is there a rebloggable post with the colored-in manga art of Atsushi holding Kinshirou somewhere? One that doesn't say "Kinatsu week" on it? thank you!
Thank you to everyone who participated in Kinatsu Week 2017!!!
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has participated through fic and art and graphics!!!
Even though we were expecting slightly more from the fandom after the positive response from the announcement post, the events of season two, and all of the kinatsu official art that has been released, the participation went quite well considering that the KinAtsu fandom is rather small.

Ahhh what nice gorgeous Halloween aesthetic graphics!
The first one is cute and hilarious at the same time. Kinshiro is trying to be scary but he just looks cute instead. Nice try Kin-chan! But his blush and his costume put onto the haunted house orange background suits so well and fits together perfectly! It’s also cool how it’s on a bluey-green background.
The middle one is also so nice! Atsushi looks really good in his costume, and the image fits perfectly with the background too! With the wings on his costume it seems like Atsushi could go into the sky and fly around with the bats.
And the last one! The background fits so well. The colours completely match Kinshiro’s aesthetic. Because it’s his colour but also because it matches the cape and looks good with his image. And the blush on his face perfects it!
Thanks for sharing this adorable Halloween graphics!
Oh my this is such an adorable graphic! Look at these chibis in their halloween costumes!
Atsushi is looking fabulous in his devlil costume and Kinshiro with his tiny cape. The chibis you used are perfect. Atsushi’s smiling, but Kinshiro looks... a bit shy/embarrassed? Just like him. But he looks really good, even if he didn’t try so much in his costume ahaha.
And the border you chose is such a nice vibrant one and it matches the chibis perfectly!
Thank you for sharing this cute halloween graphic!
Look at these adorable boys in their Halloween costumes!! They look just absolutely precious! Everything about this artwork is so adorable and so nice to look at!
The background decorations are so well done! The ghosts, the pumpkin lights, the bats, the oranges and blacks, that giant ghost in the front, the basket of candies, the sign, all of it looks fantastic!
For Kinshiro, his pumpkin costume is so precious and looks so great on him. I love the oranges and greens and how his socks are one of each. And the way he’s sticking out his tongue is so cute, I love it. And his hat too is perfect for the costume!
Atsushi’s costume looks fantastic as well! The witch hat and cape; and the dark red and black colours all look so good on him! The way he has a lollipop in his mouth is so cute and he looks so happy. His eyes are also wide and bright.
This is such a cute Halloween pic!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful art!

Atsushi and Kinshiro are a pair of unfortunate souls - they can’t move on to the afterlife. Instead, they’ve been given a mission to search the world for other lost souls who would otherwise be doomed to haunt the earth. It’s depressing work, but at least they have each other to lean on.
Wow. What an amazing, beautiful and haunting fic. It's such an interesting idea, and the way you wrote about the afterlife was just so well thought out and breathtaking.
You wrote both characters in their different situations so well, they were incredibly in character. Atsushi's life, and Kinshiro's life, their lives, their regrets, their differing perceptions despite the things they have in common.
How you wrote their relationship was so wonderful and sweet. They were put in the situation together, so the way they went from strangers to aquaintances to companions who sought each other out to necessary presences for each other was such a wonderful and natural progression.
How you explained and developed their situation... it was so sad. I could feel their pain while reading, and can't even imagine how it must feel to be in that situation, seeing death after death, dealing with everything they're dealing with.
How they had each other in that difficult life made everything better and it was clear how they became each other's rock.
Every single moment between them... their talks, the way they just hung out and explored the world together, experiencing things they never did while they were alive... it was just all so deeply meaningful and profound. It was something beautiful despite the misery they had to experience for their duties.
They took such great pleasure in each other and the way they grew to the point where they didn't want to complete their duty and separate was so beautiful. Their whole relationship and all the moments leading up to their kiss and departure was just perfect.
The revelation that they were each other's lost souls was such a great one.. and so they entered the doors together!
And oh my goodness! That ending! I didn't see it coming at all! It was such a wonderful twist; a wonderful happy end that I can't even use words to describe.
It was fantastic! Reincarnated; able to meet again. And this time they can spend their whole lives together like they yearned for since meeting, since they were made for each other.
This was such a beautiful fic. Thank you for sharing!!
Incubus Atsushi is honestly too sexy for his own good~
The shine to their eyes makes the image stand out perfectly against the deep, dark magenta hues.
The shiny leather of Atsushi’s outfit is perfect in its design; the folds in the clothing seems to have been paid close attention and must not have been easy to draw!
