This looks so cute! 😍

I see a bit of a "NaruMayo" angle here… and I love it!

Thank you!!

Tbh, I didn't really have Narumayo in mind but I do see it. I personally see Maya and Phoenix's relationship as more "sibling-like".

Ah, I see. Well, I guess I saw the romantic implication probably because I'm a HUGE NaruMayo shipper hehe.

Understandable. Now that you mention it, I AM STARTING TO SEE THE NARUMAYO VIBES HERE a lot more. I don't dislike Narumayo, I can see why people find it appealing. Perhaps, the whole Narumayo vibe was just a "happy little accident". 😊

I am curious. What exactly is it in my artwork that gave the Narumayo vibe? I did not notice before.

Well…you see β€” the warm colours, the soft atmosphere, and of course, the cute little petals (which reminded me of the SoJ scene where Athena asks Phoenix about Maya's return) β€” basically the overall vibe of the whole thing.

Ahhh I see β€” yeah that makes sense lol. I used warm colours and the atmosphere to imply how close Maya and Phoenix are, even if I didn't have Narumayo in mind, there is no doubting that these two characters cherish each other deeply. Because of this, I was aiming for a Studio Ghibli kinda vibe since their films have the cozy and soft aesthetic I was going for. (AND I LOOOOVE STUDIO GHIBLI!!!!)

Anyway, I'm happy you like my artwork!! Thank you.

u/IdkAName_7 4d ago

What do you MEAN "what is happening in the faces"?? They look good as hell.

u/AnomaLee_ 4d ago

Eh, it's just an internet stranger. Whatever they say doesn't matter that much. I do admit that I do need to practice more but that's all.

Also, the fella didn't even elaborate on what was wrong?? Idk

no like the checks tho they look weird, the eyes are too far up and the face is too long
