My Inner Mangaka - Part 2

Chibi is a type of Japanese comic art that directly translates to "small" or "physically deformed". This depiction of characters/people is so amazingly cute, I simply cannot. xD

There's a complete guide to actually drawing chibi and it's absolutely fascinating so check out this video if you are really interested in this form of animation!



However, all talk aside, I decided to draw a chibi for Tohru Honda from the popular manga series Fruits Basket by Natsuki Takaya. Out of all the shojo anime I have watched, I love her style the most (after Clamp) because it's very natural but yet so ethereal. I actually think that Fruits Basket was an anime written specifically for me. I mean, if someone, anyone, can explain the animal situation in this manga to me logically, I will be in awe of that person for the rest of my life. 



Just to clarify, Fruits Basket is not drawn in the chibi form. Anyways, here's a little Tohru (with Kyo) everyone :) 

(PS: I cut out Yuki because he would just be a wheel.)
