It’s honestly an insane bit of coincidence that our April One-Shot winner ended up being this April O’Neil-focused script, but I’m here for it. April has a unique presence in the Studio, showing up in a lot of roles (such as the Spotlight Interviews or hosting Chi-Chi’s Fan Appreciation Tour) while only getting the spotlight shone on her occasionally. For the script here it was said April should be showing up in locations from the game, but I ended up not going that route as I had some other ideas I thought would be fun. So I put her with A-ko and Goku in the room where she MC’d A-ko’s ToL match with Krillin, had her crash an Ask that didn’t happen last month, and also made use of the couch seen in the aforementioned Spotlight Interviews. I did use a game location for the last panel, though. Also they asked for some dialogue, so I provided a bit.
I always worry about answering these types of Asks where the answer is “no.” Probably the asker was hoping to see Canute topping or dominating someone, but I felt like I had a good grasp for how he’s respond and this was a better fit I think. That’s not to say Canute can’t top or whatever, but I feel like this is the more honest answer.
So this is a new reward I’m testing out for my $20 tier on SubscribeStar. The idea is that Subscribers at this level or above can submit to me scenario ideas, little story-based scenes involving characters within the Studio (though they don’t have to be set in the Studio, like this one is). Each month I’ll choose one that interests me and do my interpretation of the concept. Since this is a test run, how people respond to the concept (both in and outside the tier) will help me decide if it’s something I want to try and keep doing every month.
For this idea I thought it’d be funny if Gojo was just annoying Nanami while he tried to relax with Tiana. That makes this one sort-of a sequel or epilogue to Closing Time. I thought maybe some folks might enjoy seeing this pairing return with a slight twist.
Giyu’s a character I don’t really know anything about, so it’s hard for me to write answers for him even if I think he makes a good bottom. Until I decided to answer this Ask I wasn’t even sure if he was a villain or not, and I still don’t really know anything about him other than recognizing what characters from other anime he reminds me of. I had this itch to have him paired up with, and mocked by, Geto and Gojo, though, just ’cause I think their energy would contrast well against his. Hopefully it’s a fun match-up for y’all, too.
Here’s the One-Shot comic for February 2023, using a script submitted by one of my Subscribers per usual. The idea here was framed as an inter-school competition of some sort between U.A. and Jujutsu Tech, though I don’t know if these scenes depict the contests themselves or just the participants having fun on their own during the event. Either way, there’s a lot of popular characters here, so I hope y’all will enjoy seeing them interact here.
