No longer alone uwu They bff and keep talking to each other with honorifics for at least a year, fight me.
Was miraculously able to finish another piece for @surviveweek, just hoped I could have done more orz but I loved to have the chance to keep drawing for the game that keeps destroying me in all possible ways~
#digimon survive week#survive week#digimon#digimon survive#shinonome miu#minase miyuki#miu shinonome#miyuki minase#shakomon#renamon#syakomon#welcome to muiyuki (?) :3c#the amount of headcanons and future scenarios I have with the minase and shinonome siblings goes beyond my productivity and energy OTL#idk if you noticed but Miu calls miyuki with honorifics (aka Miyuki-san)#and Miyuki calls EVERYONE with honorifics so I can totally see the 'Miu-san' here#still don't know how to draw Renamon but I needed them there for Shakomon's sake uwu#anyway look!

Digimon Survive Week 2024
Day 3: Othermon
No, I will not explain myself.
(Actually, I will. Explanation under the cut)
Day 3: Brothermon lol
So I kinda cheated with this one. This goes along with the theory I had of Shuuji's brother having a Terriermon because the moment you see Lopmon on the cover of this game, you know the guy's got a sibling (and he's not having a good time).
But here we see from Terriermon's POV how their relationship pans out before the game and the feelings that sort of bleed through from their partners from the human world. There was a bit more dialogue in my initial draft but I cut it down to simplify.
Oh and I got that bit from Hurricane Touchdown when Terriermon says "Chocomon laughed" (I cry every time).

digimon survive week - day two, cooperation
spent the entire day thinking about what to draw, settled for talking about some of the ways i like to think of our protags and their partners helping each other.
aoi and labramon are quickly rising to be among my fave digimon&human duo. i like how they complement each other. for a personal headcanon, i think they both tend to focus on the details before the big picture, but since they focus on different details (thanks to labramon being. a dog.), it works.
i am also in full support of labramon as an emotional support animal, if not a full-on service dog. how did the kids survive all that without anything major, i don't know - specially aoi. girl you got into so many situations.
i also really like how the game shows the digipartners doing stuff other than fighting. this means that i cheered every time labramon smelled something. she's a dog. i love her.
y'all know i love shuuji and lopmon. didn't draw them today but i adore their dynamic, specially during truthful. i like to think of lopmon's presence, once his bond with shuuji is stronger, to be somewhat... naturally relaxing. so when shuuji's upset or panicking (or both! boy. you need help), lopmon just. climbs him and wraps his ears around his face or something.
ryo and kunemon. i don't have to say anything else. they're my other favorite duo.
i AM saying something though. semiverbal ryo is canon to me and part of the reason why he and kunemon can understand each other. if he's too upset to make any sound kunemon "talks" for him.
#i would share something else but hands hurty#digimon survive week#survive week#ryo tominaga#digimon survive ryo#aoi shibuya#digimon survive aoi#art tag#digimon survive#digimon survive spoilers#digimon

Hello, everyone! Thank you to everyone who filled out the survey for the event. I have compiled all the results as to what our prompts this year will be!
Since it seems the proposed dates worked for a majority of possible participants, Survive Week will indeed take place from January 28th to February 3rd!
The prompts will be as follows:
January 28th: A New World
January 29th: Cooperation
January 30th: Other Digi - Er, Kemonogami
January 31st: Supporting Characters
February 1st: Villains
February 2nd: Dark & Loss*
February 3rd: Post-Game/Future
*These are two separate prompts that were vague enough, I figured they could work for the same day!
Since the "Post-Game/Future" prompt was so overwhelmingly popular, I went with the individual prompts rather than the characters-as-prompts idea. If there is enough interest for another event in 2025 (oh gosh, the future...), then we can surely revisit that idea! For now, I hope these prompts allow the creative juice to flow!!
Please feel free to message this blog through asks or DMs if you have questions, and we look forward to the event in two months!
Keep on surviving, everyone!

