Here’s the final page to this little comic. Everybody gets to finish on someone’s face. Some of you may remember that this comic was commissioned to help cover expenses following a personal disaster, but the commission I sold was for ten pages. This marks the end of the first half of that commission, and sometime down the road I’ll begin working on another five-page comic that makes up the second half.
In Jujutsu Kaisen 0 Yuta and Toge have a cute friendship, so it’s not at all surprising to me some folks would ship them. I don’t use the 0 designs for either of them by default, though, so even if I’d use them for a regular pic of these two I didn’t here. I honestly didn’t have any ideas for what to have Yuta say here, but I figured a good workaround would be to have them kissing instead.
I wasn’t planning to do a Valentine’s Day pic for February’s Subscriber Scenario, but the more I thought about it the more I wanted to do this one. Not only does this bring in two minor JJK characters I’d like to have in the Studio but had no real plans for, but it also marks the first time I’ve drawn Nanami’s younger design. I kinda pictured this as a bit of a laid-back hangout, with Gojo, Geto and Shoko not needing as much ice-breaking as Nanami and Haibara.
I feel like I’ve seen Yuji paired in one way or another with almost every pink-haired anime character out there, but I feel like Bocchi ranks high among them. Partly just due to their series getting popular around the same time, I think, I’ve seen many JJK/Bocchi memes, edits, whatever. I wanted to do something with them here, and hopefully this dynamic between them will be fun for people.
I can’t be sure if this asker had anyone specific in mind when mentioning young female sorcerers. I have to assume they meant specifically jujutsu sorcerers, since any other kind of sorcerer would be pretty different from what Yuki knows about. I haven’t done anything with Maki and Nobara in a bit, though, so this was a good chance to do something fun with them.
So I’ve had this notion in my head for a while now that Kipo would make naturally good friends for both Yuji and Corey separately. I won’t get into the reasons for either, but I see them as relatively platonic pals who can hang out together (although I’d say the same for Yuji and Nobara, and they still fuck, so I’m not saying that’s off the table). Kipo’s obviously way too young for Corey, but I still think they’d make good pals. I’ve mentioned this in passing a few times, so I expect the anticipated answer was something along these lines.
This here’s a simple little Mini Commission featuring exactly what the title says!
I know production for this comic has slowed a bit, and I’m sorry for that. This match is one where I had a strong idea for how to start it, but for this stretch I have less of a specific idea for how things should go. Still, I’m enjoying these two together and I hope you’ll enjoy the rest of the match.
I’ve ended up drawing the Parks with Nanami a lot more than I thought I would when I first introduced them.
So here’s the One-Shot comic for March, which is built around Neon Genesis Evangelion. Each panel pairs one of the main pilots (and Kaworu) with a different character, all of which I assume have a connection in the eyes of the Subscriber who submitted this script. Most of them I see the connection, but I don’t really know enough about Invisigal from Dispatch to guess about what she has in common with Asuka. Maybe they’re just both tsunderes? At any rate, this comic is a debut for Shinji, Kaworu, Sephiroth and Invisigal, so I hope fans of any of them will be excited to see them in the Studio.
