Zango's Beef Corner

Heyo, Zango here. You may be wondering what this blog is all about. Well, if you give a quick look, you may get an idea for yourself.

Jokes aside, it took me a long time to gather up enough confidence to make this blog. Thing is... I love beef. And I love drawing it. But I am very, very self-aware about it. I have grown to learn that drawing very beefy characters is considered stupid, or a joke, or something sexual that it’s strictly PG18+. Which, to be honest, my art is far from it. Call it fetish, call it whatever, it doesn’t change the fact that I get a lot of fun in drawing it and coming up with ideas for it.

And this is where this blog comes in play. I have been trying to get more comfortable with sharing my beef art around since I end up drawing something I’m proud of and want to share it from time to time. Hopefully this blog will help me get out of my shell and get comfortable with it without disturbing anyone, as I am aware that not many like this kind of art. This also counts for reblogging others’ beef art that I really like.

With all that said, I’m afraid I have a bunch of stuff I want to point out. I don’t want to call them rules, but it’s pretty much that.

First of all, this blog is not NSFW. As much as the topic may lead to that, I am not one who normally draws anything PG18+, even less post it around. At most, I get to PG16, or even 17. Just, almost there, but not crossing the line. If I cross the line and I haven’t tagged it or anything, please let me know. The last thing I want is to make people uncomfortable.

I do not take requests. I’m sorry but prefer keeping things on a personal level. If most, I only take requests from close friends, although it’s mostly just by asking for prompts to draw. And please do not try to trick me into drawing beef for you. That’ll get you blocked.

Please be respectful. While I appreciate feedback, please try to not use comments on the perverted line and such. Joking or not, those kind of comments make me feel uncomfortable on a public platform. On the same note, if you’re going to be like “ew why do you draw such unrealistic bodies” and similar stuff, then what are you doing here? This place is not for you. If you want more normal art from me, go to my main blog.

While I usually draw my own characters and content for beef purposes, I may end up drawing other people’s characters as well. Whenever I’ll name them or not, please do not go bother them. I have their permission to draw their characters and post them in here, but I find respectful to keep things contained for their own sake too.

Hopefully I covered everything I wanted to point out. In case more comes to mind, I’ll add to this post.

So uh.......... remember that Manato comic?

It got stuck in my head again, and I was like "what if I went back and refined the design a bit?"

Except I ended up spending 10 whole hours on this because I kept wanting to add more details and elements... OTL

Also bonus unfiltered background art for clearer view:

Hello and welcome to this hell that my brain thought well of hyperfocusing for 4 days in a row, only to lose all creative juices and making me struggle to finish it in some way.

The plot feels incredibly rushed especially in the last third of it, and I feel like I ended up going very out-of-character with them all, but I had to tell myself that this was meant to be a self-indulgent thingie just for fun so it doesn't have to be perfect. I do have to warn that I did give up on this at one point so apologies if the flow is all over the places.

Also, small context for those who are not familiar with ZZZ's story as well as one of my headcanons:

the blue manato is "Drowned Ideal - Komano Manato", he's basically an incarnation of Manato's childhood dream of what he wanted to become like as an adult, created by the miasma (which can be summarized with "Ow the Edge". I'm not joking fdkjng). in the story you end up confronting him and eventually get rid of the Ghost Town formed by the miasma (it's a bit of a story that I won't go in details here), and by neutralizing the Ether in it to free the people trapped in it, DI Manato ceases to exist, asking the real Manato to not forget about him (aka his old dream). so yeah, this goes with the idea that Manato does make sure to not forget about him, and eventually a part of DI returns and lives within Manato… if that makes sense lol

So yeah, enjoy this long-ass comic lol

I promised a friend I would draw Manato shirtless once his Mindscape art was revealed. It took me this long to come up with a good idea with it... OTL

Me: "I'll just do one effortless doodle before bed, nothing too crazy…"

*one hour later*

Small low-energy doodle from a few days ago. I asked some friends to pic one OC of mine for me to draw beef of, and after a long heated discussion it ended up as a tie between Keho and Hans.

Alas, the above doodle.

Also bonus doodle of them after being asked for a "sandwich":

A couple more doodles of the Kaiju AU from a couple days ago.

And for anyone curious, here's a bit of info on it because my brain elaborated the idea a little too deeply:

…so uh. Remember that time I drew Kaiju Hans for shit and giggles? I just did, and uh… what started as a "lol I'm gonna draw a proper tf sequence after 5+ years" quickly turned into actual plot…

so uh… enjoy?

Thank you for joining the stream.
