Ok i know i'm like half a month early but i was thinking about what the nsr devs would have chosen if they made halloween remixes of each battle, complete with the artists getting costumes accordingly like in the winter update

b2j would be a witch and a knight, pretty standard

DJSS would probably work out as a headless horseman complete with punkin head

Sayu would basically be a ghost specifically one from japan but it'd have to be 2 kinds of japanese ghost to account for the manfish phase

i got nothing for Yinu :(

1010 would ironically to their thematics be some ghost pirates though i question if neon j's head in this variation should be a nautical compass in place of a radar monitor

Eve is definitely an undead cleopatra i mean you saw how her building looks like

unfortunately i got nothing for Tatiana either though i guess the mystery man mural would be him as the phantom of the opera [it was different in the winter version, it should be different here]

Meant to reply to this earlier since I wasn't planning on drawing for it but I forgor lol.

Anyway! I like a lot of these ideas!

What would be kinda funny is if May was the knight with a guitar sword and Zuke was a witch with drumstick wands. Like I know a lot of people would make May the witch and Zuke the knight, but I find it funny and more instrument fitting if it was the other way around :3

Love the idea that Nova's costume would be like, super casual kinda like his holiday outfit (it literally just looks like a bathrobe lol) so him having a sheet over his head and being a ghost seems a lot more plausible. HOWEVER! Because this is a game and so the design aspect should be put to a higher degree, them having just a shittily carved pumpkin on their head or even just a plastic pumpkin (heck even an upside down plastic pumpkin bucket would be funny).

For Sayu, if we are going for Japanese ghosts, there's a few we could go for depending on if you want something more scary or just generally creepy. Also if you want one ghost the entire time or to switch it up with each phase.

-So one thing could be the Yuki-onna, which is a kind of snow ghost kinda (sometimes like a snow vampire) or will lure people to a frozen death. Kinda would have more snowy environment with things getting colder and darker as you get to the next few phases.

-Then there could be a Kappa which is like a human-like turtle creature. This one is more related to water, as they tend to stick in rivers. Also the site I am using says they have an affinity for cucumbers so that could be a replacement for Sayu's trident.

-I also like the idea of a Gashadokuro, which is a giant starving skeleton, being used for the neon light phase, like the deep sea version because I just think it would look cool to see a glowing skeleton lol.

-For the actual final phase, the reverse mermaid, Sayu could instead be a Chochin Obake (a paper lantern ghost) instead of a fish. Kinda like how Sayu is a handheld bell for that form during Christmas.

-Each form for Sayu could be a different folk lore from Japan (or even from each country of the Sayu Crew, so like one from India, one from Japan, one from Singapore, one from Vietnam, and one from China).

-Other than that, you could just go with the kinda standard and (what I think is) the most well known Japanese ghost which is the Kuchisake-onna or "slit-mouthed woman." The problem with this is that it might be too much for younger audiences which is what Sayu is aimed at (also probably not something the actual NSR devs would put in the game).

-And for a more general look, you could just have Sayu be a more scary looking mermaid that turns into an angler fish in the final phase (oh! or ze could be a scarecrow! with the trident being a pitchfork and the final phase being either a crow or like a vegetable like a pumpkin or something lol)

Okay, Yinu. I had 2 ideas right off the top of my head. One was Yinu wearing calaveras makeup, which is usually worn on Día de Muertos (which is right after Halloween) or Yinu being a like forest elf or something. I also don't really have much of an idea, same with Mama as she should probably match Yinu to some degree so I don't see the calaveras makeup being something for Yinu to wear as it's also not really a costume and Mama wouldn't want to wear it as such (Yinu probably wouldn't either but I can also see her wanting to wear it since it is so close to Día de Muertos).

If you want to get silly, you could have Mama in a Slenderman costume lol. Her being tall and either not having a face because of a mask or only having eyes could be creepy. Don't know what Yinu would wear. Maybe something generic would be good, which is why I think the elf or maybe a fairy of some sort. I can actually also see Mama being a banshee for some reason (probably because they are related to the death of a family member which kinda fits the whole Yinu and Mama deal with Papa being dead).

When it comes to 1010, I do agree that they should be wearing a group costume design. I kinda like the idea of ghost pirates with Neon being the ghost captain. I don't think you should change Neon's head for this, specifically because they didn't change it for the holiday outfit (just gave him a beard and a hat) so it should probably stick with radar head. MAYBE if you really wanted to change it you could go with a diving helmet, oh wait. Nevermind, I think I misunderstood you lol, you meant change the radar on the screen to a nautical compass, not change the whole head! Lol, yeah I think that would look nice, but probably not something that would happen. (or 1010 could be male succubus, succubi? whatever, something like that as they are supposed to be like sexy idols lol)

I can definitely see the Cleopatra vibe you are talking about. Though I can also see her being some kind of spider queen or playing off of Greek mythology where she is wearing a combo comedy and tragedy mask while always having 4 arms out and maybe even having 4 legs as there is the myth that humans were made with 4 legs, 4 arms, and 2 faces but were split up by Zues (also realized after typing that that Zues and Zuke are really close to being spelled the same, that could be another thing that ties the costume to Eve as she felt split after Zuke left her lol).

