I'll probably be avoiding the fandom for a good week or two after the initial redesigns are released. I can only imagine furious rage at every single detail.
"Why is Brendan's hair black!?"
"How could they make Brendan's hair white?"
"They ruined Brendan's hair!"
"His new hat is stupid.."
"They replaced Brendan!"
"*people confusing Ruby and Brendan*"
"They look ugly"
"They ruined May forever"
"Wally looks awful"
"0/10 redesigns"

I remember the HGSS debacle foundly and that was for characters not cared about much. Imagine the reaction to May and Brendan..
