Subject: I don't think it would work on anime characters, actually.

Different cultural background. Or does the shave-and-a-haircut knocking pattern go back a long way in Japan? (Even if it does, I think it would probably still have to appear a lot in older anime to have any effect.)
Just a little snippet set after the Gorillaz exorcism. Contains some bad language, but not much objectionable. http://chelonianmobile.livejournal.com/112430.html
seriously cool. She ATE an Uruk Hai? Sweet! I loved the Two Bits thing. That was a good movie. I loved the line about it only being rabbit blood.
She is, after all, probably under three feet high. (She missed a few too many meals in her early years with the Juskarath, and it's mentioned in canon that her dad is quite short for a Mossflower ferret.) Most of it just got smeared.
Very nice, I like the interactions between the characters, especially Murdoc, including him knowing a bit about the PPC, since the Gorillazverse doesn't have much of a Fourth Wall, does it?
And that "Shave and a Haircut" bit at the end had me in a giggling fit. Nice touch.
It's in, of all fandoms, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" - which actually has a surprising number of Sues inflicted on the weasels, for reasons I can't fathom. This isn't one of them, however, it's a standard-ish "human Marty Stu gets sucked into cartoon world and does unspeakable things with Jessica while Roger conveniently vanishes into thin air.

Supremely un-worksafe. Contains the wonderful line "Cartoons don't have virginity."
After reading that, I am torn between feelings of rage, disgust, and horror.
... given that their purpose in life is to make people laugh, and the line "Cartoons don't have virginity" left me laughing like a dying weasel.
Speaking of which, I think I need to find some point in my fics for someone to claim Stormsong's so serious because weasels are prone to dying from excessive laughter :)
You had me giggling like an idiot through the whole thing. Both Molly and 2D were completely adorable and darn it you just unleashed an entire warren of artbunnies into my brain.
Hm... Murdoc seems to be developing a thing for mustelids, doesn't he?
Could be worse. Tank Girl, created by the same artist, is cohabiting with a kangaroo and cheated on him with her tank. Yes, an actual vehicle. From which union she produced a child. Jamie's work is weird like that.
I maintain that the ol' shave-and-a-haircut trick would work on them. Maybe we should test it on some anime-based characters?
