HEY! Have you read my comic, Kuro Shouri? It's a slow-burn action/fantasy about two high schoolers who are being hunted down by demons! If you like 90s style shonen, slow burn character relationships, and lots of martial arts and sword action, check it out!

Also, the very random and unintentional character design decisions one makes when going through a style change. I definitely never sat down and told myself to draw him with more of a chin. Just kinda happened.
February 9, 2026 at 5:03 PM
Me: When did I start giving Hisaki more of a chin??? I used to draw his chin the same as Kakon's.
*carefully inspects hundreds of pages*
Me: Oh. Style change. Duh.

And this is why I shouldn't be required to take 3 hour breaks between drawing sessions!!! I get super bored!

Re: Discord...I ain't happy about it either, and honestly? Bro, I grew up emailing my friends. I will go back to that if I have to. And considering that next Jan., my state is enacting the ID verification thing, I might have to anyway.
...gettin' REAL TIRED of this shit happening, btw.

Thanks! I appreciate you asking. If we get to know each other over time, there is a good chance we could be moots! I really like to follow friends, for the most part. 👍

How about NO, discord!

New remake page! In which we finally cut out a very unnecessary part of the story. Yay!

I’m up to 2 hours and 45 minutes of drawing… and yesterday I was even able to play an hour of video games without pain. I’m so happy!
February 9, 2026 at 12:07 PM
I can’t help but notice that every morning lately, I wake up with my hand feeling loose and nice. It used to feel stiff and sometimes painful.
The physical therapy really is doing wonders for me ;w;
February 9, 2026 at 12:07 PM
I think no matter what, I'm not gonna have it for my first convention, and I'll deal with that. But it really looks like I'll have it for PortConMaine and that has me HYPED AS SHIT. 🤩

So, I plugged the tentative page numbers into the calculator to figure out how many days I have left on vol. 3.
My initial estimate that I did when I was only making 1 page a day? I'd finish in mid-May.
Now it's looking like mid- to late March. HOT DAMN. Just a little longer and I'll be done!!!
February 9, 2026 at 2:59 AM
I made 3 1/2 pages today... just a little more strength and I could have finished the fourth page. Very exciting! Time for more hand exercises!! 🥰💪
February 9, 2026 at 1:46 AM
WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT 🤣🤣🤣
I never ever make ginormous continuity errors like that. How dare. 😂

Last remake page for the day. Aww, Yasha looks so happy. ko-fi.com/i/IQ5Q81TVK5M

Day 172 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. The first picture I drew of Touya for his second arc. In this picture, he looks the way he’s supposed to – disheveled, and like he isn’t taking care of himself. In the comic, he ended up with total Daddy energy instead. Whoops!

Heck!! So jealous!! 🫠
February 8, 2026 at 3:05 PM
You saw Evanescence??? I friggin' hate you omg

(Kidding. A little. I really like that bad lol)
February 8, 2026 at 2:54 PM
Same! It is so wonderful to be slowly going back to my normal drawing strength! 🥰
February 8, 2026 at 2:08 AM
Yay, it's awesome that you want to use them! 🥰
February 8, 2026 at 1:32 AM
I did it again! I drew for 2 hours and 45 minutes! And my hand is less wobbly this time, now that I'm finished. PROGRESS! I'm so excited to keep doing my exercises now that I'm seeing some results! 🥰
February 8, 2026 at 1:29 AM
Day 171 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. This is actually the first picture of Kijo I ever drew. I remember seeing that ponytail on some random anime character and being inspired. Because apparently I design from the hair first xD
