I'm not really a shipper, but that leaves me freedom for enjoying everyone's take/artwork on any ship. That said, I've actually never heard of LawBepo before seeing your stuff?? It's actually quite adorable? At least, what I see since it's only your stuff I see lol either way, I wanted to ask WHY Bepo? Like what drew you too the ship I guess?

Always curious how people get to ships they like haha. That and every time I practice Bepo I think of your Bepo so I figured I'd ask finally while I think of your art 😂 hope you don't mind.

Which that thing said, I need to throw in I'm positively alive for your art btw. It's so crisp and I love for the sketchy/black and white. Thank you for gracing my eyes with it.

thank you for the message!

(you never seen it because except for like a couple of artworks noone really done it at the scale that i have. at least not in the western part of the fandom)

what drew me to the ship is the hug on zou but back when i first got into op 8+ years ago but i wasnt open minded enough to take it seriously - it didnt spark ideas to make stuff in me back then yet - but i did love the hug A LOT

its adorable. its just the cutest ever and the single most affectionate that we see law. you cant argue with that if i try. idc how people interpret his other scenes, zou hug is the most obviously and openly shameless display of affection towards someone we see with law

look at this fucker smiling hes so content rubbing cheeks with his 22 year old male best friend

i came back FOR bepo because i heard of [manga spoilers] i saw it and thought yoo shit hype started looking things up and saw the STOP ACTING CUTE scene and it was all over. one more canon reason for me to ship them (that is ofc if u consider anime filler canon since both the scene i mentioned were toei expanding and improving upon odas ideas) but i do consider them canon if it suits me lol

AND THEN I SAW FILM RED CRUMBS OH MY GOD. OH YOU TOOK HIM TO THE CONCERT UNBELIEVABLE YOU LOVE HIM SO MUCH

basically we were given a ton of cute fanservice of bepo being law's favorite most precious guy and i always ship my ships in accordance to canon its just the type of person that i am

you need to give me a crumb of canon and ill justify the rest. a hook is always necessary and these two got plenty

also reading the novel and seeing bepo be such a precious little brother to law....yeah...cute

oh we cant forget that i also went to look at things on pixiv and japanese fans are geniuses so i got so inspired by the characterization of law being a protective nose bleeding weirdo and bepo being oblivious to it....incredible dynamic i got absolutely hooked. bepo is cute and good and precious and he is home and comfort to law

to summarize: why bepo? because canonically bepo is the only person in bepo's position. he gets special treatment from law, he is THE crewmember of his. he is what killer is do kid - we know most about them they are the closest to the captain. its simple math

finally thank you im glad you enjoy my style!!!!

#lawbepo #always been just the lineart guy and the rest is secondary #either blocked out flats or the most minimal cell shading lol #im super happy b/w style works for everybody cuz it sure works for ME

YOUR PIGEON FIC

I AM INTRIGUED

TELL ME MOREEE

Haha, with pleasure! >:D (Thanks for asking, anon!✨)

Basically, through a series of events, Chuuya reaches a breaking point where he just…gives up. Dazai finds him, realizes the look in his eyes is far too similar to how Oda looked after losing the kids, and internally panics because he’s afraid Chuuya is going to end up dead as well.

…So Dazai, in a moment of brilliance (read: irrational desperation), decides to kidnap Chuuya.

More specifically, Dazai takes time off from the agency, then bundles Chuuya up and spirits him away to a dilapidated old house near the mountains (Dazai has some money squirreled away from his time in the mafia, but he can’t afford anything particularly fancy, so he has a lot of fixing up to do). Chuuya is in such a state that he just kinda lets Dazai do whatever, because he has lost the ability to give a shit (which of course only makes Dazai MORE worried).

But yeah, that’s most of the setup—most of the fic is going to be them settling into the house and Dazai having to learn how to do regular domestic things while simultaneously trying to coax Chuuya into joining him. Lots of Chuuya just getting time to heal and rest for once while doing peaceful things.

