I'm Mao Onigawara of the Ground Defense Force! I'll protect the peace of Japan!

I was privileged to be part of @dotzines pris-M-agic Zine project, and this is my illustration for it! When picking a magical girl, I wanted to represent a series that was influential on me growing up but would be underrepresented in the zine. Despite other options having a more meaningful influence on me now, I knew they'd be (rightfully) more popular. However, Ground Defense Force Mao Chan was the anime that REALLY got 10 year old me into anime (and, down the line, magical girls!). Strange, right? With these two combined factors, it became an obvious decision.

As for the drawing itself, I wanted to highlight the titular character Mao. Despite being mostly pink in design, her representative color in the story is green. It was a fun challenge to balance that out appropriately while also finding a way to convey her role in protecting the land/ground/earth.

FULL ZINE CAN BE FOUND HERE!

I didn't watch them regularly and it was hard for me to tell at that age #mao chan was the first time I recognized this was 'anime' and that it came from 'japan' (thus began the weeb phase...)#the dub made it clear it was very blatantly IN japan and the characters themselves held japan in high regard...#so it's like... when you're a kid being told this different place across the world is so cool that kinda affects you ig LMAO

GO! UNIFIED DEFENSE FORCES!!

A drawing I did a few weeks ago while getting nostalgic for some of the stuff I used to watch. This anime's cute, but it's got so many problems... but I gotta give it credit for being the one that jumpstarted my weeb/magical girl phase in elementary school. I had all the dvds and watched them all repeatedly. And I mean Repeatedly.

bonus silly comic under the cut:

(the defense song they cheerfully sing lives in my brain rent free, except my brain (unfortunately) chants this version I made up where the lyrics fit my late-20's crisis, done in an attempt to make myself feel better, LOL)
