Mejiro Ryan (Umamusume)
メジロライアン（ウマ娘）

It came to me in a dream.

#kageryuart #ウマ娘 #umamusume
Colored bust of Mejiro Ryan wearing Fuji Kiseki's clothes. Both characters are from Umamusume: Pretty Derby. Microsoft Windows often disappoints me, but this window always lifts my spirits. Text: メジロライアン Mejiro Ryan KageRyu798 十一月 2025

Konne (My OC)
コーン（オリキャラ）

New OC! Well I've had her a short while, but this is the first formal concept art of her. She was designed for some Game Maker projects I've been dabbling in.

#kageryuart #kageryuoc
Colored doodle of Konne, one of my original characters. She is a sword wielder with a very simple outfit design with a red-and-black color scheme.

I mean I guess the bunny Aliza from last year wasn't bad, but I'm mostly talking about these two from 2021 and 2023 respectively:
Colored thigh-up art of Aliza from Granblue Fantasy with awkwardly smooth novice shading and a very wonky facial structure. Drawn in 2021. Flat-colored full-body art of Aliza from Granblue Fantasy in her water alt appearance. The line art is nicely detailed, though the facial structure still looks a bit off. Drawn in 2023.

Aliza (Granblue Fantasy)
アリーザ（グランブルーファンタジー）

I've finally drawn Aliza without my anatomy being unbearably wonky.

Bastet (Granblue Fantasy)
バステト（グランブルーファンタジー）

Rough Doodle commission. There is not enough sexy Bastet art out there, so I am very happy to contribute.

#kageryuart #VGenComm #GBF #グラブル
Colored thigh-up doodle of Bastet from Granblue Fantasy in her summer summon attire. She is posed in a playfully seductive dakimakura-style composition, with an accompanying white cloth background. Text: バステト Bastet Thanks for the commission! KageRyu798 十一月 2025

Aria (@paroro.bsky.social's OC)

Haven't drawn her in a while so here she is again. She really should be more careful walking around ink floors!

#kageryuart
Colored waist-up of Aria, one of Paroro's OCs. She has slipped on the floor and landed on her tush, with one of her two-scoop choco mint and vanilla ice cream scoops having slipped off the cone and landing in her lap, but not before bouncing off her voluminous chest. It has left quite the sticky mess, so much that one wrong crop could create a very misleading picture. The janitor can be seen cleaning up the inky floor behind a very clear warning sign, but alas, it was too late for her. Whoops! Text: KageRyu798 十一月 2025

Makura (Granblue Fantasy)
マコラ（グランブルーファンタジー）

Warmup sketch. Based on that one outfit she had in either Grand Blues or one of the interview segments.

Mako doing the tights trend...

WITHOUT THE TIGHTS.

(She is now eligible to enter the Salty Spitoon, but is still not allowed to for entirely different reasons.)

#kageryuart #kageryuoc
Rough colored render of my OC Mako doing a recent trend in her own way. She is without her cape, lying prone in a seductive manner, looking toward the viewer with a smug expression and her legs up, the closer of which is has her stiletto heel purposefully caught on her dress, raising it up to show off more of her bottom (the trend she's imitating normally does this with tights instead).

Julia (Fire Emblem)
ユリア（ファイアーエムブレム）

Soft bust commission of Julia in the Fates Witch outfit. As a bonus, I gave her a Heart Usurped spin on the idea. Thank you very much!

#kageryuart #VGenComm #FE #ファイアーエムブレム
Soft-rendered bust of Julia from Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, dressed in the outfit for the Witch class from Fire Emblem Fates. Her expression and demeanor reflect her Heart Usurped alt from Fire Emblem Heroes, bearing the same Dark Scripture tome and a sinister smile while casting dark magic. Text: Thanks for the commission!

Drew some Mako while I was off the grid. Witch outfit that is also a bunny suit!

I LIVE.

What I thought was a weekend of moving was me packing my computer days before we were even ready, and then we didn't even bring the Internet on the first trip. So yeah. Was off the grid for two weeks.

BUT I HAVE RETURNED.

Sailor Mercury (Sailor Moon)
セーラーマーキュリー（美少女戦士セーラームーン）

Commission. She wins the award for "most confusing canon hair color".

#kageryu798 #SailorMoon
Full-body soft render of Sailor Mercury from the Sailor Moon series. She's in her typical lineup pose* in front of her transformation sequence's final background. *I specify "lineup" because it's different from her transformation pose, and as one who has not watched Sailor Moon, I am unsure which is more "canon". I am also unsure what her canon hair color is meant to be, but that is beside the point. Text: セーラーマーキュリー Sailor Mercury Thanks for the commission! KageRyu798

Katalina (Granblue Fantasy)
カタリナ（グランブルーファンタジー）

Is that new bonus artwork for SR Summer Katalina???

Sadly no, it's a commission. But I'm sure in a few millennia I'll get to that level. Thank you very much for commissioning me!

#kageryuart #VGenComm #グラブル
Soft-rendered full-body art of Katalina from Granblue Fantasy in her summer outfit: a plain white bikini with her gauntlets still equipped. She's sitting on a towel on the beachside under a white-and-blue umbrella watching Lyra (also in her summer swimwear) play in the shallows in the ocean. The composition is set up to replicate the style of the bonus/uncap artwork typically used for summer characters in Granblue Fantasy, using a faded border and slight fisheye framing.

Some artists name their layers in helpful ways.
Some don't name them at all.
Some keyboard-mash names.

Me: [makes JoJo reference]
Screenshot of some layers in a CSP file. Most retain their default Layer # name, with one folder named "ZA SUN!" in reference to The Sun stand from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

Dredging up this old piece again to prove otherwise.
(Anna art by THE @bakaretsu.bsky.social)

#kageryuart #ファイアーエムブレム
A flat-color drawing depicting Corrin and Ryu reenacting EVO Moment #37, where Corrin (Fire Emblem) is parrying Foxy's (Five Nights at Freddy's) kick. Corrin is dressed as the security intern from FNaF, sans shoes. The background is a rough depiction of Corrin's workstation. In the corner is an art piece by Bakaretsu depicting a livestream cam of Anna (Fire Emblem) in the shocked expression and pose of a famous Markiplier screenshot from one of his FNaF playthroughs. For readers who cannot view the image and find the description hard to follow, I can assure you the image is just as out-of-pocket as the description, requiring layers of context that are lost in posting this image here as opposed to its original posting on Twitter.

Naya Uno's birthday is Jan. 19th because that's when I first drew her!

That's also where her name comes from: "Naya" from EN "9/nine" and JP "8/ya", phonetically combined, as she was drawn around midnight between the 18th and 19th. "Uno" for January and the tens place.

#kageryuart #kageryuoc
Simple flat-colored art of my first drawing of Naya Uno, an OC with silver hair, midtone skin, and red eyes. When not drawn with a silver sheen, her hair is a pale cyan.

Falcon LUNCH!

Drew this around the time the Min Min trailer for Ultimate released. Definitely one of my favorite works at the time.

#kageryuart #SSBU #SSB
Cel-shaded art of Captain Falcon in the ramen bistro outfit he wears during Min Min's trailer for Super Smash Brothers Ultimate. He is viewed from a slightly low angle, saluting with his left hand while extending a bowl of steaming ramen toward the viewer with his right. The background shares the design motif of the ramen bowl. Text: 6月 | 25日 2020 | カゲリュ @KageRyu798
