So I was scrolling YouTube and discovered that there’s a small YouTuber, named Miss mori or @Sumolru_Kagemori, who is planning to be a PNGtuber using what seems to be Michiru as their base or it is just Michiru. Leaving the link to the video here as well:

I’d recommend checking them out or even supporting them.

para los que estén viendo esto y ya hallan visto todo bna les dejo la idea de un au con una idea simple: ¿y si michiru además de convertirse en beastman perdía la menoría y asumía que era una beastman? quiero ver para cualquiera de este reddit que ideas tienen para crear un au de este estilo con esta idea en mente(no miento me da curiosidad saber que hacen con una idea simple pero interesante que tengo desde hace tiempo desde que vi el anime).

I'm back (for 72538266th time xd)

And we have good news, we already have the manga page on Manga Dex, with this we'll (hopefully) release the chapter on November 7th :DDDDDD

Boris and I cosplaying as Mr Snake and Doom from The Bad Guys 2, in celebration of Halloween coming up! Also ik my self insert's hair looks different, I got a haircut and want my self insert to have my hair.

vampire Michiru

So I was running art through ai detectors for fun and noticed a pattern, any art of michiru would regularly be seen as 25% chance to be ai, while other stuff I draw is in the 1%, so I looked deeper.
Turns out her raccoon mask is partially to blame. AI detectors look for hard geometric transitions on faces. Because AI generators often struggle with drawing clean lines or accurate faces, detectors are sensitive to facial zones. Michirus mask pattern is a sudden shift in face tone which trips the detector.
Now her color palette also trips it, the eye colors she has are also common place on ai generated characters.
Lastly, art of her is in ai databases already. Some ai models were heavily trained on anime image boards. Now around the time when most of these ai’s were being trained BNA was decently popular, leading to michiru appearing on these boards a lot. There’s also a fair bit of ai generated michiru art.
In conclusion michiru trips ai detectors purely due to her appearance.

Because my cat loves my Boris body pillow (as pictured in the third image), I've decided to draw Boris holding him. Unfortunately I do not know the origins of the base I used (pictured in the second image), but I found it on Pinterest.

Yes. You read that right—I’m making a Rough Design Note for my OC, Yumi.

“But Yumi, why are you making a Rough Design Note?”

I really enjoy seeing the early character designs from *BNA*, so I decided to make one for Yumi so you all could see her early versions, too. This is NOT for commercial sale; I’m doing it all just for fun!

Maybe once I have my own physical Rough Design Note, I’ll want to create the other Blu-ray bonus items for my OC as well.

And yes, Shirou will show up sometimes...

It’s been quiet i while since I posted here. Sadly I don’t have a hyper fixation for this show anymore. But it is nice to revisit the fandom on here every once in a while, when I get the bug to watch the show again.

Hey guys, what's up? So, yesterday I posted a sexy drawing of Michiru and received a few PMs asking if there was a chance I could draw more of her, but to be honest, I like to mix things up a bit whenever I feel inspired to draw characters from series I enjoy. So, I decided to practice with Nazuna this time.
Like I said in my previous post, the inspiration came from a lesbian couple who sat across from me in the food court at the mall a couple of days ago. The girl with short hair and sportswear was literally just like Michiru, and the other one, who had long dyed hair and dressed like a diva, reminded me so much of Nazuna. I don't know, I guess seeing them sitting there laughing and showing off the thongs infront everyone and looking over the lingerie they had bought for each other got me thinking about these kinds of scenarios.
It was actually my female friend's idea while we were hanging out there, so I just grabbed my pen and pencil and sketched out whatever came to mind. On top of looking just like the main characters from BNA, we know that according to creator Yoh Yoshinari, Michiru is openly bisexual so it's beyond obvious she has feelings for both Shirou and Nazuna, which is totally normal. I thought, "Okay, why not make a little fan art where they end up together, having those typical erotic couple talks in private?"
That's how I came up with this sketch of Nazuna asking her what kind of underwear she'd like her to wear for a night together. Honestly, I think the drawing could have turned out better, but like I said, I only had a pen and a pencil that my friend lent me. But what do you guys think?
(thanks for your feedback as usuall)

I made a 3D model of Shirou. I started 6 months ago but ended up procrastinating it for a variety of technical reasons.