I actually have an idea for Tatiana! She could be a gargoyle, like fully grey color scheme with more cracks on her clothes as well as her normal body cracks. She would even have wings on too! But as you fight her in the final fight she turns into a phoenix because of her fire and the wings making her look like one!

Mystery Man being phantom of the opera I feel fits. I don't actually know anything about the phantom other than he's like... mysterious? Maybe, idk. It might be too similar to Eve's Greek costume if that is something you care about. I can also see him as a werewolf for whatever reason. Probably because I think he gets a mustache in the Christmas mural so I can just see him getting hairy because of that lol. Otherwise, I don't really have any other ideas for him.

You make me realize I should probably be planning some new costume ideas for each of the characters for another Halloween picture! I definitely don't want to reuse costume ideas even though it wouldn't hurt anyone to do so, and I was a kid who went as a fox for like 8 years in a row so it wouldn't be completely uninspired to reuse some costume ideas lol.

Turned on nsr to revisit the christmas levels and forgot that consoles got an encode edition update... I'm actually so emotional going around and looking at everyone's fanart. I can't think of any other game that's done anything like this

#for context in no str*ight roads the devs had a thing where like. hey. submit fanart and itll be in the game #and they did! over 500 pieces of fanart are in the game and you can put any of them on your guitar case #my arts in it! we hacent gotten to that area yet but #actually seeing it all in game artists of all ages and skill levels having their work literally on display and congratulated #it has me so emotional

recovery update (please read?)

OKAY OKAY OKAY I know most of you don't care but I do so SHUT THE FUCK UP.

today we had a pretty long conversation and it was really nice! i probably shouldn't get used to that... im only really going to text her one more time today and then probably spend the week... not doing that (i wouldn't but i already said i would and i don't want her to think im like dead or something!!!)

i never really thought about this until today, but i don't know if this "occasionally talking" thing I want should happen. im like obsessed with this girl! not in a creepy way, ive never like stalked her socials. she's just so fun to talk to, and if i allow myself to talk to her im never going to want to stop. i think she should just be the kind of person i text stuff like "happy birthday :)" or "merry christmas ☺️" or other things along those lines.

luckily the relationship ending isn't bothering me that much anymore! like ive said before, i never really needed to be in a relationship with her to enjoy her company or to love her. the relationship was really nice, and admittedly things going back to the way they were sounds pretty fuckin cool. but im okay with this. i just don't think im going to be completely okay with it if i don't let her live her own life and if i don't leave to live mine. god i hope she's not reading this. being friends sounds wonderful, but i just don't know if i can.

today while we were talking she asked if she could ask me a question. so obviously i said yes. but usually when she does that, it's for a serious reason. and that just scared me to death. if i wasn't doing this well in my recovery i would've had a fucking anxiety attack. i wasn't able to breathe properly until the moment had passed, and i just felt. dizzy. and my mind was running wild! it was all like "she's using that tone. this is serious. what if she's changed her mind. what if she decided she doesn't want to reconnect ever again? what the fuck will you do then?" and it just fucked me up. im okay now, but it's terrifying how a simple change of her tone can affect me. and i just cannot be around that until im fully recovered.

and even though my recovery is going well, that's going to take a long time. the simple changes of her tone terrify me, and the thought of simple phone calls with people who aren't family is enough to make me hyperventilate. this whole situation has seriously damaged me. and i don't think i can be around that, i don't think i can be around her until this damage that has been done is repaired. so maybe instead of waiting a week, i should wait until these fears are gone.

on another, more lighthearted note, i have not stopped the self-care challenge. im still going strong (although im running out of things im allowed to do...) and it feels great! I'm replaying a game I adore (NSR), I reset my island on ACNH (i wasn't aware i was a boy when i started that one, that's why) and i just took a bath. overall, im doing well! thank you for reading and caring <3

If NSR had another 'Christmas Remix' like update. I want it to be called 'Fable Remix'. Which is basically the NSR characters dressed up as Fairytale characters. All I could think about is Eve's design referencing 'The North Wind and The Sun', Yinu's design referencing 'Pinocchio', and 1010's design referencing 'The Steadfast Tin Soldier'.

Neat! I have no idea what any of those are other than the Pinocchio one!

I always thought if they were going to do another update they would do like a summer vacation update or something like that!

But the fable ones sound cool too! The music itself could be more lullaby-like to them!

I at first thought you meant fable as in fantasy, which could also be cool to see too! And that music could be more uuuuh, viking-like? Medieval? I don't know the word for it, but like something you would hear with like lutes and fiddles and stuff that are really old.

Don't know what the summer remix songs would sound like. Probably not that different, especially since the holiday remixes literally just added a shit ton of bells to the songs as the most obvious change lol.
