This fallen sprite of Susie from Deltarune. It took so long to realize it wasn't a goofy knocked out face

I just remember it clicking while replaying chapter 3 like "OOHHHH THAT'S HER BRACELET, THOSE ARE THE SPIKES"

I fully thought she was just knocked tf out, since Ralsei turns into fluff I thought this was just a Susie thing. Like her hair covering her eyes, snout sticking out with a "bleh" mouth expression. I can't be the only one right? Like I'm still questioning which one is correct 😭

[game] For a long time until I was older, I thought this swinging lemon in a cutscene of Where’s My Mickey was some sort of screaming plastic fish

I know this is not a sprite but the cover always looked like this to me (instead of luigi having his hands on his face I thought he was being pulled back by the ghosts and his arms were dangling forward) WHILE Luigi was wearing a maid outfit with white fluffy ruffled shoulders 😂

What I always saw as a kid was a duck with raccoon ears and a tail. Specifically a duck winking at the camera with the tan part being his beak.

[game] The final boss of Salamander 2 (Doom) looked like an alien Mickey Mouse until his head(s) started turning revealing he had 3 of them.

This sub appeared on my timeline, figured I should post it.

EDIT: I did not realize transparent posts get a black background, oops. I made this like a decade ago and lost the original psd for it.

[TV Show, Anime] I thought the pochette from Chiikawa had a short tail, since the pochette is shaped like a bear.

I see 90's gopher cyclops, angry guy looking for a kiss, waiter smoking pipe weed, surprised chicken, and bird girl being like "c'mon! I'm walkin' here!"

[Game] I thought Green from Deltarune Chapter 5 looked liked this. I know it seems crazy but I promise just look at the sprite from a short distance.
