Hi, how are you? sorry for bothering! I wanted to know if you would allow me to use your fanart on a fanfic cover? I will give all due credits to you! thank you very much

Hi! 👋 I'm doing well~ 💛 Yes, of course you can—as long as you credit me as the artist 👐

People have been asking me about this a lot lately. It actually makes me happy, because it means so many SasuHina fans like my drawings enough to want to use them for fanfic covers 🥹🫶💕 I love it when one person's work inspires other creative people.

[kurootedi]

I LOVEEEE your sasuhina art!! Especially with their kids 🥺🥺 thank you sooo much for the content! 🫶

I'm so glad you like my drawings of the SasuHina family~ 🌻☺️💕 I love them so much; they are such precious little ones.

[kurootedi]

I had an idea for a modern AU: Hinata is away on a business trip, and her husband and kids are video-calling her to say how much they miss her 🥹❤️‍🩹 Mom misses them too.

Don't mind the fact that I'm uploading this a bit late. I thought I'd finish some other SasuHina family drawings soon, but I didn't quite get around to them—so here you go! 😋✨

Hello! My name is Deh/Tokyoskn.

I create fanfic covers as a hobby, completely free and non-profit. I recently came across your artwork and absolutely loved it!

Before using any art, I always make sure to ask for the artist's permission first, and I give full credit, including a link to the original profile.

Would you be comfortable allowing me to use your artwork in future cover edits?

Thank you so much for your time, and regardless of your answer, I truly appreciate your work and the beautiful art you create.

Hi, Deh 👋Sure, you can. I don't usually stop people from using my art for fanfiction covers—just credit me as the artist :3

[kurootedi]

Please know you have so many people that love your art & support you- I'm sorry you've gotten so much hate!!

Thank you for the support 🌻💕 I really feel better now and I'm back to my stable state again (⁠^⁠^⁠) In some ways, I think I've become even more resilient to haters ;3

[kurootedi]

Just wanted to say I am so so proud of you for keeping strong and being resilient in the face of such hatred while also being willing to think retrospectively about yourself and your art, it's so important and in books already shows your strength of character. I used to be a SH fan artist back in the 2005-2006 era and it's really sad to see that 20 years later the haters still persist. I'm more of a ghost online these days but your work has always brought joy and reminded me of the wonderful memories I had with the community. I hope you have an amazing day and that drawing what you like always brings you as much joy as it has brought me 🫂

Thanks for the kind words and support 🫂💕

The thing is, the world is full of jerks, and being a softie means you literally can’t survive. You have to build walls around yourself and shut down the haters so they don’t get too cocky. At this rate, I’ll turn from stone into iron before long!

They may have affected some part of me, but... Even I can’t change the most important things in my life. I’m doing fine, and right now I’m focused on what I love and what brings me joy 😊👐✨ They’ve made me realize how much I love my life outside the internet and that I should cherish the real moments.

I wish you all the best, too!🌻

[kurootedi]

Ah! I'm so furious! How could anyone attack such an amazing artist?!

Maybe it's my limited perspective, or maybe it's really true — I'm not sure. But I really feel like the world is moving more and more in the direction of 'if you're not with us, you're against us.' Turns out there are such people everywhere in the world. People who don't understand basic respect for others, who can't even grasp the simple concept of just closing the page if they don't like something — instead, they hide behind screens and spew malice at others. It can't be helped — cockroaches and rats always exist in every dark corner of the world.

But I don't want you to be unhappy!!! Oh my god, you have no idea how many people love your work!!! Your SasuHina pieces are incredibly, incredibly, incredibly amazing!!! Since English isn't my native language either, sometimes I worry about making mistakes in expression, so I usually just click the heart button, or share your links with fellow fans on Chinese sites or forums. Seeing someone bully you, and that it actually affects you — I'm so, so, so angry!!! Why should someone so precious be bullied by cockroaches and rats?!

If there's a next time, just screenshot it directly!!! Don't endure it alone!!! Let me help you curse them out!!! Good people have such strong morals that they feel especially hurt when attacked!!! I just want to try my best to make our genius artist feel a little happier!!! I'm also curious — when these garbage people are exposed to the public, would they still be so arrogant in expressing their narrow-mindedness and unreasonableness? You don't have to bear this alone!!! You're the creator, you're the boss!!! You're the one who deserves to be pleased the most!!! If someone makes you unhappy, please always put your own feelings above theirs!!! I will love you forever!!! Sorry I'm really emotional today, but I really want to tell you that you deserve to be treated well and loved!!! I love you!!!

