I did my best but it’s been so long since I drew them that they look kind of weird orz

Lord von Bielefeld, who passed him as he left, frowned and followed Saralegui with his gaze. He looks like he wants to ask why he's in such high spirits at the start of such a serious voyage.

“Günter asked me to give this jacket to you. It might not fit too well, though.”

Wolfram is also still wearing a kitchen apprentice’s clothes, but there’s a thick OFF-WHITE jacket hanging on his arm. Be it the sleeves, the hems, or the decorations, everything is supersized.

“Oh, that's alright. Just now Saralegui lent me his cloak. Besides our heights aren’t that different so the size should be a better fit than Günter’s clothes… Wanna see?”

Wolfram spreads the cloak out and scrutinizes it closely, even bringing it to his nose like a little rabbit sniffing at the fabric.

“Hmm.”

“Wolf… What are you sniffing it for? Saralegui did take a bath.”

“I'll use this one.”

“Eh, why? He purposely lent this to me, you know?”

I look the third son from top to bottom. He has smooth cheeks that have never gotten tan and EMERALD GREEN eyes that remind me of the bottom of a lake. Compared to me, who's constantly outdoors practicing, his skin is so white it looks like it can’t bear direct sunlight.

“… On second thought, it might be better if you wear it. Alright, yeah, you take it. I don't mind if I get more tanned.” 

Because he's so fair, I ask him to wear the hood too and I pull it up until his blonde hair is hidden. Now he looks just like a light blue weather doll, and I can’t help but laugh with a ‘pfffft’.

“What? What are you laughing at, Yuuri?”

“Because you’re super cute-… No, I mean, it feels like the weather will be on our side. If we hang you from the mast, the entire journey might be sunny.”

“You want to use me as a live sacrifice to pray for a safe voyage?!”

“Not a live sacrifice, weather dolls aren’t live sacrifices!”

episode from MaruMA:Volume09:Chapter 9

======

I drew this picture in September when I just started learning HOW TO DRAW, and I can't help but thinking about this scene. However, uh... I've drawn Wolfie(I learnt the nickname from @marumafan 's article, it's sooooooooooooo cute to call Wolf as Wolfie!!!) in the WRONG clothing!!! Cuz he was actually wearing a kitchen apprentices clothes... Whatever... God bless me... OTL

Haha~it was draw by my friend chiwanzijun! @chiwanzijun

This week's MAnniversary assignment is supposed to be choose your favorite scene and analyze it, but there are too many scenes to pick a favorite so I just chose random sections I like.  Super long so under a cut~

For me, the sweetest and most touching scene in the manga is when Yuri was able to free Wolf from the box by acknowledging their relationship in Chapter 108.

“Your world will be better if I don’t return."

How the Royal Couple came to be-

Since I really didn't have anything to share yet (cause my fic is making me sweat buckets) so I thought I could share this awesome part of how our Royal Couple were engaged. It is so amazingly written that every line makes me laugh and hold a different emotion.

You feel it more once you thoroughly know all the novel characters, or have travelled with them through some part of the 17 volume long adventure. It is a wonderful and tender feeling, when you know how they'd grow from this point on. And develop because of a misunderstanding of all things!All you need is a quick read of chapter 4 of volume 1 and you find so much.

Conrart's years of wait and his mission when he assures Wolfram that he can never mistake Yuuri.

Gwendal's years of dedication and calm care when he accepts Yuuri but had increased frown lines when he concluded that Yuuri didn't want to be a Maou- knowing him it was probably his way of taking care of him, probably indirectly saying "You don't need to burden yourself with something you don't want to do".

We also see Wolfram's judgement, as even though he was annoyed but he had his reasons because he didn't want to witness this country go through another war. All he wanted was a ruler who loved this country and he'd serve him gladly. Thankfully he did get one.

We see the forshadowing of Julia's soul when Yuuri mentions he can always know when Conrart is smiling.

We see a Günter in the initial stage of becoming Heika fanatic and spilling juices all around.

We see Cecilie's love for her children, and her husbands. Their unique but endearing mother-son bond.

We see the acceptance of homosexuality as another form of love. Because, love is free to pursue!- in Lady Cheri's words.

We also witness Shin Makoku's culture, it's delicacies and know how different it is just as much as it is similar. (Admit it, we are all secretly glad for Yuuri's clumsiness- and him not wanting to punch the beautiful face🤣)
