Ranking of Kings
We were browsing through Crunchyroll and this anime had one of the header slides, and my friend said she got this recommended. And a few hours later we were halfway through! This was soo enjoyable! The art style itself is amazing, something simple and yet so fresh. All the different expressions are amazing and just draw you into the moment. The character gallery is massive and yet not to much at the same time, and all the character developments and relationships are nice as well. The story is well followed through, and the music is also spot on and very catchy. This is one anime I will for sure watch again.

Synopsis:
The people of the kingdom look down on the young Prince Bojji, who can neither hear nor speak. They call him "The Useless Prince" while jeering at his supposed foolishness. However, while Bojji may not be physically strong, he is certainly not weak of heart. When a chance encounter with a shadow creature should have left him traumatized, it instead makes him believe that he has found a friend amidst those who only choose to notice his shortcomings. He starts meeting with Kage, the shadow, regularly, to the point where even the otherwise abrasive creature begins to warm up to him. Kage and Bojji's unlikely friendship lays the budding foundations of the prince's journey, one where he intends to conquer his fears and insecurities. Despite the constant ridicule he faces, Bojji resolves to fulfill his desire of becoming the best king he can be.
Hi! Love your art! Especially your Zira animation.
Just wanted to know if you were from Japan. Or if Wit Studio has branches in other countries too and you were an international employee.
Hi ! Thank you !!
Wit doesn't have other branches abroad, I'm an in-house employee in Tokyo. Although I know some people do freelance for japanese studios from abroad now.
As for myself, I'm actually from France ! But I've been living in Japan for a while now
(this is my desk that i like very much 😊 quite an old pic from when we were working on Ousama Ranking. Now I don't use a wacom anymore, i use my ipad + clip studio paint !)
can't quite remember the context of this sketch but i suppose i saw so many different Gaster designs, i decided to hop onto that train too by giving the presumed senior citizen hips and a waist and somehow i am not sorry
