Tw: spoilers

Posting again, because Tumblr is messing with me 😐

I was thinking about the drawings of Yuma with long hair, so I made an edit of that.

Also thinking about a tired appearance, because he as Number One, was a workaholic, and probably went back to being one post game.

I think his routine wasn't the best, I don't think WDO is healthy work, you know...Why don't we know anything about his real name and past? Is it really that bad? Maybe a possible second game will work with this detail?

Putting aside the whole dismissing emotions thing, I think he was still a nice person to talk to, He would have a calm, quiet voice and would be friendly to the people, with his noble desire to make everyone happy... (But he deserves happiness too). I like how The fans work with him mixing personalities where he can be calm, logical and analytical, and he can be emotional, As a reminder that emotions don't need to be dismissed entirely, and that they are valid. I also read a very cool fanfics like You and I, in Solitude by @snivyartjpeg and A Heartwarming Reunion by @pixelatedraindrops, I really liked how the authors worked on Yuma's personality, I also play as him in a Discord RP, but it's not better than the fanfic authors.

Do you think he wore a mask or/and a hood over his head to hide more from society? I think so. I hope we see him again, it would be cool to have him as a mentor, he seems like he would be a good fit for that.

I tried to make him with a hood, but I don't think it turned out well, so forget it.

The comparison that can be drawn between Izuru and Makoto Kagutsuchi is so obvious.

But it's also so interesting because of the fact that Makoto is like a reverse Izuru in a way.

They're both monstrous science experiments who were made from the body of the protagonists of their respective games. However, whereas Izuru had lost his personality and humanity in the process, Makoto had actually become more human in the process of becoming a monster.

Hajime sold his soul to become something else. Izuru, without a sense of self, did not care about anything but perfectionism. Due to this however, he could not understand that the humanity behind imperfections is essential to the joy of creation and the purpose to living.

Makoto's human progenitor, Number One, is the detached perfectionist who lacked the emotion to understand that part of being human includes some subjectivity and imperfect solutions. The non-human homunculus, Makoto, grew so desperate for a sense of belonging that he acted on emotion and performed necessary evils just to maintain it.

Makoto lied, he killed, he participated in desperate meaningless prayer, and he carried too much emotion and grief for his soul to bear all for the love of the place he felt he belonged. As far as the impression we were given, Number One cared about nothing but achieving his impossible goal by reaching a perfect solution through a pragmatic singular truth, and ended up selling his soul for it.

And ironically, Yuma had also gained a sense of self and emotion upon Number One selling his soul. He had become imperfect, and therefore more human. And yet, what distinguishes Yuma from either Number One or Makoto is his lack of a grand purpose. All he had was a sense of justice and an instinct to help people around him, and pondering his purpose was also a part of his own subjective human experience.

I love the way they all explore the philosophy behind the relationship between ego, purpose, perfectionism, subjectivity, and humanity.

Tw: Spoiler alert

Still practicing hair, and trying to find a proper way to draw it. Also experimenting with hair lengths. 😋

Mmmm, long hair Yuma? Why not? I was watching some hair tutorials, and I was playing around with some things from the app, so I ended up doing this, it's not the best result, but it's something. I like the idea of Number One having long hair and when he was younger he had shorter hair.

The blue background is to match his blue uniform, although his hair and eyes follow the purple pattern.

Do you think he wore a black uniform or suit? To make him stand out more as a leader, I still think he could wear a hood and mask to hide himself more from society and everyone. I had said that he was clearly a nice person, but I think he was kind of empty inside despite thinking about others. Always alone.

I still want to make him wear different clothes.

He's pissed because he needs to fix his hair urgently. Maybe cutting it a little would help?

[real-raincode-takes]

since yuma just innately understands how to pilot a boat in chapter 3 even with amnesia i believe that number one knows how to drive practically every vehicle. he can hotwire a car in seconds and drive that bad boy like it's his business. he knows a speedboat like the back of his hand. submarine? sure. motorcycle? easy. k2 black panther battle tank? absolutely.

the only thing he cant pilot is an airplane. i dont have a deep reason for this other than i think it'd be really funny if he had massive airplane anxiety

Nobody asked for more but I delivered. You're welcome

Anyway. Lore-wise the book can transform into a twink when he wants to. He's also a God but for death-related knowledge (I imagine there's other book gods) and somebody sealed Shinigami inside his pages. Now you may be asking. Alfie doesn't this mean Shinigami wasn't alone for all those years? Please consider that this guy doesn't give a shit and wouldn't really care to interact with her. Just completely unbothered. He dgaf. Wait how would it feel to have some random lady sealed inside of you. Is this mpreg. Or like. Vore. I should stop typing
