Pastel Usul: Another nice Pastel Neopet! Sure, I've seen comments saying this is a knockoff Eventide, but I don't think that's a bad thing if you're looking for a similar color scheme but not as thematic as Eventide is. Instead of your Usul becoming a portrait of a blue cloudy sky transitioning to the reds & oranges of the evening into a night sky with starry dots, this is just the blue sky and warm sunset colors without all the extra details. Nicely done.
Beautiful Bride Usuki: Really? Of all the Usuki you could have picked? "Well which one would you have picked"? Well the main problem with that question is that I don't think I would have just picked one. With how many Usuki there are, it feels like if you do a Usuki one you do at least one other. If I had to just pick one, it comes down to two: "Traditional Welsh" or "Rock n Roll". Rock n Roll is the safe pick, a fun looking set which I think can be made gender neutral. Traditional Welsh though I think is the more interesting pick, a subtle reference to Neopet's original creators.
"What's wrong with Beautiful Bride"? Well, I feel a wedding dress wearable is sort of something all Neopet species should be able to wear, why just the Usul? Also, it's pretty much female only, if you have a male Usul than tough luck. Because that is something to keep in mind with Usuki, they're supposed to be analogs to Barbie dolls so a few are either one gender or the other, leaning on female. There's also quite a few which are a male/female pair, like the Prom Date ones. Now there's no "Gorgeous Groom" Usuki, though if you want a male specific Usuki could have gone with somthing like Pop Star.
