Shana in Red
Shana. Fiery hair, fiery eyes. This is a great rendition of her, lots of motion in the piece. I think this is a doujin work- can anyone ID the artist?
Haruhi on a Bicycle
This wallpaper is full of typical Haruhi energy. She looks like she’s midair in some mission for the club. The camera around her neck is nice detail.
Chobits - Chii
Chii hanging out on a pole. Her outfit is great, especially the shoes. Persocon! She’s such an adorable character! Pantsu! Pantsu! Pantsu!
Schoolgirls with Paper Plane
Two schoolgirls - their seifuku adorned with insignia that look somewhat military. Maybe they’re in training to become en lite team of paper plane pilots! Ok, maybe not. I think this is from Kimikiss…
Clannad - Tomoyo Sakagami, Cherry Blossoms
I haven’t watched Clannad, and am not crazy about the huge eyed characters, but this Cherry Blossom image was cute, and seemed appropriate for the time of year. Early April is when the cherry blossoms bloom, and soon there-after fall like pink snow. Sakura is the word for cherry blossoms in Japanese.
Akira Explosion
Cool explosion scene from Akira. Neo-Tokyo go Boom!
Neon Genesis Evangelion - Misato on a Honda
This art of Misato on a cute little motorcycle seems to fit in with Yoshiyuki Sadamoto’s use of retro vehicles and his attention to their accurate rendering. For example, after a bit of digging, this bike turns out to be a Honda Monkey z50J from 1975 (Only sold to Euro / Japanese market). The only difference I can find is that Misato’s ride has a custom exhaust installed.
FLCL - Samejima Mamimi
Samejima Mamimi chillin out somewhere remote by herself with her cat Takun. Strangely, she calls Naota and her ‘pet’ robot Takun too - which just shows how she thinks of poor Nao.
Gurren Lagann - Yoko Close-up
This image of Yoko is full of energy and that feel-good vibe she emits. Looks like well-executed fan art.[Any help identifying fan artist or series would be appreciated!]
Haruhi Rock Band!
I love this cover image from the Suzumiya Haruhi no Gekisou album. The Extravaganza of Suzumiya Haruhi was a Lucky Star concert event that happened in 2007. Check out Random Curiosity’s review. I’d love to see a figure made with Yuki wearing that outfit.
