For those too young to know: Zoe is Arale from "Dr.Slump&Arale-Chan"

Just a little trivia, because I'm assuming most people here are way too young to know Dr. Slump & Arale-chan.

Dr. Slump & Arale-chan is a manga by Akira Toriyama, which I'm sure people here will know for the Dragon Ball series.

It's about a doctor who builds an invincible robot with the shape and apparent behaviour of a bubbly, cheerful, hyperactive little girl.

Zoe is Arale - it's not just a resemblance. She is Arale, made in the style of League Of Legends. Much like Arale, she's invincible, if you attack her she just thinks you want to play, and she doesn't seem aware of the damage her "games" cause.

As I was quite a fan of Arale as a kid, I must say seeing a perfect lookalike of her in this game made me smile. It's nostalgic. And I never imagined that one day I could actually play as Arale!

So.... just wanted to let you youn' ones know this!

That's a very ,very weak comparison in design. Arale is also not an original character, there have been plenty of instances in lore of good natured children with God-like powers completely unaware of their power that predate the Dragonball franchise.

She does seem to have the same personality, you're right, the rest is totally different though, so it's probably a case of Arale being one of the inspirations that Riot took to build Zoe's personality. Saying that Zoe is Arale with LoL style might be a big stretch