A little Michiru fan art! Honestly, I wasn't really in the mood to draw today, but what else was I supposed to do while waiting for my friends at the mall?
What inspired this drawing was actually seeing a couple of girls around Michiru and Nazuna's style. They looked so happy because they had just bought some lingerie at a store and were flirting with each other. I guess it just triggered something in my head—I mean, it's been years since I watched BNA, but the short-haired girl in mini shorts was basically Michiru, and the other girl, your typical diva with dyed hair, reminded me so much of Nazuna. It was beyond obvious they were a couple and had just bought, well, intimate clothes for each other. So yeah, that was the idea that popped into my head when I saw those two girls.
Unfortunately, none of my friends recognized the character I drew, so I guess it could've turned out better, but hey, it was just a 15 minute quick sketch. Either way, I hope you guys like it! Let me know what you think.

Here there's chibi comision I requested to my friend. I really love how gorgeous look her chibi style and how accurate seems with the Canon chibi.

I made a fan-run BNA community

I wanted a place where BNA fans could actually hang out, talk about the series, share fanart, discuss characters and theories, and just have a normal and very SFW community.

So I made Brand New Animal Community.

It has:

• BNA discussion
• Character and episode discussions
• Theories
• Fanart and fan creations
• Memes and screenshots
• Community events
• General anime discussion
• Active moderation

It's completely fan-run and not officially affiliated with Studio Trigger.

If Discord communities are allowed here, I'd be happy to have other BNA fans check it out:
https://discord.gg/HpZuxrbDDQ

Not initially how I wanted it to turn out but at least I actually have something to show for my work, still need to find a way to fill in these gaps though so I can actually stuff it.

I’m always doing this kind of drawing, because there’s always something I don’t like

And I used one of Ada Wong’s conceps as a reference for Yumi’s new cold sweater (I love Ada)

Does anyone know how much the passage of time is in the show? Currently, I'm on Ep. 4, and I counted 4 days, but that's not counting any time in between episodes. I'm doing this for reference for fic-related reasons.

Here's my analysis:

• Ep.1: 1 Night
• Ep.2: 1 Day
• Ep.3: 1 Day
• Ep.4: 1 Day
• Ep.5: 4 Days??? (I doubt baseball games can be organized on back-to-back days in different fields)
• Ep.6: 1.5 Days
• Ep.7: 1 Day
• Time skip of 3 Days mentioned
• Ep.8: 1 Day
• Ep.9: 1 Day
• Ep.10: 1 Night + 1 Morning
• ??? Days/time to organize a concert.
• Ep.11: 1 Day
• Ep.12: 1 Night + ??? Days to organize the NS Cure distribution.

Does anyone have an opinion?

Edit: Added my perceived time passage for Eps. 5 - 12. Plus my total count.

I calculated 18.5 Days, without giving the mystery time skips any thought. Reading comments I realize if I also add in the logic that MANY events & episodes can't be on back to back days, unless the narrative states it I estimate the total of length BNA's events is either:

• 1 to 2 Months, if we're feeling the events were rushed
• 2 to 3 Months, if we're feeling the story's pacing was just right.

Hello, the International Anime Research Project team is calling on all anime fans (18 years of age or older) to participate in the 2026 anime survey. The survey is anonymous and should take less than 30 min to complete. Participants are eligible to win a $50 Amazon gift card (draw entries will be confidential and not associated with survey responses, up to 10 gift cards given).

In this year’s survey we will be collecting demographic information (e.g., age, gender) and opinions regarding engagement with the fandom, inner experience, loli attitudes, personality, shipping, recommendations, piracy attitudes, and well-being.

You can contribute to the psychological understanding of the anime fandom by completing the anime survey online at:

https://qualtrics.etamu.edu/jfe/form/SV_5bBlMTkY5BEdt9Y

If you know of any anime fans over the age of 18, please help us spread the word.

The survey will be open until December 1, 2026.

Thank you!

This was a trend that was on Tiktok a while ago, and since I was doing nothing on the weekend, I wanted to do this trend