I know there will always be criticism, and there will always be people who don’t like my drawings. And I didn’t care when haters criticized Shipp or my artwork… But they went too far when they started bringing up overly serious topics directed personally at me as a person.

Of course, I’m no saint either, and maybe I’ve done some things that weren’t quite right, but there are certain things I’m absolutely sure of. Everything they wrote is untrue, and I am someone who CANNOT and does NOT like jokes about very serious topics. And I take them seriously because it is immoral to accept such things as the norm. Below, I’ve provided three examples of what people wrote to me and under which drawings.

One of my followers messaged one of them—the one who had commented on SasuHina’s art—telling them to apologize, and… It infuriated me that they claimed they’d only written that to me as a joke and then apologized by sending a “✌️” emoji. If it was a joke to them, I couldn’t get over it for a long time and almost fell into a depression. I hate people like that, and I will never forgive them. I don’t need their insincere and stupid apologies.

I reported the accounts and posted about it on Instagram, but it didn’t do any good. Those users are still living their lives just fine. So I decided to ignore it and move on without wasting my energy on them. I’ve only shown you these specific instances now, but in reality, I’ve been getting messages from thousands of haters since 2025... I had to block a lot of them. There were even those who deliberately drew ugly faces over Sasuke in Naruto to show their hatred and mock my drawing. That was the “Soda Pop” drawing, by the way.

So... I don't know how to deal with this anymore. I'm not a very popular artist, and I just draw what I like. As a result, only a small circle of my followers pays attention to my complaints. I don't blame anyone; it's up to each person to decide what to do. I’m not saying all this to elicit pity or to get everyone to support me right away. I’m saying it to explain that I no longer see the point in posting these kinds of complaints and stories on Instagram with comments from haters, because in the end, there are no consequences for those haters. Everyone quickly forgets these incidents except me.

Well, I guess I got a little carried away! Sorry for venting like this 😅 It’s just that I can’t hold back anymore, and I tend to ramble a lot whenever someone mentions haters to me. The world is full of beauty, and we can’t let these pathetic haters—who can’t do anything themselves and just sit on the couch criticizing—bring us down. They deserve neither respect nor forgiveness. They’re only brave online.

Thank you for your support; it means so much to me 🫂💕 It’s sweet that you wrote to me even though your English isn’t great. I’m not great at the language either, so it’s all good! I posted a few of my drawings or WIPs to calm down and show my followers that I’m doing fine now. However, I won’t be posting my drawings online for a while—maybe just some sketches.

I’m flattered that there are people even in China who like my drawings! If you don’t mind, could you share the link where you’re posting my drawings? 👉👈 I’d like to check it out, since I don’t usually use Chinese platforms.

[kurootedi]

please dont be swayed by the hate of those who have nothing better to do with their time, than persecute people they dont agree with. art in all forms is a safe space to explore a wide, vast number of things, without the idea that it perpetuates harm.

you are not a predator. you are not hurting people by enjoying something in fantasy. you are not personally responsible for people who are fully in control of themselves.

you are just a person making art that you and many others enjoy. their are plenty of media examples that perpetuate and normalize abuse. that is not what youre creating. that is not what you are doing.

people who want to hurt others have already decided to do it before it happens. your art doesnt make anyone do anything. that idea is spurred by a lack of personal responsibility.

let hateful people have their opinions. block them out as best as you can. keep making beautiful art. dont feel responsible for how others are living their lives. bless you, and everyone else that receives such harmful rhetoric, from people who really, truly have nothing better to do.

Thank you for your support 💛

It amazes me why people online act as if fictional characters are more real than real people. Of course, if even fictional characters were depicted in a disgusting or immoral way, that would certainly deserve condemnation. But what if it’s a harmless drawing based on fantasy that doesn’t hurt anyone and even brings joy to people? That’s a different story.

I know that, of course, you shouldn’t take haters’ words seriously or fall for their provocations. For the most part, they have no shame or conscience when they push someone to the limit and hurt someone. These haters disgust me. How can anyone be so inhumane and say such things to people who haven’t done anything wrong? I’ll never understand them, and I don’t want to. Personally, I don’t think it’s funny at all. Even jokes have their limits. I think those who saw it understood what happened, but people often forget that there’s a real person on the other side of the screen and say whatever comes to mind online without thinking about the consequences.

