Persona

January ’24 One-Shot

Here is the first One-Shot comic of 2024. The premise of this one is to bring in friends of former NHML winners. Obviously there’ve been a lot of NHML winners, but the Subscriber who submitted this script picked four they liked. Our first panel has Ryō Kurokiba and Alice Nakiri from Food Wars, the only one of these I’ve seen, representing Ikumi Mito from the May 2019 NHML. The second panel has Monaca Towa and Kotoko Utsugi from Danganronpa, representing Toko Fukawa from the June 2022 NHML. The third panel has Ren Amamiya, Makoto Niijima and Haru Okumura from Persona 5, representing Sae Niijima from the November 2018 NHML. The final panel features Balalaika, Roberta and Eda from Black Lagoon, all three women who had caught my eye but I never did anything with, representing Revy from the November 2016 NHML.

May ’23 One-Shot

Here is the One-Shot comic for May! As always, this script was submitted by one of my SubscribeStar supporters. The premise of this comic was isolated/nerdy characters putting on webcam shows, although I wasn’t really confident about conveying that premise in this format so I didn’t focus on it. Instead I just kind of went with what felt right to me for each pairing, and I hope y’all will like the results. On the first panel is Futaba from Persona 5, second has Tomoko and her brother from WataMote, third is the main couple from Outbreak Company, and finally we have Ryuunosuke and Rita, the unlikely couple from Sakurasou.

Yukiko Amagi Character Ask 1

I felt like the answer to this one was maybe a little too obvious, but it’s not often I get Patreon Asks that aren’t from the same person so I wanted to try and squeeze this one in this month. Also, I thought it’d be nice to let Yukiko and Chie make a return appearance after their NHML debut. To spice it up, I thought it’d be kinda funny if Yukiko’s answer was muffled by Chie’s pussy, and Chie had to try and (embarrassedly) translate.

Chie Satonaka NHML

The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for December 2020 is Chie Satonaka from Persona 4. Despite drawing the persona series a handful of times through commissions (and once, another NHML) in the past, I don’t really know much about the characters or anything. When I went to look up what Chie’s deal is for this pic, I saw a lot of art (both official and fan-made) of her with Yukiko Amagi. I get the impression that they’re pretty close, so I decided a nice little yuri pic would suffice. Yukiko seems both nervous and entranced by how Chie’s asshole swallows her fingers. I wonder if she’s craving a taste.

With this post, NHML nominations for the month of January are now open. For those who don’t know, I’ll run down the rules real quick. Nominations are limited to one per person. You can nominate any female character you want, provided I have not drawn her within the past calendar year (though I prefer characters I’ve never drawn, period). Previous NHML winners are not eligible for a second time. Nominees must also not be from the same franchise as this month’s winner, which in this case includes all of the Persona games (Though other Megami Tensei characters are probably fine, if that’s the route you want to go). If you violate any of those rules, I’ll let you know, and you can nominate someone else. I know it can be hard to keep track of these things. You may nominate by either commenting in the cBox, commenting on this post, or emailing me (Nearphotison2010@yahoo.com). I’ll compile a list of the nominees in the sidebar of this site, and then on January 1st I will use a randomizer to select the winning character who I will proceed to draw sometime that month. I look forward to seeing who you all nominate this time around!

Sae Niijima NHML

The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for November 2018 is Sae Niijima from Persona 5. I haven’t played Persona 5, but I do know several of the main characters. I don’t know Sae, though, but I like her look. A lot of the images I got while looking her up had her in a business suit, which is a look I love on women. I very nearly did a fully clothed CFNM pic of her blowing a bunch of dicks in her suit, but I decided that since this might well be the only time I draw her, I should show some skin. I do still have the preliminary planning for that other idea, though, and maybe some day I’ll get the itch to go back to it and do that, too. I don’t know, but at the very least we have this fun little gangbang for her.

