Tokyo Mew Mew

I've recently taken a trip on memory lane with older Anime's that I used to watch as a kid, which were mainly Shojo's. What is a Shojo you might ask? The official meaning says that they are widely known as a genre of Japanese comics and animated films aimed primarily at a young female audience, typically characterized by a focus on personal and romantic relationships. This kind of stuff was right up my ally when I was younger.

I used to watch Shojo's such as Sailor Moon, Mermaid melodies, Peach Girl, Princess Jellyfish, and a few more. Tokyo Mew Mew is a Shojo that I've picked up again recently and I've fallen in love with the characters all over again.

Here we go Again..

I was listening to old songs and ran into a song that I heavily associated with these two characters that I wanted to be together in this particular show. Once I listened to it, I got a wave of nostalgia, and I realized how much I missed the characters. One character In particular being Kisshu,[key-shuu] which I had a bit of a crush on in the past. I started looking up pictures and clips of him from the show( I promise I'm not obsessed, I was only looking for reference pictures) and felt a sudden burst of motivation to draw him. It took me a good week because my motivation could be here one day and gone the next, but I kept pressing on and I ended up liking how it turned out!
