Just a pair of unlikely heros of Japanese origins who have at least two other things in common: They both run around 24/7 & their respective villains have "Egg" in their names.
And what better way to celebrate Eggus Christ Day than illustrate the latter for the funni? Well HERE YA GO!
Also yes, reused that Nerdy Kimba/Leo design from that previous crossover pic because he's such a loveable goober!

Was talking some Kimba stuff on Discord and got inspired to do this idea... a little re-imagining that rather than Leo/Kimba carrying around and wearing his dead father’s hide around for guidance he’d instead wear Panja’s claw or tooth on a necklace
Like I get it, I’m pretty sure Tezuka intended it to be the equivalent of carrying around the ashes of your deceased loved ones, but idk. Imo there could have been way less creepier ways to translate that idea rather than literally wearing the skin of your dead dad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Another fun fact no one asked for.
Panjyamon is a reference to Panja from Jungle Emperor/Kimba the White Lion.
Talking about references I was thinking if Hououmon X-Antibody is a reference to Tezuka's Phoenix, but it's probably more of an inspiration from Fenghuang myth than from Tezuka's design.
And there is also Plutomon, I think it's more the general shape that gives me that impression, but it's probably not inspired by it directly either.
I was going to use the Reference Book artworks but they are too small to see anything so too bad, using the card game, Survive and New Century arts.
