Guh those suspenders. Headcanon of Kanji pulling those suspenders to pull Naoto in for a kiss is now a thing.
… and we are totally doing a picture of that once Kanji is complete! Thanks for the great idea, your headcanon shall become reality. :)
Ariel was inspired to wear them because of this concept art. We never see her without the coat, after all, and it just seemed like a very Naoto thing to do.*
*Not to mention, braces are a reliable method of trouser suspension when a belt cannot be worn, as we’ve learned with my Kurama, Sebastian, and Yusuke cosplays. I highly recommend them if your character doesn’t have a visible belt and especially so if you’re going to carry a phone/keys/etc. in your trouser pockets. We got ours (Dockers brand) for about $16 before tax at Sears and J.C. Penney.
OMG I forgot about that picture in the artbook and I own the artbook, lol. I cannot WAIT TO SEE THIS HEADCANON COME TRUE! You’re an awesome person, cosplayer I just met on tumblr.
btw… did you see Kurama, Sebastian, and Yusuke? Did you like… decide to raid my brain for my favorite fandoms and do cosplays of them?
