of "Moses parted the Red Sea" or other big gestures, at least in my experience.)

There were like dozens of these, wonder why only a few were included.

And now I'm getting mental images of Moses working at a beauty salon doing women's hair styles with nothing but his staff and big, flourishing hand gestures.

^ This is all the more fitting since one of the seiyuu featured in the article voices Moses.

Specifically, Megumi Ogata in Fate/Prototype (x)

I did not quite understand the logic of this application. What determines these images as "strong"? If we are talking about some kind of archetype, then these images are unlikely to be shown it.