Everyone just has their limit, and my patience snapped in early May when it had all built up. I wanted to both stay silent and speak up... and I chose to speak up.

I also think that you can always learn something useful from every experience, even the unsuccessful ones. And I did learn from it, so I don’t feel the same way I did before.

Thanks again, and yes, I wouldn’t wish this on any nice people either. I wish you all the best 🌻🤗💕

[kurootedi]

I said I’d give a detailed account of what happened after my little break from social media. So, I’m doing fine now. I’ve pulled myself together, went out into nature, had a delicious meal, and took lots of beautiful photos of the outdoors. My loved ones supported me and helped me get out of that unpleasant state.

I’ll admit, those comments about pedophilia really… got to me. Why? Because I’m one of the most ardent haters of pedophiles. And when I was lumped in with those disgusting people just because of one harmless drawing of mine, it made me feel sick. I really tried to hold it together and ignore the haters. I handled it perfectly in the SasuHina fandom and ignored the haters... But recently this year, two people wrote something unpleasant and horrible to me (I don’t want to say it out loud). And then in the Avatar fandom, it became my last straw, and I... couldn’t hold back. I didn’t want to go online, and I didn’t want to give the haters the satisfaction of showing them that they really did make me cry 😅 But now I’m talking about it because I’m not ashamed to talk about how I feel. Because the only people who should feel ashamed are those crazy haters. Although most of these haters have no moral principles, and they don’t care who they hurt. They just need to selfishly vent all their negativity on others. And that’s why I don’t care how they feel either.

So, I’m feeling better now! And I’ve strengthened my resilience once again 💪✨

I don't care what anyone thinks—I love all my drawings! I posted Zutoph here on purpose, but I didn’t plan on it at first—this account was meant for my Naruto drawings. By the way, I won’t be back until mid-June. Thanks to everyone for your supportive comments; I wanted to reply to each of you individually at first, but I decided to make one post and thank you all here 🫶🌻

[kurootedi]

My Thoughts.

So, this is the first time I’m posting something like this here to share what’s been on my mind. I didn’t want to write a separate post like this and possibly ruin my followers’ mood, but I have to because I want to speak my mind. As you know, my followers, SasuHina has always been hated by most people in the Naruto fandom. And this has been exacerbated by the fact that this ship has only become more popular in recent years.

Recently, I also started shipping Zuko and Toph from Avatar. I thought a lot of people liked them... But as it turns out, this ship has a lot of haters too (I didn’t know this, by the way, until these people came after me).

I was already under pressure from haters in the Naruto fandom, and now there are some from Avatar too. My art on Twitter became very popular. I was thrilled because it was the first time I got 100,000 likes—I’d never gotten that many before.

And it was this particular drawing that the haters latched onto. They’re accusing me of pedophilia... Before this, in the Naruto fandom, haters called me crazy, saying that those who ship SasuHina should go to a mental hospital, and even talked about death, and now they’re making me out to be a criminal. And do you know what they’re basing these conclusions on? Just one drawing where I drew a blush on Zuko’s cheeks when he’s standing next to Toph. I already replied to one person that I drew him that way because I thought it would be cute to draw a shy teenager, Zuko, who’s embarrassed NOT because of Toph, but because they’re changing his height and taking pictures of him. He’s not even looking at Toph in this art; his gaze is directed forward. Just because I used their ship’s hashtag doesn’t mean I meant that Zuko is blushing from dirty thoughts. If that’s the first thing that came to their minds when they saw my drawing, then they have mental health issues.

Have you even seen how many artists draw couples as children and use a hashtag that implies their ship? Or how they depict one as an adult and the other as a child with a hashtag??? And they do it without any weirdness, and no one tries to strangle them for it. (But of course there are those who really do draw like that with dirty thoughts, but we’re not talking about them.) Somehow I don’t see all these saints over there. They always show up where they’re NOT NEEDED.

Why do I have to explain ordinary, basic things to people??? No, I’m not making excuses to unreasonable haters. I’M EXPLaining what they themselves misinterpreted because of their own obsessive thoughts. Why do I have to write a whole post and feel bad because people I don’t even know on the internet are accusing me without any basis? They don’t know who I am or what kind of person I am, so what right do they have to jump to conclusions without evidence and accuse me of one of the worst crimes in the world?

