すばらしきこのせかいシリーズ16周年おめでとう！

Happy 16th Anniversary to TWEWY & 2nd Anniversary for Neo! I drew this for a message book project that was delivered to Square today. I'm very grateful for this chance to convey my love to the game staff. This series gave me a lot of inspiration, a true passion project from talented creators that will always be fun and unique even in the future. With or without a sequel, I wish the game staff the best of luck for their future creative endeavors!

The idea of this illustration is "something that will make the creators burst out laughing", which won over my initial idea of drawing something neat and pretty with only Josh xD I'm quite happy with how it turned out, which each of these characters representing how I felt during Neo and how much of a mess I think these higher plane dwellers (plus some sketchy Reapers plotting to intervene and some unwilling human just there to witness it all) make behind the main stage :v

Bonus: Sketch and Lineart.

It’s Trivia Tidbit Tuesday!

When Neku runs towards Hachiko on his first day of the Game, you can briefly spot Joshua in the crowd! This small appearance has been present in every version of TWEWY so far, including The Animation!

In Neo:TWEWY as well, Joshua very briefly appears by 104 on Rindo and Fret’s first day and picks up their pin!

The friendly dumplings all hold hands and create a big round ring They laugh together while making towns on the dumpling star The rabbits wave from the big moon in the sky It takes all the happy and sad things and rounds them up (x)

I really felt like making a starry, cute, food related piece that was lunar rabbit themed. Both out of the spirit of the new year and because I just love rabbits and these types of aesthetics!! 🐰🍡🌙

POV: You're about to get your ass kicked

I drew this last year after finishing neotwewy to practice clean lines and to project wishful thinking I had for the ending 😭

i love analyzing twewy character fashion taste its so fun and easy for the playable guys. its a little harder in neotwewy cause theres way less character specific threads but its doable

#i like to think joshua changing his shirt in neotwewy is like #a reflection of the fashions from hip snake and dragon coture

[summerendroll]

sharing my neotwewy thoughts that felt too mean to post when the game was coming out and people were excited about but tbh i felt its biggest weakness wasnt its struggle to balance out developing the new characters and returning cast which wasnt helped by the fact that the reapers game is no longer played in pairs but in larger teams, or the change from very unique combat to lots of button mashing, but a loss of some sort of individuality. like its echoed by the story itself in what i already said about how you lose some ability to focus on developing characters when you commit to a hugely expanded cast and having more characters around at a time, and the fact that they couldnt quite let it be the new kids story OR commit to the returning characters plotlines both new and continuing.

but like neo looks "better" in the same way gg strive often does where its more polished and everythings kind of sanded down for wider appeal. i dont dislike any of the redesigns except maybe shos but i dont love any of them either. well i liked kariyas actually . BUT overall its just so sad to me how twewy was so focused on individuality and how its a GOOD thing everyones different and theres so many different personalities and fashions and opinions out there and it was so good at getting u invested in characters and the petty problems of minor characters in the rg. and then in neo that emphasis on individuality and on getting to know individual characters is lost immediately. none of the wicked twisters designs communicate all that much to me very effectively. i am so so so invested in the original cast but they just did not hook me well enough with the new kids because theyre immediately overshadowed first by sho then the idea of neku then beat then rhyme and then neku again and also the question of wtf has joshua been doing this whole time to let this happen. and by all the unanswered promises and questions left by a new day

#beat really carried that game on his back. on his. skateboard. carried ti on his skateboard #sorry to neo twewy u just did not do it for me brother #u had big big shoes to fill. but i get the impression the writers just did not have the same love for u as they did ur big sister #or maybe thats just me being harsh. idk. its rough for neo because the original game did SOO much to communicate its ideas #sooo so much

I think it’s really cute how people started digging out my 2021 Josh bday art again on this day. So as to not let you down, here is 2022 Josh birthday art and a very special request from me to you on this special occasion: I'm looking for someone who can help me translate my Composers comic strip into Japanese. 

I know the strip is very text-heavy, my Japanese level is certainly not enough to work on it and it’s gonna take effort regardless. I promised the friend who got me into twewy to at least ask the fandom for some help. While my entire fanwork body is not monetized so I do not have a budget for this, I will be very happy to draw you any of your favourite characters from the franchise (up to two). I know it may not sound like a deal, it may be a long shot - which is why I've forever hesitated to ask but well, here is to a maybe.

