i’m kinda redesigning my utapri mascot humanization/gijinka things
onpu-kun’s long things got cut for the lil ahoge thing to represent his mascot tail
piyo-chan’s only change is their hairstyle, i wanted to make it rounder to go with how round and cute piyo-chan is as a lil chick
penguin’s clothes are still cozy-looking but his hairstyle got revamped so hard i realized shortly after drawing him i accidentally turned him into a prettyboy
i’m planning on doing more but these three are like the main three so i had to do them first y’know?
I present... the character relationship chart from the second official fanbook! Thanks again to the Kyuushi Discord server for the scans, Aroshi for help with cleaning, Shells for proofreading, and Crimson for Mebi's "fry" 😆❗
Like last time, there are some notes under the cut!
↓
Mippiki: As a reminder, this word is a combination of "three people + one small animal (armadillo)" and refers to Rona, Draluc, John, and Hinaichi.
Little-big Bro: Himari calls Rona "chii-nii" (小兄) to differentiate between him and their eldest brother, Hiyoshi. Ironic considering their heights…
God of Popularity Polls: In case you're wondering who that random old man is with arrows to Rona and Draluc, that's him, the God of Popularity Polls. Ura-Shinyoko stole his seiyuu in the anime…
Bio-employees: Autumn is capable of just growing living entities like Rokumon and Chinoike in their lab. Very normal publishing company.
Cement: Chinoike's gimmick is that he only speaks in wrestling terms. I don't know anything about wrestling myself but Google tells me that a "cement style" wrestling match is a serious match where both parties do their best to genuinely win, as compared to an exhibition type match which is more staged/for fun?
Niga, Sanga: Kuwabara and Sanzu are a ninja and kunoichi respectively. Their village names are parodies of the famed Iga ninja. Ni means 2, san means 3.
Useful mobs: Mob = background character. Bonnoki and the fandom's beloved bg boys Miki Kanae and Yoshida Terukazu-san❗❗ There's lore behind these 2 but I won't get into all that here, I just want to mention that Yoshida-san is based off a real person's art. Hopefully we'll get to see the 3rd useful mob in a relationship chart someday!
Piyo-chan: Ventrue accidentally made himself appear as this cute bird avatar on a Noom (Zoom parody) call with the other old bloods. They'll never let him live it down.
Black Silhouette: This is the three brothers' mother, Gabriella! Her face was hidden for quite some time before she finally made a fully drawn appearance in chapter 297.
As always please do take my translations with a grain of salt; I'm just a fan translator and while I did have someone help me with proofreading, the possibility of mistakes remains. If you have any questions or comments feel free to reach out to me here on tumblr or on Discord, @ ash in the Kyuushi server.
I hope there will be more people on this site that will appreciate this ouran ceramic wine cup I painted feat. usa-chan, kuma-chan, berzenoff, & piyo-chan
Progressed a tiny bit in Y4 today! Unfortunately I got sick (as usual with a daycare job) and I have some motion sickness because of it, so I had to cut my gaming session very short. Just random tidbits.
Firstly: NOT happy that anything chase-related is in the game, I had to change the difficulty to Easy with every chase thingy in Y3. It does seem more doable in this game, though!
Keeping up the tradition of making the protag hold a plushie the entire playthrough. Kiryu always gets a bunchan (when they're available) and I guess Akiyama gets Piyo-chan!
Oh no!! Who could've predicted that!! I'm SO SURPRISED!!
....nahh but fr. At this point I'd be extremely surprised if we got a game were the Tojo clan DOESN'T go through a massive crisis that fundamentally changes everything.
Do people really just... chat at the urinals?? or are these two just weirdos??
I know he's saying the guy is lucky to be alive, but... I think the guy is lucky BECAUSE he got his ass handed to him by Hana. God I wish that were me.
So many “blink and you’ll miss it” shots in Cure Butterfly’s transformation sequence (including a cameo of Piyo-chan who also shows up in Butterfly Press), I love it.