Both of their outfits are very nice to look at from the frills on Kinshiro’s shirt to the immense amount of leather covering Atsushi. The accessories of bracelets and necklaces on Atsushi and green gem on Kinshiro are details that add personality to their character as an incubus and vampire.
Kinshiro’s ponytail is as adorable as he (and his outfit) is compared to the sexy creature that stands beside him~
The positioning of Atsushi’s LEG is incredibly seductive and oh so sexy~
Atsushi’s horns and tail curling over around Kinshiro’s wrist seems possessive as if he’s telling everyone that Kin-chan is his and his alone. Those bedroom eyes also tell of a deep, intimate relationship between them as the incubus licks his lips.
Atsushi’s hand around Kinshiro’s waist with Kinshiro's hand on Atsushi's shoulder is fantastic as we see them so close together.
I also notice a faint red mark on Atsushi’s neck? Is that where vampire Kin-chan bit him, hmm?
The idea of the incubus feeding on the vampire’s sexual dreams while the vampire feeds from the incubus’ blood must satisfy both their respective desires~
Thank you for all your art contributions and participation for every day of KinAtsu Week 2017!
I love them all and appreciate every single one of your beautiful, fantastic and magical art~!!!
Poor Kinshiro. He has no idea what is happening, or why he's having these dreams, or that an incubus has made him his prey.
His reactions to every single thing regarding Atsushi were so on point! His flirtations in school, and of course, in the dreams themselves, and after the dreams! Atsushi just wants to feed, but Kinshiro has no idea what he's dealing with.
Seeing Kinshiro slowly losing his mind and succumbing to his attraction to his classmate via the dreams and reality together was such a joy. His slowburn acceptance of his attraction was written so well!
That last line... Kinshiro should know right then what a goner he is.
And at last after so long of all of the teasing and flirting and dream fun, Atsushi finally had his meal. He had so much fun preying on the interesting and attractive human. He also has his own attraction issues, huh. Both of them have their problems and it's interesting.
Cue one of those gloriously long, sappy, heartfelt and intimate paragraphs you find in first person fanfiction, where they’re thinking about how they just *so* in love
Look at Atsushi's adorable blush! He seemed to blush right when Kinshiro said his name. So utterly precious; you can tell how in love he is.
And Kinshiro! The way he went from saying Atsushi's name to looking down with a small smile. His face just looks so cute there. Is he being shy?
And then in the last picture he just says it clearly. Good job Kin-chan!! You did it!
And it goes so perfectly with the other art you did of Atsushi's confession. We know the feelings are indeed mutual. It's so precious. The sappy moment where they think about how much in love they are like you said suits them so well and it’s beautiful.
Look at Atsushi being such a precious sweetheart. His bright smile in the first image as he's looking at Kinshiro... as if he's not aware of it?
And then his look of surprise in the second one as he realizes how he was staring...!! That is such an adorable image! I love how he appears to be deep in thought.
The way his expression changes as he decides he's going to confess.... it's so cute.
And then he says it clearly! Ahh that was so brave of Atsushi to just confess so easily like that! And he looks so happy while doing so.
Atsushi has quite the turmoil indeed, doesn’t he? How was he supposed to react when Kinshiro walked up to Atsushi, snuggling into him, especially clad in a robe!
Atsushi understandably freaks out. Kinshiro is so incredibly going to cause his doom, isn’t he? Atsushi was so distracted by Kinshiro that he forgot all about his phone call. Call, what call? And Kinshiro didn’t care either, he just wanted attention from Atsushi!
That was so cute of Kinshiro to do, despite how he caused Atsushi’s extreme turmoil. Just imagining Kinshiro, wanting attention, clinging to Atsushi like that... too cute! He was enjoying the embrace so much, but it was also hilarious how he deliberately teased him a bit.
Atsushi was rightfully ruined by that leg. And then the robe started slipping and it just is not easy for poor Atsushi is it... he couldn’t help doing what he did.
And the last lines - Kinshiro is loving it but he’s also going crazy, huh.

Atsushi has always been the model employee. That’s why he’s been given a very special job: to teach an AI how to behave like a human. He’s got very specific instructions for how to treat his new device, but the more he gets to know Kinshiro, the more he believes he’s got the potential to be something more than a mere program. Now he has to decide whether to risk everything and break the rules for Kinshiro’s sake.
This is such a wonderful and creative idea for a story! The premise of it is so interesting and unique and so much intelligence and effort must have went into it!
You wrote Atsushi so well. I love how he was into science, so he jumped at the chance to participate in the project despite all the unknowns. He's a really dedicated person who wants to learn.
