Itsuna is striking a familiar pose today! Do you recognise it? The answer is under the "keep reading"

That's right, it's her pose from my 2016 game; Graceful Danmaku Festival But the original dialogue portrait was actually drawn in 2015 and debuted in the video of Demon of the Soulreaped Skies

2015 VS 2026, an 11 year difference After all these years, Itsuna is still Itsuna

The Itsuna Has Returned

Modern present day Itsuna has magenta coloured outlines

However, back in 2016 in my shmup game Graceful Danmaku Festival, she still had black outlines

I wanted to draw her "2016 self" again but with my current 2025 skills, so that's why she has black outlines here, it's in the past

2016 Itsuna went through a lot in that game, she was the main character there

If i ever remade that game, i think it'd be fun to also include some elements of the old artstyle, such as the black outlines, they feel like an important stylistic element of that era for me
