#ryuko redesign

[maddascanbe-blog]

Finally! I will say now that the class girls will likely take a long time as well.

Kagami's first and second looks here are meant to be her pre and post character development outfits.

Buckle in, this is a long (haha) one

Kagami in cannon is clearly designsed to resemble Marinette in a lot of ways, both are of Asian decent and have blue-ish hair and blue eyes. Both have freckles and even their suits share a very similar color pallet. At least Luka was different from Adrien in more than personality.

I didn't want that for my Kagami. I wanted her too look like more than a Marinette clone. So she gets to keep her freckles since my Marinette doesn't have any. Her hair is a darker color instead of a blue, and her eyes take on a stormy grey color. And of course their body types are different, namely Kagami is both taller and ripped.

Ryuko's hair is more blue since I gave the miraculous blue, white, and gold accent to match the weather pattern on her chest. Her hair get's shorter, pinned back and is a bit more wild. It's probably got some static. Little horns and some armor to keep her extra safe as well as further resembling scales. Her suit is closer to an orange shade than Ladybug's cool red. I almost switched her to blue since I agree with the sentiment that the dragon should have been blue. But red looked good too.

I don't particularly like any of the akuma designs for Kagami. I like Oni-Chan in concept at least (hate the name) so I decided to combine that with Riposte to create her initial design. Than she gets a pallet swap and a few thorny details to represent the rose. And Bara-Oni, literally just 'Rose Demon' I ain't creative, when Lila pulls her stunt.

Kagami's personality is very similar to cannon, however her character still has some pretty harsh changes. Kagami has come to realse through Adrien and Marinette's friendship that she isn't very happy with her life. Her mother is trying to live through her, forcing Kagami to participate in fencing and putting pressure on her to perform perfectly in every aspect of life.

This comes to a head when she is given Longg. While sitting in the akumatized mech her mother became, all because she had the audacity to make friends, she actually waits long (haha) enough for Longg to explain the miraculous. When Long explains the weapon he points out that she must be thrilled to have a sword. At which point Kagami was an emotional breakdown and sobs that she doesn't even like sword fighting. That she would rather learn hand to hand combat and that she's wanted to switch for years but her mother refused to hear it.

Longg says her can change her weapon to better suit her, and she get's armor and the abilitly to summon gauntlets when her power activates.

After having this break she and Adrien sit down and try and find ways for Kagami to feel more like an individual without being disowned at 16. Cutting/dyeing your hair and getting a Tattoo are two of the results, and since Kagami already has short hair and doens't really want to go shorter she gets the tattoo instead. Subtly referencing her time as Ryuko in blue (her favorite color). And of course her mother is blind and doesn't know

Is it kind of shitty to abuse your mother's disability to use her money and get a tattoo? Maybe. But that's what you get for mentally and emotionally warping your duaghter to the point where she lies about her favorite color to please you. She, Adrien, and Chloe are in the "Our mom's suck" club together. Chloe will be collecting her for new wardrobe shopping.

Have I redesigned Ryuko before? Yes, which is also what the first one is. But I'm not really satisfied with it, it's not bad but it's too... tight? for my taste now.

You see, I'm trying to make Kagami's suits flowy/not tight in contrast to her civilian look where her clothes are more tight which corresponds to her mother's strictness. So when she has the miraculous she doesn't have her mother's influence on her so her suit (and the hair!) represents that. Or at least I tried doing that.

I think my favorite ones are the third one and the last one. The blue looks so good! The fifth one is also my favorite but it's absolutely not what I was aiming for xd. I guess it could be a suit when she has the miraculous to work for her mother or something.

(I know NOW that it was supposed to be pourpre, not purple, but I got a lil too invested in the color scheme.) These two might be an unconventional duo, but there’s a method to the madness here, I swear. (Not Ryuko looking like a whole new character here oof…)

If the quality of this image is a little blurry, forgive me my internet decided to die and I’m left with faulty 4G that’s actually just 3G 99% of the time.

Anyhoo Kagami! She’s back and redesigned again. Well her first appearance and Ryuko aren’t that different, just refreshed. However her third design is very different.

I explained in a post that Adrien does Kagami dirty in the reboot (and in canon). Since she’s similar to Ladybug in a few ways, a lot of people think she’s Ladybug. Including Adrien. He only befriends her and starts a courtship on the off chance she’s Ladybug. But when it’s revealed that she isn’t, he basically just ditches her. And post that heartbreak, Kagami changes her look drastically to no longer resemble Ladybug. Plus it’s a style she’s always wanted to try.

Also Kagami’s overall story is toned down from canon. Maybe “toned down” isn’t the right words, I’ll explain. Her mother isn’t crazy controlling and strict and she doesn’t work for Gabriel. Tomoe is a rich business woman who’s quite strict and expects the best for and from Kagami, but not to the point of not allowing friends. She doesn’t know Gabriel, she doesn’t work for him, she’s not evil. She’s a single mother who’s doing her best, but not always great at reading the room. Kagami doesn’t have any friends because she’s very introverted, shy and PAINFULLY awkward. She has trouble talking to others, but really wants friends. People think she’s rude and an “ice queen”, but she doesn’t mean to be. She has no idea what she’s doing. Send help.

I also remembered to include Ryuko’s new weapon! Yay me! Just a reminder that all the zodiac Miraculous have musical instrument weapons, and the dragon gets a guitar. Which you can also use as a staff to BONK your enemies on the head. (Edit) In this case, it’s a Shamizen.

RYUKO REDESIGN

holy FUCK i had SO MUCH FUN DRAWING THIS OH MY GOD okay. Here's my redesign of Ryuko from Miraculous! I really wanted to accentuate, I suppose, a more personal design to Kagami? I saw a redesign of Ryuko once where she wore like a hakama and I thought that was neat so I took some inspiration from that.

I was inspired by AKIRA and also Ryuko Matoi for, oh wow, un, unexplainable, reasons. You can see the Kill La Kill sorta undercut hair dye. Also, her hair is a sorta purplish wine in mixture with her canon blue and my original idea of going brown instead like her concept art and deciding both was good.

Also- Don't ask how that jacket/shirt/suit actually works. Jotaro Hat logic. You don't question it. Meanwhile drawing the skirt details were REALLY fun

I hope you like her! it's a bit of a complex design but, hey, I like em

Bonus- My ryuko redesign with the blue color pallet. It's a bit more monochrome than I would prefer but I think with a slight chnage in the hair shade I would be happy. Naturally since the main suit is now blue I changed the beads from blue to red.
