Christmas Illustration 2024!! Thank you so much for all your support this year!! (#^.^#)
Thank you so much for all your support in 2024!
This year's Christmas illustration features the main heroine, Harukado Yua, and her rival, Student Council President Puella, from Yoshibari ♦ Aubade.
The overall atmosphere ended up somewhere between bright and dark—an uncertain mood, really. The backdrop is a Christmas street, but at their feet is something that looks like a restraining magic circle, and the surroundings are clearly distorted in an abnormal way…? Although no onlookers are drawn, it appears they are being displayed under public scrutiny, bound for everyone to see. ( 'ω')
Yua, the main heroine, has hypnotic heart-shaped eyes and is clearly not in her right mind. Meanwhile, Puella, the strongest pro-wrestler Student Council President, seems mentally present but extremely frustrated—there’s no way she would strike such a pose of her own accord… (#^.^#)
There might be some unknown force at work binding them.
Who exactly is making them do this? I’ll leave that to your imagination. It’s a scenario illustration that poses that question. Perhaps it also foreshadows the fact that, in the sequel novel Ysohibari Extra (continuing from Yoshibari ♦ Aubade), these two have fallen into enemy hands and are about to undergo brain modification…?

I’m planning to release a slightly more adult-oriented variation of this illustration for my Milk Plan subscribers in the near future.
Please continue to support this work in 2025 as well, along with my ongoing series Goddess Defeat: Reincarnation of Valanowas!
