after like over 5 hours. behold. my fan units

clearly i got a little lazy near the end lmao

a little bit of info abt them below the cut! (i have lots more fun details but this doesn’t need to be an essay)

first group: KUDATOMO (“kudamono” / “tomodachi,” pun on “fruit” and “friend)

this is the group i have the most nailed down about. they are independent vtubers! their sekai is orchard sekai & their VS are miku, gumi, teto, IA, tei, and nana! from left to right—

hinako riyona is the unit lead and she is bright, outgoing, but quick to anger and assumption. still, she has a huge heart. (pose ref: airi)

yukimura kiku is a driven and incredibly caring girl who won’t stop until the work is done, but she speaks bluntly, and she’s done things in her past she never wants to speak of again. (pose ref: an)

that’s orchard sekai miku (pose ref: saki)

rinzaki yae is a talented writer with a tendency to escape into her storybooks. she’s very nervous about like everything. she’s also half korean! (pose ref: mafuyu)

hinomori saba is shiho’s twin and, no matter how hard she tries, she can never seem to live up to her sisters. she’s skilled with social media tactics, and she brings joy and light to every room. (pose ref: emu)

second group: mirai no merodii (melody of the future)

i’ve been working this group essentially all day and, though i don’t have everything figured out, i’m getting there. maybe. they are a performance group that originated as cosplay idols who perform at conventions— now, they play their own characters and tell their own stories through every show. costumes, storylines, and everything in between are all handmade. their sekai is stained glass sekai & their VS are miku, luka, seeu, flower, and hime and mikoto!

there is no real unit lead, but for game purposes, katsukawa yukina can be the leader. she works with her twin sister shiori to write the stories. (pose ref: ena & haruka)

yoshioka suisei does most of the crafts and costuming! she’s also croatian. (pose ref: minori)

shiina azimova ilya is a russian immigrant, whose name was loanworded to iriya when she arrived. she handles a lot of the more technical stuff — bookings, events, etc. (pose ref: honami)

third group: CIRCUIT 16

i don’t know what’s going on with these guys any more than you do. they’re kinda… secretive? underground, tech-y, anonymous… idk. ZUTOMAYO-esque, maybe. their sekai is arcade sekai and i don’t have any idea who their VS are yet lmao

fukumura mayu is the unit lead! she’s also kiku’s younger cousin. they have a lot of lore. mayu also has a ton of cameos in tcom if you’re familiar with that (pose ref: shiho)

yoshioka sora is suisei’s brother and at this point i’m forgetting if i decided croatian or indian for the two of them. EITHER WAY. idk anything about him yet but i guess he’s probably cool (pose ref: akito)

kotetsu ryōsuke is also here (pose ref: nene)

“boy 3” is uhhh. transgender and mexican. that’s literally all i’ve got (pose ref: rin)

also side note finding costumes for these guys was SO HARD. kdtm and miramero have been super easy for me to conceptualise and sketch costumes for (usually starting with an idea and then referencing in-game outfits—) but idk if it’s the men or proseka’s lack of good alt/scene clothes but MAN. this has been rough lmao

all these are their brand new world outfits! i have different concepts for release :]

opening & first two episodes of the kudatomo main story are posted on my ao3!

[stxrfuxker]

i’m gonna post the kdtm opening story soon but i figured i’d give a little context before i did that :]

kudatomo is a group of virtual youtubers. in their opening story, they’re working under a corporation as “kosmi-kutie!” which is potentially the dumbest thing i’ve ever come up with but i fear it’s accurate to life.

throughout their main story, they come together to realise they all share the same feelings of unhappiness and frustration with their company, but they want to keep creating, and they want to stick together. so they break from the agency and go indie together.

their sekai is “orchard sekai” because of the whole fruit thing, and the virtual singers are miku & gumi (main), IA, teto, sukone tei, and macne nana!

enjoy the story :D
