art tag: #duck scribbles
hi my favorite gay ship artist I hope everything is going well you are super awesome and don’t let anyone ever make you think you are lower than that
I’ve always loved and always will love midoyuzu and your art throughout the years has meant so much to me and made me so happy. It makes me happier to see how you’ve improved over time and see what even small details have changed in your artstyle. I’m really glad I got to experience it
And I don’t really know how big of a role I played in your Enstars experience but you played a big one in mine since you know. Midoyuzu. But I will always enjoy all art of yours, midoyuzu or not
you are so kind and have always answered these things of mine despite some of them being kind of stupid LOL but I appreciate it especially on the harder days when I just kind of need someone to simply talk to and stuff
Please never change and keep doing what you are doing. I will always support you and your art lad……… heart heart heart!!!
aw :'> id definitely be lying for sure if i said everything was going just swimmingly for me lately but thank you very much for your kind words! and thank you for still keeping up with my art as well even if my interests are pretty all over the place as of late haha.... i know its relatively standard for tumblr as opposed to twitter and such but it still makes me a little happy to see users i recognize from other fandoms still interacting with different than usual posts kjsdghdshdsgh. thanks always 🔥🔥🔥
mdyz is always going to mean a lot to me for sure and that still hasnt changed, id like to doodle em again sometime beyond margin scribbles but drawing in general has been the hardest thing for me this past month or so 😔 its probably the burnout LOL its not as if im low on ideas for drawings in general but putting pen to tablet has been just the same amount of agonizing as Not doing so so i really cant win here lmao
im glad i can have that much of an impact on you though!! thank you very much for enjoying my very awfully indulgent doodles all this time i still think back to it and get horrified with just how much i did KJGDHSDHG i think this kind of investment should be kept to once in a decade its. Scary. to me 😭 i wouldnt say i have any regrets though since i met and got closer to a lot of cool people from it!
all in all hope you have a better day than mine o7 as well to anyone else reading this!
considering it'll be pride month soon, for the occasion heres a bunch of more manga i really love i think everyone should check out 👊 a couple of these i don't see anyone talk about too often so i'd love it if more people give em a shot :'> (though i mostly read yuri so youll find a lot of these here kjgsdhds)

more rambling under the cut cause id discovered in the process of making this post theres apparently a tag limit sdkjgsdkhgd
for some of these picks theres a criteria i had in mind being more ambiguous intimate relationships that rly scratch the itch in my aroace brain or titles with established queer characters beyond just the "oh i just happen to like this person because its this person not because of my orientation" and whatnot because theres plenty of those, or are written by queer authors ! (though for a couple its also just me really wishing more people read it so 😭)
im not the greatest at explaining these premises but i will. do what i can LOL
kemutai hanashi is a suuuuuper great slice of life, the mcs' unlabeled relationship makes my aroace ass way too happy. two adult men reconnect after graduation and stick together and its a really nice story overall on understanding (or the inability to) each other and how the latter can still be okay while breaking free of specific labels when it comes to relationships. gorgeous art here too
bakajo 26ji is a really fun one about two women who were former high school classmates that run away to vietnam together after one of them murders the other's abusive husband!!! its such a funny one ive been loving it a lot
kohayoi is one of my favorite hyperspecific cooking adjacent manga (its abt craft beer!) with rly great characters and dynamics ! the mc is really aro lesbian and the author is an active lgbtqia+ supporter so i cant recommend it enough o7 (though tls are pretty behind but understandable i will wait forever if i must
concafe is one of my favorite and unfortunately axed yuris.... an aspiring designer college student stumbles into a concept cafe based around haute couture and starts working there as well as getting close to all the other girls there!!! polyamory is alive and well and the subtle trans rep is written w a lot of care and clear intent i liked it a lot
ive talked abt oshicap before but a fujoshi gyaru and a yuri fanboy become friends in order to mutually support each others' gay crushes!! its so adorable theres only one chap translated rn (TS by yours truly) but i hope more ppl check it out.....
