年末

こんにちは!

気がつけば、2025年も残りあと2日ですね……。

本当に、時間が経つのはあっという間です。


Hello everyone!

Before I realized it, 2025 is 2 days before it ends … time really flies in the blink of an eye, doesn’t it?


今年は自分にとって、かなりたくさんの挑戦があった一年でしたが、

ありがたいことに、最終的にはすべて乗り越えることができました。

その過程で本当に多くのことを学び、とても意味のある一年になったと思っています。

みなさんの一年はいかがでしたか?

少しでも前に進めた一年であったなら嬉しいです。


どんな形であれ、今年も本当にお疲れ様でした。

そして、いつも応援してくださっている皆さん、本当にありがとうございます。

更新がほとんどできなかったこと、本当にごめんなさい…!

まだ少しだけ残っているお仕事を片付ければ、また以前のように少しずつ活動的になれると思います。

来年は、自分の創作と2冊目のイラスト本にしっかりと重心を置いていきたいです。


This year came with quite a lot of challenges for me, but thankfully I managed to get through them in the end. I learned so much along the way, and it turned out to be a truly meaningful year. How was your year? I hope everyone was able to take at least a small step forward. Either way, we all worked hard this year—and thank you so much for all the support you’ve given me. I’m really sorry there haven’t been many updates…!

I still have a few final commission to wrap up, I should be able to become more active again. Next year, I really want to focus fully on my own creations and my second illustration book.


キャラクターたちの大まかなデザインも、だいたい固まってきました。

登場するのは全部で5人になる予定です!


The overall designs for the characters are mostly decided now—there will be five of them!



衣装については、もう少し調整やブラッシュアップをするかもしれません。

自分が「これだ」と思えるデザインに辿り着けたらいいなと思っています。


中央にいる魔女さんについては、

少し大人っぽくする案も実は考えていました。

でも最終的には、人形のようなミステリアスさを大切にしたくて、

少し幼く見えるデザインを選びました。


The outfits might still be adjusted and refined a bit, though. I hope I can find designs that truly feel right to me.


As for the witch in the center, I did consider making her look more mature at one point. But in the end, I wanted her to feel more like a mysterious doll, so I chose a younger-looking design instead.




テアについても、立ち絵をアップデートする予定です。

2冊目のイラスト本用に、テアの全身立ち絵2.0を作りたいと思っています!

(中のランジェリーも描き直す予定です)


I’m also planning to update Thea’s character art—I want to create a Thea Full-body character art 2.0 for the second artbook! ( I am planning to re-do her inner lingerie too)





今いちばん悩んでいるのはミレナです。

いろいろな案を試してみたのですが、なかなか「これだ」と思えるものに辿り着けず……。

もう少し時間をかけて考える必要がありそうです。

(ぜひ、どの案が好きか教えてもらえると嬉しいです!)


Right now, the one giving me the most trouble is Millena. I’ve tried quite a few different ideas, but somehow none of them feel quite right yet. I think I’ll need a bit more time to think this one through. (Let me know which one you prefer!)



そして今年の大きな出来事のひとつが、

マレーシアのComic Fiestaに招待していただき、ラオーラさんと一緒にお絵描きができたことです!


一緒に描いたりお話ししたりできて、本当に楽しかったです。

またいつか、こうして一緒に描ける機会があったらいいなと思っています。

ただ今回は本当に緊張してしまって……

言いたいことがたくさんあったのに、頭が真っ白になって全然言葉が出てこなかったり、

後半はイヤーモニターがヘルメットの中に落ちてしまって、ほとんど何も聞こえず、

相手が何を言っているのか想像しながら進めていたり……。


それでも、無事に最後まで終えられて本当によかったです。

ステージの上でテアとラオーラさんのイラストを見ることができた瞬間は、

言葉にできないほど感慨深くて、とても感動しました。

本当に幸せな気持ちで、最高の一年の締めくくりになりました。

心から感謝しています…!


Another highlight this year was being invited to Malaysia’s Comic Fiesta and getting the chance to draw together with Raora!