Josh’s birthday 1/11 by the way, falls on Samhain festival - a festival to celebrate the darker half of the year during the time of which dead souls can visit the world of the living, along with a few other... things that will sneak through the gates.  It's believed to be the origin of Halloween and All Souls' Day, though opinions may differ. The biggest sight for Halloween celebration in Japan just happens to be, none other than Shibuya.

And last but not least, happy birthday? (HOW OLD ARE YOU ANYWA-)

the next game i plan to play is TWEWY. unlike the other games ive been playing recently i will not be going into this game blind bc that is impossible for me, cuz ive lived with the worlds biggest twewy fan who is my brother. literally have memories from 2009/2010 of hearing the twewy ost from his ds first thing in the morning. he has also told me the entire lore of this game multiple times. i also tried to play it before in like 2016 or 2017 cuz my brother rly wanted me to and he was like 'its shorttt you can do it'. He Was Lying. and i also watched like 80% of his neotwewy playthru.

so im going to try again now as a More Experienced Gamer. hoping to finish before the end of january cuz thats when i see him again and i wanna hv scholarly discussions abt it with him. and maybe ill play neotwewy if i feel like it (i doubt this). for fun i want to list down everything i know abt the game from my brother so after i finish it i can revisit this post and laugh at it

- "What's a meme?"

- i dont actually know what a meme is. i remember this gameplay mechanic confusing me

- everybody is DEAD and this is PURGATORY or something like that. i still dont really understand what the reaper's game is despite knowing abt twewy for like 16 years

- this game is not a week long my brother LIED. i thought the game would end after one week which is why i tried it back then LOL i know that theres three weeks.. i think..

- shiki doesnt actually look like that thts actually the appearance of her toxic yuri friend or something. i remember this Very vividly bc its like the biggest plot reveal from week one and i remember being like WOAHHHH and jaw-dropped and it was so awesome. its still so awesome! im excited to experience that again

- beat and rhythm are hit by a car but the cars look like sharks bc uh.. hm...

- i actually dont know why the enemies look like that. i know theyre like..... Negative Spirit Energy or SMTH LIKE THAT but why they take the form of animals... idk

- Calling..... Someone is Callinggg 🎶

- the music is really good

- EVERYONE IS SO SKINNY ITS ALMOST SCARY

- fashion fashion that mechanic is fun. you need bravery in order to crossdress which gives you epic stats. which i think is very fun!

- also fuck im realizing that this is a squarenix jrpg meaning im gonna have to be planning members stats and all that shit again. and while i do miss doing that, i hope twewy's 2008 (2007?) design isnt too asswater and is actually functional

- THE COMBAT IS HARD i remember having to draw shit with my left hand while my right hand had to tap buttons! like what!!! according to my brother the combat utilizes every part of the ds, even things like the microphone and closing the screen, and is why he likes this game so much. i hope i can like it as much as him

- im nekuuuu and im rude and unfriendly and i cant remember anything and im mean but I'll Become Kinder as the game progresses

- neku chokes shiki??? i think he was trying to kill her??? so he could leave the game or something.. and she was floating? i have levitation powers???

- i dont remember if i get epic powers.. i feel like thats something i shouldve remembered

- i dont know what the math dude does in this game. i dont remember what all the dudes with the wings are called or what their deal is but ohhh i remember them all pissing me off

- THE FUCKING PIN GAME pins??? badges?? bottlecaps??? i dont remember but i remember that minigame pissing me offff. fuck im gonna have to experience squarenix minigames again

- there is so much dialogue wohfuisdhfjk Squarenix JRPG.

- shiki DISAPPEARS at the end of the first week.. for some reason.. and neku plays a second week so he can bring her back. and that happens again for the third week where i think??? beat and rhythm disappears at the end of the second week? but this time neku isnt just betting on bringing his friends back HES BETTING ON THE FAITH AND GOODWILL OF THE ENTIRE WORLD somethinggg like that

- joshua is the new partner for week 2 and he is such a gay boy.

- Mother and father calls me Joshua ohohohoho

- only dead people can enter the reaper's game and if you win you get another chance at life or something?? idk why tho..

- beat and rhythm entered the game bc they were running away from home cuz they have shitty parentsss and then they got hit by a car

- and shiki attempted suicide i think

- and neku can't remember how he entered the game.. oh... so mysterious....

- it was because joshua shot him with a gun

- and joshua is God because this is a Squarenix JRPG

- joshua wanted neku to show him humanity's worth or SOMETHING cuz neku was a kid who had lost faith in humanity or something like that??

- and joshua disappears in the ending i think very ambiguousss

- The World Begins With You....