Of course, once Chuuya starts to improve, he starts talking about going back to Yokohama, so that’s the scene I just drew where Dazai convinces him to stay until the winter, because he can tell Chuuya is still very much not okay. (The fic starts in the spring).

And the rest…*arm-wiggles of mystery* will be revealed in the actual fic! (I do have the ending planned because I always write things out of order lol) Basically just a whole lotta domesticity and feelings — I’ve been getting vibes-inspiration from the house in My Neighbor Totoro and the one in Wolf Children.

Oh, and I almost forgot — the title of the fic is from “Skyline Pigeon” by Elton John, because the lyrics of that song really match Chuuya’s emotional arc in this :0 (also I just really like that song alskdjfj)

#the bird aspect of the fic will be more explained later lol #it will be both sad and happy. this is a warning #ask box #skyline pigeon fic #senhart's writing

i have heard vague spoilers so i know of Oda's unfortunate fate but I AM NOT READY

WTF THEY FUCKIN BLEW UP THE KIDS IM SORRY???? LIKE I KNEW HE WAS GONNA BE DRIVEN TO BREAK HIS PACT BUT NOT LIKE THIS!!!! also the sound design of that entire section was *chef's kiss* like i was nearly crying i was not okay

and the metaphor of oda giving up on writing his book ughhhhh i love how they addressed the idea of becoming a murderer being irreversible and changing your entire life, in a world so filled with bloodshed that can easily fall through the cracks. my heart was absolutely breaking when he gave up on that dream. THEY FUCKIN DROVE MY BOY TO THIS POINT I CAN'T I WILL KILL THEM I WILL MURDER EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM FOR HURTING HIM okay im fine i promise

dazai's speech about how everything good gets wrenched away from him was fuckin heartbreaking. especially given that i know that things obv don't work out between him and chuuya. god someone needs to give my boy a hug he is too tragic

OH ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS ARE SO TRAUMATISED AND SO COMPLEX AND SO 3D AND I LITERALLY WANT TO SQUEEZE ALL OF THEM AND HUG THEM AND

oh yeah also i have not given up on my vision of mello in the bsd universe currently i am thinking of having all three of the successors as a power trio who decide to take on the world (i.e. yeah the port mafia) together cause they can. but im kinda stuck on what their abilities should be. anyways that was a sidetrack

BUT YES I LITERALLY CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH EPISODE 4 but alas sleep beckons. i will probably be back here screaming once i watch it haha

When I watched most of your one piece videos and before I ever saw your real face I thought you'd be someone around your 30s or 40s. 😁

One reason was your voice and accent. I'm not that familiar with Australian accents except for OzzyMan (I'm ESL).

Another reason was your One Piece Women video. The way you talked about fanservice and women's body types was, not gonna lie, not sth young people in these times say that often because they've been infested by radfems and their rhetoric and espouse them constantly.

I saw the beginning of a video essay recently where the YouTuber straight up said that female characters who have been "sexualized" whatever definition he used there, don't count as good female characters at all and in any sense.

In other words, a female character who in some way shape or form appeals to men in a sexual way doesn't have any worth as a female character. Popular radical feminism on the internet.

When you started talking about the OP women without going into that direction I breathed a sigh of relief. You said that sexy character design for the women wasn't a big deal but that the lack of variety wasn't good.

And that was, at least where I was, the mainstream talking point in the early 10's about anime/cartoon characters. So, yeah, I thought you'd be older. 💕

Haha no I'm afraid I'm in my youthful mid 20s! That radfem rabbit hole was one I remember being in when I was 13-18 on Tumblr, but I avoid that kinda stuff like the plague now because radfem beliefs tend to be a dog whistle for terfs. And I'm saying this because if anyone reading this falls prey to the whole "women are biologically superior to men" rhetoric, I really need you to be careful, as that can and will nosedive into terf territory.

