Sorry, everyone! Yet another work in progress. :blushes:

The first anime I ever saw--the one that started it all--was Revolutionary Girl Utena. I was... nine. The subtext of all the questionable relationships throughout the series totally and completely flew over my head, though looking back and re-watching the series, all the drama and intrigue is pretty interesting. :giggle:

Anyways, Miki was always my favorite duelist, mostly because he was sweet and pure in a world where everyone else seemed to be so jaded. When I saw him make this pose in one of the earlier episodes, I knew that I just had to draw him this way--it's the quintessential Miki pose!

Admittedly, I used a frame from the show as a crutch because I couldn't for the life of me get his posture just right. I apologize, but I thought I should be honest about that. ((My bodies usually look atrocious. That's why this looks so good... ^^; )) I did everything I could to make it look different from the actual frame though, so I hope you all will accept that. :heart:

Just one last thing--the opening to this show is without a doubt my most favorite anime opening sequence ever. I think it's the way the visuals are perfectly choreographed to the music in the second half, but I just really love it. It's a bit dated, but check it out anyway.

Excellently drawn! I think this one will be one of your proudest when it's all done. And This guy seems much more legit then some of the others you like who don't wear shirts. :XD:
Even so, this makes me want to take on fencing. :D
