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.
The winning One-Shot script this month features a smattering of characters from The Legend of Korra and Attack on Titan. The script called for their late-season designs, which I hope I was able to do (especially for TLoK, aside from Korra herself I don’t really know how anyone’s designs change). It also features the debuts of Sasha and Kuvira, although in both cases I feel I’ll be using different looks for them if they show up again.
Here is the One-Shot comic for the month of November, as always written by one of my SubscribeStar supporters. The idea behind this one was basically to pair up a bunch of different MILF characters in the Studio, although a couple are moms we never really get to see mothering. We don’t see full yuri One-Shot winners very often. There’s some fun and different characters here, I think, and hopefully MILF fans will be able to enjoy this one.
Like last month’s winner, this One-Shot script is a sequel of sorts to a previous one. In that one we saw a variety of characters in the Studio gym, but this time we focus just on A-ko as she pairs with a handful of different characters. Since this was the October script, it was specified that it should be “after hours”, hence the darker color palette than last time.
It’s funny, but we’re only one month off from this being a year separated from the One-Shot it’s a sequel to. In that one we saw Trunks and Goten invading the U.A. dorms and having fun with several students, but this time the same Subscriber has Bra and Pan doing the invasion. I hope you all enjoy seeing these two make their way around the dorms!
Here is the One-Shot comic for August of 2023! The script for this comic puts together several pairings that this Subscriber has been trying to make happen in Character Asks, but usually in ways I didn’t really feel I could make work in that format. They finally get to see some of their crossover ideas come to life here, though, and I hope y’all will enjoy the results.
The winning One-Shot script for July of 2023 was submitted by a Subscriber who’s always pushing for more Fairy Tail and FT-adjacent content, so naturally the script itself is full of Fairy Tail and Edens Zero characters. I don’t really know anything about any of these characters, but hopefully I did them justice for fans of these series. All of these characters are new to the Studio, too, so I guess that’s kind of exciting for anyone who wanted to see more FT or EZ from me. A lot of the characters from these shows, especially the ladies, tend to sport multiple looks throughout the series. I don’t always know which looks are preferred by fans, or are the more iconic designs or whatever, but I tried to go with the designs I saw the most in my Google searches or that I personally liked.
The winning Subscriber-submitted script for June 2023 features Raven, Starfire and Terra having some fun with our boys Goten and Trunks. This one’s pretty straightforward, and kinda feels like the old One-Shots from early in my Patreon career. I hope y’all will enjoy it, I feel like it’s been a minute since we’ve seen Goten and Trunks tag teaming some folks (or since we’ve seen these three Titans together).
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.