As for the sexualisation stuff, the whole "characters who have been "'sexualized" don't count as good female characters at all and in any sense" is ridiculous, because no matter what kind of female character you make, they will be sexualised in some way shape or form by men who find them attractive.

BUT honestly the biggest thing for me is like, this demonisation of sexuality and sexyness? Because, as a gay woman, I am also sexualising characters like Nami. Just because I'm not a man doesn't mean it's automatically redundant that I also find Nami extremely sexy and stare at her tits waiting for them to bounce. There's literally nothing wrong with Oda enjoying women, or enjoying tits or ass, he is allowed to make a female character that embodies his desires. But, as you said here, and as I said in my video, the problem is he's doing that with EVERY woman. I personally don't have any grudges for how Oda draws Nami and Robin, I just truly wish it wasn't every damn woman in One Piece lmao.

Honestly I'm in such a weird place with it because, again, I like women. I like looking at tits and I like looking at women. My unpopular opinion is I also find Nami's design very sexy and very pleasing because...I like tits too LMAO and I always feel like us gay women are forgotten about in the conversation of One Piece girls and their bodies. I'm not going to pretend I HATE the girl designs in One Piece because I really don't, but of course there is a difference when a man does it compared to when a woman does it.

My view on it will always be...the issue isn't men looking at fictional women in any kind of sexual way, it's that WOMEN are demonised when they do the same thing back for fictional men. If women draw fictional men being sexy, being objectified (although you can't objectify a fictional character really but you get what I mean), they seem to be swarmed by men who find that gross and detestable. But when men do the same thing back to fictional women... it's fine and natural?? So pointing at the one piece girls, saying it's too sexual and demonising it, is counter productive in my opinion.

As an individual, you are allowed to be uncomfortable with it, you are allowed to wish they looked different, but I don't think anyone has any right to say they SHOULDN'T look like that. Because that creates this air of "Well we can't put our own desires in fictional characters full stop!" and then this weird guilt is felt amongst all parties.

Equality to me is not taking away the bikini armour from a female character, it's allowing both the male AND female characters to be able to wear that bikini armour. Everyone is allowed to have their sexual desires and sexual preferences in fictional characters.

I love Nami, I love her big boobies, I JUST wish Zoro's tits bounced as much as hers did. That is all!

Hi hi! I'm a new follower, and I can't wait to binge read all of your works 💗 but I wanted to request one shot Kanetsugu angst and slight spice. Maybe he could be observing MC training with Keiji and unexpectedly get jealous 👀 angry kiss? Idk I'm just throwing it out there 🤣 xoxo!

Hi! Thank you for the follow and for the request! I apologize for taking so long to get to this one, but I really had fun with it. It ended up getting a bit long. I hope you and everyone else enjoys this as much as I did writing it!

KanetsuguxMC

Slightly spicy, but nothing too bad.

Foolish

I stood at the gates of Kasugayama Castle, waiting to greet our guest. “Awe, are you my welcoming party, Princess?”

I smiled at Keiji as he approached the gate. “Yeah, everyone else is busy, so I volunteered to be your tour guide for the day.” I said.

Keiji grinned as he threw an arm around my shoulders in that flamboyant friendly way of his. “Sounds good to me. Though I’m surprised Kanetsugu didn’t come with you.”

“He has a lot of work to do.” I replied, laughing at Keiji as I shoved him away. “He did say he was going to try and finish up early so he could join us for tea later.”

“Sounds like that ole sour puss.” Keiji said grinning. “Alright, show me a good time Princess!”

I laughed again and began to take Keiji through the halls of Kasugayama. “So, how’s everyone back in Azuchi?” I asked.

“Everything’s going pretty great.” Keiji answered. “If Lord Nobunaga hadn’t ordered it, Hideyoshi was gonna be here. He wanted to try to convince you to come back home.”

“I should probably write him more often. Let him know that I’m doing good and that Kanetsugu is taking VERY excellent care of me.” I replied, making that a mental note.