nekuyan/crossplay love ive also talked about plenty but essentially a gloomy otaku working in a maid cafe and a delinquent who always visits mutually pine as girls not knowing they couldn't stand each other as guys its one of my favorite manga ever
aki wa haru to gohan wo tabetai is super cute... ok i actually like cooking manga a lot so this one was a super fun read, college roommate life with a shared love of food is always a nice theme
i actually knew this author from a yuri oneshot of hers and had no idea she went on to write a BL and i liked it a lot more than i thought kjsdgkjsdhgsdh. two men from the same brass band in a FWB relationship start catching feelings and you can guess the rest!! i really love their relationship in the subsequent volumes as well theyre a super fun duo
sasamiya and hirakagi! definitely my favorite BLs, most have probably heard of this one already but theyre both really sweet senior-junior relationships, sasamiya's stemming from miyano's love of BL (though his initial avoidance on becoming part of one himself is real fun in the beginning) as sasaki gradually starts to fall for him too, and hirakagi's as a roommates to best friends to lovers story. personally i really love how hrkg is done, esp reading it from an acespec hirano perspective watching them slowly meet in the middle is the best... i love them.....
kyou wa mada futsuu ni narenai is super lovely and kinda in a similar theme to kemuhana's has that ambiguity that i really love to read in relationships in fiction ^^
amayo no tsuki's mc, very much a lesbian and kind of tortured about it meets a HoH girl on her way to lessons who she finds to be her classmate soon after. this one's a pretty long slow burn (12 volumes as of right now!) but watching them get closer has been everything to me, it depicts the love interest's disability pretty well too!
futaribeya is a pretty wholesome slice of life about two girls growing closer as roommates and best friends, and follows along the years they spent after high school as roommates into college and employment after! one thing abt yukikos works i really love (and in yuri overall) is less the ideal "romance" but seeing how characters gravitate towards each other and want to just be together and this one was a really cute one at that
in wicked spot, a "witch" escapes her isolated mountain life to live as free as possible in human society. the mc is unabashedly living her best life and getting all the attention she desires, shes a delight to read <3 and eventually gets mixed up with a regular girl as other "witches" come onto the scene. absolutely rad character design either i love sal jiang everybody go read more sal jiang
maitsuki niwatsuki ooyatsuki has the mc, a manga editor fresh from being dumped by her most recent girlfriend, setting out to enjoy her single life only to get entangled with her new "live-in landlord" in her new house that also happens to be a former idol! very silly adult yuri
kimi ga shinu made koi wo shitai tells of a school that trains orphans in magic in order to send them off as child soldiers in a centuries-long war against an unknown country. in an incredibly unfair world all these girls find a way to live and love regardless and it breaks my heart every time i read (its another favorite of mine)
itsuka kazoku ni naru made is a lovely story about a widower and his coworker very much in love with him growing close! together with the former's son its a very cute story, i love a bunch of fujitobis works but this one is definitely up there as well
ive talked about aizawa san but i will talk abt it here again. girl falls for her dead idol classmate whos currently haunting her school and classroom and watching the mysteries slowly pile up surrounding the titular aizawa's death has been utterly fascinating i adore this manga greatly
and there you have it!! if one or two of them pique your interest thatd mean a lot to me o7
recovered one of the first drawings id ever made of them for a quick warmup before locking back in for classwork
havent been feeling the greatest drawing-wise as of late honestly but going through older doodles does make me feel a bit more reassured somewhat... it isnt really by much but i guess i can say i improved a little bit kjdshgdhgd

currently really torn between the "i want the author to have as little stress as possible working on and take her time drawing out the ideal story she wants to put out so i can and will wait as long as i have to" and "if i dont get even a little crumb of my idiots im going to start biting wood" in current nekuyan environment
do you know how hard a manga has to grip me before id inevitably ended up 1) saving raws 2) helping scanlate it 3) saving every single translated volume onto my laptop 4) incessantly drawing fanart like my life is on the line for the 50 or so other people in this same boat
