The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for July 2018 is Mandalay of the Wild, Wild Pussycats in My Hero Academia. When deciding what to do with her, I went back and forth on either something with her young nephew, Kota, or her teammates Pixie-Bob and Ragdoll. In the end I decided to do both, leading to an unusually crowded picture for an NHML entry. Mandalay gets to be the center of attention, since she’s the featured lady. I enjoyed all four of these characters during their time on the show, and I wouldn’t mind returning to them some time in the future.
With this entry released, it’s now time to start collecting nominations for next month. The rules are pretty simple, everyone gets one nomination of any female character they’d like, so long as I haven’t drawn her in the past year. Preferably she’ll be someone I’ve never drawn, but if it’s been over a year since the last time then that’s fine. She also cannot be a previous NHML winner, even if her win was over a year ago and I haven’t drawn her again since. Also this month I’m adding that she can’t be from the same franchise as the current winner. Last month’s was also from My Hero Academia, and I’d just like to avoid having the NHML get too repetitive. I will compile a list of all the nominees (visible on the side bar of this site), and on the first of August I will use an online randomizer to randomly pick one name from the list to draw some time during the month.
Usually I say you can nominate by commenting below or using my cBox, but during the weekend I’m posting this I am out of town visiting friends and going to a convention. This means I won’t be on as much and there’s a chance I’ll miss nominations made in the cBox. You’re still allowed to use it, of course, but if you’re nominating during the weekend that this post went up then you might be better off using the comments. Cheers!

I’m not sure where I got it in my head that Mina Ashido from My Hero Academia was, like, a gymnast or something. Maybe it’s just ’cause her superhero outfit kinda looks like 80’s workout clothes, but at some point I just started assuming she’d be the flexible type. So when I saw a girl in this pose I thought it’d be a cute excuse to draw Mina again. I don’t do solo pics often, but hopefully I can do more with her and a partner soon. It’d be fun to try out more gymnast-style poses.

So the Near Hentai Monthly Lady for June is Pop☆Step (Kazuho Haneyama) from My Hero Academia’s spin-off manga series Vigilantes: Illegals. I don’t actually know much about this manga or character, truth be told. I know she’s like a pop idol (though her civilian identity is a quiet mousy girl), and I know her quirk is jumping real good. I paired her up with Koichi, the main character of their stories, who I think is also an All Might fanboy like Midoriya is (since he wears an All Might hoodie). Anyway, I think Pop☆Step is cute and I hope you guys like the pic.
Now, if you’d like to nominate an entry for next month’s NHML, it’s easy! Anyone can nominate a character, but you only get one nomination. The rules are simple, all you have to do is name the character you’d like to nominate in the comments here or in the cBox on the side of the site. Characters nominated cannot be any female I haven’t drawn recently (it needs to have been at least a year since I’ve drawn her last, though preferably she’ll be someone I’ve never drawn). Nominations also cannot be a previous NHML winner. If you’re not sure if your nomination meets these requirements, that’s okay, just post them and if they don’t qualify I’ll reply and let you know so you can nominate someone else. I’ll compile a list of all the nominated characters on the sidebar of this site, and on the first of July I’ll run the list through a randomizer to select one winner that I’ll draw sometime during the month. 🙂
So in My Hero Academia, Deku has this little notebook where he writes down information on the superpowers of the people around him for studying purposes. The kanji floating around him translate to something like “mutter” and crop up while he mutters to himself about what he’s writing/reading. My original plan was to have him scribbling down notes on Kirishima’s hardening ability, but then I realized that I’d accidentally drawn him reading instead of writing… I also didn’t have any idea what he’d actually be saying, so I decided to just have him reading the notebook instead. Probably he already has notes on Krisihima’s quirk and is just reviewing while studying the effect with his feet.
So this is the Hearing Hero “Earphone Jack”, Kyoka Jiro. She’s one of the students at U.A. High School in My Hero Academia, and one of the more prominent characters I haven’t drawn yet from that series. Honestly it’s just because most of the MHA content I’ve done has been decided by other people (either through commission or rewards), because Earphone Jack is one of my favorite girls in the series. I love the deadpan snarker types, especially with female characters, and I think her design is super cute. However, since I don’t really have any other characters I like to pair her with just yet, I decided I’d do this quick pic pairing her with an anon just so I could make sure I’ve drawn her at least once. I wouldn’t mind drawing her again sometime soon, possibly paired with another actual character, but we shall see.

Here is last month’s One-Shot comic, as selected by my supporters. I suspect this pairing was inspired in part by the memes and jokes around the idea that Deku’s hairstyle is like a cross between Gon and Killua’s (Killua’s style with Gon’s color). Regardless, the boys had a good time with him here, and mark another of Near Hentai’s top sluts off their checklist.
Also, here’s the tenth installment of my video series looking back at the superhero world and characters I built when I was younger:
This Character Ask was kinda interesting for me. I mulled over for a bit how I thought Deku would answer, because the truth is Shoto is one of those characters I can kinda see going either way with Midoriya. I haven’t really drawn the two of them together by themselves before, but I like the idea that they can both switch it up. Then I thought about when they fought each other, and the sort of relationship they have in the source material, and it hit upon me that in sex, like in superhero training, they could push each other by being similarly talented. That kinda led me to answering it this way, where neither one is really on top or bottom and they’re trying something new.
