How are you? This is E. 🎐 iyashikei reflections (mostly Aria and YKK) and moments of respite from the busy Tokyo life.

waterless-gleam's first anniversary!

One year ago, on that very hot summer day... I decided to start this blog. I hope I'll be able to share more Aria and iyashikei things from now on!

Aria is such a precious manga I wanted to draw Akari pretty much immediately since I read it. This one was a hard piece, but I'm glad I went in that direction!

"Ame to Kimi to" (with you and the rain) is a wonderful anime from this season. I've been a fan of the manga for a long time, and it's so nice to see that the animation is delivering!

Auguri, buon anno!

Happy 2025!

It's been 5ish months since I started this blog, but I'm glad I did. Thanks to it, I was able to connect to nice and kind people, and share about ARIA and other things iyashikei. If you're reading this, thank you so much, this post is for you too! (笑)
