Lot's WiP comic and general talk

[popplio25]

It looks like milk, bread, potatos, and some type of meat? Probably mutton or something.

Looks like various meats, steamed buns, a stew, some type of jellow, wine, some type of egg dish, and the rest is unknown.

: O

ok :>

That must have been very embarrassing for them to sing in front of all those people in those outfits haha. :p

believe me, it was ^^'
hence what lina said at '' 1:05 to 1:09 '' of the video

lina shot off a dragon slave out of sheer embarresment, after finding out what the spell was really for....

But the song was nice!

yeah, it is ❤️

I've only seen what you've directly shown, but I believe you. The anime needs bad guys for the heros to stop after all. :p

yeah, the stuff shown in the link is what he's like : o

I see what you mean about him not always being bad, he'd probaby be alright were it not for that...

yeah, i know __ __

[popplio25]

They could just be genderless like Arceus. :p But either way I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

i'm thinking about making a god, before i make hydra god *or whatever the hydra's gonna be, god or otherwise*
this god, i think, is the creator of all things.... (kinda like how the lord of nightmares in slayers is the creator.. the mother of all things) the world needs one of these...
i mean... i gotta use my unused audino sona for something, don't i? :3


(just in case you wish to know about ''LON'' - https://kanzaka.fandom.com/wiki/Lord_of_Nightmares )

edit at 4:40 pm: based on Eostre/Ostara , the Celtic/Norse Goddess of renewal, spring, fertility and rebirth. i couldn't find anything to do with creation... so..

she's never seen... only mentioned... ...
& she's heard only one time....

Having a creator character can be nice, especially in the kind of story it sounds like you're wanting to do with Buttermilk. You could maybe make the hydra character the one Kousei sends to punish evil like the fly villains after Buttermilk and friends fight them?

i mean... i gotta use my unused audino sona for something, don't i? :3

Didn't you use your Indeedee(f) for this instead, though? But yeah, may as well find a spot for her too!

(just in case you wish to know about ''LON'' - https://kanzaka.fandom.com/wiki/Lord_of_Nightmares )

Neat, thanks! ^^
Edit: I read a bit about her and she doesn't exactly strike me as a very nice super powerful lady haha. 😅

Okay, first of all, Bunn! And second, she reminds me of the chocolate easter bunnies that I've seen in shops during spring! (I wonder if she also makes chocolate eggs... >.>?)

oh! you're right ..... ... *blows rasberries* where was my mind? 🤷‍♂️

i went ahead & edited that in my folder :>


the indeedee's next, then, i feel :o

Neat, thanks! ^^
Edit: I read a bit about her and she doesn't exactly strike me as a very nice super powerful lady haha. 😅

yeah, but, in that episode (the final episode of s2), she brought lina back after gourry says his confession of love for her 😍

Okay, first of all, Bunn!

a super powerful bun!

And second, she reminds me of the chocolate easter bunnies that I've seen in shops during spring! (I wonder if she also makes chocolate eggs... >.>?)

no... no she doesn't make chocolate eggs, i believe ... :o


edit at 7:04 pm: let's edit all that... i want a creation lord that stands on two feet
meet lord haruka, the creator, the mother of all things

she's taller then she looks...

as previously mentioned: she's never seen... only mentioned... ...& she's heard only one time....

i'll make kousei into different kind of god... i'll keep her hare/bunny apparence though :>

ummm.... let me introduce my possible new four-some main crew? :3




did i ever introduce galvin? i don't think i did, did i? :o
& i thought about renaming ''buttermilk'' to ''Paprika'' cause it sounds soooo much cuter ^^ & i think it suits her :3

edit at 11:09 pm: & i think that ''chacha'' is cloud's big sister :>

I'd say Indeedee makes for a good choice even accidentally, so if it wasn't for what you'd said about wanting to use your Audino-sona before, I wouldn't have even thought it was a mistake.

yeah, but, in that episode (the final episode of s2), she brought lina back after gourry says his confession of love for her 😍

I suppose even not-very-nice-seeming super powerful ladies can be kind on occasion. :p

a super powerful bun!

no... no she doesn't make chocolate eggs, i believe ... :o

Ah, too bad... But... I suppose that makes sense. :p

as previously mentioned: she's never seen... only mentioned... ...& she's heard only one time....

