The First Himiko + Snake Drawing Of The Year Yay!

Tgchk week from twt!

I JUST WAKE UP

AND MY DAY IS ALREADY PERFECT

Your ideas just inspire me so much, I can't stop thinking about them hehe 😅🥺

You're genuinely the only one who can get me to draw tgck haha, so I'm the one who should say thanks here 🫶

And you take time to actually look at the details every time, it warms my poor old heart 😭🤧💓

If God had meant us to fly, he would have given us wings

Ochako says it's bullshit

Ochako says she'll become your wings

@dailytogachako marronje the drawing demon is at your service again

Well, I just couldn't resist, Himiko and snakes in one sentence summon me eventually

We togachako nation obviously have one damn braincell when it comes to such things 💅💅💅 (I personally read it yesterday so I needed to share XD)

If you're reading this and you ship togachako

Go read Carmilla

You can watch the movie of course, but don't waste your time on Carmilla (2019), it doesn't even start to cover the original plot

You can try the Terror in the Crypt (1964), it's kinda old, but the story is close to the og one

But if you have the time to read the 1872 novel you better go read it (it's only 16 short chapters)

I plan a few big things in terms of writing, so I needed to write down a few key points about this blog in advance (I'm not a good writer, but the ideas they're there anyway, I need to share)

I plan to write something on this blog once in never, so I need to clarify some things so I don't type it all down every single time.

I'm an average Toga Himiko enjoyer. She's not my favorite character ever, and I understand why some people don't like her, but she's my favorite character to draw. I think this kind of love is valid too.

Ochako Uraraka doesn't hold much of my interest (even if socionics says she'd be my ideal partner, heh). But character interaction is cool, so I'll include her in my content too, just don't think it's out of pure undying love (she's a sweetheart anyway).

I DON'T ship togachako (I rarely ship characters in general), but I like every single piece of content about them and find the whole dynamic fascinating. So yes, I'm willing to contribute, just... on the platonic side.

Some things I say about the characters may sound as overly critical or dismissive. It's not to offend the characters, or fans, or anyone else, I just point out flaws where I see them (being my usual blunt self). Just remember that a bad person doesn't mean a bad character specifically (works both ways).

I don't say the way I see the characters is the only right one. Quite the opposite, I always see them through the prism of my experience and knowledge, and it's The Charm about studying and loving things. I'm always willing to learn more and discuss. Discussion in particular is my favorite thing.

I respect your tastes. I don't aim to offend you. So please, save the peace of mind for us all.

Chill. And enjoy what we create together here.

dividers are created by me if you're curious

I arrived as soon as I could and OH HO THIS IS SOOOOOOO GOOD?!?!?

I've been thinking about Toga as Jinx so much lately and after the second season it just clicked (especially after the parallel realm thing)

Just look at them! The buns! The bangs! The lil tiny strands framing their faces!

The hairstyles are just identical I swear

And I LOVE the designs you came up with, the girls look so perfect!

Thank you sm for tagging me!!!!!

@dailytogachako @marronje @queen-ochako @lily-claw

anyways while y'all were discussing tgck as caitvi I drew them as timebomb.

also toga as the iconic jinx scene (doodle bc I'm working on more for this au bc it has me in a chokehold.)

I promised and I did it

I call this ✨strawberry Ochako✨

Not perfect, but I tried to make it practical (I just wanted to give Ocha some cool pants)

(my rambling about the og design which started it all)

Special thanks to @lily-claw, your input was major here haha (maybe that's why I've stolen the "KILL WITH MY KNEES" idea y'know XD)

And these are with the massage points if any of you are curious

OMG FANART OF MY SONA TYSM CINNA 🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧

I suppose she has any name that I use online like marama or marusha hehe

JOINT PAIN HAVERS UNITE YEAH!!! ✊✊✊✊

Dammmmmmm marusha looks so cute here I just can't-

@marronje HIHIHIHI I LOVE HER MARAMA ! Does she have the same name as you? I think she's super adorable! I also think our personas hanging out would be silly. Joint pain havers unite!!!

OMG HAVE FUN IT'S SO GREATTT 🫀🫀🫀

If you're reading this and you ship togachako

Go read Carmilla

You can watch the movie of course, but don't waste your time on Carmilla (2019), it doesn't even start to cover the original plot

This was giving me thoughts, and I remembered some special thing about handwriting culture in Japan, so I'll share

Source: “CUTE STUDIES”. KAWAII (“CUTENESS”) – A NEW RESEARCH FIELD by OANA-MARIA BÎRLEA from Babeș-Bolyai University

The text is about development of kawaii culture in 1970s (and I think this suits Himiko so much...)

Kawaii promotes the appreciation of small, stylized objects and of childish or atypical looking characters considered vulnerable for various reasons (size, looks, attitude, etc.).

This culture spread rapidly among students (especially female students), who started to express their feelings through a nonconformist writing style, considered more modern and closer to the Western world: maru ji (rounded letters), koneko ji (“kitten writing”), manga ji (“comic writing”), burikko ji (“imitation of children’s writing”).

The "soft rebellion" of young people implied “sabotaging” the traditional way of writing by adding small, cute symbols to induce positive feelings and combat alienation.

So basically, Himiko's writing in Japanese could look like this (an example of maru ji handwriting style):

(As I understand, the rough translation is – "This is very cute!", the picture is from Wikipedia)

Okay, but I think Himiko has very beautiful handwriting. She would write in cursive very cute and Ochako doesn't have a ugly handwriting but she doesn't write in cursive. I think she would write as legibly as possible

I needed to have my input in the whole fem!bkg thing y'know

I think I found my type of women

(Headcanons below the cut)

Katsuki's face: exactly like her mother's. The person who said that is still missing

Katsuki's hands: scarred. When she was a child, her control over her quirk was... erratic to say the least. Is she still ashamed of that? Yup. That's the first reason why she wears gloves. (Bonding point with Kirishima – check)

Katsuki's gloves: the second reason why she wears gloves is simple – sweat. This is good cuz she doesn't drop stuff all the time just cuz sweat makes it slippery as hell. And no risk of blowing stuff up accidentally is good too.

Katsuki's piercing: a mistake of the youth (peer pressure is shit)

Katsuki's hairstyle: untamed. She braids her hair cuz it kinda looks like bomb fuses (it's important!)

Katsuki's choker: from Kaminari. (that's kinda it. just a present. he surely didn't want to suck up to her, nuh-uh)

Katsuki's chest: flat. Good for aerodynamics.

Katsuki's backpack (in color): very fangirl. A present she treasures hates. The pins are handmade. The aroace ones are on display cuz people can't take a hint. (blowing up persistent suitors is bothersome)

p. s.

Katsuki overall: the cutest. very cute. Makes me love women. I love women and Katsuki of any gender.
