Is your rent due? Are you facing eviction? Is your dog ill? Cause why do you draw like that? Whew 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

i do it all for love of the game boss 🫡 but i don't have to worry about rent or eviction bc kafka asagiri keeps me locked in his basement 🙏 truly there are Ws in the Ls ❤️

Hello, how do you do the swirling thing in your art??? IS SO PRETTY (is okay if you don't wanna tell btw, is your technique after all)

hello! no i don't mind at all it's just the liquify tool and i don't claim any ownership of it!! if anything i really love to see other people use it too and what they do with it 🫶 i answered an ask about this on my main that goes a bit more in depth and also includes a little speedpaint of what my process with it looks like, here's a link to it!

the 'proof of concept / i think i'm gonna love you for a long long time' caption on your Soukoku piece-- is it a quote from something, or yours?? because it is eating my brain alive and i wanna quote it so so so so bad

hello! the term proof of concept comes from project or product development and is basically the process of proving that a project is feasible and has potential. that's kind of exactly what 15 is with proving that soukoku's partnership will work bc it was their trial run before they joined the mafia

and then the lyrics are linda ronstadt's long long time bc this was dazai saying i love you for the first time but not the last cough who said that within a day of meeting chuuya and bc of this whole proving their feasibility he's going to feel this way for..... a long long time LMAO. a proof of concept for his feelings too/slow realization that maybe there's something interesting enough to be worth sticking around for

and also i had just been listening to it when i was drawing and i tend to use lyrics from what i was listening to during the piece for captions a lot LMFAO it's a great song

Your chapter 109 art reminded of the song Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) by AURORA. Is that the vibe that you were aiming for?

hello! i wasn't familiar with the song but i listened and it suits the chapter/episode! i've been listening to a shit ton of from indian lakes lately tho and had these two virtually on back to back repeat the whole time i worked on it, i like their ambience a lot