“He’d probably just assume you’re being forced.” Keiji replied. “He’ll be okay, though.”

“I hope so.” I replied.

We talked more as we walked around. When we arrived at the training hall, Keiji gave me a grin. “Hey, you been keeping up on your training?” He asked me. Sometime before I came to Echigo, I had begun spear training with Keiji and the new recruits back in Azuchi.

“Oh…well I don’t really get to practice that much.” I replied.

“Well, since I’m here why don’t we take the opportunity to brush up on your training then?” Keiji replied. “Be a fun way to pass the time.”

“Well…alright.” I agreed after a moment. “I just need to go change first.”

“I’ll wait here.” Keiji replied.

I went to mine and Kanetsugu’s room and changed into a light linen top and some “leggings” I had made for myself back when I was still in Azuchi. It was all specifically for training. Much easier to move in. I returned to the training room and Keiji and I both picked up some practice spears…which were just wooden staffs really.

“Alright, Princess, let’s see what you remember.” Keiji said, grinning at me.

Keiji and I started going through the stances. I was surprised by how automatically my body seemed to move. I guess muscle memory counts for something!

“Doing pretty good there!” Keiji encouraged me.

“I’m surprised by how much I remember.” I replied, grinning. “Let’s see what else I can remember!”

“Haha! That’s the spirit!”

Kanetsugu…

Kanetsugu managed to finish up his work for the day…incredibly early for him in fact. He knew Keiji was coming and spending time with the Oda princess. While Keiji was his friend… he couldn’t help but to feel a twinge of jealousy at the thought of his lover spending time so close to another man.

Kanetsugu took note of the time and headed to the room where the pair would likely be having tea…only to find that they weren’t there. One of the soldiers passing by. “Lord Kanetsugu, if you’re looking for the princess and Lord Keiji, they’re in the training hall.”

“What on earth are they doing there?” Kanetsugu asked.

“Spear training.” The soldier answered.

“Keiji is showing off as always.” Kanetsugu muttered as he began to head towards the training hall.

The soldier started following him. “Not just Lord Keiji. The princess is pretty capable, too.”

Kanetsugu stopped in his tracks. “What?”

“The princess is training with Lord Keiji.”

Kanetsugu blinked. He recalled his lover telling him that she’d previously trained with Keiji, but she hadn’t seemed interested in doing that again or at least not that she’d told him. He had assumed it was something that had been thrust upon her by the Oda.

“Lord Kanetsugu…”

Kanetsugu mentally shook himself. “I’m fine.” He replied and then started marching off towards the training room, his pace may or may not have picked up a bit.

As he got closer, Kanetsugu could hear Keiji’s boisterous voice. “Your form is great, Princess.” Keiji said. “You sure you haven’t been practicing?”

“I guess it’s muscle memory.” She replied.

Kanetsugu picked up his pace, a frown instantly creasing his brow at Keiji complimenting her form…and just how pleased she sounded. He slid open the door and stepped inside the training hall. He saw his lover and Keiji standing beside each other, going through some stances with practice spears.

His eyes couldn’t help but to notice the way his lover looked in a thin linen top and tight pants that were similar to the ones Keiji wore. Her hair was up in a bun, but strands were falling in places. Her skin was glistening with sweat from the exertion of the training, reminding him of how she looked after a passionate night in their shared bed.

He didn’t like that another man was seeing her looking like this. Though perhaps what bugged him even more was the happy grin she was wearing as she looked at Keiji.

“What are you two doing?” Kanetsugu asked, keeping his tone cool and level. He would make sure no one could see the storm that was brewing beneath the surface.

Both turned to him, the smile on the Princess’s face becoming even bigger as she looked at him. “Kanetsugu!” She said, her voice showing she was happy to see him.

Keiji was grinning his usual smile. “I figured there was no way a workaholic like you would be finished in time to spend any time with us.” Keiji replied. “So I decided to see if the princess had been keeping up on her training.”

