I've been waiting on someone to start doing this (anime/manga stylings) with native KDE plasmoids. While I understand this is only a test and an inactive plasmoid to boot, there's potential here for some rather neat Rainmeter-esque native plasmoids that would decorate a desktop without the necessities of wine and Rainmeter.
Even without a plasmoid showing information, there are shimejis and other likewise things to consider. For an added example, see: the bkodama plasmoid. At the very least, I'm hopeful your post is a starting point for some other plasmoid interests. :)
Thanks for the test! I may work with this myself at some point.
bkodama is from ibuscher, just like benma! ;)
I don't know if it depends on the bigger dimension of this plasmoid, but while I can let bkodama live peacefully on my desktop, wandering, appearing and disappearing alla around without any significant loss in system performance, as i loaded benma my system began to CRAWL... I even had a difficult time in shutting benma down.
I'm on a Dell Mini 1012 (so not exactly a ultrapower machine) but such a persisten slowdown is unusual nevertheless.
Anyway keep up with these, I love them ;)

good job I edit the svg files (easy as you use layer) and I put the head of my wife :-) Thanks
I like it :) and my laptop seems capable of supporting it without slowing down. Nice plasmoid ;)

Yes, sadly the performance is the worst, and currently I am not sure how to improve it :(
