More of the reader poll! Which character would survive on a desert island? Which would you want by your side in a zombie apocalypse? Which would get killed first in a murder mystery novel? Find out what readers thought below!
(I will hopefully have the last of the poll results translated by the end of the weekend.)
[Saint Seiya x Mob Psycho 100 Crossover AU; made by me and @sodasexual]
After Tsubomi's tournament for the newly graduated Bronze Saints, the Galaxian War, goes terribly wrong, strange events start to happen. The tournament participants disappear one by one, and soon after Mob and the others start to be attacked by a sinister group of Silver Saints, the Scars. These soldiers' mission is to capture them, since the Sanctuary has acquired interest in turning these children into their new generation of henchmen.
While Mob has gained new friends midst this, resisting won't be easy. The Scars are stronger than anyone they have faced before. Ritsu mysteriously comes back with the Cygnus Cloth, claiming to have awakened his powers and used them to fight civilians. When he is kidnapped by Cetus Koyama, Mob, Teruki and Dimple join forces to invade the Scars' headquarters, knowing any error could end in brainwashing or death...
My piece for the @mp100auzine! I decided to make something for an Ageswap AU, particularly dealing with the 7th division Scars.
This was inspired by leothedino/shigayokagayama’s ageswap fic Show Me the World Outside. One aspect of the story involves the Scars as esper kids who used their powers to rise the ranks of their middle school gangs, only to be kidnapped and brainwashed by Claw. I thought it’d be fun to explore the time period before these events, where they’re all being little shits.
Enjoy, and thanks to the zine team for putting this together!
Extra concept dev stuff below the cut:
First, some refs I designed for the Scars themselves! I used the outfits and names of the five middle school gangs featured in Big Cleanup Arc: Mayo, Soy Sauce, Bean Paste, Miso and Noodle Soup Base(pictured left to right). Not pictured here, but included in the full piece, is a hapless ageswap Kijibayashi who just wants to make it through his shift at the arcade in peace.
Next, the Arcade! For the arcade cabinets and posters, some I just parodied arcade games into Mob Psycho versions, others I also referenced other aus from the zine (Spirit Ball Run, Joust, Youkai’s Lair, etc). Same with the assorted dimple plushies and claw machine items. The missing persons posters are referencing the events of SMTWO where members of the Super Five are taken by Claw as well.
My secret spirit gift for @thousand-winters! One of the prompts I got was the 7th division awkwardly hanging after World Domination arc, and I thought it was the perfect chance to illustrate my vision of a post-battle MobDonald’s run. Gotta refuel after all that, I’d imagine.
More character profiles! This time for the members of Scar Division 7 😘😘😘
Now I just need to do the Telepathy Club and I'll be all caught up on the profiles I initially skipped.
Highlights of the Division 7 profiles
- Reigen calling Muraki out on using the word kisama "like a cosplayer" totally took me out 😂 Come to think of it, the only time I ever hear kisama used is either in anime or at cosplay conventions, so Reigen's right on the money with that one, ahahaha (I think it's cute when people use it though :P)
- Matsuo's hobby...wow. He really is a f*cked-up little creep. That's probably why he's low-key my favorite in Division 7 😂😂😂
7th division... I love each of them too much, and it's been a long time since I drew them. I also wanted to take the opportunity to re-upload things here, most of my content is on my Twitter account, but I'm very embarrassed to say it directly here.
By the way, I incorporated most of them with the personal headcanons that I have of each one, I think it is more noticeable in Matsuo, Tekeuchi, Ishiguro and Miyagawa, I love Miyagawa uuuhhuhh