“I see.” Kanetsugu replied.

“Well, now that you’re finished we can go have tea.” The princess said. “I’ll just need to washup and change first.”

“No that’s alright.” Kanetsugu said. He wasn’t sure what exactly it was…curiosity perhaps to see this side of his lover, but his next words surprised him. “I’d like to stay and observe your training. I know you mentioned it before, but I didn’t realize it was something you had taken so seriously.”

A lovely flush came to her cheeks and a bashful smile graced her lips. She had no idea what that look did to him…what thoughts it put in his head.

Before she could speak, Keiji was speaking up. “Sounds good to me. And yeah, the princess here was my best student!” He was then patting a hand on her back…a far too familiar hand for Kanetsugu’s taste.

“Well, continue with your training then.” Kanetsugu replied, moving to a spot where he could better observe. He leaned back against the wall, arms crossed over his chest in an effort to hold himself in place.

“Alright, you heard the man!” Keiji declared. “Let’s get back to it.”

The princess smiled at nodded. “Alright!” She declared in a voice that showed she was determined and ready to go…though that slight flush remained on her cheeks.

Kanetsugu watched as the two continued to go through the stances and exercises. The princess did indeed have a good form. He was surprised to see how well she wielded the practice spear. She moved as someone who had trained for quite sometime.

“Alright, let’s see if you can remember some of the more advanced stuff.” Keiji declared leading her into another exercise.

She did well once again. Though Kanetsugu did notice one stance she had a bit of trouble with. Keiji as her trainor noticed this as well. “That’s good, but ya gotta move your hands more like this.” Keiji said, showing her where her hands should be positioned by demonstrating himself.

She nodded and moved her hands. “Here?” She asked.

“No, here let me help you.” Keiji replied, setting his spear aside and then moving to stand behind the princess. “First relax into it a bit more…” He said, a hand coming to her back and adjusting her posture. “Spread your feet just a bit wider, but not much…”

As Kanetsugu watched this, he could feel the rage bubbling up inside of him. He didn’t care that this was for training purposes…another man was touching HIS lover…and right in front of him! He did his best to contain that rage.

“Alright now,” Keiji went on, his arms going around the princess and his hands resting on hers, “you’ll wanna move your hands here…” He was then sliding her hands along the staff into the proper position.

Kanetsugu couldn’t help but to notice just how close Keiji was to the princess. Keiji’s head was even lowered so that his face was right next to hers…and she still had that flush on her cheeks. Was she liking this? He couldn’t stand it a second longer.

“I think that’s enough.” Kanetsugu declared.

Both Keiji and the princess looked at him, shocked expressions on their faces at the sound of his clipped tone. Keiji was then grinned as he pulled back from the princess. “Got it.” He said, clearly understanding what was going on.

The princess looked at him, confused. “Kanetsugu…” She asked, slowly lowering the practice spear.

Keiji was quickly taking the spear from her as Kanetsugu came over and took her hand in his. “Come on.” Kanetsugu said, tugging on her hand to lead her from the room.

“But…” She began to protest.

“Don’t worry, I’ll clean up here, Princess.” Keiji declared.

“He’ll be fine. I’ll send someone to show him to his guest room later.” Kanetsugu told her.

“O…okay.” She replied and waved back to Keiji, who was just grinning at the two.

Kanetsugu led the princess out of the training hall and quickly pulled her into a deserted corridor. He moved quickly, pinning her against the wall and pressing his body to hers. “You foolish girl.” He muttered before claiming her lips in a hard kiss.

“Mmmnn!” She gasped into the kiss as she parted her lips for his quickly intruding tongue.

Kanetsugu firmly held her, his hands running over her body as he deepened the kiss. His lips parted from hers only to trail down the side of her neck…he couldn’t seem to control himself and his teeth were soon scraping her over her flesh, leaving marks. He wanted to mark her…to claim her.

