Year End Awards

2023 Year End Awards

By on Sunday, December 31, 2023

A new thing here, but I’m trying out a sort of “wrapped” year end celebration. The data for these awards is based on the SubscribeStar calendar year, not the public one.

First up, the category for the most One-Shot appearances in 2024 which was a four-way tie this year:

Next is the category for the most Character Ask appearances in 2023, which was also a tie:

Next is the Comeback Performer of 2023. The award goes to whomever had the longest gap between their last appearance, and their return this year:

Next is the Male Newcomer award, which goes to the male character with the most appearances who debuted this year:

And the Female Newcomer, who had the most appearances out of the women who debuted this year:

And now, finally, the Male Performer of 2023, who is the male with the most appearances overall in 2024:

And the Female Performer of 2023, the female with the most overall appearances in 2024:

Hange Zoë Character Ask 1

By on Sunday, December 31, 2023

I don’t know if I’ve addressed it before, but there’s been a bit of a pattern of me answering this type of Ask (pairing up “science” gals with other “science” gals) with this position. I thought it’d be fun to do the same with Hange, and Thomas Edison came to mind as someone who might be closer to Hange’s level than a lot of the sci-fi mad scientist characters in the Studio.

Kento Nanami Character Ask 1

By on Wednesday, December 27, 2023

So, there are a few ladies I theoretically could have paired Nanami up with here. However, given what a serious guy he is, I don’t really picture him just jumping into a relationship with someone in the Studio. Honestly I don’t even know if I can picture him having a fling or anything, either… When I imagine Nanami developing a relationship with someone, it’s over a long period of time, seeing them repeatedly, like with the bakery girl from his flashback in the series. So, no longer than he’s been here, nothing like that could’ve blossomed. I thought it’d be cute to hint at some possible future relationships for him, though, and I also figured fans of his wouldn’t mind getting a better look at his body while he goes over his daily routine.

Attack on Titan

Scout Leaders

By on Tuesday, December 26, 2023

I wanted to do something with Attack on Titan’s Hange Zoë, and figured a little clean break for the leaders of the scouts might be fun. I have a few regrets about this pic, and almost didn’t finish it, but hopefully fans of this series will like it nonetheless.

Also, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month, for anyone who’s interested:

Studio Christmas Party Highlights 2023

By on Monday, December 25, 2023

Continuing the new tradition I started last year, for Christmas this year I want to take a little look at the annual Near Hentai Studios Christmas Party. A couple of these panels were ideas I had last year but couldn’t do, either because I ran out of space or because the character(s) I wanted to use hadn’t publicly debuted yet. Others are just ideas off the top of my head this year, and hopefully we got a fun mix of appeals. Also we get to see our 2023 Studio Santa again, and I immediately had this idea for how Scorpia would work in this role, which I think is fun. At any rate, I hope most of you can enjoy at least one of these panels, and I’m already looking forward to trying out more ideas next year!

Studio Santa #3 – Scorpia

By on Sunday, December 24, 2023

Every year I randomly select a member of the Studio to be our “Studio Santa”. This is the third year we’ve done this now, and this year’s winner was Scorpia from She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. Scorpia’s a real gem in that show, and I’m quite fond of her, but her unique anatomy has deterred me from doing more pics with her. I think she makes a good Santa, though, especially since her default color scheme already kinda fits the theme. We’ll see her again at the Studio Christmas Party, but for now I hope y’all will enjoy this little pin-up.