I was so happy to draw and chat with her—hopefully we’ll have the chance to collaborate again in the future. I was extremely nervous this time, though… there were so many things I wanted to say, but my mind kept going blank on stage. To make things even worse, my in-ear monitor slipped into my helmet, and I could barely hear anything for most of the latter half, so I was basically guessing what was them saying....Still, we managed to get through it safely in the end. Seeing illustrations of Thea and Raora on stage was an indescribable feeling—it was incredibly moving and made me so, so happy. It was truly the perfect way to close out the year. I’m deeply grateful…!

(ちなみに、私です)

(This is me btw)




帰ってから、イラストを少しだけ描き直しました。

たぶん、もう少ししたら完成させられると思います!

After I got back, I also refined the illustration a bit. Probably will finish it later!





私にとって2025年は、人生の次の段階に進んだ、とても大切な一年でした。

今年経験したいろいろな出来事や挑戦は、

きっとこれから前に進むための大きな原動力になると思います。


いつも作品を好きでいてくれる皆さん、本当にありがとうございます。

2026年からは、全力で創作に向き合っていきます。


ファンのみなさん、2025年も本当にお疲れ様でした。

新しい一年が、さらに素敵なものになりますように。

それでは、また来年で。

良いお年を!


For me, 2025 was an incredibly important year—a year where I stepped into the next phase of my life. I feel like all the experiences and challenges I faced this year will become the driving force that pushes me forward from here on. Thank you so much to every single person who chooses to support and like my work. Starting in 2026, I’ll be giving it my all in my creations.


To all my fans: thank you for your support throughout 2025.

I hope the new year brings you even more good things.

So then—see you next year, and Happy New Year!

Thank you so much for the support!! Feel free to ask questions during the stream i will try to answer !

I just started supported sensei this month so I might be late. I am a beginner inspired by you and stared learning drawing as a hobby. I fell in love with your style. The coloso course is too expensive for my country currency unf cause of this I can't learn directly from you so I hope fanbox is enough to support you. I am trying to learn female anatomy right now and watching your youtube stream vods for hours having really fun. I am looking foward to every update.I hope you're well and healthy. I just wanted to comment to express my feelings. I hope I don't bother you with this comment.

Ren

Thank you for your support! Wish you have a wonderful and successful year in 2026 too...! I am so happy to hear your love for Raora, lets continue to support her together! (Thank you for voting the design for Milenna-chan too..!)

Nekojira

I apologize if the translation makes the sentences sound strange. I'm truly happy to see your wonderful illustrations every time. I look forward to your continued success in 2026. Also, seeing Raora-chan, whom you oversee, actively and joyfully at work has become a part of my daily life. Thank you, Sensei! Please take care of yourself. By the way, personally, I like design A for Millena-chan.

モデちゃん

I am grateful for all of the support...! Seems like B received the most vote I will try to go with the path of B and refine it! Thank you so much and wish you a happy new year!

Nekojira

Thank you so much..! I hope my course is able to help you! I personally is thinking of B as well, I will try to refine it a little more, thank you so much! Happy new year too!!

Looking forward to seeing Nekojira's new book next year 030,and we will keep create Thea's and her friends fan art.(◕ˇ∀ˇ◕) and sometimes when I drawing Thea face. the sketch is fine to me. but after I color it .it is not too well XD gonna need more practices =w= ohohoh and I prefer B about Millenas outfit,bc it can emphasize Millenas cute belly(only my personal opinion) (*^▽^*) (looking forward to see Thea's new inner lingerie.in a low voice)owo

Dlfgan

Thank you sensei! The highlight of the year for me was watching your coloso class. I am do very grateful for you and your teachings. For the outfit I like b and c best. B gives me the same universe vibes as Thea. I can't wait to see what 2026 brings. Happy new year sensei! 🖤

Thebunh3ad

I am able to learn a lot from you sensei! Thank you for this wonderful year. I was always super happy to see new illustrations from you. I‘m thrilled we are able to give you our opinion on Millenas outfit. I personally think b. and c. Look best.. b. might be a bit too fluffy though. I think it depends a lot on what she is working or doing.
