Tapion and Minotia’s story in Wrath of the Dragon was always really sad. Both have been in the Studio for a good while now, but I never really did anything with them together. By now they’ve had plenty of time to acclimate to Studio culture, though, and I thought a little Ask featuring them might be fun.
Also, for anyone who’s interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:
I’ve been wanting to draw a pic of kid Trunks and Tapion (from the movie “Wrath of the Dragon”, or “Dragon Fist Explosion!! If Gokū Can’t Do It, Who Will”) for a while now. I went back and forth on a number of different ideas, including a comic (too many of those, however), before deciding to just to something simple and a little sweet. For those who haven’t seen the movie, Tapion is a warrior from another planet who forms a brotherly bond with Trunks, who reminds him of his own slain kid brother. The two have a very close relationship in the movie, and Tapion even gives Trunks his sword (heavily implied to be the same sword Future Trunks uses).