The haters have already crossed the line. I’ve been holding my ground and just trying not to pay attention since 2025, when a flood of haters started appearing on TikTok and Instagram because my posts featuring Shipp—which they don’t like—were gaining popularity. And now on Twitter, on my new account, people have started criticizing me over a single ZukoToph drawing. They’re making a mountain out of a molehill. I don’t know if this post will change their opinions of me, but I don’t care anymore. I’m just speaking my mind. If you want to act like weirdos, go ahead; if you want to change your tune, whatever.

I even had to limit comments on Instagram just so the haters would leave me alone. I’ll probably do the same on TikTok in the future. Unfortunately, Twitter doesn’t work that way, and the haters get to me through retweets.

Thank you all for your support and love for my work. It’s tough for artists online—many are accused and slandered simply because people don’t like our drawings. And I’m specifically talking about artists who DO NOT draw disgusting things!

Why is it so hard for them to just scroll past or block me if they don’t like SasuHina and ZukoTof? I don’t draw immoral things, and I don’t support them at all! Before writing nasty things, they should think carefully instead of just writing the first thing that comes to mind. We’re all adults here, right? So let’s act like adults and do the wise thing.

Thanks again for listening to me, and to everyone who stood up for me and always does. I’m already exhausted from my own personal issues in life, and getting this kind of unwarranted flood of hate from people—especially for someone who hates unnecessary conflict—is just too much.

I'm going to take a break from the internet, but don't worry—I'll be back once I've had enough rest.

Sweet moments of the newlyweds 💕

17.04.2026

[kurootedi]

The story in my head: The Uchiha and Hyuga families, two of the oldest and most influential yakuza families. One day, the two clans decided to marry their children off to unite the families and end their feud... But neither side fully trusted the other. This was justified, since the Uchiha had decided to use the wedding as a pretext to eliminate the Hyuga clan leader and destroy them.

Sasuke and Hinata were engaged. But before the wedding, they saw each other often. Sasuke had been tasked by Fugaku to learn more about the Hyuga family from Hinata. And since they were the bride and groom, it was the perfect opportunity to arrange a meeting without raising any particular suspicions or questions.

This scene depicts Sasuke fleeing with Hinata from attackers (is he kidnapping her?). She realizes what his family is planning and points a gun at him. She was just going to scare him and force him to back down. Even though his family are his enemies, she doesn’t hate him. Even during the time they spent together before the wedding, Hinata began to feel a slight attraction to him.

“Back off,” she says in a trembling voice, taking a step back from him.

Sasuke calmly studies her. He instantly realizes: she wasn’t going to shoot him. He smirks, taking slow steps toward her.

Hinata tenses, pressing her lips into a thin line. He understands her intention.

Sasuke grabs the gun and presses it against his chest, right over his heart, then leans down close to her and whispers, “Go ahead. Shoot.”

(I used a translator; I hope it translated everything correctly XD)

Can you draw GaaNaru? Just one for me, please? I love your art so much 🥹

Oh, I probably won’t draw them as a couple. But I’d love to draw a collaborative piece of them someday, because I love their dynamic as best friends 💛

But I don’t know when I’ll actually do it because I only draw when I’m feeling inspired or have ideas ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ The only thing I can draw all the time is SasuHina XD

[kurootedi]

Not really a question but omg I LOVE your art soooooo muchhhhh!!!! You just made my SasuHina heart soooo happyyyyy!!!! (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Please never stop making art!!! You are SO talented ^^

Awww 💕 Thank you so much for your kind words 🌻 ☺️💛 Of course, I'll keep drawing SasuHina! \⁠(⁠ϋ⁠)⁠/💙💜

GaaFuuWeek2026

Day 7. @gaafuuweek

Since I had a free day on the 7th, I drew a sad piece of fan art that stays pretty close to the canon. Gaara says goodbye to her soul, saying, “I'll miss you” 😭💔

Aaand... I drew another mini-drawing to thank everyone who joined Gaafu Week! 😊🫶 Thank you all—your amazing artwork and support really made my day. For the first time since I started shipping Gaafuu, I felt like I’m not the only one who loves them 😭 I found others who ship them too, and we’ve formed a little fandom circle here! Yay~ 🥳❤️💚

By the way, don't mind that I've already finished my drawings. I just live in Central Asia, so it’s already Sunday here. Don't worry, GaaFuuWeek 2026 won’t be over until it’s Monday all around the world ┏⁠(⁠＾⁠0⁠＾⁠)⁠┛
