Gallery | Ryouma Ai – Sekainohate de Aimashou | 

Fanart for Sekainohate de Aimashou! A TFTG manga by Sun Takeda that seems to be fairly obscure, has only been fan-translated, and one that I really enjoyed! It’s about Ryouma, a boy who selflessly saves a stranger’s life – A stranger that turns out to be an otherworldly Prince who rules over multiple other worlds. To ‘reward’ this act of kindness, The Prince makes Ryouma… his bride! It’s a decision that raises conflict from all sides, from potential contenders to the throne, political rivals, and naturally, from Ryouma himself!

It’s just really fun, with exceptionally quirky and different characters that all grow and learn over the course of the story and, through all stages of their lives, are just fun to see match wits with each other – a story that goes to the silliest of slapsticks, plays in the perverse, and also dives into some darker stages of its world.

Not released in the west, only available in Japanese stores, and there’s fan-translations online.

Tried to capture Sun Takeda’s style, but found myself finding great difficulty as my own habits kept creeping in. Also in trying some manga style stuff, which I haven’t played with yet despite using Clip Studio so much. Good practice!
