@zexalmonth Day 16 L-Location combined with S-Siblings
There are many Locations that I’d really like to see more of in Zexal, but the one that really tickles me is Kaito‘s and Haruto‘s Home in the Disney core Woods/Mountains
Because why does nobody talk about the possibility of Cottage core Kaito??
I want to see more of that, want to see the inside of their house too
It just all looks so European, which makes me wonder where the Tenjos even come from??
But anyway, I drew them back at their home at night, just on their way back from a little Picknick :3
They are my favourite siblings in the series, because they just remind me of me and my siblings the most
The Kamishiro twins are a close second, but it’s the age gap between Kaito and Haruto, that relates to me so much
I love their unconditional love and support for each other, they’re just so precious 😭💕
Here, have a Soulshipping draft, because I fell down the rabbit hole again while rewatching Gx
Because what else am I supposed to do while having Covid

Hello, Zexal fans! Zexal Month 2024 is just around the corner and, for this year, we're doing the ABCs of Zexal! That's right, this year, our prompts are just based on the letters of the alphabet. Feel free to just use the titles (like A is for Astral) as the prompt or look at the following text for ideas. We can’t wait to see what art/writing/edits/cosplay/etc you produce for us!
If you are joining us for the first time: we have a list of prompts with suggestions attached! They're not hard rules though, so you can freely skip some or combine them. Tag your creations #zexal month 2024 and we'll make sure to reblog them all!
Week 1: Introductions We’re going straight into it this year! For this week, introduce yourself and share with us something you like about our favourite warring factions!

Can't wait to see what August has to bring! -Mod Fla
“Does anyone else here dare challenge the might of the Supreme King?”
Silence. His monsters, not yet dismissed back to their cards, stand intimidatingly over the crowd. Based on his commanders’ reports, there are no others here with the power to summon forth spirits from another dimension other than the singular duelist. And while with a few more years she could have almost been a challenge, she is far from such now.
One man bows. Then a woman after him. More follow, until the entire square has shown deference to their ruler.

As a child, Judai ran away from home before his memories were ever wiped and reunited with Yubel in Professor Cobra's care. He promised to never let anything separate them again, and spent his teen years in America as Cobra's second son.
Now in his final year of school, Judai returns to Japan to visit Duel Academia as the West campus's champion. He's got plans to have a good time and help his father make a statement at the central campus with the Disclosure Duel system, but he doesn't know that his spirit partner, still corrupted by the Light of Destruction, has plans of their own - and that several other people's agendas involve him and Yubel, too.
The two partners must let go of old illusions before they can look at each other with clear eyes and meet on the same page.

The Zexal animation material mega-archive is now available! Click HERE to download it (8.48GB) or click HERE to browse the files on Google Drive
This is a collection of every sheet I've been able to scour from the Internet or purchase and scan in myself for the time being. Huge thanks to Tessie for helping me name and figure out a lot of the sheets! More trivial info under cut
In case it needs to be said, there is no need to credit me if you use any of these sheets for anything - they're not mine! I'm just an animation fanatic doing a little archival! (And a lot of these are scanned by people other than me anyway!)
This collection includes every sheet that features anything notable. A lot of sheets look very similar (for example, shading guides are just base character sheets with added shading) but for archival purposes they're still included, even if they're largely the same. Every reference sheet is named for easy browsing, but if I've made a mistake anywhere, please let me know!
I'll still try and collect more sheets as I keep checking if any go up for sale on sites like Mercari, but I offer no guarantee that I'll have many more scans to offer anytime soon (it is costly!)
You remember that big Gala before the Duell Carnival? I want another one.
I want it as an excuse for Mizael to wear that dress everyone is drawing right now and look gorgeous like the queen he is
Also I want to see flustered Kaito, because he cannot comprehend how beautiful Mizael looks.
Thank you, for listening to my pep talk-
Alright, Bet-
Didn‘t know if you wanted them as Humans or Barians, so I just did Barians because I love their Designs 💕
Is anyone doing free digital fanart? I'm looking for a TomoShipping (Nash x Dumon/Durbe) piece. With Nash sitting on a throne and Dumon sitting/kneeling on the ground either leaning against him or has his head in Nash's lap. Something similar to this picture is what I'm looking for
I found more crack, a really old doodle