“Kanet…sugu…” She gasped, her body responding of its own accord to his ministrations. He opened the collar of her shirt and allowed his lips and teeth to explore her collarbone and cleavage.

Kanetsugu pulled back, looking at her with a feverish need burning in his eyes. He could see her panting against the wall and his desire only seemed to grow. She was panting and sweating, her cheeks glowing and her eyes filled with desire and confusion, tears already seeming to glisten at the corners. Her clothes disheveled from his own work. He wanted more…and it was clear she would let him.

“Kanetsugu…?” She asked, her breathy voice filled with a mixture of confusion and desire and longing. “Wha…what’s…going on?”

Kanetsugu sighed as he leaned his head down, forehead coming to rest on her shoulder. “How else am I supposed to react to another man touching you?” He replied. “And even worse when you’re smiling and blushing at him…”

“Oh…” She gasped. She was then moving her hands to cup his face between them and forcing him to pull back and look at her. “So, you know Keiji is my friend and only my friend.” She began. “So yeah I was happy to see him and happy to work on training again…but the blushing…well that was…because YOU were watching.”

Kanetsugu blinked. “What…”

The princess now turned away, a bashful expression on her face. “Well, how else is a girl supposed to feel when the man she loves most in all the world is watching her? I didn’t want to embarrass myself in front of you…”

A gentle smile came to Kanetsugu’s face. He brought a hand to her chin, coaxing her gaze back to his. “We’re both fools.” He declared before capturing her lips once more.

She responded to the kiss, wrapping her arms around him. When they broke the kiss, she was smiling up at him. “I love you, Kanetsugu.”

“I love you, too.” He replied. He was then helping her to straighten her top back out. “Let’s get this fixed…I can’t have anyone else seeing you like this while we head back to our room.”

Her eyes widened. “It’s the middle of the day…”

“I don’t care. I can’t contain myself much longer…not after all of that.” He replied.

The princess smiled, her cheeks reddening but her eyes with desire. “Well…I’m not really sure I can wait either.”

Kanetsugu let out a groan. “When you say things like that…”

The pair worked to quickly straighten themselves out and were hurriedly making their way to their bedroom…where they wouldn’t leave until the next morning.

My quick first thoughts about chapter 1113

Stalemated by the coffee being too hot, brutal Oda, just brutal 🫣

Yeah, that's certainly why the chapter is titled that ☕

Love this gag about Franky's wanted poster continuing to pop up.

Huge Bird cranky that he must play hide and seek to find the real source of the broadcast. He's a grumpy old man who hates games and hates fun haha.

Ah, so the snail was a diversion, curious who set it up and when. And if they wanted to fool anyone in particular.

Bonus York being an extra cute scrunkly this chapter. Almost makes me forget there is Stussy or Robonosuke this chapter.

Final Showdown! (a.k.a Last of the Ikemen artbreeder series, the Ikesen guys - Pt. 2)

Yay, I'm not dead! Or I have just risen from the dead.

After nearly 2 months I've made the Ikesen guys too! Let me tell you, this was the hardest & longest one tbh. I had to make asian portraits only and there were 17 guys in total, so yeah, it took some time.

(It's also kind of funny how - unintentionally - I did my 3 main Ikemen games in a certain order; the way the suitors' number grow each time lol.)

I'm not sure if I'm as satisfied with this batch as I want to be, despite the time and effort, but all together they look nice! So let's get into it!

↓

Part 1 here, if you missed!

• Oda Nobunaga

(It was a big debate. He looked pretty good in several attempts, but he's again; one of the older guys, and to me he looked a bit too young in my other tries? This turned out to be the best in the end, he has a small smile at the corner of his mouth and his eyes are the sharpest in this one, like Haguro hunting for his next pray. His jet black hair was smooth, but his eyes are edited, obviously. Overall I think it's a pleasing sight, he looks devilishly handsome too haha!)