And the addition of Kinshiro! Their first meeting was so wonderful. How he immediately named him, and started to teach him things. How their companionship started building up was so enrapturing and sweet.
The way you wrote AI Kinshiro was also so well done! The descriptions of Kinshiro's backstory in his POV was really sad, how the scientists treated him. But that makes it even more special now that someone like Atsushi took him in. It was really nice to read how he started to take pleasures in things (like stars), and wanting to learn more new things thanks to Atsushi, and Atsushi asking him what he likes.
The way their friendship built by each small moment was really sweet.
When Kinshiro wanted to improve himself, it was so nice how Atsushi didn't hesitate in trying to help him, despite the consequences it might have for himself. It was clear how much it meant and how much he treasures Kinshiro.
It was so nice despite the looming sadness that they'd have to part eventually.
The scene where they gently touched each other; and conversed about Kinshiro's future where Atsushi said he'd steal Kinshiro away, that was just... so absolutely sweet and emotional. They're both so precious and better together.
Oh no! It was going so nicely, I didn't expect it to end so soon - when Atsushi and Kinshiro got caught with equpiment tampering... that was scary.
Kinshiro's goodbye... was so emotional!! It was so heartbreaking, and the way Atsushi reacted made it even more heartwrenching. My goodness.
And then Atsushi literally made do on his promise, he tried to hard to get Kinshiro back; despite what awful (and legal) consequences it'd have for him. Atsushi was just so admirable.
And it's so good that those scientists were able to listen to him!! What a relief!
The solution they came up with, a way to save Kinshiro and keep him and Atsushi together... it was such a good one. Bless Io!
It was also so cool how you added Akoya and Arima as being AIs too!
My huble participation for the Kinatsu week. This is the first time I do something like this (well, I’ve done other things, but with ilustrations). This thing is from my music project called The Inciclopedist and if well this project is a joke, I must confess the original catch my attention since the first time and the day I search the lyrics I knew this would be perfect for this couple. The lyrics means about the need that sometimes we have to hear the voice of our loved person. It’a a little sad, but if you had read the compilation and seen the anime, this is the right song for them…
This is a really amazing sounding song! It’s so brilliant how you created this. It sounds so upbeat and easy to listen to. I love the tune and the rhythm and the voice sounds like a really perfect companion to it.
Imagining the meaning that you told us, (about how it’s about needing to hear the voice of your loved one) to go along with the song adds a wonderful layer of emotion to it and makes the listen sweeter. That type of theme really fits with Kinshiro and Atsushi perfectly.
It’s clear that they love each other so much; but aren’t always able to be together or hear each other’s voice.
This is a really really neat and creative work; thank you for sharing it!
Say, whom are you thinking about right now?
As for me, I’m thinking about you.
Looking up at the night sky
and seeing the beautiful stars,
I wish you would be here with me. 🌠
This is just such a beautiful and haunting graphic. The mood it captures is just so peaceful and yet filled of longing.
The pictures of Atsushi and Kinshiro you chose were really amazing choices! They both look sad and yearning, like they’re desperate to be beside each other but are separated... the feeling is seen both in their expressions and the way they both have a hand on their shoulders,
And the background was perfectly chosen too! The night sky, the moon, all fits with the theme of the song; and the mood the two boys have. It’s also so cool that each night sky is mirrored with the shooting star faced the opposite direction!
This is a very nice graphic; thank you for sharing!
This is beautiful! Breathtaking! The starry sky in the background is brilliantly done. All of the blues and purples; and of course the stars themselves all add up to such a gorgeous starry scenery.
And Kinshiro! The way he’s looking up into the sky, his expression wistful/longing; as he thinks about Atsushi, wishing he was here with him. The lyrics match the beautiful scene perfectly.
And of course, there is the shooting star. It’s perfectly placed, close to Kinshiro’s profile, making his feelings and the fact that he’s likely making a wish more profound.
It’s such a beautiful work with such a soothing and yet wistful mood. Thank you for sharing; it’s lovely!
The story that this art is telling is really bittersweet. Kinshiro, sitting there, alone, while Atsushi is having a good time spending time with En. The lyrics perfectly match up with what Kinshiro must be thinking about.
This is a really nice artwork! I love the details; like how each character has headphones and sweaters in their own colours. The colouring in it is very beautiful. The dark colours look really nice on the piece, and it suits the mood that the lyrics give.
It’s really sad that Kinshiro is alone, pining for Atsushi, wishing he’d only look at him... it’s quite heartbreaking despite how gorgeous the art is. Which makes it even better.
