KAI HIWATRAI FanArt

Kai Hiwatari is the famous character of the legendary anime series Beyblade. Like so many of you, I'm also one of those 90s kids who grew up being highly obsessed with this show. And honestly I still am and I guess I always will be... KAI is my all time favorite beyblader! His destructive beyblade with the fierce bit-beast Dranzer and his cool yet fiery style never failed to mesmerize me. His cold stares, quiet strength left such a lasting impression on me. Anyone who watched this show would admit that there was something so magnetic about his presence, something that made him totally unforgettable. So after all these years I tried to recreate one of my childhood heroes in my own way.

Old Sketch from 2022

||Original Character||

No reference was taken to draw this piece.

I started drawing this back at 2022 and like many other sketches of mine I left it unfinished. Recently while going through my old sketches I found this one and thought it'd be really unfair not to complete this one..

I don't exactly remember what I was thinking when I drew her eye, but there is a subtle yet a very prominent hint of peace and melancholy, wouldn't you say... I guess the saying is very true, that when you dissolve into what you create, the creation becomes an echo of your soul.

Is never easy,

Especially if you turn around, even for once…

Kenshin is the lead character of the famous manga ‘Rurouni Kenshin’ (also known as ‘Samurai X’) written by Nobuhiro Watsuki. This was one of the animes which I watched when Animax channel first aired in India back in 2004, I feel so nostalgic!! And in no time this anime series became my favorite and till this date, to me, it’s one of the best anime series I’ve ever watched. I have a huge crush on Kenshin for like more than fifteen years now, not only because he’s shown as an invincible swordsman in this show but also his values and morals, his maturity, the tenderness he holds in his heart and how he always tried to protect everyone around him.
