On the simtopolis forum for SC4, I have been having a dicussion about
neighborhood design in SC4 with a user named CorinaMarie.
Her avatar made me think "hey that looks like an anime character, I
wonder which one."
The first one I thought of was Lain from Serial Experiments Lain. I am
not really sure why, as that avatar only looks a tiny little bit like
Lain if she had glasses.
The second one I thought of was "Read or Die," though I have never
actually watched Read or Die. I looked up what the main girl looks
like, and I suppose CorinaMarie's avatar looks a little more like that
character, but just a little.
Here is a direct link to the thread
http://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/70902-new-neig hborhood-design/
You need a simtroplis account to actually post to that thread, but you
do not need one to just view it.

So far as I can tell, it's the stylized self-portrait of a Fillipino
blogger posting inspirational quotes for teenage girls.
The version of the image used in CorinaMarie's profile appears to be a
thumbnail from somewhere, so I doubt they have much of a direct connection.
This is all assumption, however, so if you're really curious I suggest
PMing her to ask.
In any case, I don't think it's an anime character.

This is the character from ROD that I was thinking of (the one in the
1st picture): http://blog.draggle.org/read-or-die-ova-review-9-0-10-0/.
In the simtroplis thread, I have already asked CorinaMarie and she has
no idea, it is just a picture she uses that is the one she could find
that most looks like her.
