I kind of had this funny idea for how to spin this Ask, I hope it comes across well. This is also a good excuse to draw Power’s super smart look, which I think is cute. Inosuke seemed like the perfect “student” for Power’s tutoring.
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.
You gotta wonder what kind of warriors Inosuke’s used to encountering with an answer like that.
I’m not personally attracted to or interested in Tanjiro, however I know that many people are and I don’t mind throwing those folks a bone every now and then. Normally with a question like this, I’d worry about the answer being too boring to work with. In this case, though, I thought his answer changing based on Inosuke’s presence in the Studio would be a fun twist. In fact, it’s possible he hadn’t even intended for Inosuke to be involved in the answering, he just demanded some ass during Tanjiro’s scheduled Ask time.
I’ve been having trouble with Asks lately. I don’t know if it’s just a burnout thing or what, but I’ve been struggling to engage with them in interesting or fun ways like I’d prefer. Until this issue resolves, though, I figured I might as well just stick to Asks I think people will enjoy the art to, so here’s Inosuke and Kirishima.
The premise for this One-Shot was to have Vegeta “tame” a few different “brat” characters around the Studio. Of course, each brat needs their own unique approach, but it looks like everyone’s enjoying themselves.
I don’t know how much Vegeta would immediately warm up to Inosuke. While I can see a dynamic between them working, I feel like Vegeta would initially be put off by Inosuke’s… Inosuke-ness. I kinda see him getting easily frustrated with him similar to how he does Goku, but even more so since Inosuke’s so much more aggressive in his stupidity (and is just overall more of a brat). I think he’d warm up to him, though, and maybe this Ask is a good first step in that.
I think the idea of “who cums first” battlefuck competitions probably has a limited appeal, though there are one or two figures in the Studio who I think are competitive enough that they’d engage in it. Gotta pass the time between shoots somehow, right?
So, when I picked these two for Mikasa’s Ask earlier, it was because I pictured them already becoming friends in the Studio (the idea being Mikasa approaching them at the same time). It’s just very easy for me to picture Yuji being endlessly amused by Inosuke’s antics, and I think their respective energies would play off each other well. I decided to not go into having them fucking in this Ask, I thought something like this felt more natural, but maybe somewhere down the line we’ll see that change.
Mikasa’s going to be having a lot of threesome action soon in Clean Break, so I thought she should get in a little practice. As fellow recent debuts, I thought Itadori and Inosuke would make for good practice partners for her.