With this post, NHML nominations for the month of December are now open. For those who don’t know, I’ll run down the rules real quick. Nominations are limited to one per person, and if I catch anyone trying to do multiple nominations by changing their names I will remove all of that person’s nominations. You can nominate any female character you want, provided I have not drawn her within the past calendar year (though I prefer characters I’ve never drawn, period). Previous NHML winners are not eligible for a second time. Nominees must also not be from the same franchise as this month’s winner, which in this case includes all of the Persona games (Though other Megami Tensei characters are probably fine, if that’s the route you want to go). If you violate any of those rules, I’ll let you know, and you can nominate someone else. I know it can be hard to keep track of those things. You may nominate by either commenting in the cBox, commenting to this post, or emailing me (Nearphotison2010@yahoo.com). I’ll compile a list of the nominees on the sidebar of this site, and then on December 1st I will use a randomizer to select the winning character who I will proceed to draw sometime that month. I look forward to seeing who you all nominate this time around!

Carnal Kingdom – Ann Takamaki For Sale

So this is something new from one of my commission clients. Some of you may have seen the Carnal Kingdom concept show up in other artists’ work, as it’s been commissioned out to a number of different talented folks. You’ll be seeing it from me here and there now, it seems, and this is the first outing.
The Carnal Kingdom, as I understand it, is a demonic world that is home to an organization called Surial and Co., which is a multiverse slave trade company that plucks people out of their own universes for the purpose of turning them into sex slaves and selling them off to the highest bidder. This particular series focuses on a two-part story for each character. This here is part one, where we see Ann Takamaki of Persona 5 after she’s been trained and broken in, up for sale on the Surial and Co. market. Part two will likely come next month, where we’ll get to see who bought her and how they’re enjoying her.

Persona 5 Commission

Here’s a commission I recently finished, one of the ones off the “Fire Sale” list. Persona 5 did not exist when this commission was bought (it was originally this same thing, just different characters), but when I contacted the client he wanted to see these four instead. This one took longer than it should have, possibly because it was four characters…? I honestly don’t know. I don’t know why it took as long as it did. Hopefully you guys like it, though. These characters are all from Persona 5, the most recent game in the series. I haven’t played this game myself, but I’ve watched others play it some and it seems good. Like the other games there’s some attractive, if a bit generic, characters to pull from.

Ura Junes Colored Page

So against my better judgment I recently agreed to color a manga page on commission (I say “against my better judgment” because I really shouldn’t be taking any extra commissions right now). The page in question is from a doujin called “Ura Junes” by Hibakichi and Kisaragi Yuki. This particular page is by Hibakichi (I believe, I’m not 100% certain) and features Yu Narukami, Yosuke Hanamura and Teddie from Persona 4. I’ve drawn these characters on commission before (from the same client), but in this case I only provided the colors.

Attached below is the original page for those who’d like to see it untouched.

Persona 4

Let me start off by saying I’m not happy with this picture. For some reason it never really clicked for me, and there were additional problems while working on it, but in the end the client was happy with it and that’s what counts. I’m still posting it here for those of you who will also like it like he did, because my taste isn’t the beginning and end of what people can enjoy. 🙂

I don’t want to get into the issues I had with this pic, in case doing so might spoil it for people who do like it, but I will say I like some of the characters used. I’ve never played a Persona game, but I’m pretty familiar with the Shin Megami Tensei brand and I typically like the characters. P4 has several female characters I really dig, but I also like Teddie (the blonde whose face is obscured) quite a bit, and wouldn’t mind doing a more concentrated picture some time featuring him. Kou (the bluish-grey-haired one with his feet sticking out) was also pretty cute in the anime episode focused on him, but I don’t know if I’ll ever draw him again. I don’t really care for the other two guys in this pic, though.

The real good news, though, is that this is the last of the commissions I had lined up. I can now focus more on my own things, as commissions will remain closed for a while yet. I still have some that will be coming around when the month rolls over, and I also I have a few special arrangements with friends that might crop up. Besides those, though, I’m looking forward to focusing on my comics, pumping out a few more Near Pokédex entries alongside a bunch more standalone pics. I’m really excited to getting back to deciding my own fate for a while until I’m desperate for money again.