She seems... Pretty young. But I suppose with her meant to represent new life and creation that makes sense. Very cute drawing of her by the way.

i'll make kousei into different kind of god... i'll keep her hare/bunny apparence though :>

Maybe you could make her like a temple priestess or something? Either way, looking forward to finding out what you come up with!

Awesome! I love a good adventure party!
Cloud looks adorable in this, and I want to say I've seen Galvin at least once before, but it's also possible I'm mixing him and another one of your characters up in my memory. (looks very familiar though, for sure)
I like the name Paprika too, but that also opens the door of potentially renaming her whole family after various spices. :p

gourry said in that episode ...

*i'll take what he said in subtitles.. cause that's the first version i saw of the episode... ok, he said that in the eng dub too :>*

maybe you're stubborn and sort of perverse... maybe you trick people with your charm... maybe you look down on anyone who's weaker then you, but...

but i.... but i need you!

😍 😍 😍

*ok, the last part is a touch different in the dub... but it's more or less the same :D *

I like the name Paprika too,

i think i will rename her to ''paprika'' 😍

yeah... i don't think that's gonna happen :3

as for the hydra (yamata no orochi) monster, even though i haven't drawn him yet (i'm having trouble thinking how... he's far too big to draw __ __ ) ,

i've decided to name him similerly, but also not similerly like how the first mazuku(monster) in slayers s1, ruby eye shabranigdu in slayers is named.... ( https://kanzaka.fandom.com/wiki/Ruby_Eye_Shabranigdu )


his name: venom blood dragon, sukinowa ( the bringer of catastrophes, the incarnation of chaos... )

edit at 7:43 pm on 20/9/24 - but then.... he feels more like ''zanaffar'' ( https://kanzaka.fandom.com/wiki/Zanaffar?so=search )
i'll show him when i've finished him.... :>

i drew this :D *the screenshot is of amelia & the episode that the screenshot is from is the final episode of slayers s3 (try) *

here's cloud... without her markings... cause her markings get in the way so i removed them ....
i think it's for the best... she's so much cuter without them :D


*i've decided she has flower band-type things on both ears *

*i also wanted to give her slayers style facial markings :>... you know, the facial line markings on their cheeks that you can see on amelia's cheeks*


edit at 10:39 pm: i decided to give that forest a name... it's name is now: MossyOtter Woods .... i used this to choose it :3 - https://www.imagineforest.com/blog/forest-name-generator/

& the city where cloud lives... it's name will be: maybe , the city of ''Sylvaboro'' https://www.chaoticanwriter.com/random-name-generators/fantasy-city-name-generator/

i updated souta's bio a little....

i say ''trickster'' cause when i think of ''trickster'', i think of xellos in slayers... he's sorta a trickster... https://kanzaka.fandom.com/wiki/Xelloss#Personality
benign trickster...?


to be honest... i wasn't sure whether to reference xellos as he debuted in ''next'' (s2) & i don't know where paprika's story is gonna go.... will it be 1 season or two seasons?
but i did, anyway :3

Those are nice names, though maybe drop the 'boro' part of that one and just have it be Sylva? It sounds a bit prettier to me, anyway.

Well, stories like this don't really work in seasons to begin with. Shorter comic book like stories would be in a series, longer stories would be light novels, and they would all go in arcs regardless. What you need to decide on at some point is how you want Paprika's story to be one or a few really long parts, or a bunch of more 'episode like' shorter parts? Then you can figure out how many arcs you want to do for her.

i really meant if it really was a anime... but thanks :3


but you know.... the slayers anime started off as light novels :D

That looks SO cool!

thanks :D he's a pain in the neck to draw, though...

it got updated recently (still in progress)

Rinlyn's a much better name to me, good change!

And so could Paprika with enough time put into it! :p
Speaking of Slayers, have you read the light novels before? I think that if you really want to find good direct inspiration for Paprika, those might be a better sorce than the anime.

thanks :D he's a pain in the neck to draw, though...

I'm not sure if you intended that to be a joke, but it sure reads like one given just how many heads he has hahaha! XD

kanzaka is supposed to be working on vol 18 of the light novel... but people are saying that he's been playing video games 😑 i haven't read them yet nor do i have them yet... but kanzaka.... please put your game down & get on it! ....😅

no, wait... wait, wait.... this one post on reddit suggests he's playing Genshin Impact...