• Takeda Shingen

(He was one of the difficult ones. As I said with Keiji, there were several auburn attempts, slender eyes and manlier jaw. But he looked too young for Shingen. I tried mixing it with Kennyo's avatar, since I was done with him by then, and it kind of helped. I'm not sure about his face all together, maybe his eyes are too small? Or his mouth his weird, that he's not smiling perhaps? I don't really know, but I'm happy that I could achieve his thicker eyebrows - in his design they're specially highlighted and it adds to his many manly charms!)

• Kicho

(It was a difficult debate with myself, again. At some point I confused myself and wasn't sure about his features and expression. Also, somewhere along the editing he started looking European, so it got concerning for a second, but his eyes and face shape survived, which is a critical part in his design. In the end he came out Asian though (I hope)! I must admit, I put a little bit of purplish tint into his hair, because it was so similar to Nobunaga's, but other than this and his eyes, I didn't touch anything on his features! He's a bit more feminine, but he's also one of the 'painfully beautiful' characters and he's canonically a woman in history, so I think it's okay!)

• Mouri Motonari

(I was afraid of his character, because his design is really Latino in my opinion. Some kind of male lead in a Mexican soap opera haha. Especially because of the darker skin and white hair combo, I was concerned that the contrast would not show or I won't achieve such a clean look. But I think, despite my worries, he's one of the best edits from this bunch! And I'm really happy that I got his secretive and mischievous expression right as well! Just like his dangerously gorgeous, blood red eyes!)

• Sanada Yukimura

(He was one of the easiest! He doesn't have a complicated design, his face is quite simple; child-like, young, but also determined and earnest. The brown hair and brown eyes were a good combo as well, and they worked together nicely. At some point I tried giving him a smile or something, but then I just left it at the neutral expression. Like with almost everyone, since the program changes so much about their hair and face shape if you want to make the portraits smile lol.)

• Naoe Kanetsugu

(He wasn't hard, but choosing between the two semi-finals WAS hard. On one of them his hair was better, but his face was very off-track and didn't even look Asian. I don't know how in-character is he for real, but I think he's okay? Maybe a bit too generic, but still cool? His face is stern and straight, his jaw is firm and his eyes are sharp. A faithful subordinate of Kenshin, I think he's a decent try!)

• Toyotomi Hideyoshi

(I must admit, I'm the least satisfied with him. There's just something weird with his face? Or his smile? And he's hardly Asian, but at the same time he looks Asian as well? Just me? I think his hair is nice, its color is pretty though. And his carefree, pure, welcoming smile is really precious in my opinion! Fitting for Mamayoshi! I tried making a stern, strict expression too, but it looked really weird on him, again because the program converted his face so much that it just looked bad.)

• Imagawa Yoshimoto

(He was an early edit, and I'm having second thoughts, mainly because of his hair color. It has a blueish tint, I think?? Or I'm the only one seeing it, because I desperately tried mixing some blue into his hair but this time I failed miserably oof. But I do love his face and features, plus his sincere, relaxed smile! He's pretty, like a fine piece of art! Also he somehow looks both young and mature at the same time. I have no idea how I achieved that.)

• Ishida Mitsunari

(The angel, the most precious out of everyone! He looks so pure and like he fell from heaven! I don't know, he's one of the most satisfying edits in my opinion. I just love it so much how he came out! Maybe his hair could use some work and his mouth, but I feel like his face is spot on for some reason? Maybe he's not as happy as he usually is, I guess I captured a serious Mitsunari this time haha!)

...Whew! I'm happy that I got this done too, finally!

But I'm genuinely unsure, because as it already showed in my Ikevamp edits that I kind of suck editing Asian characters, it's simply harder for me...

But I pat myself on the shoulder for the effort and time! And they're such a big group, I'm happy that I could squeeze this in!

School season started again a month ago, so my free time is over, but I'm trying to post content! I'm just incredibly slow, as always! > <

Anyways, hope you enjoyed!
