MIGHTY NEED 

for a non-H Persona 4 doujin in which the Investigation Team minus Protagonist go into the TV World (Post-Arena, pre-Golden Epilogue) to train and Kanji’s Persona turns back into a Shadow and harasses him about hiding his feelings for Naoto.

And his Shadow behaves like a ludicrously macho, smooth-talking lady killer that hits on Naoto endlessly.  Then Kanji is so embarrassed and shy that he rejects his Shadow and it goes berserk and the IT has to fight it and it ends with Kanji finally confessing to Naoto in front of everyone.

SOMEONE DO THIS

Only if smooth-talking lady killer Kanji has terrible pick up lines that actually sound suave because he is a lady killer, and Naoto doesn’t understand that they’re pick up lines and takes them seriously:

Kanji:  Did it hurt?

Naoto:  You mean our previous battle?  I suppose it did hurt a little, but we did manage to defeat the shadow.

Kanji:  I meant did it hurt when you fell from heaven?

Naoto:  Kanji-kun, you are fully aware that we did not fall from heaven.  We chose to jump into the television together, that is hardly falling.

Oh man everyone knows this is like my favorite Persona 4 pairing!  In fact, this is one of my favorite all time pairings.  Now I could go into a long, “Because they’re fucking cute,” rambling (but they totally are), but I want to go into my serious reasons.  

I think they compliment each other in that, “So different but so alike,” sort of way.  Considering their back stories, I think they can relate. Kanji lost his dad, Naoto lost both parents.  Kanji was teased for liking girly things, Naoto went so far as to pose as a boy.  They’re use to being different from everyone else, so I think they could relate to one another.

Besides that, there’s also the appeal of, on the outside, Kanji’s a moron and Naoto is this analytical person.  At face value, they would never work.  But if you look deeper than that, you can see that they would work really well together.  Deep down they’re both misunderstood.  Deep down, Naoto doesn’t want to be alone, and Kanji just wants people to accept him.  

I mean sure they interested me with Kanji’s crush, but it was when I got to Naoto’s dungeon that I really started to like them.  Mostly because Kanji just got her so well.  He said something really important then, something that definitely showed that he was more than the “tough stupid guy,” (though his dungeon did that, too).  It’s when she’s freaking out over her shadow and Chie is like, “No, don’t say it!”  And Kanji is like, “No, let the kid spill it, she needs to or she’ll keep hurting.” And in that moment it was like… wow, someone gets it!  I mean sure when you’re playing you’re thinking, “OMG DON’T SAY IT OR I’M GONNA HAVE TO FIGHT AGAIN!”  But, honestly?  You HAVE to face yourself.  You have to let it all out and face it.  (as a side note this is one thing I liked about the anime, how the characters were conscious when facing their shadows).  

In that moment it was like, wow, Kanji not only really gets her, but he gets, well, the entire message of the game.  Before anyone did.  In a way he’s the most brilliant character in the game, to me at least.  

And yeah after that the game sort of divulged into the “omg cute crush” stuff, but I never really forgot that one moment.  Like yes, this one-sided crush is cute but, omg, for that moment Kanji really, really understood what Naoto needed.  More than she herself did.

Persona 4 Vol.7: Link

Cute mini Naoto xD

Bless this person’s soul for sharing this  *__*  

I really wish someone would license the Persona 4 manga so I can just like buy all of it.  

Suddenly my heart is remembering my Kanji and Naoto feels.  Not that I forgot them, but the manga has refreshed pleasant memories  <3

SO I DID A THING *drops and runs*

I just really loved this, it’s short and sweet, and much to my delight, I could actually read most of it! I just had to look up a few kanji I didn’t know. I wanted to do this to share the adorableness and practice my Japanese, because this is what I’d like to do someday c:

If you know Japanese and have criticism, PLEASE CRITICIZE ME. CONSTRUCTIVELY. I feel like I got the point across, but I know it’s not perfect. Also, if I overstepped some boundary in doing this, let me know.

Notes:

• Since it wouldn’t fit in these tiny little bubbles In keeping with the English version of the game, I went with “big sis” instead of writing out neechan/Naoto-neechan even though I think it sounds really awkward and unnatural in English.
• fun fact: when Nanako says “All done!” another translation for her original line is “all melted” and all I could think was Nanako running around setting things on fire while maniacally singing EVERYDAYS GREAT AT YOUR JUNES
• じー is kind of the sound of stunned silence, which doesn’t really have an English equivalent? Going “Whoa…” under your breath is something that works in this context.
• I FEEL SO LAME FOR LEAVING THE LAST PAGE LIKE THAT. I just don’t know most of those kanji, and can’t make them out well enough to even look up. Basically, Naoto is just quoting lines from Loveline.

Sukuna Hikona sweater I designed for my wifey and finally finished. This is the prototype, considering offering for sale but made out of sweater material instead of fleece.

Thoughts? Any other characters we should design?

The idea is to make geek friendly sweaters and hoodies that can be for plush or thin sized, custom made.

MY ANNIVERSARY GIFT IS DONE!!!  Sukuna Hikona sweater.  I’m so happy with it!

This is the prototype to a new item we’ll be offering at our shop: character hoodies.  We will be taking commissions on these, too.  The plan is to make it look like what the character wears.  We have a few sketches done for other sweaters/hoodies, but we’ll also take custom orders too  :)  

This idea was inspired by me wanting geeky hoodies/sweaters, but it’s always difficult to find them in my size.  So plus sized geek hoodies are a go!

Oh, and reference pic below:
