I used to think that my favourite character would always be the main character of an anime. But it turns out I actually just like the one who has a tragic past and then goes through even more shit yet still is the kindest soul to ever exist.
It wasn't until I watched one piece and realised I love Sanji more than Luffy along with a denial phase that I made the connection.
I've cried over and over again for these three and they were the only ones I desperately wanted to give a hug. They just hold the same space in my heart.
I don't know why I'm typing all of this out hahahaha I should have just posted the image. Anyways I'll probably be drawing more of these three together. After all, they are my top 3.
Also, I went through alot of work to get their ages before drawing and lucy is around 20 in 100 year quest so thats a relief.
both jinshi and mao mao not being given enough attention and love during their childhood made them emotionally repressed yet so different from each other here we have jinshi who acts like a child sometimes (I relate so hard) whenever he's in his comfort zone or around people he doesn't mind being childish in front of (maomao, suiren and gao shun) and he puts on his 'I'm perfect in every single aspect and idc abt your crush on me' persona and then we have maomao who thinks being empathetic towards other brings more troubles than its worth and doesn't wanna let others see that she cares but she does she acts all tough and shit but she's such softie inside and won't hesitate to do act of services for the people she loves and oh how much I love this dynamic and analyzing things like these
God dude these two scenes and how roxie moves hurt my heart so so bad 🥹
it's like a mix of anger, feral, emotional breakdown, and complete sadness that just fucks me up soooo fucking bad.
it's like she's a pet who got abandoned by their owner but they see them again after years of sadness and depression of them being gone and leaving them like that and all that anger and sadness just manifest's into one bundle of emotion's towards them they cannot control.
i'm sorry but their faces here have me cackling like. ares really just left them there and fucked off on his motorcycle?? all of their faces are a different shade of "oh...so that happened..."
I'm just not gonna post this later I'm gonna post it now bc I love it sooo much <3
