Isn't it perfect.

So perfect that I think the character designers of the movie may in fact be Sanderson fans.

After I just read rge  thread aboutut the girl who looked up and seeing the images I posted it makes perfect sense that the shin would have larg  eyes because they originally came from were its always dark with  no light at all you would have to have large  eyes to try incapture all the light possible

That is funny I've never read the comic or seen anime battle Angel so I can't say this design pre dates the cosmere

Unfortunately, not accurate at all. Shin don't have unnaturally large eyes, they simply do not have the epicanthic fold like Alethi and many other races on Roshar thus the Alethi think Shin eyes are unnaturally round. It's a lot more subtle than OMG GIGANTIC EYES!

@bdoble97@Kered I feel like I should tag you guys to make sure you see this. 

EDIT: Whoops, you beat me to it.

My mental image of what a Shin looks like will be logic defying, then.

Brandon Sanderson says that your headcanon is the correct canon for the individual reader so.
