Mito Freecss Character Ask 2

In case it’s not clear by the hair, the girl being “shared” by Gon and Mito here is Caulifla. I’m not good at explaining why some pairings make sense to me, but I thought she’d be a fun one to stick in this role (also I haven’t drawn her in a real long time, despite thinking I’d be drawing her a lot when I first met her). I don’t have too much to say about this answer, I’m afraid, but I think the pic and text themselves about cover it. ^_^

Videl Character Ask 1

First off, I wanna say I think Videl’s expression turned out a bit angrier than I’d originally intended it. I do think the juxtaposition of her face with Goten’s is funny, though, so at least there’s that.
Videl’s a character I have a bit of trouble pinning down, but one element to her personality (at least in Z, I don’t recall seeing it much in GT or Super) is her tendency to get annoyed (it plays into the tsundere qualities mentioned in the question). So I worked with that to explain her tendency to switch between dominate and submissive. I think one way to frame it that she doesn’t mention is that she’s more dominate with female partners and more submissive with male ones, though I don’t think that’s a hard rule (I could totally picture her being more dominant/demanding with Gohan, for instance, while perhaps being more submissive with Chi-Chi or Bulma). I name dropped Pearl in her response because the original picture for this Ask was gonna be her and Pearl from Steven Universe, but the image wasn’t turning out like I’d hoped so I switched gears. The Miss Piiza reference is to an old pic I did of the two of them together (in their Super designs) that I always liked. I’ve of course also shown her being more in control with other girls in pics like the one I did of her and Marron not too long ago, and plan to do more along those lines in the future.

Son Gohan Character Ask 8

Somewhat surprisingly, this is Gohan’s first solo Ask since I switched from the old grey backgrounds. He’s appeared in other Asks, of course, but not a solo one in a while. So I had a lot of thoughts when it came to this Ask. I suspect the goal of this question was maybe to try and facilitate some visual representation of one of TFS’s many sex jokes, but I can’t be sure. I haven’t watched DBZ Abridged in years and don’t make any effort to keep up with the memes. Instead I figured this would be a good chance for Gohan to nerd out for a bit, though his answer here is rather abridged (no pun intended). It was also a good chance to slip in a little continuity nod with his tutoring of Maka Albarn from a previous Ask. I’d originally planned to show him reading a book while giving the answer, but when I was working out the pose I thought it’d be cuter to position the camera behind him. I still think he’s reading, but now it’s like the “camera” just walked into the room behind him and he’s taking a break from reading to give the answer.

Ash Ketchum Character Ask 7

I feel a little bad for not having, like, an interesting answer to this one. This supporter’s asked it a couple times in a row now, though, and I didn’t want to just ignore it. So, here’s a pretty basic answer. Sorry. ^_^;
I haven’t watched much of this stretch of the show, but I tried to play off my understanding of their dynamic. Ash is pretty straightforward and earnest while Clemont’s a bit more shy and happily embarrassed.

Ash Ketchum Character Ask 6

So this is an Ask I’ve neglected to answer for a couple months now (sorry WildBlue). I just couldn’t think of an interesting way to have Ash respond that felt, like… right. I believe this Ask is specifically trying to play into a fetish for being nude and being seen nude, but that’s kinda hard to work with, especially when all the Asks are answered in the nude anyway. So if Ash answered “no” (which felt right, honestly, though I also had trouble thinking of how to phrase it), then his answer would be super weird if he was also just standing their naked. When I did hit on his answer that he gives here, though, that felt really accurate for a response. It also gave me the chance to give some more interesting visuals, since he could kinda demonstrate the results of him being nude around his Pokémon. I went with Infernape as his partner since 1) I didn’t want to introduce a new ‘mon I hadn’t drawn yet and 2) While I’ve drawn Infernape, I haven’t drawn him with Ash despite Ash and his Infernape having a really cute dynamic in the Diamond and Pearl series. I think that covers all the explanation for this one, so please enjoy seeing Ash get his ass wrecked by a fire monkey.

Son Goten Character Ask 4

When I read this one, my first thought was, “Who would Goten consider his master?” No one really comes to mind. I mean, Piccolo trained him and Trunks a little with the fusion stuff, but I don’t think I really count that (plus I can’t recall those two interacting with him much outside of that one time). Similarly he’d spar sometimes with Chi-Chi as we see in one flashback, and he joined Videl in taking flying lessons from Gohan, but… none of those feel like the same sort of relationship as what made Goku/Gohan work for me in Special Training. I may not be positive what this person was hoping the response would be, but I think Goten’s confused reply here makes more sense for him.

Arella Character Ask 2

In the weeks approaching Mother’s Day, Raven found herself without any clue what to get her mother back in Azarath. Their relationship had been forever changed since she and Beast Boy had visited her a while back, but that only made her desire to get her mother something special even stronger. She had tried talking to Beast Boy about it, but he was predictably unhelpful. Then, with only a few days left before the maternal holiday, Raven and B.B. sat down for a movie night. They popped some popcorn and sat down to watch Requiem for a Dream, a movie Raven had been meaning to watch for a while, but Beast Boy had never heard of. They both had different reactions to the bulk of the film, but they clicked on one scene at the end. As Jennifer Connely found herself surrounded by screaming business men, throwing dollars onto her sticky, naked body, Raven looked over to Beast Boy. He looked back, a wry smile on his face as he’d had the same idea. Arella’s Mother’s Day gift was decided.

Vegeta Character Ask 2

First of all, let me apologize for Vegeta’s rudeness here. I don’t think he fully gets (or cares) that the supporters asking these questions keep the Near Hentai Studios open.
So I had the idea for how to handle this Ask pretty much immediately. Basically, I didn’t want Vegeta to choose, and I think it makes for a better visual anyway if he just refuses to and says “both”. It’s been a long time since I’ve drawn all three of these guys together, so I hope you all enjoy the little family reunion.
