Obviously any new demons coming into the Studio would not need to be dealt with in the same way as how they would in Demon Slayer. For Tanjiro and the others, training like this is probably more useful.
I don’t usually do Asks like this one, but something about this crossover clicked for me. Gohan has a few tenuous connections to the Gems, but mostly I just kinda vibed with him getting along with these two. It probably didn’t hurt that I got to draw Lapis and Peridot doing something together, which I’m in favor of.
So this one is a bit different than usual, as no one actually asked O.D. a question. However, when I read it, I immediately thought of them. Maybe that’s just due to my own biases and internalized stereotypes or whatever, but it’s very easy to picture them in charge of something like beautifying the talent. Since they rarely make on-screen appearances I’m sure it gives them something to do, too. Anyway, I’m not sure what this Subscriber had in mind for how this question might be answered, but it gives me the opportunity to flesh out a little behind the scenes lore in the Studio.
I don’t know if Bakugou’s beating the show-off allegations here. Neito relationship with the 1-A students feels like something that wouldn’t go away in the Studio to me. After all, here as well they’re still taking the spotlight far more than anyone from Neito’s class. I see his obsession with them as being a but more than just hatred, though, and we’re seeing a bit of that here.
For Yuki’s spotlight One-Shot, an element of the script I ended up not utilizing was a request for bi elements. I felt like it distracted from the focus on her, and I ended up just not doing it. I figured this Ask would be a good way to make good on that a bit, and I tried to use characters who wouldn’t have been out of place in that OS.
After Miles, of course the next partner I expected to see for both of these ladies is each other. They don’t have a lot of screentime together in the movies so far, but being the two most important ladies in Miles’ life makes you want to see them get along. I’ve seen a couple Asks here or there hinting at this pairing before, but things didn’t line up right to do it until now. So here’s a nice little scene with them, I hope y’all will enjoy.
I think Mello might be feeling more competitive than he’s letting on, but it’s hard to say. I didn’t have too much of an idea for this one, but Mello’s the only male character I was really into in Death Note and I’ve never been happy with the one drawing I’ve done of him before now. So I figured we could get an updated pic, with a nice view. I hope y’all like it.
So one thing I think I used to do a bit but try not to now is establish naughty stuff within the canon universe… So I don’t think there’s any evidence of Lin taking advantage of the power dynamic of an interrogation within The Legend of Korra, but I figured she might enjoy exploring that more now that she and Korra are in the Studio. Korra seems happy to oblige.
So while I played Drakengard a bit as a kid, I’ve never played a NieR game so if I misunderstood something about their androids I apologize. This answer makes sense to me, though. Mostly I thought this Ask might be a good chance to pair 9S up with one specific big-dicked guy in the Studio who seems like an obvious crossover partner for him. I don’t know if I’ll draw more of these two again, but I have a pretty good idea of what Gojo might think of 9S, and I think they’re a fun little pairing.
Also, for anyone interested, here’s the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:
I felt like the answer here was pretty direct, so I figured I could let Goku air his thoughts while giving him a chance for a rare GT appearance.
