SUI

I actually started crying while drawing this… Mido…

The original version has him sitting down, but when I tilted the image, it somehow started looking like he was walking beside you and talking to you. I love it so much.

Over the past few months, I’ve found myself wondering again and again whether my feelings for Mido himself have come to outweigh my feelings for the ship as a whole.

I want Mido to be loved by Namikawa.

But even more than that, I want him to be seen and loved as Mido, even outside of his relationship with Namikawa.

And yet, no matter where I look, it’s so hard to find people who came to love Mido for who he is.

I wonder how many people only noticed Mido—the handsome one in the Yotsuba group—because they wanted someone to ship with Namikawa.

Before I knew it, this strange urge to protect him, and this growing favoritism toward him, had only become stronger…

I want to see more love directed at Mido himself.

May there be more of it from now on.

Please.

I feel so much lighter now. Months of tormenting and punishing myself are finally over.

Congratulate me!

So many doujinshi are scanned, digitized, and uploaded online in bulk. Honestly, it makes me deeply uncomfortable. Calling it “a labor of love” or saying it’s “non-profit” doesn’t change what it is—it still violates the rights and boundaries of the people who created those books.

(completely unrelated to the picture, I just like it)

Still practicing… I feel like I’ve improved a little since last time. Hope I’m not imagining it lol.

When the sun is setting and the evening light hits your window, you can paint on the glass with water.

But it’s hard to control— just drew a really silly little chibi.

And I unexpectedly realized that fem!Takahashi would actually be pretty popular.

A curvy woman… very Marilyn Monroe type, honestly.
