Hey bro🙌 out there, I'm going to explain how the trendy Miku-oji meme came about, so please spread the word if you can!
1️⃣ When the Japanese meme "hokoraozisan" (Shrine Uncle) became popular, with the existence of Teto's gender-swapped form, Ted, Uncle Ted was born from a fan art artist of Furimomen. To briefly explain Hokora-Ozisan, it's the story of a mysterious old man who languidly speaks to people who destroy small shrines and shows concern for them! His pinned tweet is the original Hokora-Ozisan! “This is also the person who first started the Miku-Oji concept! 👉( @kyusu_050509 )
2️⃣ If there's an uncle version of Teto, there must be an uncle version of Miku too! And so, fan art of Miku-oji spread!
3️⃣ Currently, various artists are starting to draw their own original Miku-oji! In terms of the trend, the design with bits on his head and wearing a worn military uniform is probably the origin of my design. This is a Miku-Oji designed as a combat model! 👉(@atuhina393 )
“By the way, just for extra context: there are two versions — ‘Miku-Oji’ (an older-man version of Miku) and ‘Kuo-Oji’ (an older-man version of Mikuo). They look similar, but they’re a bit different! The person who first created/drew Kuo-Oji is this person!👉( @rakuyoki )
My combat-model Miku-Oji was inspired by Rakuyoki’s Kuo-Oji and Tokyusu’s Miku-Oji—go check them out, they’re all super cute!
“If you’re up for it, spread the Miku-Oji meme, bro! I can’t wait to see everyone’s Miku-Oji!👍👍👍
(I’m using a translator, so sorry if anything sounds off!😭💦)
I hope everyone gets to experience the masterpiece that is When the Night Comes. Make sure to grab it, it's so worth it, sale or not 💚

Especially recommending August's route 🫢 (didn't hear it from me tho)
This is how shading and gradation in manga was done in during pre-digital era; using screentones. Lots of meticulous shaping, scraping, scoring to get the desired shading effect.
Every. Single. Panel. Manga is hard work. 🥲
3 years ago, around this time I saw an ad for male characters for HSR release and immediately fell in love with Welt.
After 3 years of up and down, ships/favorites come and change, and he’s still my most precious.
(This gorgeous official art of him still took my breath away)
As night falls, the grand curtain rises. Take his hand and move forward without looking back. Through light and night, we journey toward a future with you.

@Natsume_Inc Ooo, interesting idea, although I’m not sure how some people will react lol. As long as there are ways to be safe from them eventually, then I’m fine with it, tho.
I’ve been calling out Colossal’s grift for some time - and have received plenty of flak from a certain subset of the palaeo fandom for doing so.
I actually wanted to be wrong.
I wasn’t.
