happy OCtober! don’t be afraid i started to check more on other oc creators thanks to mel. i’m surprised you are following me?? anyway, yui is my favorite at the moment. yui nation rise 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️ hiyori give him to me
Hi Charlotte! Thank you for checking out my yakuza blorbos 🥹🥹💖✨ Also I saw that Yui is your favorite of them so far sjdhfhsvfsvd Don't worry, Hiyori would happily give him to you! No returns/refunds policy tho! (and yess!! iirc, i saw u interacting with mel and followed, bc yippeee another oc lover!! but im usually a coward at interactions, so ty for interacting first!)
Laughing so hard bc rip bozo to my bro Sou (oc co-creator), because we always make fun of Yui and bully him/call him ugly but then I'm also just a sweaty otome gamer who always draws ikemen so I always get smth like "Why did you draw him so good, he's supposed to be ugly?!" 🤣🤣🤣
I wanna reply to ur tags but I'll just put it all here, if you don't mind hjvfsgfgs
Kurumi's image color is initially just Crimson Red, but we eventually decided to add pink (because red clashes with Enma's, another "boss" character), so she has two colors now. Though we haven't edited it in her wiki yet because we don't know what exact shade of pink to use yet.
Kana reminding you of Ach/eron, feels so right tbh hahaha Two of her early inspirations are actually Rai/den Sho/gun (Gen/shin) and Rai/den Mei (Hon/kai). One of her prominent voice claims were also Sawashi/ro Miyu/ki! So you're very on-point!! hehe 😆😆
I'm surprised there isn't much presence of yakuza families in canon considering that the story took place in Ja/pan! So, I'm so happy to see that @melonchanverse also has yakuza family ocs!! 😭💖✨ *holds yakuza neighbors au in my hands softly* I will draw this someday, soon.
And yes, Yui sees them as both bestfriends and younger siblings. On the other hand, Kana also sees him as both a bestfriend and a younger sibling. On the other other hand, Kurumi is the one true imouto of the trio.
give me your favorite manga or anime of all time. NOW. like, the ones who changed you as a person in some way. if you are okay with questions like that!
Hi Charlotte!! Happy to see you around and in my inbox! Lemme answer this while I can. ♡
Warning: Super long! So it'll be under the cut...sorry I don't know what shutting the fuck up means! Is it a food?
Digimon Adventure: I watched this when it aired in my country in 1999! I was 7 and was hooked instantly. It helped me through dark times and kept me motivated, for that Digimon Adventure will always mean a lot to me! I'm still a Digimon fan and have been trying to get back into it (it's hard because it's so important to me that I'm stubborn tho lol) though recently I found out Junie is also a big fan so maybe I can take that plunge! :')
Sailor Moon: again I was obsessed with it since I was a little girl! I was a major Sailor Moon fan, and I remember actually having a figurine of her! I lost it as a child. I remember how I was strapped in the car seat when it fell down where your feet rest, but at my age I was too short to reach it so I cried for it and my dad said he'll get it for me! Surprisingly he couldn't find it? The car moving must have jostled it. I still think about it....despite that I think SM is BAD. LMAO like it's super badly written and I despise Usagi. However I adore the other scouts (ngl Haruka is also veering into annoying to me...) still the concept is so fun! And it's hella assthetic so I reblog and re-tweet it like mad. Lmao
Vision of Escaflowne: I LOVE THIS SERIES SOOOOO MUCH. It still holds up for me! I was obsessed as a kid and I watched it again during my second trip to Somaliland while I lay in agony lol (I was 23!) Like the show hits! I watched it...4 times? And I want to again! There are story beats that still stick with me. The art style can get some getting used to (it's the noses...) but tbh it influenced my style, haha. The movie looks better but the changes I heard made as made me vow to never watch it. 😒
Inuyasha: this was the first series I watched as a kid where I was like "this is foreign...this is...ANIME!" Because unlike the other anime they didn't give the characters English names nor did they make the openings and endings English! I'm actually a Rumiko Takahashi fan! This is how I got into her works but also again...like omfg it's embarrassing and not really good, like damn. She has this thing about toxic relationships lmao (except Maison Ikkou if iirc? That was just sweet!) I always have Hot Takes about Inuyasha but it'll always be a part of me.
Saiyuki: the first time I watched Saiyuki it was the movie, it was the middle of the night and I used my parents money to buy it on pay per view WITHOUT asking permission!! I fell in love instantly but was so scared and played dumb when they got the bill and was like "who paid for that!?" It took some time for me to properly get into it, it's dark and can be triggering but I really fell in love with the cast and story! It's very intriguing.
Bleach: it really spoke to me as a kid who's family has spooky ooky shit in its bg hahaha. That and how Ichigo is! As an older sister who'd do anything for my siblings and pushes themselves too far for that...Ichigo is just very relatable. Lol
Katekyo Hitman Reborn: I believe I was 16-17 when I finally got into Reborn? I knew of it vaguely because my two older brothers were into it before me! I don't remember how I started reading it (I have never properly watched the anime), but I did and got obsessed! I was all over this website called Quizilla devouring KHR works! This is how I stumbled onto Jojo! She wrote about the Varia, and I messaged her to gush about it. It's been 15-16 years since then!! I honestly think I'm very attached to KHR because of that. Sure there are fun concepts and I love how I can rotate the characters in my mind but damn it's...a mess. High key embarrassed when I admit to liking it to non-fans. 😭it's very "please don't think badly of me, I beg!!" LMAO
Princess Tutu: ABSOLUTE BANGER! I watched it 3 times and imma watch it more in the future, I know this. If you haven't watched it, you should!
Kingdom Hearts: hehe! Adding this because it has a manga that I've read parts of! Anyway this is so influential to me in art and storytelling...the latter is not good..it's so convoluted but what can I say? I'm a big Nomura Tetsuya fan!! He really inspires me and thus kh is super important....also fun fact as a child I was scared of the heartless and immediately stopped playing and didn't pick it up again for years lmao it's these little guys:
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: what if I told you I only got into this series because it has Jojo's name in it...still! I became obsessed. I love Araki's style of storytelling and art. It pushes me to be true to my own style, no matter what! It's definitely an influence for me.
Now I find them kinda cute...!
Card Captor Sakura: This is the series that got me super into Clamp. I'm adding this because despite the issues I have with their work, it influenced me greatly! It's the reason I'm working on my own universe the way I do. I also want to have a large cast of characters that appear in each other's works. :')
Golden Kamuy: No lie I think this is the tightest written weekly shounen manga ever. No if ands or buts. I think it's wonderfully written and incredibly compelling! It's also very silly? Reminded me of Gintama with how outrageous it could get 😭 still the core themes of the story are about imperialism and colonization so it's also got a lot of serious topics. If you get into it JUST READ THE MANGA! THE ANIME IS SO POORELY PRODUCED.
Dungeon Meshi: 🥰🥺😃😀😨😰 decipher this.
For all of these the plan is to buy either the DVDs or all the manga/light novels!!
