Long overdue fanart of Shugo Chara. it really was one of the fandoms that got me into drawing art seriously, wasn't it? Anyway, have an Utau, with her batty little Lunatic Charm transformation

[puri-kura]

ikuto and utau... their relationship feels like an aborted codependency. i find myself wondering whether utau's attachment would be healthier if she received any semblance of normal affection from him.

i can't help but feel bad for her.

It's been awhile since I last made a Shugo Chara render, and after seeing these HD scans from @kuro93 (massive amounts of thanks for these btw) I couldn't resist!

Individual renders below the cut!

My litmus test for if someone is worth discussing Shugo Chara with is how they think about Utau being attracted to Ikuto and the revelation of their uh "relationship."

[Spoilers under cut. If you know, you know.]

Like, do they understand why she's attracted to her brother? Do they understand what themes that attraction is used to highlight? Do they get how it relates to the wider themes of trauma and unstable identities and messed up family dynamics that warp the children within them?

Do they understand that Utau kissing her brother is part of the constantly reoccurring cycle of characters messed up by trauma and then becoming warped and unpleasant and harming others because that trauma is not being dealt with in a healthy manner? The cycle which underpins every single major villain in the story?

It's one thing to be grossed out by it, whatever, so were Kuukai, and Amu, and Ikuto! But when people start dismissing it as shock value fanservice or going "it shouldn't be in a kids manga!" it just tells me that they completely missed the point.

Yeah, it was messed up! Utau is messed up! Her relationship with her brother is messed up! Their childhood was messed up! Utau's behaviour towards her brother is a direct result of how messed up they are! The manga practically screams this at you!!!

And you know what? That should be in a kids manga. Utau's development of realizing her misplaced attraction to her brother is the result of her unstable family dynamics and learning to let go of him in that respect is important!

You think there aren't kids dealing with that? You think there aren't kids that have struggled with misplaced and inappropriate attractions to people because they've been messed up by trauma? You think they don't deserve to be seen and heard and told "you're not broken" and to know they can still be worth love and recovery? To know that they can still navigate a relationship outside of those misplaced attractions and messed up dynamics?

Genuinely: Utau's sub-plot with her dealing with her romantic attraction to her brother was both important and well written, and it ties in so neatly to every other theme about trauma and healing in the manga that if someone misses the point here, I just do not trust that they'll understand anything else this series has to say.
