I have zero drawing experience as of three days ago, and so I decided to try to sketch Crim from Destiny Unchain Online every day until I get good at it. Day 1 and Day 2 are up top, both of which I did with references. Day 3 are the bottom two - bottom left was done without any references, bottom right I spent way too long on to get looking halfway okay. I'll probably go back and do another sketch with the twin french braids once I get a better handle on the basics, but it was a fun challenge for now.
On a side note, I don't think I've ever seen an anime/manga character with twin french braids before (which is part of why I wanted to try it). If anyone knows of one, please let me know.

I started to try coloring in manga panels recently, I'm pretty happy with how this turned out - this is like the fourth panel I've ever colored in.
Orignal panel is from Destiny Unchain Online Chapter 12.

read destiny unchain online
I've never used tumblr in any capacity before, but I feel like this is a good way to introduce myself to it - by simping for my favorite manga series as much as I possibly can.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, why read DUO? Because it's just that good. It's basically like Shangri-La Frontier, but if the MC wasn't a lone wolf.
The premise is simple: In the distant future, VR and AR have integrated their way into daily life, and VRMMOs have exploded in popularity. The main character, Mitsuki Kou, has grown up playing VRMMOs all of his life, and his dad works for a company that develops them. From no-lifing VR games for his entire childhood, Kou has basically become what you'd call a "god gamer", and so his dad uses him to playtest the VRMMOs he develops.
The story begins as Kou's dad finishes his magnum opus: Destiny Unchain Online. Kou is called in to playtest for the game. Normally, VRMMOs in this universe are played using a fancy choker (rather than the headsets you see in other series); however, Kou's dad developed a special device for Kou to play in just for him, called "The Cradle". Kou logs in, and after choosing to play as a half-vampire named "Crim" in character creation, he gets genderbent by the game. It's at this point that she freaks out and contacts her dad, who then hits her with the double whammy that because of so-called "technical issues", she'll be staying logged into the game for three months straight.
So, yeah. It's got VRMMO, vampires, and genderbending. A triple whammy, if you ask me. But, of course, the premise doesn't make the story. What else do I love about this manga then? (I'll stay vague in this post to give you all a chance to read it before I post more spoilery stuff...)
Character-wise, everyone is just brimming with personality. Volume 1 largely focuses on just Crim and some NPCs, but in Volume 2, most of the rest of the main cast is introduced, and the character writing really starts to shine with how they bounce off one another.
The VRMMO mechanics are also very well thought out - the author plays a ton of video games and MMOs, and so situations, references, and terminology are brought out from their personal experiences rather than just using VRMMO as a story gimmick they wanted to try writing.
The fights in particular are VERY well executed. The paneling gives a great sense of movement, and the group vs. group combat has a ton of tactical elements thrown in. Just, in general, everything is thought out absurdly well.
And art-wise, holy crap. Wow. This manga, for lack of a better word, is simply beautiful.
Double page spreads GALORE, and there's some crazy art in later chapters that make you think "How the hell is this released weekly?"
And finally, there's Crim. We stan Crim here. (there's another character we stan here too, but that's for another post). Crim is just a completely lovable dork with one of the best character designs I've ever seen.
10/10, best manga of all time. read destiny unchain online.
feel free to ask questions cause I know way too much about the lore, and follow for more crimposting about DUO
