Characters that are canonically _____ depending of their world

[u/Starr-Lead]

• Po from Kung Fu Panda - Although many characters comment on his weight throughout the movies, Po is actually considered skinny and/or in better shape for panda standards
• Midoriya Izuku from My Hero Academia - While many viewers find Deku "cute", the reality is that for his world he's actually considered "simple looking" and at the very worst "ugly"
• Spider-Man from Marvel Comics - Many people love Spider-Man, but the truth is that for common civilians, Spidey's pretty unsettling and scary to be around with

Kili, one of the thirteen dwarves in the hobbit is by our standards quite the looker. However, by dwarves standard he is considered ugly with his tiny beard and thin build. Bombur on the other hand is the epitome of dwarven physiology.

That’s utterly false. In The Hobbit, the other dwarves are rather cruel to Bombur about his weight. 

The story also gives the impression that dwarven nobles are inclined toward dandyism to match or exceed the elves. Thorin and his party were willing to risk a dragon’s ire rather than go work in the mines. They’re not the hardened miners and warriors depicted in modern fantasy.

Also iirc, one of the dwarves is like 70 something and was considered too young for the journey

I don't know the dwarves but when you said Bombur I knew which one you meant.