Kaito, Aoi, and the Importance of Digimon Survive's Intertexuality Across Routes
Digimon Survive is such a powerful narrative because its core theme is reinforced through its very structure as a visual novel. The game's radical belief in the ability for anyone to blossom into the best versions of themselves given the right circumstances is a powerful concept, but it could easily come off as naive. To avoid coming off as naive, there must be an acknowledgement of the darkest parts of our hearts.
It's like this:
In the Truthful Ending, Kaito has some issues with anger and overprotectiveness, but ultimately develops a slightly healthier relationship with his sister. A fine snapshot of a young boy's life over the course of a few weeks, but is it a snapshot of the young boy's soul? I think not. That snapshot comes in more parts. To see how his relationship with Miu would develop in more dire circumstances, you must see Moral Route. To see how he would cultivate a more strenuous relationship with Miu in light of a heightened sense of danger in the world, you must see Wrathful Route. To see who Kaito would become without Miu's grounding presence, you must see Harmony Route.
By seeing Kaito across four dimensions, you are able to form a picture of the actual Kaito. In composite, Kaito is obviously a good person. He is motivated by a desire to protect. He is brave. He cares for people. Even his friends who he betrayed in Harmony Route could see that deep down, Kaito had the potential to be a good person. This is seen when they all wish to extend an offer of forgiveness to Kaito, even after he resolved to destroy the world. By seeing Kaito at his absolute worst, we actually see a glimmer of his potential.
(I would like to clarify that I do not believe that Kaito "redeemed himself by dying," nor is it my reading of the text that Kaito was made to die as punishment for his misdeeds. I understand how one may come to those readings of the text, but I believe it was an unfortunate and unintended implication at worst.)
Aoi is an overachiever. She's a bright young girl, and that comes with certain expectations. If one were to look at her on a very surface level, you would think that she understands the importance of the responsibilities she's been given, and she doesn't mind the extra work. That is obviously bullshit, but to some extent, this is the image she puts out into the world. Aoi is not forthcoming about her emotions, so prior to meeting Labramon, she allows herself to stoically accept an unfair burden. Her fellow students take advantage of her, and her opinion is rarely respected among the other chosen children when discussing next steps. Without the ability to assert herself, she has all of the responsibility with none of the actual power. She must work hard, but she cannot do good.
This is a shame. Aoi is motivated by a strong sense of justice. The best version of herself is one who has the confidence to set boundaries and stand firm on issues she cares about, but much like Kaito, watching her grow into her best self is merely a snapshot of a few weeks in the life of a child. To truly plunder the depths of Aoi's soul, we must look into Wrathful Route.
In Wrathful Route, we see the most explosive expression of Aoi's convictions. She learns that a sense of justice is worth nothing if you don't have power, and power is worthless if it is not used. While nobody younger than Aoi dies in Moral Route, and Miu's safety in Harmony Route is Kaito's responsibility first and foremost, Saki's safety was squarely Aoi's responsibility.
Aoi's grief over her own failure to uphold her values causes an overcorrection. She is overcome with a desire to wield the maximum possible power and realize a twisted vision of maximum possible justice.
I love the gusto, Aoi, but human instrumentality is not a healthy response to traumatic invalidation.
It's important to stress that while I love Saki and think Saki/Aoi is an adorable ship, Saki's death is not the sole cause of Aoi's mental anguish. Saki's death was the catalyst for Aoi to close herself off from the community who could have helped her. The anguish began developing years prior.
In other routes, Aoi's relationship to her sense of justice, her responsibility, and her assertiveness develop in different ways, but by examining Aoi across four dimensions, we can understand Aoi's actual self. In composite, Aoi is a good person. She has strong convictions. She is protective. She is capable. There are a lot of ways these values can shape a young girl, and Aoi deserves a life where she has a supportive community to allow her to grow into the best version of herself. Don't we all?
At the core of both Kaito and Aoi, we find good people. I like to think you'd find the same at the core of everyone in real life, too. And yet, in real life, we obviously find people who do work to make the world a worse place. In Digimon Survive, we can see the paths not taken, for better and for worse. In doing so, we see the Truth of each character.
(This is not wholly unrelated to the appeal of "the Digimon as a reflection of the human partner's true self." In Dracmon, we see Kaito's protectiveness in a more trusting and easygoing package. In Labramon, we see Aoi's supportiveness in a more assertive package.)

[Image Description: A digital drawing of Aoi Shibuya and Saki Kimishima from Digimon Survive. They’re hugging each other in celebration. Saki’s right leg is kicked up in the air while she has her hands wrapped around Aoi’s waist. Aoi, laughing, has her arms around Saki’s shoulders. They’re looking at each other while their faces are almost pressed together. Both have one eye closed due to how close they are to each other. The background is a grassy and clear field with a blue sky and clouds. End Image Description.]
Day 2 of @surviveweek: Cooperation
I love Saki’s and Aoi’s relationship throughout the game. How Saki supports Aoi and constantly reminds her to not be so selfless. On the other side, Aoi reassures Saki and soothes her anxiety.
I love them so much that I made a playlist which can be interpreted as platonic and romantic 💚🩷❤️ it goes from Aoi -> Saki -> Their relationship.

Digimon Survive Week 2024 – Day 7: Post-Game/Future
Aged up Shuuji design by @kbondoxxxxav. I've always wanted to draw her designs! I initially wanted to draw all 8 of them, but trying to get the bike right exhausted my drawing energy lol
EDIT: tagging @surviveweek
anyway, a personal headcanon about future!Shuuji under the cut.
I like to think that Shuuji, during his university years, switched to anthropology from his initial major that his family pressured him to take (perhaps medicine?)–not only that it fits him following Professor's steps (who researches and teaches folklore as an anthropology course), it'd also make a nice throwback to Kido Shuu in Digimon Adventure 02.

Digimon Survive Week
Day 5: Villain
(this is a screenshot im sorry 😭 i didnt realise I saved the file as a pdf insead of a png)
So for today, I planned on doing a brief Arukenimon write up but I didnt know how appropriate it would be to gush about the way she manipulated and gaslit these kids (i dont use that term lightly, but I might have to write about it some day when Im brave enough). She stressed me out so much lol.
So I drew this fun little thing instead.
@surviveweek
Spoilers for part 3 under the cut
Rated T for Shuuji (?!) And Minoru's inappropriate commentary
I was gonna draw this too but I wanted to focus on finishing tomorrow's fic

digimon survive week - day... er, three? four? other kemonogami/supporting characters
turns out: i overestimated my ability to keep up with events in stressful situations. oh well! took it easy and joined two days in one, because i love the gomamon in this game and. yeah.
i do like how the digimon have these small, somewhat peaceful communities in such a chaotic world. the gomamon, the small group miu stumbles into, etc.
but i did mostly want to draw the gomamon sleeping like a pile of kittens.
#digimon survive week#digimon survive#survive week#digimon survive professor#<- i think the fact that the local old man was adopted by a bunch of weird seals is overlooked in this fandom#children are constantly doing their best to take care of him. it's amazing.#he needs it also. sir stop getting in situations.#gomamon#art tag
