So I've read a lot of fanfiction and looked at a lot of fan art of young Tom Riddle, and I couldn't help but feel like he reminded me of quite a few characters I've run into. I kept on looking at him and thinking "Wow he reminds of of so and so" or "I can see why they thought that about...". Quite frankly I thought that young Tom Riddle was like Artemis Fowl or Ciel Phantomhive. I'm sure that others can think of many other good examples but looking at the picture of him sitting in the chair beside young Harry (Tom is on the right)greatly reminded me of Ciel Phantomhive who is often drawn sitting in a chair and is pinning you with a "I blame you for it all" stare. The other picture is of him playing the violin and, at first mistakening him for maybe Lelouch from Code Geass, I thought he reminded me of Artemis Fowl who, although never played an instrument, always had that "I am and always will be better than you" look on his face. It's funny because I have thought that young Voldemort would have been a little more unique, but then again maybe not. The picture might be a little too small to see by just the caption, so here are the links to the two pictures.

And if anyone else is noticing the trend, yes it's true that all the pictures I EVER use are from Zerochan because I think it had the best fanart, especially for Harry Potter!
